The room was small and dated, plus in a location away from most other stuff, but was nice with a great staff.

A down to earth property with friendly and courteous staff. This property had received 12 inches of rain the day before our arrival, yet it was in very good shape. Clean and well cared for. If you want polished marble and glitz go somewhere else if you want a clean safe place for your adventures I would recommend. I went to a time share unit after this Inn and hated it. I hope to return to the Kauai Inn. Someday

Hidden Gem in the Nāwiliwili harbor. It’s very quiet but charming with a view better than the resort we stayed at up the street. It’s been there for almost if not over 100 years and while it is pretty outdated, it’s clean and has comfy beds with a little porch on the bottom floors and a nice pool with a 24 hr coffee and tea bar and front reception for all your needs. They staff was very friendly. Price was reasonable. Could use a little more attention to detail/dusting but for our necessities, it was perfect!

I loved the Kauai Inn! When I arrived I was greeted by a super friendly front desk staff member. They have 24hr coffee/tea, a modest breakfast available with some grab and go type snacks too. The pool was lovely, the grounds are beautiful, the roosters just add to the atmosphere! And you won’t even need to use an alarm clock with them around!! Haha My room was clean and very spacious and the bathroom was full-sized with tub. The shower even had great water pressure! The bed was comfortable and I slept very well. I can’t wait to go back!

Needs an upgrade
The room could use a deep clean and airing out. Ie: dirty curtain in bathroom. The fresh start breakfast is very disappointing. Package oatmeal and cookies. There was a toaster but no bread. The coffee was excellent. The location is great from the airport. The pool and landscaping is beautiful.

Great for those wanting to see the island, not stay in a fancy resort and do nothing. Perfectly adequate lodging. Nothing fancy but the staff obviously work hard to make it special and enjoyable. It’s kinda like staying in a bed and breakfast. Older facilities, but clean and comfortable. Check in was super easy and friendly. Check out the same. Breakfast could use a little more variety of food options. Coffee is top notch. If you like coffee you’ll love it here.

It is an older place to stay, but the cleanliness could be improved. First thing we noticed when we walked in was the countertops and the sink were just disgusting. The room was not swept on the days we allowed the housekeeping, one of the days we came back to no towels LMAO. We made the best out of it, but these were conversations we had within the room.
