Guest reviews· 8.3/10 (252)
The Royal Sonesta Kauai Resort Lihue generally receives high praise from guests, often highlighted as an excellent choice for both families and individuals. Guests frequently commend the resort for its spacious accommodations and abundant dining options, contributing to a "pretty much perfect" holiday experience for many. The value offered by the resort is also a recurring positive theme, with several guests noting it as a "remarkable value."
The resort’s facilities are a significant draw, with the outdoor swimming pool being a popular amenity. On-site conveniences such as vending machines for snacks and drinks, a coffee house, and the option for breakfast in the room further enhance the guest experience. Additionally, its central location is appreciated by many, even for those who stumbled upon it due to unforeseen travel changes, finding it to be a "great accident."
However, not all feedback is entirely positive. A notable concern raised by one guest points to service not being optimal and the significant cost of parking at $30, particularly when considering the available parking space. While the majority of reviews are overwhelmingly positive, this suggests a potential area for improvement in guest services and parking fee transparency or value perception.
