Amazing resort. The beach is part of the property which makes it really convenient. The little pool area with water slides for kids made our visit remarkable for our toddler.

Amazing resort, HUGE pool with lots of chairs around the pool and on the beach. Very spacious and modern rooms

I was only here for 2 nights/3 days and I wish I could have stayed longer. I had amazing interactions with everyone there from the airport shuttle driver to Susan (front desk agent who checked me in) she was lovely! It was a beautiful property with such amazing views from my lanai. Will be returning!

Beautiful hotel with an amazing pool

Bronson who drove us to and from the airport was amazing. He set the tone on a wonderful family vacation.

My boyfriend and I visited Kauai in June and we stayed at the Royal Sonesta Resort in Lihue. This resort offers the biggest pool there is on the island and we enjoyed it to the fullest, including the hidden but public hot tubs around the pool. In my opinion these hot tubs were the best part. Easy access to the beach and restaurants, and it has many amenities. We enjoyed our stay at this resort and I recommend it for a fun summer stay with good vibes and weather.

The perfect Hawaiian vacation. Everything was amazing. My family had a blast.

Food was good just pricey but overall the

Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the Royal Sonesta Kauai. It's connected to a Marriott resort, so there are a lot of restaurants and different spaces in which to relax. Our room was updated and clean, though they only provide in-room services every two days. As a vegetarian, there were limited options and our best meals were off the resort. We traveled all over the coastline to many beaches and I'm glad we did. The beach at the resort is fine, but there are a lot better ones elsewhere. The pool is pretty empty early in the mornings and then later in the evenings and I swam laps and relaxed during those times.

Beautiful location

Beautiful property on beach. Great for families. Room had sticky stuff on bathroom counter and the coffee maker was filthy where you pour water. Did not use it. Other than all staff was super nice except for check on. She may have had a bad day. Great location.

Amazing! Workers are kind the pool is insanely nice. The beach is great. Literally a resort out of a movie screen. Partial ocean views from majority of the rooms too. Close to airport and located centrally on island!

Beautiful hotel with lots of gorgeous landscaping, including a koi pond, and artwork to enjoy while walking along the hallways or pausing to rest at one of the many comfy outdoor seating areas. The large pool was awesome. There were 5 hot tubs, so you didn’t have to wait too long before one became available if you just wanted to hang out in one with your own group. We were in a pool-view room, but there was also a view of the ocean off to our left that only got better if you went out onto the balcony. The nearby beach was also beautiful and relatively calm due to it being a bit more protected by what seems to be a natural harbor. We appreciated the nearby dining options on days when we didn’t want to hunt around for something in town or just got cleaned up from a day hike and didn’t feel like going out in the car again. Sometimes the front desk seemed like it could have been better staffed (especially if you were there after pool house hours and needed to get pool towels) but staff was always courteous and apologized for the wait if there was one. I would definitely consider staying at the Royal Sonesta again.

Close to many shops and restaurants. Hotel restaurants are pretty pricey though.

This property is beautiful! Easy assess to the beach and pool. There are some restaurants near by and the hotel also had a few, but were expensive! The only issue Ihad was that we didn’t rent a car and there was only one bus tour that picked people up at the property. If you have issues navigating the stairs be careful…the restaurant was down stairs and we could not find an elevator…according to the staff there wasn’t one?

Everything was great. It was clean and the pool am

My first stay here after it was taken over by Sonesta. I've stayed her numerous times when it was a Marriott. Staff displayed the Aloha spirit, room was super clean and updated with The only suggestion I have is the pool towels and room towels be examined for wear and tear.

Loved it. Will be back

Beautiful view and property

The staff was amazing, the pool was beautiful
