3. Ocean View/Beach/AC/Pool @ Islander on the Beach

Waipouli

"The place is beautiful designed inside, so well thought out. The galley kitchen had everything needed. The view of the pool and ocean are also excellent. I only gave 4 stars due to a noisy AC unit which couldn't be fixed during our stay, but our host was very attentive to try and get people out to fix it ASAP. The shades are also not great if you like to sleep in as they let a lot of light in. And the last suggestion I have is to add a deadbolt or chain so we know a previous renter and code...

Top Waimea Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Kauai Wailua Bay, HI

10/10 Excellent

"Location is a great central spot for most the island. Since the hurricane a few places and things non accessible but from where we stayed it was a 30/45 min drive to all the beaches and food possibilities. Hotel has great staff and fun amenities. Walking paths close by to for beach or running. Great spot for sunrise as well. Beach is 2 min walk for a great view every morning"

Kauai Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay at this very first hotel in Kaui’i. Room is big and has some local element. Staff are welcoming. Nice coffee and tea selection. Breakfast is simple but good!"

The Royal Sonesta Kaua'i Resort Lihue

10/10 Excellent

"Great interaction with staff! Kai’s Bar has excellent customer service!! Mahalo nui loa for the hospitality! We LOVED the pool area, and with the brown water advisories in place, we were SO glad we booked The Royal Sonesta simply for the incredible pool! we ate lunch at Kukui’s restaurant and from the fruit plate to the burger and BLT we ordered, everything was ‘ono! Nice that Dukes is less than a 2 minute walk from the resort. DEFINITELY eat at Cafe Portofino Italian Restaurant next door to Dukes. We chose them for our 13 year (dating) anniversary dinner and it was worth every penny. **We did have an incident where the “guests” in the room next to us #1905 were SCREAM-FIGHTING, slamming into the walls, and at one point the male subject opened and then SLAMMED the hotel room door. How, idk because it’s hard as heck to “slam” a hotel door. They’re literally set up NOT to slam. Anyway, I called the office and security was sent up IMMEDIATELY. Not a peep after that, thank goodness. I strongly appreciate the response of staff. We don’t pay to come on vacation to listen to a bunch of drunks fight with each other. Drink responsibly folks, you’re supposed to be adults, so act like it. Also, so VERY DRUNK man was screaming from the balcony of our building too at one point prior to the other event that woke me up out of a dead sleep. Overall the stay was great but do be aware that people can’t hold their liquor and this place in paradise is no exception to that. Just be aware."

Plantation Hale Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Such a great place to stay and just a short walk to the beach. Perfect!"

Ko'a Kea Resort on Po'ipu Beach

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were absolutely wonderful. We came on 10/1 so after the hurricane so the beach was closed but everything else was delightful"

Sheraton Kauai Coconut Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The Sheraton was our go-to when we evacuated Poipu due to hurricane Lowell. They were very accommodating providing food, water, etc even when no power was available in our room. Can’t say enough about how sweet the staff was during our stay, even though they were extremely shorthanded."
