Hotels in Wainiha

"Very kind people with a great location right on the water with a snorkeling beach a 3 minute walk along the sand to an opening in the coral. Beautiful fish we even saw a sea turtle in the water with us. My family especially appreciated the heated pool."

"Absolutely beautiful—period. I would definitely stay here again. Iso Castle offers a peaceful, beach-cabin–like experience that is all about location, quiet, and natural beauty. We stayed in December and loved falling asleep to the sound of waves crashing and waking up every morning to a stunning sunrise over the ocean. The views are truly unforgettable. This is not a luxury or fancy property, and that’s part of its charm. Don’t expect a kitchen—there isn’t one—but there is a fridge, and everything was very clean and well maintained. The balcony experience was a highlight for us and added so much to the stay. I highly recommend booking a premium oceanfront room if possible. Rooms 233 and 234 are exceptional. A couple of practical notes: there is no elevator, so be prepared to carry your luggage up the stairs. The only downside was the service from one staff member at reception on Christmas Day 2024. She seemed quite grumpy and unhelpful, particularly when we asked to have our towels replaced, which was disappointing given an otherwise lovely stay. Overall, Iso Castle is a beautiful, quiet oceanfront retreat. If you value views, serenity, and a relaxed beach atmosphere, this place is well worth it. "

"We (family of four) had the best stay at Kauai Shores over the week of Christmas! It is accurately represented by the pictures and details given. The grounds were impeccably kept, our room (with a kitchenette) was clean and suited our needs, but the best part was the hard-working staff. They were always friendly and approachable, and they went above and beyond to ensure guests had a pleasant stay. The location is excellent because you can walk to restaurants and bakeries, and there is a good-sized ABC grocery store too. I would absolutely stay here again. "

"Great hospitality, the room was newly renovated and food served at the restaurant was delicious."

"We stayed here two times within last 2 years and this is very affordable hotel in central location with easy access to the both sides of the island. Also it is very close to the Kapaa and coconut market area which makes it very convenient. Hotel itself is ok. It has very big potential. Good place for those who want to save some money and doesn't require much of amenities. If you come to Kauai for nature and tours - this is the place to stay at."
