Kauai Beach Resort & Spa
5/5 Excellent
"Check in and check out were easy and quick. Staff from time of arrival til check out was exceptional. Everyone is friendly and willing to answer questions and even time to just talk. Layout is beautiful and the 3 pools as well as the slide and sand pool are amazing. Grounds are kept clean throughout the day. Access to the beach is easy, just steps beyond the pool. Tiki bar is awesome, 2 TVs is a bonus as well as great local radio station playing. Shutters has good food for dinner time and Naupaka has great breakfast. They also offer dinner as well just never ate there for dinner. Easy access for parking as well which is covered also so you don’t have to worry about interior getting hot from the sun. Overall a wonderful experience that both my wife and I enjoyed and would stay here again without any delay. Mahalo to the staff again for a wonderful time and Aloha. "
