Polihale State Park

Miles past the end of the state road, you’ll find this beach where the locals camp out.

End of the road at the peaceful Polihale Beach and State Park ~ AKA ~ The longest sandy beach in all of the Hawaiian Islands. This is also the start of the remarkable Na Pali Coastline on the garden isle of Kauai. Four-wheel drive is recommended for the road leading to Polihale State Park. Rental car companies do not take emergency roadside service calls at this spot. If you still decide to go in with a two-wheel drive vehicle, be sure to stop at the local grocery store in Waimea town on your way to pick up a 12-pack of "Hawaiian Insurance"-- just in case you need to ask a local to pull you out of the sand ;)

8.6/10 Excellent! (521 reviews)

The room was clean and as expected. The view was pretty and the pool area was really nice. The reason we booked here is they include free parking which was great. A short walk to the beach and so many places to eat and shop close by. Our family of 4 really enjoyed it.

9/10 Wonderful! (3,280 reviews)

We had a club room which included breakfast and happy hour food and drinks. This turned out to be a great option. The hotel was well positioned in Waikīkī with direct access to the beach and located in the heart of shopping and restaurant district. Only reason I didn’t score higher was that their fitness room was closed until further notice.
