It’s a very chill laid back stay, the staff was excellent. It’s not going to blow you away with beachfront views or an exquisite restaurant, but the rooms are clean, they provide a good breakfast, and it’s close to the airport

What a great place and staff. I feel lucky to have found this great inn. We met the nicest people, had live music by the pool in the evening and a great continental breakfast before departing the next morning.

Kaua’i inn was very clean, conveniently located, quiet, and comfy. Loved that they had quite a few sweet “property cats” that loved to receive some lovins! They had a nice breakfast that consisted of coffee, pastries, fresh fruit, and yogurt. They also lend beach towels which is nice but they also have a washer and dryer to wash your own if you bring it (or clothes).

Loved the property and the charm. while it was dated everything was clean and everyone was nice. loved the live music only downfall was only one way in and out of the property due to road construction (nothing the owner could control). Definitely would stay here again.

The Kaua’i Inn is a charming older hotel surrounded by gorgeous views of the mountains. While the building is showing its age, the owners do a wonderful job maintaining the original character of the property. Compared to other hotels in the area, the Kaua’i Inn is a tremendous value that still manages to offer its guests an exceptional experience. Next time we return to the island we’ll be sure to return to the Kaua’i Inn.

The Kauai Inn is a little out of the way and not as modern of most popular hotels. But, it is located in a beautiful out of the way location with the friendliest of staff to receive you and help in any way they can. It is relaxing clean and almost picturistic scene.

The setting was tranquil. They have peacocks on the property that also gives it an exotic feel. The Inn itself is a throwback to the Elvis era - it’s old-timey and cool. The front desk was very accommodating. And the cherry on top - we came back from a long day of hiking and exploring to Star Wars playing on a big screen under the stars! Great way to cap off the day!! We’d go back.
