Staff were so friendly and helpful. The room was clean, bed very comfortable, bathroom very nice. Pool was average but the pool deck and chairs were most welcome. Breakfast was filling and the 24 hr coffee is most appreciated. Quite a different experience sharing one’s breakfast with chickens and peacocks. Could do without the roosters however.

Such a lovely spot! Felt very local and genuine. The staff were so kind and helpful. The surrounding scenery was beautiful and the grounds were so well kept. They played Hawaiian music by the pool all day which really set the vibe. The continental breakfast was convenient - and they served fresh picked oranges from their property apparently. Accessible location. Will be staying here again when we visit Kauai!

Just an incredible setting. The place looked so adorable. The rooms were a bit older, but clean. The walls were thin, so loud, the breakfast was surreally beautiful setting. You need to know what you are getting, which is a older, quaint place that is just set in an amazingly beautiful location. We'd visit again for sure.

Room was clean but tired and old. The walls are thin so noisy when anyone in room above moved. Air conditioning system was so loud it was hard to sleep even in sleep mode. Too many peacocks and chickens jumping onto breakfast tables . Ice room next to Block 3 means these rooms are noisy anytime someone uses it day or night. Staff friendly. BReakfast decent.
