Lawai Beach Resort

This is an update April, 2024! I have been going to the Lawai beach resort for 35 years and it is still VERY hard to leave this beautiful place! I get up every morning at 6:30 to walk to the Spouting Horn or the Sheraton, then eat breakfast while enjoying the beautiful views from the lanai. The staff is very nice and helpful, and other visitors are so friendly-owners as well as traders. There are three pools, Jacuzzi, tennis, fitness room, and mini golf on site. Alii and Banyan buildings have their own washers and dryers. Even though Kauai is very laid-back, there is so much to do. There is great snorkeling right across the street, just be careful of the rocks. The national tropical botanical gardens is just down the street. The aloha festival is in late September. The ATV trip is my favorite-especially if it’s muddy, zip lining is a great adventure, Waimea Canyon is a must, my favorite luau is at the Kiahanna plantation, the bike path has beautiful ocean views. a boat ride up the Napali coast is also a must. The trail from the Hyatt has breathtaking views of the ocean and cliffs. Princeville, Hanalei, Kapaa, Kaloa, Hanapepe, Poipu and so much more! Great fun at a truly great resort!

It's an awesome location in Lawai, walking distance to the shopping center and restaurants! Such an amazing beachfront resort with the best snorkeling directly across the street at Lawai Beach! Gorgeous sunsets from the Lani! Mini golf is a lot of fun with the family!

unobstructed ocean view, no one above or below, the perfect retreat with plenty of room to move around. Having 2 washer and dryers makes it easy to travel with less. The full kitchen will save money so you can have a meal on the lanai looking at the ocean waves. It is so beautiful. The location is great for taking walks along the ocean or a quick drive to a hiking trail or a great restaurant to try out.

Best Snorkeling beach ever! We saw 3-7 turtles each time we snorkeled. Lots of fish too.

Pools were great, people nice!

Perfect family resort. Low key, relaxed stay. Grass outside for kids to play on, and one of the best snorkeling beaches ( with turtles) directly across the street. Street is almost private and you can leave your screen door open at night to hear the surf ( almost no car traffic). But only minutes to Koloa village and Poipu restaurants.

Have been going to this resort for 25 years.

Great place for kids and adults. Located on the south shore of the island. Not far from the airport (Lihue) is a Costco and shopping. Resort is 15 miles from Lihue.

Staff very friendly and helpful. You can rent snorkel equipment, chairs and umbrellas.

I love the location of sunny Poipu! If you go out of the resort and turn right & walk along the ocean 1 mile you get to "spouting horn" and the botanical Gardens. If you go left, you go about a mile to Bubba's burgers and lapperts ice cream and a shopping center... the fancy beach House restaurant is across the street. Some of the best snorkeling on the island is also across the street. A couple of times a week the resort has a food truck or pizza oven located in the parking lot. It's really nice to go down, get that food and then sit on the balcony ( lanai) . I never tire of watching & hearing the waves . It's not unusual to see surfers out there. They can be seen from the living room or balcony from our unit..There is a little snack shack located on the property across from the restaurant. They have a wide variety of goodies there. There are 3 pools & putt putt golf onsite. Our family goes to Costco & the grocery store after we fly in to Lihue so we can relax as soon as we check in. There is plenty to do in the Island (last time we enjoyed the tubing!) but even staying in the unit is great too!
