    Kapaa is often overlooked for the northshore and Poipu.

    Kapaa is often overlooked for the northshore and Poipu. It is actually the pulse of the island and you will run into more locals here. Restaurants are conveniently located and a wide variety at decent prices.

    Kapaa is a great central location.

    Kapaa is a great central location. The traffic is bad, but most people drive with the Aloha spirit and let you merge in front of them. I would stay there again but definitely avoid booking anything through Booking.com! Finding a reasonably-priced place to eat is a real challenge, not only in Kapaa but everywhere on the island. I spent almost $100 for two of us to eat at a Mexican restaurant.

    We chose Kapaa because of it's proximity to the beach and to the Hindu Monastery which we visited multiple times. Turned out to be a great choice because it also seemed quieter compared to the beach crowds we saw in Poipu or Hanalei/Princeville. There's a grocery in walking distance to the hotel, small stores as well in a strip mall, great restaurants (the top rated Mexican restos are in Kapaa) all at fairly reasonable prices compared to what we saw in other parts of the island.

    The hosts, Carol and Les, were wonderful. We couldn't find a cab or Uber to take us to the car rental facility (by the way, don't even think of not having a car in Kauai). They took the time to drive us there. They gave us a tour of the garden which is beautiful, made us aware of the local places to visits and eat and were generally very friendly and pleasant. You could not ask for better hosts.

    I liked the large room with high ceilings, the king bed, the little lanai and the ocean view. The service was very friendly with lots of Aloha. I loved the great price we got booking on Priceline. I also loved the convenience of the open parking lot, with parking included with our stay, along with the Longs Drugs right next door and the convenience of the location in Kapaa.

    This is our favorite location we have ever stayed in Kauai. Being able to walk 20 steps to a perfect beach is unbeatable. The hotel provided a complementary crib for my 1 year old (very helpful) and was walking distance to the marketplace with multiple restaurants and an actual market (which is great because you can’t get a rental car on the island right now).

    We had an oceanfront room, which I would highly recommend. There is no air conditioning so an oceanfront room is a good choice for that reason as well. I have been to Kauai 14 times and have stayed at Kaha Lani every time but one. The view is amazing. Centrally located. You do not hear the traffic (just the ocean and the roosters :)

    Location and staff were excellent. They experienced some unexpected weather the week before our arrival but made unbelievable progress to get things back up and running. Little details in Coco B were very thoughtful like fresh flowers everywhere. The bed was the most comfortable bed I've slept on in any hotel/inn/B&B style environment.

    Ideal location on the beach. Many restaurants and supermarkets within walking distance. The town of Kapaa offers also many options at a 5 mins drive. Located on the east coast, it’s a very good base to explore the island (north shore is 30 mins drive, the canyon is at an hour drive). The pool and the yoga classes are very nice !
