Every team member I encountered was welcoming and lovely! Sad I only spent one night there. Would love to have stayed longer and would definitely book again if I ever return to Kauai. The bed was also so comfortable! Could have stayed curled up in it all day! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Cool old motel updated in great location on the beach with the Lava Lava bar and restaurant adjacent. Also a good spot if you are exploring both ends of the island, it’s right in the middle and minutes to airport. Rooms are small but updated very nicely.
