Very nice staff. They are remodeling rooms so I look forward to seeing the room upgrades. The room was nice, but dated. Overall the resort is spread out, ideal location and quiet.

Frequently asked questions

Can I cancel my flight booking to Kauai due to COVID-19?
Many airlines now provide more flexibility due to COVID-19. Our convenient Customer Service Portal will help find an answer to most queries about which policies apply to your Kauai flight.

What are some of the general tips for travellers to Kauai during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to dramatic changes to the way we travel. If you plan to jet off to Kauai, these tips will help you navigate these new rules and challenges:
  • Understand what, if any, restrictions or rules apply to both your destination and origin. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so check government advisories before booking.
  • Wear a face mask even during airport screening. A TSA employee will ask you to temporarily lower your mask for identification purposes.
  • Instead of handing a TSA officer your boarding pass, position it directly on the scanner yourself. After that, hold it up for inspection.
  • You are now allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on baggage. You'll need to remove it for screening.
  • Put any personal items (like your phone, wallet and keys) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during screening.
  • Separate any food you're carrying for X-ray scanning. Placing it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA officer to handle and inspect your belongings.
