Kapaa Kealia Forest Reserve Hotels

"The location and outlook (right in the beach) is great and the price was reasonable. The property and the room felt shabby. Our bathroom door had a hole in it that was just covered up with tape. The staff were a little surly and made me feel awkward asking for anything. "

"Everything was good. The views and location."

"Solid for a Hilton Garden Inn. If you're expecting a resort, you won't find it. But it's great place if you're honest with expectations. Great location for families with beach and playgrounds steps away. "

"It was a good clean room"

"yes"

"Very clean rooms, great staff, centrally located. I love the ocean view, the pool and the bar area. I would definitely stay again. Thank you for making our stay very memorable!"

"Beautiful partial ocean view with a swimmable sandy beach and chairs, large bedroom and bathroom, smaller second bathroom, fast Wi-Fi, two small balconies, large ceiling fans, a large, beautiful, fully equipped kitchen, stacked washer and dryer (very nice for drying swimsuits), friendly service, flowers and manicured grounds, a great gym, a large pool with two water slides for kids to enjoy, and three hot tubs. Perfect location next to shopping and a grocery store. Free parking. A restaurant on-site, but I recommend making reservations. My family plans to stay here again! This is the best resort on Kauai!"

"Perfect location to view the ocean and wonderful sunrises! The unit was just as pictured. The kitchen was very well appointed with most everything you would need to prepare meals. Very clean. The bed was comfortable, a bit on the soft side, but very nice. Lots of fun things in the closet-beach towels, tennis racquets, beach chairs, just bring your own sunscreen (reef friendly per Hawaii) and you are set. A few restaurants within walking distance, quite a few are established food trucks. If you want a little more upscale, you will have to drive to those. Grocery store is about a mile away. We were fortunate spy a few whales in the distance - you do need to know what whale activity you're looking for though, and thanks to the binoculars in the unit, we could see a few tail flips. Despite being a private rental, the resort amenities are available to you-pool, tennis courts, putting greens, exercise room and laundry facilities. A convenient change machine near the lobby will get you all the quarters you need to wash and dry. We did have a slight issue with the HVAC system, but the owner and his on-island contact were very prompt, receptive and helpful. All was well. Mahalo! for a really nice stay. "

"Great view, excellent staff, EXCELLENT FOOD. "
