On the South side, Koa Kea is a great place to stay after you stuff yourself with delicious fare at Red Salt. The East coast is where you’ll find the most options when it comes to great food, from the Hukilau Lanai restaurant to Art Cafe Hemingway. Enjoy your stay at the Kauai Coast Resort at the Beachboy or Pono Kai Resort if you enjoy a relaxed, laid-back atmosphere.
Families with children often desire affordable accommodations, so you might want to consider the Aqua Kauai Beach Resort on the East side where there is live entertainment, beach access, cultural activities and several swimming pools designed to be kid-friendly. Other family-friendly hotels include the Westin Princeville Ocean Villa Resort on the north side, and the Villas at Poipu Kai on the south side. You’ll also find a wide range of villas and houses complete with bedrooms, fully equipped kitchens and other amenities that make for a comfortable “home away from home.”
Passionate about the great outdoors? Those who are into hiking, fishing and exploring nature often enjoy camping out. You’ll find multiple camping areas on the West coast in state parks. For those who love nature but prefer a higher level of comfort, you may want to consider the North shore where there are hotels to accommodate you.
Now for all of you beach lovers! Lots of people who vacation in Kauai spend the most time on the beach, soaking up the sun, swimming, snorkeling, surfing – you name it. If this is your passion, you’ll find great accommodations at the Marriott Waiohai, Koa Kea, or Grand Hyatt on the South shore. On the North shore you’ll want to check out the Westin Villas and St. Regis, or those less costly such as the Hanalei Bay Resort and Makai Club Resort, both located a bit further inland.
