The kids are sure to sleep soundly after a fun day out at Glass Beach. Hunt for crabs and other little critters, stick a toe in the water or throw a Frisbee around!

This stretch of coastline is located in Eleele, a place that has so much on offer! National Tropical Botanical Garden, Spouting Horn, and Kauai Coffee Company are other fine sightseeing opportunities nearby when you're all done at Glass Beach.

8/10 Very Good! (1,653 reviews)
The hotel room was huge! Kitchen had everything we needed, everything was clean and comfortable and the location was perfect! I was worried there might be traffic noise since it’s close to the main road, but we never heard a thing! Great find!
