What travelers are saying
- Tim Hutchinson11 contributionsWe stopped here on a whim and was pleased with the rum tasting. Our bartender taught us how the different rums were made and how best to mix each one! Brought some home with us!Written 18 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- EvsLos Angeles, CA136 contributionsBeautiful waterfall! I would highly recommend making a stop here. Parking is very tight as it’s pretty much one tiny one way lane and you have to try to park on the sides. DO NOT HIKE TO THE BOTTOM. Don’t risk it. It says not to enter for a reason and there have been recent deadly accidents.Written 24 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- KAC11 contributionsEspecially if you have kiddos, take the train ride before you go eat at Gaylords. Fun little trip around the property to see and feed the animals before you have a truly memorable meal at Gaylords -- food is top-notch!Written 27 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- F00lishTravelerSavannah, GA248 contributionsWe spent a couple of hours on a rainy day. There is a lot to see here in a relatively small space. But you will learn a lot. Like how native Hawaiians make the spectacular feather helmets and capes you often see on the ranking rulers in old photos. And how King Kamehameha I tried a few times to invade Kauai from Oahu but failed every time, but then won in the end when the leader of Kauai decided to join the Hawaiian kingdom to avoid another invasion attempt. And the koa bowl collection is spectacular. Walls are literally COVERED with information to read. Staff is VERY courteous.Written 24 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- cruisecruzing2 contributionsAs the cruise ship docked early in the morning, I had the chance to go out and about.
I wa surprised because after so many visits on this port, only now i managed to go out to the nearby KAlapaki beach. The beach is very nice due to its physical structure of long brownish gold yellow sand..fine texture of course! You can scrub it into your legs and get that ooohh effect...hahah...also i took a jogging along the sand from one end to end...took me about 788 steps or so! Hopefully i did not get distracted counting as I passed thru the sexy girls sunbathing in their triangle swimsuit! The swimming area is shallow wide form which makes it perfect for kids and non swimmers, too!..Nearby food resto are many and you may select which ever suit your palette or your budget maybe...remember, its Hawaii!
Surfing is also a popular water activity here.
Free entrance to the beach area makes it 5/5 on my rating plus all the things you wanted on a beach...especially the sunny weather!
P.S. Im here on a daytime only. Night scenarios are not sure for me how it is. This is my 2nd experience on this beach though i been here in Nawiliwili many times during the years that I cruise here. First one i was out was last month! hahaha

- Marc NBartlesville, OK741 contributionsMake your way through the nice roads of the Marriott resort and follow the wooden signs- when you get to dirt roads you are getting close- worth the driveWritten 20 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- srobbyPennsylvania427 contributionsHeld on Saturdays, this is a must see place when in Kauai. Market stands for fresh vegetables, fruits, meats, fish, arts and crafts and fresh made local delicacies. We loaded up on native fruits and had Sugarloaf pineapple pops to top off our visit.Written 8 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Grahame FIpswich, Australia9 contributionsAs recommended by another local operator we contacted Denis by email. After a prompt reply we (4) chose a five hour private tour. Firstly a view from the lookout and then to Waimea Canyon. Visits to Waimea Wharf and Hanapepe Swinging Bridge were included with many other scenes of beauty. Handy photographic hints were a plus. A visit to his gallery to view his photographic art work was appreciated.Written 15 October 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AdventureTrippingDenver, CO972 contributionsLots of fruits. Papayas are ripe and tasty. Don't buy at the first vendor. Lots of 3 for $5 to be had. Lots if local veggies. Sweet onions are super tasty. One flower vendor who sells out quickly. Not many booths.Written 14 April 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
