6/10 Good

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.

10/10 Exceptional

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.

Very friendly staff, nice and quiet. Off the beaten path. Fairly clean, pretty dated motel style hotel, but the staff were very nice and caring. Hotel was quiet, other guests respectful.

10/10 Exceptional

This was a last minute reservation due to a flight cancellation. We were so happy they had a room for us.The bed was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. The bathroom was spotless and the shower was nice and hot with great water pressure. We enjoyed the complimentary breakfast. It's a very quaint place. I enjoyed the historical scrapbook in the office.

Raquel, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My wife and I honeymooned at the Kauai Inn and loved our stay. The landscaping and views of the mountain (and stars at night) were amazing, and it was so nice to wake up in paradise. The cats and peacocks wandering the grounds were fun, but the roosters can be annoying for light sleepers so remember to pack earplugs. The staff were super nice and made sure our honeymoon was magical, even giving us a complimentary bottle of champagne to celebrate! The buildings do show some age, but that is to be expected for a 130 year old inn. Overall the rustic setting and wonderful landscape really helped us get into the island vibe though, and we look forward to coming back for an anniversary celebration.
a rainbow on our first morning!
lots of furry feline friends
lots of wildlife on our first morning, very different than the mainland!
great view from our room's patio

Great place to stay! Very quiet and laidback. Very home like feel to it. Staff were all very friendly and helpful and all seemed to really enjoy their jobs. The property was beautiful and well taken care of. If we ever go back this will definitely be the place we stay!

10/10 Exceptional

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.
