Pros: Inexpensive and fun activity to do while visiting Kauai Cons: Water temps are in the low 70's
If you ask people who have been to Kauai what they did, most will tell you they went snorkeling. As with all of Hawaii, snorkeling is big business. You'll find stopping to snorkel on the way to other points of interest easy to do. Unfortunately,...

Pros: beautiful, clean Cons: expensive
I feel the need to write a seperate article on the resort because you can spend an entire vacation in the resort alone. My previous opinion was on the island in general. This one is more about the specifics of the resort.

Eight days in paradise! Lying in a hammock watching the wispy white clouds sliding overhead ...

Pros: the scenery, the dolphins, the snorkel tour at the end Cons: lack of control, can't stop if you see something you like cuz it's a tour
On your trip to Kauai, make sure you schedule a trip to the Na Pali (the cliff) Coast. This coast is practically inaccessible by land which makes the scenery virginal and unspoiled. I would suggest a boat or a kayak trip of a day or half a day. Check...

Pros: Beautiful and diverse island landscape. Wonderful, friendly locals; unspoiled. Cons: Road construction down sometimes crowded highway.
The Kauai Coast Resort is exceptionally reasonably priced and has been a well kept secret (until now). It used to operate as a hotel but was bought out a year or two ago by Shell Vacation Properties and completely revamped. The resort now operates as a...

Pros: "Beautiful" is an understatement. Cons: No nightlife to speak of.
The first time you set foot on Kauai, you will wonder what took you so long. And you will want to return again and again. It is one of the most romantic and beautiful places on Earth. Perfect for a honeymoon or anniversary.
Since my husband...

Pros: Indescribable Beauty Cons: Very expensive
My wife and I travelled to Kauai in April of 1999. We flew in at dusk, so we saw the breaking surf from the air and then darkness settled in. We took a taxi across the island to the Princeville resort, which was breathtaking even at night. The lobby...

Pros: We're going! Cons: Sounds like there are none!
We're going to Kauai in just a few weeks. I diligently sat here for 4 hours and reviewed all the reviews and made this compendium. It's info from the other reviews that I wanted to be sure to have. Thanks to all the great reviews. When we get back,...

Pros: Beautiful, great weather, not overcrowded, friendly islanders, nice beaches
Cons: Limited nightlife, chickens running everywhere, traveling by car can be slow
My husband and I chose Kauai as the island we wanted to visit when we were celebrating our 13th anniversary. I had read from Frommer's Guide and Lonely Planet that this was the least spoiled of the islands, more traditional, and had a multitude of...

Pros: Gold Crown Resorts; Airport Check-in Cons: Pahio resorts lack air conditioning and ocean views.
Pahio Resorts have four beautiful "Gold Crown" timeshare developments on the island of Kauai; three are located in Princeville and one near Lihue. Our family reserved three two bedroom units at the newest property in Princeville back in early...

Pros: Lots to see and do Cons: North end of the island is un-swimmable
Our first trip to Kauai took place on December 14-28, 2000, so I'm no expert on Kauai. However, some of my observations could come in handy for those of you visiting the island for the first time in winter. I strongly recommend you research any...

Pros: Lush, liveable, charming Cons: pricey
My wife and I spent 2 weeks in Hawaii for our honeymoon in October 1998. The first week in Maui, the second in Kauai. While Maui holds a lot of interest, when we go back to Hawaii, it will be to Kauai. Why?
-- This island is truer to the...

Pros: beautiful lush greenery, lots of nature, beautiful beaches, friendliest people, stunning scenery Cons: high gas and grocery prices, island is very small
My trip to Kaua'i was one of the best adventures I’ve ever had. Here are ten reasons why. Have a great time!
The first thing you should do is get the Ultimate Kaua'i Guidebook. (http://mynook.epinions.com/book_mu-2961250) It is the only...

Pros: Beautiful, great things to do, very relaxing Cons: EXPENSIVE!
Review Topic: Overview
Kauai is my favorite of all the Hawaiian islands. It isn't full of annoying tourists, and the population is only about 5000. Usually you can take your time, and there aren't too many people around. ...
