Fern Grotto Inn

Just a calm and quiet place to stay.

We stayed in Coco Unit D for my honeymoon recently for 5 nights and we had the most incredible stay. The river view from the unit was stunning. The units themself are small but really comfortable and have everything you’d need such as AC and a kitchen with dishes and pots and pans and coffee maker and a comfortable bed and plenty of towels. The location is really ideal since it’s in between Poipu/Waimea and the north shore and 10 minutes away from the airport. But what makes this place really stand out is the amenities it has to offer. We used the free kayaks to kayak to Secret falls trailhead which was about 40 minutes away. We used the free bikes to bike along the ocean. We loved being able to do our laundry here and use the snorkel equipment. Also the mango trees! There are about 5 mango trees on the property that you are allowed to harvest from and the mangoes are so delicious! There was also a star fruit tree and a small lime tree! Paul has truly put so much thought into his property and I couldn’t have imagined a better place for us to have stayed at for our honeymoon.

Fern Grotto Inn is wonderful! It is in a great location, convenient to driving in any direction. The Inn provides many comforting extras so that you don't need to overpack or buy items unnecessarily. (Beach towels, beach chairs, coolers, kayaks, snorkel gear, etc.) The Inn was quiet and comfortable. We loved the privacy of Coco A and would certainly stay here again if we have an opportunity to return to Kauai.

Fern Grotto Inn is the perfect lodging on Kaua’i. Easy access to all parts of the island, wonderful amenities and a fantastic owner. Easy check-in/out, spotless housekeeping and a welcome binder full of useful information and recommendations. Kick your shoes off, put on your slippahs and enjoy your stay!

This is very private, great views of river and palms (garden cottage) and has everything you need to be comfortable. You can walk to the beach crossing just one crosswalk but even driving there is always room to park (Lyndale beach). The access to free kayaks, paddle board and bicycles is a plus as the river and bike path are great. There are no additional fees for parking or use of resort fees, just simple and easy. The gas bbq grills were a plus as well as the multiple areas outside to have dinner.

Charming vintage house. Close walk to beach and river. Clean and especially well stocked kitchen. A large table for lifelong friends to gather evenings to share stories and play games. Newer friends were made with the green gecko who lives on the back porch, and the garden roosters and chickens on the property. Ample parking . We felt very safe.
