Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa

greate hotel in kauai island

Had a wonderful visit to the Grand Hyatt in Kauai. Facilities were spotless, garden was amazing, and staff were awesome. Highly recommend!

The perfect place for beauty, for being pampered, for kids of all ages! Very very family friendly with amazing and friendly staff!

This resort was beautiful however considering the cost per night, I feel that it was very overpriced.

Overall, we had a fantastic experience. The service was always friendly and speedy and the hotel has ample amenities that we used to the fullest extent. Check-in: We booked through AmEx Fine Hotels & Resorts and received 1) early check-in at noon; 2) room upgrade from no view to partial ocean view; 3) and free breakfast daily - $108/day value. We did not need late check-out, although I'm sure we would have received it. Anara Spa: My husband loved his garden massage - the masseuse was fantastic and the ambiance with a waterfall and garden was lovely. I used the day pass and enjoyed the sauna, steam room, jacuzzi, and waterfall shower. Avoid going during scheduled aqua-robics classes, as it does change the vibe and ruin the peaceful atmosphere. Pool: Absolutely massive. We were worried that it would feel overrun with kids/people during the holiday weekend, but it remained very chill throughout our stay. We were always able to find two loungers in the shade, and we enjoyed the lazy river every day. Rentals: We used the free beach chair and umbrella rentals daily to take to the beaches, including for the beach onsite. We also rented a great set of flippers ($14/each, a bit pricey). Towel rentals were easy and abundantly offered (no return required, just dump in any bin). Food: Tidepools was our best restaurant experience on the island (Beach House was a very close second). Breakfast at Ilima Terrace was always great with a huge variety of options although there was no obvious day-to-day variation. I recommend the pancake bar with chocolate chip and macadamia nut add-ons. We went to Seaview Terrace every evening for the live music, drinks, and fantastic view. The service at Hale Nalu was great but the food was very bland and super expensive. Captains Bar was always great for a drink. We did not try the Sushi spot but it looked awesome. Highly recommend for your visit to Kauai!

I love this resort so much, it's one of the best in the world. The property is stunning, all the associates were very kind and helpful, the pool is awesome, the food was delicious, we loved our deluxe ocean room and listening to the ocean at night.

We are typically Air BnB or VRBO folks, but my wife and I wanted to try th Grand Hyatt for our south island home base. I had been loyal to Hyatt properties when traveling for business but it had been some time since I stayed at a Hyatt property. It reinforced why I preferred Hyatt properties when I traveled for business. The cleanliness and attentiveness is why I think Hyatt is as respected as it is Internationally. It is like arriving at a luxury International hotel. No rush or hassle to check in, theproperty was well laid out, the grounds are immaculate and the pool is long and winding which allowed pockets of quiet even when the pool was full. There were 2 large conferences at the property while we were there, but it still feeled quiet and calm. The restaurants on site were great and the Hyatt Club access was a nice bonus. We intend to stay here again on our next visit to Kauai.

Beautiful Resort. Over-the-top staff helpfulness. Food was delicious, but very pricey. We reserved cabanas at the salt-water lagoon and beach, but would not have had to at the lagoon, as a large number of loungers (albeit without cushions or cover) were available.
