I booked this place solely based on online reviews, and it completely lived up to the hype. The location was extremely convenient, the staff was professional and welcoming, and the amenities exceeded expectations. A truly excellent experience, easily deserving of five stars.

My stay at Kauai Inn was absolutely amazing! The staff was so kind and welcoming, and the whole property had such a relaxing and peaceful atmosphere. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, and the location was perfect for exploring the island. I loved waking up to the beautiful scenery and animals every morning. This hotel truly made my trip to Kauai even more special. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the island!

Check in staff were helpful and incredibly knowledgeable. Quick check in with a normal key, not key card. One clean beach/pool towel available per day. Phone charger, cords, small snacks and drinks available for charge to your room. Free Keurig coffee and a wide variety of teas available all day and night right outside the front desk. Continental breakfast included bagels, pastries, fresh fruit, cereal, milk, juice, yogurt, and applesauce. They have so many plumeria trees and hibiscus bushes on site, as well as peacock/peafowl, chickens, and a loving kitty. The room was relatively clean. Some of the window sills were dusty but not a problem for me! It’s an older looking property and the bathroom sort of reflected that in that the cabinets were a little beat up, but the mirror was modern and had different lighting settings- I loved it. The shower water pressure was perfect, and the shampoo, conditioner, and body wash were silky coconut scented. Great! The AC was loud at first but I quickly adjusted and it actually helped me to fall asleep. The mattress and pillows were mega comfy! Refrigerator and microwave in the room were convenient. If you’re looking for a fancy, resort-style stay for vacation, go elsewhere because this place is better for a laidback, comfortable home-feeling stay. My partner and I loved it and will be going back anytime we visit Kauai. This truly was a great place to wake up at and come back to after a day of driving and adventures.

Quiet, so peaceful. The staff is helpful and nice. The room is a little bit old but serves the purpose. Beds are surprisingly comfy , water pressure is good. Kauai Inn serves continental breakfast, but I wish they have boiled eggs. Overall our stay was pretty nice.

Our stay was amazing from beginning to end! This is a truly family-oriented hotel with very kind and friendly staff who make you feel welcome right away. The organic breakfast every morning was delicious, and they provide everything you may need during your stay, including coolers, towels, and beach chairs, so you don’t have to bring extra items with you. The rooms are comfortable and have everything you need; although the property is older, it is very well maintained and full of charm. Parking was easy, and as an Expedia VIP guest, we were pleasantly surprised with a wonderful bottle of wine and even got to choose the type we preferred, which made us feel very spoiled. In the evenings, the live music creates such a relaxing and beautiful island atmosphere. The birds and roosters around the property add to the authentic island vibe that you experience all over the island. Everything was extremely clean, and whenever we needed towels or anything else, the staff brought it immediately. The shower water pressure was excellent, and the shampoo, shower gel, and hair conditioner provided were a great bonus. Thank you for everything and for making our stay so special!

This was my first time on the island. I’m so happy that I stayed at Kauai Inn! I enjoyed the live music in the evening, and Beautiful Hawaiian music played all day. The grounds were well kept, the room was clean (albeit the bathroom could use some updating) but the furniture was nice and the bed was very comfortable. The continental breakfast was nice coffee was good. I didn’t mind the chickens and roosters honestly I don’t think you can get away from them on this island. the peacocks were so beautiful to look at. Staff was kind and gave me good advice on restaurants and things to see. they also loan out snorkeling equipment, beach chairs, and towels. If I come back to Kauai, which I hope to I will be staying at the Kawai Inn!!

I researched all of our options for a night stay near the airport. The Kauai Inn had the best reviews. We can see why. It is very clean, quaint and the staff are very accommodating and helpful. It’s been here since 1890 but is in great repair. There is a nice breakfast with sweet fruit, bagels, croissants or muffins, cereal and coffee. Lots of wildlife running around-peacocks, chickens, cats and roosters. The bridge to the airport was washed out but is repaired now so let your driver know.

We had a wonderful stay. Elton the front desk staff member was so welcoming and gave us some history on the Inn and Kaua’i. He was so helpful and explained all the amenities. The hotel has a relaxing vibe. Music at night by the pool was a nice way to end our nights. Morning breakfast and all day coffee was really great. I would stay here again and bring my kids.

Kaua’i Inn is amazing among all the resorts and hotels this is one where hospitality matters. Everyone is welcoming, and willing to be accommodating allowing recommendations and being able to enjoy each others company. Really the meaning of Ohana exists!
