Good stay

Older hotel, but very clean room … bathroom a bit small for today’s standards, but again very clean and usable. Quiet setting. We were able to park about 20 feet from our door, which made getting luggage in and out easy. The hotel worked very well for our purposes. Would stay again and definitely recommend.

The cottage was small but cozy and convenient. Good price on short notice. The area is not the most beautiful on the island but that’s what cars are for.

A delightful surprise.

We needed a hotel for 1 night near the airport with 2 beds to sleep 3 people. We had a room with 1 King and a twin. Perfect! I read a ton of reviews and took a a chance on Kauai Palms and we are soooooo to glad we did! Here's why. It is a super cute property. The tropical theme in the room was so cute. Old school setup like Melrose Place. It was a step beyond clean. The property was older but the property and rooms were sparkling clean. There is a wonderful display of Hawaiian history and items on display. It was fascinating to read the history and look at artifacts. A hidden gem. The hotel is close to beaches and shopping but not in the resort areas. It is more downtown in local areas. The staff was super nice, welcoming and helpful. This hotel is crazy close to the airport.

It’s an older property, so be wary of electricity usage and sink water temperature. Otherwise, we had a lovely stay. The staff was so nice.

We stayed one night. Needed a place close to the airport before traveling to Princeville to stay for the week. Very small but clean. Parking is a challenge if arriving late. Staff was quick to respond via text message. Fresh coffee in the morning. Could hear through the walls. For a quick one night stay, not bad, But would not stay longer than that.

Nice motel

Good motel to stay for late flights or a night to wait out flight next day. Not the best for longer stay as location is in center of town off main road.

Nice hotel but location a challenge

Really nice hotel/resort. Management on site and very responsive to all requests. Only draw back is location which is off the main area by cruise ships. Tough time getting to beach.

Aloha from a small corner of Kauai

Nice quaint, small place. The price was right. Don't expect the big rooms of those large hotels/resorts. Yes the room was small, the bathroom was even tinier. But it was cozy, the bed was comfy and most important everything was clean. And the people were welcoming. Definitely felt the Aloha!

An exceptional stay!

We had a truly wonderful stay at Kauai Palms Hotel 🌺✨ We booked the garden studio, and our room was absolutely perfect – clean, cozy, and in a super convenient location for exploring Kauai 🚗🌴. But what made our stay so memorable was the incredible staff 🙏💚. A special mention to Lisa, who was always a joy to correspond with, Talia, who was always super friendly and kind, and an extra heartfelt shoutout to Rini, who was beyond kind and warm when we arrived. Her genuine kindness and heartfelt welcome truly set the tone for our entire stay, and we felt her Aloha in every moment 🌞🌈. Thank you, Rini, for making our Kauai time extra special 💛. Highly recommend staying here if you want a caring, convenient, and comfortable base on Kauai. May all beings be well, be happy, be peaceful 🌿 With Mettā for your wonderful people today, tomorrow, and every single day of your lives, Noah
