    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 landed on this property after landing in Hawaii to find out beautiful Maui was on fire and we couldn’t travel there for our 10 anniversary as planned (we were married there). Staying here proved to be the best choice we made. Beautiful in every sense. Pool is amazing as are the staff! Rooms are super comfy and well appointed. Right on the beach as well if you prefer. Breakfast is great if you get the breakfast package. Close to the airport (free shuttle) yet you wouldn’t know it. Super quiet. We’ll be back for sure!

    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!

    The staff were so friendly and helpful! Loved the oatmeal bar in the morning with all the yummy toppings. Our room was perfectly clean and comfortable and having all the extras you can borrow from reception was a definite bonus (beach towels, beach equipment etc.) And as for all the people on here complaining about the chickens - if you have a problem with chickens crowing you shouldn't come to Kauai, period!!

    Top location, close to airport and Walmart. Motel has a restaurant with great coffee, value for money breakfast ( huge variety) and most importantly it is the place where locals eat, which is always a good sign. Charlie, the Vietnam war veteran, who lives in the motel ads extra charm to the place. He has great stories and loves to have a chat.

    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.

    Great location near airport. Clean. The bathroom is a bit small. Not a lot of space to put toiletries. Bed OK. I would hope it was not so soft but for 1 night it was alright. Was close to restaurants so you could walk.

    The hotel property is very well maintained. The pools and common areas are clean and well manicured. It is close to Lihue and the airport and right on the beach. As a resort, this ticks all the boxes.
