The property is cozy and nice. The road to the town is under repair and won’t be ready for a few months. The only way to get to the property is around the town where the road is not very great.

My only complaint is that the room was not cleaned on a daily basis. They “refresh” the room daily which is them bringing you towels and throwing out the trash daily. They only fully clean the room on the 3rd day. I did like how they allow you to rent free beach chairs, towels, and snorkel gear at no cost.

The property is secluded down in the mountains and there is so many chickens and cats running around. It feels very local in comparison to a place like Princeville. There are great spots to eat tucked away and 5 minutes from Target and Costco and about 10 from a great Luau

Convenient for what we needed

The hotel was clean, comfortable, and in a convenient location. One thing to be aware of is that there’s a public park behind the property where some people seem to be living, using the bathroom as wash house. It didn’t directly affect my stay, but it might be something to consider depending on your comfort

Stayed here for 7 nights for business and pleasure. We really enjoyed the atmosphere at the hotel and setting. Got a really great Kauai experience. The staff was really nice and helpful and we loved all the animals on the property. Cats, chickens, and peacocks made it fun. We are animal lovers and got attached to a few of the cats and hard to leave them behind. We hope other people will ebjoy them and feed them too.
