Go Hawaiian Style
Beautiful relaxing but yet still plenty of activity options. Staff makes you feel special. Food was exceptional. The Spa was so relaxing and felt like you were in another world The beach is wonderful and saw a Monk Seal and turtles will go again

Total relaxation, beautiful resort, aloha all around from staff
Grand Hyatt Kauai was spectacular without being pretentious or overwhelming. The grounds are beautiful and situated just close enough to other places in Poipu while being secluded in its corner. It’s pretty sprawling end to end. There’s a nice walking path to take you along the coast. There’s access to the beach but the pool is quite sufficient for the family. Went with our toddler and it was just perfect for relaxation. I love all parts of Kauai and getting outside but there is enough at the resort to keep you entertained. Staff is friendly and helpful. Will be hard to choose another place to stay on Kauai. Mahalo for a lovely time.

Nicest Hotel on South Shore, Best Beach, Great Hotel for Extended Family
The nicest beach on this side of Kaui and private so not busy like Poipu. Nicest resrot on south shore. It's the only hotel on an approx 2 km beach so it's not crowded like the main area of Poipu. Gorgeous large grounds but unfortunatley only short walking trails so to extend walking, you can go east or west from the hotel beach along two sets of oceanside traisl for appoximatly 6 km more. Beautiful views from large rooms but the furntiure in them was dated, beautiful common areas including three excellent restaurants, lounge, bar area with evening music. The pool was special- it winds through a large area with sitting areas along it that are seperated into small sections so each section feels private. Lots of areas around the pool with canopies or covers for shade. No shortge of loungers. There is a very fun man-made lagoon adjacent to pool area with shallow, warm water and sandy man-made beach that was fabulous for grandkids to play or anyone who likes protected water. Pretty swinging lounge seats along the ocean walk to sit on. Brunch or breakfast in open air Ilima restaurant with high ceilings and large open windows that look out over a pool with swans then across landscaped grounds to ocean view beyond, sushi and drinks at Stevenson's Bar- both great. Not an exclusive resort but lovely for a couple or extended family. Many decent restaurants within ten minutes drive. A dozen very good hiking trails in area and the heritage trail that runs off the west side of the hotel beach is very good for morning walks.

Fell flat of expectations
Parts of the hotel, including the rooms, could use a refresh for the rates they charge. Grounds/landscaping were BEAUTIFUL throughout and the pools and outdoor areas were my favorite part of this resort. Tidepools was super disappointing - do yourself a favor and go to Beach House instead if you are looking for a nice dinner!

A Treasure... Top Notch Service, Gorgeous Property
Once again, an outstanding stay. This place is pure magic, service is simply unbeatable. Book a stay here, and you will not regret it. Grand Club staff always exceed expectations. They welcomed us back like old friends, worked hard to keep the dining areas spotless, sanitary and replenished, cheerfully handled special dietary requests, and provided the highest level of hospitality. This incredible staff continues to provide the best club experience in the world... mahalo to Amy, Ana, Renee, Alexis, Justin, Cindi, Samantha, Kieran, Victoria, Erika, and the other new staff members too! Also sending a big mahalo to Celeste and Christine for making us feel like welcome guests each time, and for the beautiful suite accommodations (Globalist SUA used) and amenities. We have known the Wildlife Team for over 10 years, and we are always very happy to see them. They do a phenomenal job caring for all the wildlife. It is heartwarming to see how bonded the birds are to them... please keep this fabulous team (Kolo, Mackenzie and Jen) happy in their jobs, because the wildlife need them! It warms our hearts to see how well cared for the wildlife at Grand Hyatt Kauai are. This says a lot about the management at this resort. Anara Spa staff were also friendly, helpful and professional, as always. They kept each area spotless and created a beautiful ambiance for relaxation and serenity. All staff at Seaview Terrace, Stevensons, and Tidepools were also exceptional. We were given the best tables with wonderful views, and food and service were fantastic. A special shout out to Les at Tidepools, and our servers at Stevensons, who took good care of us and extended much appreciated Kamaaina discounts. Kudos to all staff and management at Grand Hyatt Kauai who set this resort above all the others. There is no place as beautiful and as welcoming. The aloha spirit can be felt throughout. A hui hou!
