8.4/10 Very Good! (1,242 reviews)
I loved the place! It fit 6 of us perfectly! Parking was easy as there’s many open spots to choose from. Early check in was only $50 so that was definitely an easy YES for us. The second bedroom (full bed) didn’t have a ceiling, it was just a wall and door from the hallway so you can hear everything from the hallway to that room which isn’t a problem if you don’t mind. Everything was extremely clean and the service was very easy, if we needed anything, we just asked the office and exchanged dirty towels every day! Also multiple AC units which kept the house nice and cold and a washer/dryer for convenience! There’s a cute shopping mall and lots of food walking distance and an extremely cute bar called Nawiliwili Bar & Lounge and I definitely recommend checking that out if you like that vibe. ONLY downside in my opinion is the lack of beaches in the area and main attractions. Poipu definitely has better beaches and attractions and more sun (at least when we were there). Overall, I definitely would rate this place a 10/10 with price/quality/cleanliness/friendliness and would 100% come back! Get a car and explore! <3

9.6/10 Exceptional! (1,003 reviews)
My husband and I came to Kauai for our 2 year anniversary. We loved staying at the Kola Landing hotel. It was absolutely beautiful and the pool was superb. I attended the HIIT class, which was great. The whole property was just beautiful. The staff was lovely and always helpful and we loved that our rooms had a washer/dryer. Great stay and would highly recommend for a family trip. If you’re a couple that doesn’t like kids, this isn’t the property for you. If you don’t mind, this is a beautiful hotel. Keep in mind if you’re looking for beach access, you may want to reconsider.
