Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa

Love this resort. Everything about it exceeded my expectations. The people that work here were wonderful to my family and Is. The pools were incredible. And we loved our room. Nightly music in the lobby at Sea View Terrace was the perfect way to end the evening. Tidepools and Stephenson’s Library were both excellent. The retail vendors that the hotel brought in were brilliant (especially the doll dresses). Whoever Hyatt has running this hotel should be congratulated.

An outstanding property! Just way, way too big. Excellent staff, the food and drink is all very good. Such a long hike to the outer rooms. 5 minute walk.,... The shops are very nice and other than the wood artist shop, you can buy reasonably. The valets are excellent and the bell hops are also excellent. They name it clear you need not tip the bells, but they are so great that you should

Great family trip. This was our second time here. First was our honeymoon! Kids really enjoyed the water slide, pool, and lagoon. You can’t really swim on the beach, and there are no chairs provided. So if you want a beach, this may be not be the resort for you. Pool food service was wonderful. Stephenson’s library is awesome and has a great bar. You need reservations though. The terrace restaurant wasn’t very good, but it’s a pretty setting for a drink. Breakfast buffet was always good. We wished there was one more causal spot that didn’t require a reservation. Tidepools is beautiful, great bar, and food was pretty good. They used to have a great Italian restaurant, but it’s gone now. There are two awesome hikes/walks in both directions from the hotel that we did a lot. Area is nice and lots of cute shopping and places to eat off site. Our room has a beautiful ocean view, but we were the absolute furthest room from the lobby. So it may be worth asking about room location if you have small kids or people w mobility issues. Gym was great and had good classes and a lovely shop. Overall, a wonderful trip!

Location: Nice part of the island. Easy walk to spend time with the turtles at Poipu. Bedroom: Nice room. Until you realize there are ants all over the balcony and your nightstand and on the bed and behind the TV and in the bathroom. Bathroom: Huge fan of the bidet. Shower: Water leaked out of the shower. Pros: Appreciate extra towels outside each room. Nice variety of wildlife. Beautiful grounds. Good variety of pools. Cons: Told the front desk about ants x2. Nothing noticeable was done. No change of rooms offered. Head to sleep with lights on just to keep on lookout for ants!

We stayed here for our honeymoon in 2008. Fast forward 16 years and we brought our 3 kids back here. I’m not a go to a place twice type of guy as there is so much I want to see but this place just makes me happy. The grounds are amazing, the rooms are clean, and the service is five star. You don’t go five star cheap so yeah.. you’re gonna pay for it but don’t we all deserve luxury and pampering for all the hard work we put in? I have a degree in hospitality and trained by a well known high end luxury brand. I care about cleanliness, service, and the details. I have high expectations at certain price points and this place delivers. My wife is a travel agent and we promote this property to every single customer coming to Kauai. Yes it’s big. Yes it can be a long walk from place to place but honestly that’s what makes it so awesome!!! Book it. Do not think twice!!
