We wouldn't stay there again. For $50 more we could have been at the Marriott in Lihue.
Pros: It was on the beach, not a great swimming beach, though. The grounds were nicely landscaped. It was a very nice setting and well kept.
Cons: Lugging suitcases up 3 flights of stairs. No bellmen or elevators.

Great views from the room.
Pros: The view from our partial ocean view room was to die for. We enjoyed having coffee on the balcony and enjoying the beautiful view. The room was clean. Great location: close to the airport and to the public beach. It was nice to have coupons for coffee at Emua coffee place: they have great coffee.
Cons: Very dated furniture. Cracks on the ceiling. The beach is not safe to swim because of the high surf, but the lydgate beach is just around the corner.

Easy. Relaxed. fun
Pros: Layout of hotel and proximity to ocean as well as free movies.
Cons: 1) upgrade to facilities needed - resort and amenities are tired and dated, always needed to park next door or in the shopping centre behind the property;
2) given the ocean is so close it would be great if doors could be locked slightly open so you feel safe to keep them slightly open while asleep...

Good location
Close to a lot of things.
Cons: staff were at times aloof
No early check in
Parking can be competitive at night
no one is looking after the cats that roam the property, while other places we have stayed in during our time on the island were looking after their cats.

Pros: The location, the facilities, access to the beach, the pool, the bar, and the laundry facilities.
Cons: The construction on the parking lot is a huge bummer, no spaces available after 7:00 p.m. The mango lemonade was good to awful, depending on the bartender who was making it. It wasn't available our first day because there was no mango, which is imported from the mainland in a carton of concentrate, although fresh mango is grown on the island, and I watched the bartender dilute our first glass with so much water it had literally no flavor - very disappointing.

Poor service and parking issues...
Pros: DVD rentals right next to the check-in desk for when you're too tired to be outdoors
Cons: Front desk checked us into a room in the building adjacent to the reception. We got to the room and unpacked. Got a call from the front desk within minutes (on the room phone) asking us to change rooms - their excuse was that they made a mistake and assigned us the wrong room. Explained that we were already unpacked but were still made to change rooms.
Also, there was construction going on in the parking lot and a big portion of it was blocked off.

Pros: The location is perfect if you want to explore the island. Kapaa is a great little town there is plenty of great restaurants and shopping. The traffic can be a little bad at times but it does move fairly well.
Cons: The air conditioning could work a lot better. And a fan would also be a nice addition.
