Loved this resort and the amazing pool that wraps around the entire grounds. It’s so big, you never feel crowded even if lots of people are staying there. Stayed with our family of 9 including 3 children in 3 rooms which were next to each other and facing the pool…couldn’t have asked for a better location. I only requested that the rooms be next… Read more
Loved this resort and the amazing pool that wraps around the entire grounds. It’s so big, you never feel crowded even if lots of people are staying there. Stayed with our family of 9 including 3 children in 3 rooms which were next to each other and facing the pool…couldn’t have asked for a better location. I only requested that the rooms be next to each other or close and as this was my first stay, we could have been anywhere. The hotel is huge! Highly recommend 👍😄 Tip: book with points if you can…the daily resort fee is waived! Read less

We wanted to celebrate our 25th anniversary and we just had an amazing photoshoot with Sarah from Kela & Pacific Dream Photography. Our photoshoot was professional and we were pleased with the pictures. She captured great shots and helped us create memories forever. Briam was awesome to work with!

What a great stay at the Grand Hyatt Kauai. Leis were put on our necks as we drove up. Love that! Shout out to Victor at the front desk as he helped us upgrade to a fantastic suite. Check in was great and so easy. We had club lounge access so that was great and wristbands made that so easy. Our suite was gorgeous. Housekeeping great. Welcome basket in room for being globalist guest was such a nice touch. The lounge was great-always good service. Good breakfast with different hot items, pastries daily. Always good fruit. Snacks/drinks during day. Happy hour was nice to grab cocktails/pupus. Honor system of $5-7 drinks was fantastic! A couple nights we were so full from pupus that we didn't even make it to dinner as we'd go watch show in Seaview Terrace. Sometimes we'd grab desert in lounge after show. The food and drinks by the pool are great as always. Service fantastic! The workers at this hotel always seem happy and to like their jobs. Check out a breeze. Already made our reservation for next year. Can't wait to go back. Mahalo! Read less

I told the front desk and was told to run an AC. But on a google looks like a lot of people complain about that. Breakfast is included for us but you still need… Read more
Ok the resort is huge. Not very clear on the layout and the map is messy. No signage around either. But it’s also stunning. Our room 1011 sticks of mould neither the AC or elsewhere. I told the front desk and was told to run an AC. But on a google looks like a lot of people complain about that. Breakfast is included for us but you still need to tip. Not had that before Pools are amazing. Yes the lounger joggers are here and despite rhe hotel saying you can’t. They don’t care. Good good. Expensive of course but everywhere is the same. They will take you in the evenings into popli which is nice. Let’s hope it improves. Read less
