    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

    The "grand canyon" was beautiful. The flora was beautiful.

    The "grand canyon" was beautiful. The flora was beautiful. Too many resorts spoiled the north island to be able to enjoy it. The island was flooded with people and cars which is not what I remember from a maui visit many years ago. I felt sad for the long time residents to have their way of life spoiled by so many of us visitors and condo owners.

    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.

    My husband and I really appreciated the position of the hotel (close to the airport and easily accessible from the north and from the south. The place is also extremely quiet. We loved all the equipment available to borrow for free (beach towels, snorkeling gear, wakeboard, ...) For being a continental breakfast in the US, what was included in the price was really good. The chance to get tea (with different tastes) and coffee whenever one wants and for free is another plus!

    The place is perfection is you have kids. We travelled with our 5-year old son and the pool was his favourite part. You really cannot beat the outdoor pool area. On top of that, the rooms are huge with tons of space. We stayed at the Sheraton for the first part of our vacation, and are so glad we chose Royal Sonesta for the rest of it. Absolute best money value for the money and we will be staying here when we come back!

    We appreciated how close this hotel is to the airport. We flew in late, and since check-in is only until 8 PM, the staff sent us a message through Booking.com about which room was ours and that it was unlocked with the keys inside. This was the cheapest option we could find in Kauai that wasn't the one hostel. It was easy to park in the gravel lot. The maid staff did keep the rooms clean and were respectful.

    Great location for someone looking for ease of access to stores, airport, and 30 mins to south side and 50 mins to the north side. Great if you want a central location for a week of exploring all parts of the island. Also nice and quiet (no roosters) and couldn’t hear any neighbors either. AC units in windows. Full kitchen and washer/dryer in unit. Plenty of space - was larger then expected.

    Tip Top is local. I have lived on Island, owned a condo in Kapa'a before, and if the Marriot is your flavor of tea then go for the cheesy and expensive digs. Here is the truth.. if your on Kauai on vacation how much time do you expect to stay in a room? Well kept up, no bugs at all. The restaurant is a landmark in Lihue. I wish we had the same here in my town!!!

    The location was central and was a great starting point to explore the island. We enjoyed staying on the second floor in a well-furnished and clean room with quiet surroundings. It is within walking distance to restaurants like Hamura Saimin, and a five minutes' drive to Walmart. The hotel was decorated very nicely and homely. Would definitely come back again!

    We loved our short stay at Bayan Harbor. The staff who was very helpful and courteous accommodated us to check in one of our condo early to drop off our stuffs. The 2-bedroom condo is spacious for a group of 4 persons. The kitchen is fully equipped to fix a meal if you want to. We would stay at Bayan Harbor again if we visit Kauai in the future.

    The room was clean for the most part, this is more of a motel than a hotel though; you do not get most of the basic amenities... including hair dryer, etc. We only went there to sleep for one night (all other hotels were booked or triple the price for that night) and we were able to sleep ok.

    The location is perfect for exploring the island, being close to the airport and making it easy to explore the north shore and Waimea Canyon. Additionally, there are good restaurants nearby and the great Lihue beach. The staff were very friendly and helpful, which we greatly appreciated!
