Aston At Poipu Kai, hotel in Waimea

Less than 1 mile from Poipu Beach Park and Shipwreck Beach, this 70-acre resort at the southern tip of Kauai features outdoor pools and apartments with full kitchens.

Cozy, upstairs condo unit with an open floor plan and well furnished. A lot of thought went into to the deco, it feels much more like a home than a resort. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need to cook full meals. The extras; books to read, board games, beach chairs and umbrella with other beach toys to choose from on site. To the special guest book to share your experiences with the owner and other visitors to the condo. A touching reminder that this place is someone’s home away from home that they share with others. Views of the ocean from the balcony, as well as, walking distance to one of the most sought after beaches in the world (Poipu) waves or snorkeling, sea turtles, monk seals, fish and other under the sea wildlife can be found here for all comfort levels. Walking distance to restaurants and a short car ride to grocery stores. Our air conditioner failed during our stay and within hours of the office opening we had a new one in the unit. But to be honest the airflow from open windows and a fan worked equally as well.

    Don't bother, so many more options available.

    Don't bother, so many more options available. If you want to see some original cottages, just drive by. Many locals stay there for parties with lots of people in one cottage - they receive nice discounts but do like to stay up late! I would not go to Hawaii to swim in a pool but saw many people use theirs. The beach was poor so no one was on it since you cannot swim. They could have supplied bikes - that would have been a bonus. The distance to everything except Waimea Canyon is far but if you are planning on hiking the canyon daily it is your second best option (the first being cabins 1/2 way up the mountain). You need a car since there is only one restaurant near by and the kitchen facilities are poor. Hiking was great - would have been nice to stay where we could rent a paddle board or surfboards / boogie boards. Def. take a helicopter ride and see the Napili Coast line from the water!

    We booked the Waimea Inn for what we thought was the week of the Waimea Town Festival. Unfortunately, the dates were changed to the next week. Without the festival, the town has nothing to offer visitors. The beach is not swimmable and there are few shops or sites of interest in the town. Most of the restaurants close at 3:00pm so finding somewhere to eat for dinner is mostly impossible. We found ourselves buying groceries and using the Inn common microwave. I would never have booked a room in Waimea (and especially not the Waimea Inn) if I had known in advance how little Waimea has to offer.

    Its far from restaurants, and swell is large, and due to canyon water is not snokleabble. But its enjoyable for swimmimg, surfing, walking, beach picnic, and its a good place for exploring Waimea canyon by hiking. Most trailheads are within short distance. Virtually no traffic

    Poor facilities in the town generally.

    Poor facilities in the town generally. The area around the old sugar plantation was atmospheric. However the pre is access with a car to some fantastic nature trips like Polihale beach and Waimea canyon

    Waimea is great for more adventurous travellers focusing on activities like hiking, ocean activities and being beachside. Waimea area has some great camping places on and off the grid. I recommend Waimea as there are so many beaches, and I loved hiking the canyon. You also have great vista views of Napali ridges and the coastline below. Kuaui is small. enough you can get all the way to Hanalei in a little over an hour. Note that there is no way to drive ll the way around the island because of the Napali coast.

    This was our second visit.

    This was our second visit. We returned to take our family hiking in Polihale State Park and Koke'e State Park. However, a recent storm prevented us from hiking at all. So be prepared to find something else to do. The towns nearby are very small. SO if you like quaint and uncrowded, this is your spot.

    Charming collection of old cottages on site fronting a quiet beach. The cottages are all slightly different, but well equipped, comfortable and clean. It is charming and understated . The details on the Booking.com site really undersell the property. There are beautiful sunsets and the grounds are lovely to walk in. The property does have an independently run restaurant and bar on site. Close to the Waimea Canyon, so you can get a morning head start on other visitors.

    The property is a traditional cottage on a large estate with a lot of open space and beautiful trees. The cottages are well spaced out and have verandahs with, in our case, a lovely view of the ocean. The accommodation is comfortable but unpretentious and the location of the estate is excellent for excursions to the Waimea Canyon and the Na Pali coast. There were fruitful mango trees on site. The staff were courteous and helpful.

    Beautifully manicured and maintained grounds. Quiet and tranquil environment. Good WiFi. Mini-split air con units were quiet and efficient. Ceiling fans were helpful. Good to have insect screens on all windows and doors. Efficient check-in. Great on-site food. Outdoor lighting kept low to the ground so insects and nightlife could thrive. We loved being right next to the town of Waimea within easy reach of the canyon and park.

    It’s a cabin in a remote area and not a 5 star hotel. Can’t confirm the complaints of the other people. Showers were outdated but clean and phenomenal water pressure. There were a lot of blankets and the kitchen was fully stocked (no oil). No mobile coverage, 30min way to reception desk and fire wood are clearly communicated at every stage of the booking process.

    The location is good particularly because of the heavy traffic on the south and east sides of Kauai. Best of all was the staff who were exceptionally friendly, helpful and kind. The lack of a pool or hot tub on the property was a disappointment but we knew that before arriving. Many, many thanks to the staff especially Shannon, Pappy and Nicole.

    I was staying in the Bananaroom, which was huge! As it has an overall-rating of 7.5, I wasn’t expecting much, but fortunately got surprised in a very good way! the two rooms were clean, very comfortable und nicely decorated. I enjoyed my stay very much and the location is perfect - especially for visiting Waimea Canyon and Koke’e park!

    Being a field biologist, I liked the rustic simplicity of my cabin in Kokee State Park. It was perfectly located for me to go birdwatching, hiking, and sunset watching. I can see how lodging in the Cabins of Kokee is not for everyone. I, however, enjoyed a break from technology and enjoyed the peace and quiet of nature.

    The proprety is stunning, in a beautiful setting on the oceanfront. You have everything you need within a 20 min drive, but just for all the essentials, Waimea town is sufficient. There is a taco place simply out of this world within a 10 min walk. Very calm, quiet, and the most amazing evenings we had in Hawaii

    There are very few properties that are so close to Waimea Canyon. It is remote and beautiful. Staff were super-friendly and helpful. They called me in advance of stay to give me information and were very responsive. Because of our schedule we never met face-to-face but they made sure we had what we needed.

    Nice historic inn next to the beach. Our bamboo room had a spacious living area and had ocean view. They also provide you with all the necessities for a beach visit. Location was good, next to the road up to waimea canyon. Would definitely recommend this place for a night or two.
