Lihue Resorts

So many pool options

Non swimable oceanfront

I liked the free shuttle to and from the airport. There's also a free shuttle from the resort to a shopping center in Lihue. It was helpful to go to the grocery store there and get snacks instead of solely relying on Resort food, which was good but it gets pricey. The property was big and not overly crowded. It was my first time on the Island (February 2016) so I don't know if crowds change during the rest of the year. The staff was friendly and helpful anytime I had requests/questions.

You absolutely need a car unless you plan to spend the entire time lounging at the resort. I did manage to walk along the beach heading North to Lydgate Park. From there I was able to hike even further North to Kapaa and the Kauai Eastern trail. I absolutely did not mind the walk but it is a looong walk (more than 10 miles). Also, there were a lot of hotel taxes. Not sure how their prices compare to other areas of the island, but I'd look elsewhere when I visit Kauai again. I didn't have a car but there where even more taxes for every night of having a car.

The room was large and exceptionally clean. Enjoyed the private verandah off our room with beautiful plantings creating privacy. Lovely pool area and continental breakfast. Staff were very attentive and because our room was ready, they were kind enough to let us in much earlier. They have SPECIAL SPECIAL rates for all of Kauau's activities. You'll enjoy this boutique hotel. We'll certainly be back.

Towels for pool were too small and worn. Fluffy towels are good.

Very unique, quaint hotel. Clean room, very friendly staff. It was nice that there were washers/dryers on site for laundry

Slightly off the beaten path, if you care about that (I don't). A/C unit was very loud. I had to shut it off, because it kept waking me up

Room 1190 and the staff.

The shower head was low. I,m 6'4" :)

Pool was great.

Too many young children.

Fantastic place, excellent and friendly staff.Quality dining and wonderful location.

Having to leave.

Beautiful grounds...well designed...incorporated gardens/views at every turn....self parking & in room internet included...departure lounge allowed post check out showers before late flight...friendly helpful staff...nearby cliffs with walking/hiking path

Beach is not safe for swimming....good for surfing

Facilities are more intimate than the neighboring mega resorts (Hyatt / Marriott). Top notch service with great amenities. Rooms are well appointed and the beds are some of the most comfortable we'd ever slept in (and we travel A LOT). Pool is quiet and very relaxing. Beaches are steps away and provide a relatively quieter experience than the surrounding beaches.

Restaurant is overrated and overpriced. Just tries too hard to be something it isn't. Pool bar is wonderful, but drinks are a bit pricey ($14-16 avg)...that said, they are delicious and the bar tenders are great (shout out to Jamie!). Not much to complain about here, this resort it top shelf.

amazing room, location and view

Poor landscape and amenities and infrastructure is too old.

Loved it. Nice people. Nice rooms. Nice facilities. Wanted to lay in those beds all day. Thank you!

The location was great and we wound up in a garden view room which was really nice.

Front desk staff was not great.

Location

My flight didn't leave until 10:30pm I was only able to extend my checkout until noon.

Staff at the Cliffs was great!!!!! Always happy and helpful. Location is great do not stay on first floor if possible.

The room was outdated, carpet was very old, doors had duct tape holding the bottom. Refer had rust on the top. Obvious long time rental because no owner would stay there. First floor with one crappy 14 inch fan. No A/C which is great when there is wind.

Great location,attentive staffs,very clean hotel and excellent standard of furnitures and appliances. My family enjoyed the stay and met our expectations. Surely will come back on this hotel on our next visit to Kauai island!

Pricey but worthied and besides it's Hawaii, popular tourist vacation place!

Everything! The greeting by the staff when we arrived (Hotel Employee was one of our favorite people working there) the surroundings, the putting green, pools, activities...wish we had stayed longer than 1 night!

Great price, great location (walk to the beach, to the pool, to Poipu village and Kalepaki Joes), kitchen had everything I needed, loved the complimentary mai tai on check in and the bottle of wine in the condo, also the free wifi.

Only had decaffeinated tea bags! Would have liked a small carton of milk rather than the coffee creamer powder....

The pool was good for small children.

The furnishings are somewhat dated.
