Waves crash near the lanais of Koa Kea Hotel & Resort's oceanfront guestrooms, a collection of low-profile buildings that blend with the nature around them. Inside, fresh flowers accent simple, modern island décor and art prints of coral. Koa Kea means "white coral," a tribute to the life-giving power of the reefs. According to Hawaiian mythology, coral is the goddess granddaughter of the world’s creator. From November to May, Koa Kea’s slice of the Pacific hosts a migration of humpback whales, so keep an eye to the horizon.

Overall, all this place was amazing, nice and quiet. The grounds are super clean. I only really big suggestions that the pillows are terrible. You really need some nice soft, brown pillows. The rooms were clean to an amazing degree every day, and the views from the balconies were amazing. Also, everyone was really friendly and super courteous.

Ko’a Kea is rated as one of the top luxury resorts in the world by several travel publications and because it’s a Meritage Property, it means you’re getting comfortable ocean front accommodations and amenities, far less children, and far less noise than other more family-friendly resorts. The downside, it’s one of the more expensive properties to stay at. I recommend the oceanfront balcony room (though pricier, the view was totally worth it).

This was the best hotel/resort experience we have ever had. The resort is intimate and quiet and really has that Kauai ambiance and vibes. When we arrived, Kasey was there to greet us with open arms. He was very attentive, explained the accommodations and showed us to our room. He even ordered us late night snacks. The food was incredible. We had room service two nights, the tuna and lobster gnocchi. We will definitely be returning.
