Marriott's Kaua'i Beach Club, hotel in Lihue

Located on Kalapaki Beach, this Lihue resort offers accommodations with free Wi-Fi and fully-equipped kitchenettes. A large outdoor pool area, spa facilities and 6 restaurants are located on site.

We love the beach, accessibility to the rest of the island and the incredible gardens. I was so impressed as we watched daily the diligence and thoroughness of the staff to clean the grills- amazing!

Tip Top Motel, hotel in Lihue

Located in Lihue, Kauai region, Tip Top Motel is situated 6 km from Wailua Falls. Located around 1.3 km from Kalapaki Beach, the motel is also 1.5 km away from Grove Farm Homestead.

It's a motel. You'll have plenty of parking options, the shower is hot and the room is clean. Bathroom will have soap and shower gel with one towel per person. When checking in after 2:30pm they'll tell you the room number and leave the door open for a self check in. It's more expensive than usual motels, but that's just the Hawaiian price. It's still one of the cheapest options. My Fitbit recorded the best sleep I ever had although I'd say it's a usual bed. Generally would recommend and stay there again.

The Royal Sonesta Kauai Resort Lihue, hotel in Lihue

Featuring an outdoor swimming pool, the The Royal Sonesta Kaua'i Resort Lihue is next to Kalapaki Bay and the 18-hole Kauai Lagoons Golf Club. The hotel offers 4 restaurants and a full-service spa.

poor service feels like a factory, no personal or human touch. nothing complimentary: not even water(7$per bottle), no kettle, no bathrobe, no slippers, no room service at night, no toothbrush glass, two paper cups for 2 queen beds, only 2 teabags, nothing in the fridge(even payable)….and the most incredible: 32$ for a breakfast “buffet”(only 4 items!) and a charge for more than one cup of hot water for the room!!!!to say the least: an overall very unpleasant experience for almost 700$ a night! on top of all that, the swimming pool was not even usable

Not far from airport. On the ocean. Beautiful gardens & lovely rooms. Bikes were great to use. Close to food options. The area under the beds to put large suitcases was fantastic.

    Be prepared for higher prices than you may be used to.

    Be prepared for higher prices than you may be used to. For example, a pineapple at a road-side stand was $12. I purchased one back home a week after returning from Kauai for $2.18. Fortunately, there is a Costco located in Lihue not far from this unit. Having a kitchen in your lodging during your stay in Hawaii is key to saving money. You can still have poke every day if you want, but by buying it at a store rather than a restaurant you'll save big time. Also, having a car is imperative because the key sights are so spread out. Lihue has breweries, distilleries, fish markets, and grocery stores (Costco, Times, Safeway, Target). All sights on the island are less than a day's drive from Lihue.

    The location is a few minutes from the airport, Walmart and the beach. Everything was clean and the staff was great. Coffee made in the lobby from 8 to 11 am. The kitchen had a small fridge with a freezer comp, hot plate with some pans and everything needed to make and eat small meals. Hot water, comfy bed, towels and soap. AC worked great. Recommend the stay if you need to be by the airport or on this end of the island.

    Lihue is a small working town that serves the tourist industry and the local population. They have rush-hour traffic problems., which I experienced, and the traffic problems on the island are growing. That said, the locals are friendly, they want us to visit, and I felt safe wherever I went. Plenty of amenities.

    Close in shopping at similar prices to what we pay at home.

    Close in shopping at similar prices to what we pay at home. This was a private unit so you need to buy your own toilet paper if you run out (front desk won’t give you any). Safeway is close with a Starbucks, food trucks abound (do try them), Kona’s fish and chips are sooooo good! Don’t miss the museum down town. Waze directions app is amazing at getting you around. Costco is close, so is an Urgent Care. Don’t worry if you leave something home, you can easily buy it there.

    the airport in lihue so it is easy to get to. most folks stay in kapa'a, which has many more food options. lihue has good coffee (it should. coffee is grown on the island) and a nice beach at the marriott hotel. it is a convenient place for exploring the island but is a town. it is not a resort location. good kuwai museum in lihue, tho. i recommend the museum. just don't stay at the tip top hotel. it is a dive,

    This was our first time in Kaui and we only stayed 4 days, then flew to Oahu. We could have stayed longer in Kaui, there is so much to see and do. We really like to drive around the island and find places and things to do. Its definitely more of a day adventure island. It is beautiful. I had a hard time finding something affordable to stay at, and the Royal Sonesta in Lihue ended up being an affordable option, and turned out to be a great option. Although close to the airport, you dont feel like you are. We dont really hang out at the resort so it didnt matter to us where the hotel was however this ended up being a great spot as we were right in the middle and can getting to either side of the island did not take long

    We love, love, love this condo and the entire property. Awesome location right next to Kauai Beach resort, use of their 4 pools was included, though not necessary, as we had a lovely pool and spa right at the condo. Loved the privacy of our own condo, free parking, grounds were beautiful and very well cared for. Villas have 30 second to 4 minute walk to the villa beach, depending on which unit you are in. Condo itself is adorable, and the location was perfect for trips to Lihue (to stock up), and beaches north, east, south and west.

    We were looking for an inexpensive place for one night before checking into the timeshare. Kauai Palms was on the list of inexpensive hotels so we didn’t have high expectations. We were very pleasantly surprised and impressed!! Very quaint, cozy, comfortable and had a lot of character! Will DEFINITELY book here again, probably INSTEAD of the timeshare!!

    The staff is so friendly and helpful. We were trapped in quarantine by late results, and our own hotel wouldn't take us. The Kauai Inn staff gave us a place to stay, late check out so we could wait for the results, and a discount when we were trapped for a part of the second night. They were so supportive and made being trapped in our room bearable.

    The kitchen was supplied with almost everything you could ever need.plenty of glasses, mugs and dinnerware. It was immaculately clean. The location, Lihue, was the perfect base for driving around the island, and there was a beach across the road with restaurants and bars right there. Highly recommended.
