Hanapepe Salt Ponds is a peaceful place to take a break. Enjoy a picnic lunch, toss a Frisbee around or just lie on the grass and shut your eyes for a while.

This recreation and green space is on the to-do lists of many travelers to Eleele. But Hanapepe Salt Ponds isn't the area's only highlight. Waimea Bay Beach, Kauai Coffee Company, and Russian Fort Elizabeth State Historical Park are some other worthwhile attractions nearby.

Getting pushed to attend a timeshare presentation wasn't a good first impression, but we loved the space and rest our room provided as well as all the amenities (pool, shopping, restaurants). We did not know there was not a daily cleaning service, and more information could have been provided about taking care of trash, laundry, etc. The front desk staff were hit-and-miss - some were great, others were dismissive and made us feel like we were bothering them. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would come again!
