We have really enjoyed our one night stay here after flying in late! Resort fee covers bike rentals and daily morning yoga, both of which we took advantage of. Bike trail is right here! Some of the rooms are on the smaller side, but storage is plentiful and well thought out in both the bedrooms (under bed storage) and the bathroom. The on-site restaurant is fantastic for breakfast! We loved the breakfast burrito. Staff have been super friendly. Rooms have AC and nice fans to keep you cool - bed and pillow are a little bit lumpy but still comfortable for a good night's sleep! Pool area is a bit small but the grassy lawn is so nice, and you have the beach right here! Nice big hot tub, too. This is not the Ritz Carlton, more like a Courtyard, but its a well thought out, comfortable, and friendly place with great value!

Kauai Shores is one of the best values for an amazing stay on Kauai. The location is phenomenal, and the well-appointed rooms make it the perfect base for an unforgettable vacation. Kauai is by far the most picturesque of the Hawaiian Islands, so you’ll want to get out and explore (skip the mega-resorts that try to keep you on property!). For those low-key days, Kauai Shores has just the right mix of amenities: bikes, a pool, a hot tub, direct beach access, a laid-back ambiance, and a wonderful restaurant serving three meals a day. In the evenings, the bar comes alive with a fun nightlife scene. I’ve stayed here half a dozen times, in different rooms (I especially love the ground-level walkouts), and it’s always a fantastic experience.

Great vibe and location for the price! Beautiful grounds. Great pool, hot tub and beach. Beach has big waves so not for snorkeling. Location is perfect for getting to the north and south side. Rooms are updated and air conditioned. Lava Lava club is on the beach and adds to the relaxed vibe. Music every night is wonderful. Lots of families and people of all ages. Would stay again and highly recommend. It was magical. Sunrise was beautiful every morning and yoga on the beach is included. Also parking was easy with valet.

There are many Hotels to chose from on Kauai. My opinion is that the Kauai Shores Hotel is the best. Small and relaxing, peaceful Hotal and grounds. The remodeled rooms were large, and comfortable. The location is convenient to the Airport …

Check in went pretty quickly, the front seat staff was really friendly and attentive. Our room was really clean and it smelt clean! We absolutely love the lawn area here! The hotel puts out lawn games, the restaurant has great drinks, and …

We stayed here back in 2019 and came back in 2025 because we loved it so much! Having the beach right there and the lava lava beach club a stone throw away from our room is what brought us back. The service is wonderful with the front desk concierges always being willing to help with whatever you need and are just a text message away. We loved the room renovation that they completed in 2024. The rooms were modern and comfortable. The grounds are beautiful with all the beautiful plants. Don't pass up the opportunity to stay at this hotel if you want somewhere in the middle/centrally located between the north and south shores. It's truly a gem!

Priscilla Harris★★★★★

What a gem! Loved the 2-story buildings vs high-rises, nice layout right at the beach with pool and spa handy. All the staff were pleasant and helpful, attentive to the beautiful grounds, particularly appreciated their daily attention to raising & lowering the flags. Kid/family friendly, all quiet by 930-10 pm. Valet or self-parking worked well with our rental car.

We just came back from 4 nights here with our young kids and really enjoyed our stay. Our room was very clean, the sunrises were beautiful, and the staff was very helpful. We highly recommend families with young children to upgrade to the Deluxe Kitchenette Rooms (request first floor). Plenty of space even with the pack n play they provided us for our 18 month old to sleep in. A lot less stressful having the bathtub to wash the kids, room for our food in the fridge, easy to walk out the patio door to explore, easy for kids to see the chickens walking by outside, near the parking lot so easy to load/unload (bring a sound machine in case of car noise), and away from music from Lava Lava Beach Club, which was lovely when at the restaurant but we had our kids sleeping by 6pm local so more ideal to be away just in case. We stayed here years ago before kids and enjoyed our stay both times, including access to Lava Lava Beach club, sunrise on the beach, and good central location between North and South. I’ll say the hotel beach is best for enjoying the sand or wading in the water. I’d recommend only adults go in the water here with caution, not kids as it can be strong. Waves were bigger but I’d have been comfortable here this visit (August-September) as other adults did swim, but when we stayed years ago (June), the water was really knocking people over and pulling us in even when just wading in the water. It was also very convenient being next to Coconut Marketplace to grab food. Overall, great stay and highly recommend Kauai Shores for the wonderful value it provides!

We absolutely loved staying at Kauai Shores Hotel! The location is perfect, the grounds stunning and the service was amazing! We had a beautiful second story room with a view of the garden, pool and ocean. We enjoyed having the Lava Lava Club within a 3 minute walk from our room as well as complimentary valet parking. We will return here hopefully in two years! Thank you so much for your hospitality and Aloha spirit.
