Koa Kea Hotel & Resort

I was lucky enough to spend an entire week at Ko’a Kea and I cannot recommend this property enough! This property is intimate, relaxing and beautiful. Every team member I encountered was thoughtful, and kind. They all provided me with spectacular recommendations and made me feel incredibly special. My room was immaculate and the pool was perfect for resting during the day. All the food I enjoyed was amazing as well! Sushi was great quality, Red Salt breakfast and dinner was delicious, Happy Hour at the Pool Bar was spectacular, and in room dining was tasty! I cannot say enough wonderful things about this property and the team who brings it to life. Thank you Ko’a Kea!

The Ko’aKea is a superb place to stay on Kauai! The property is in an ideal location, walking distance to great beaches, good restaurants and has a fantastic restaurant Red Salt, on the grounds. The staff are super friendly and helpful. We loved being taken care of by Raven and Marlina in the restaurant and by Kaimana who is such a great valet.Great beds, great towels, great ocean view!

The smaller aspect of this property makes it very convenient and quick to get in and out, more intimate and personable experience, and lastly, far less crowded. Dinner, breakfast and service at the restaurant was very good. Room was clean with a very large TV. Wish we had a bath tub but many hotels seem to be doing away with this.

First, the staff were very sweet and helpful throughout, particularly the valets, waiters, and bar staff, and the resort has gorgeous beaches and views, with a convenient location for touring south Kauai. However, we were there for 3 days, checking in late on Thursday after a long day hiking, and checking out Saturday morning for a long day of travel returning home. We had trouble getting hot water in our shower that first night (Thurs), and notified the desk both on Friday morning and Saturday morning to see if we could get it fixed or use another shower elsewhere in the hotel. Long story short, at the end of the trip we were left with cold showers throughout our stay and no solutions or regrets offered by engineering, the front desk, nor management, but we were handed the final invoice without recourse.

Our stay at Ko’a Kea was nothing short of excellent from start to finish. The concierge team was helpful and warm in their greetings. House keeping kept our room clean and comfortable. Valet was quick and helpful recommending off site local good eats. Noah at Red salt was amazing! We also rented some gear from Hoku sports on property and Leila gave amazing beach recs and also food recs. Last but not least, we enjoyed morning yoga with Teri each morning looking out at the ocean was such a cool experience. Bonus, the spa at Ko’a Kea was wonderful, our therapists were professional and delivered the relaxation we were seeking. We’ll be back! Thanks Ko’a Kea
