The Royal Sonesta Kaua'i Resort Lihue
Awesome location, beautiful property, gorgeous grounds, clean beach, walking distance to food, massive pool. We had an amazing time. Only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 was because of the food - overpriced and not that great at the hotel. We ate elsewhere most of the trip.
