About the Hotel
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.

Reviews for Koa Kea Hotel & Resort
Can’t wait to go back!
We had a great time at Koa Kea! I would highly recommend this place a couples or anyone looking for an easy relaxing Hawaii experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and the rooms had several extra touches that made us feel extra welcome. We can’t wait to return!

Will definitely stay a second time!
Amazing all around. Clean rooms, nice restaurant, nice pool with bar/restaurant service, a private seating area away from the pool, and right in front of the beach!

Cozy & Quiet Resort
Relax at a high-end friendly and quiet resort on the south side of Kaua'i. After staying at high profile hotels on previous vacations, I appreciate the low key atmosphere and not-so-crowded venue of Ko-a Kea. The rooms are all positioned for optimal ocean views, and the smaller pool translates to fewer children compared to other hotels. The in-house restaurant offers delicious meals and the concierge is efficient and extremely knowledgable about the entire island. Be sure to book a spa appointment-- Jessica provided the BEST massage I've enjoyed in a long time, and my facial was top-notch, as well. I will return to this quieter atmosphere again when visiting this amazing island.

The Koa Kea was top notch! We loved every minute. Beautiful landscaping, rooms nicely appointed and great quality sheets and towels and superb housekeeping. Red Salt restaurant was perfect and delicious. Breakfast, meals, and wait staff were wonderful, especially Raven - our waiter most days. Not one negative about this boutique hotel. Will return again.
