Koloa Discount Bookings with USA Accommodation

Although weather was windy and rainy the first few days, it then got sunny and was lovely. A nice beach (Poipu) is very close (loved the sea turtles resting in the sand!) Kalapaki Joe's Happy Hour is a "must do"!! Advertised as "the best Happy Hour" in Hawaii, and we'd have to agree!! Wish biking had been better--bike lanes are very narrow and on quite busy roads.

Koloa and the Kiahuna Plantation development is wonderful. the room we rented was terrible. Great restaurants in the area: Beach House, Brenecke's, Paco's tacos, . Stevenson's Library, Eating House, and Merrimans were all great Plenty of activities - high speed raft, ditch tubing, ATV's, hiking in Waimea. lots of shops.

We had a great stay in the Koloa area and would highly recommend it if you are visiting Kauai. Poipu Beach is a great place to spend a day relaxing, but there are other activities close by if that is your inclination. We had a great tour of the Na Pali coast on a sail/snorkel cruise with Capt. Andy's Boat Tours, and were also in close driving distance to towns of Hanapepe and Waimea for local color on the southern and western parts of the island. The Allerton and McBryde Botanical Gardens was also worth the visit. A bit of a longer drive is to the Polihale State Park to a most beautiful and isolated golden sand beach - the last 4 miles or so are on a bit of a bumpy dirt road that keeps the crowds down, but well worth the visit. There are many dining choices in the Koloa area - we enjoyed Keoka's Paradise in the Poipu Shopping Village and Brennecke's at Poipu Beach for casual dining, and there were many other choices at the resorts in the area. Finally, if you like to snorkel, Lawai Beach is the place to go for the variety of fish. The shore is a bit rocky so it is a little bit of effort to get it, but once in the water it had the best snorkeling on the island, including the beaches on the northern part of the island.

The unit itself was contemporary and very nice! Beautiful view and sound of waves crashing on rocks below. Hated the key retrieval and lock. We had to sleep in our car the first night due to poor communication from Vacasa. We purchased our own groceries. The roads are a bit confusing because there are few street signs. But, we would stay here again!

Koloa is beautiful and quiet, with public efforts to keep it that way. In winter, weather is variable but the South Shore is most dependable and we hit great weather for hikes and beaches. Wide range of restaurant prices and quality. Traffic can be a problem on other parts of the island.

We stayed in the Villas and we were able to make our meals. The Villas have nice blenders in them, we were able to make smoothies with fresh fruit. The pool is amazing, there are actually several pools to go to, all of them are great. There are several hot tubs, which we used every night. The beach, shopping and restaurants are within walking distance. The resort has a complimentary shuttle service which we used on a daily basis, very handy. We were a party of 21 and we would ALL stay here again!
