With 50 acres of oceanfront views, spectacular flora and fauna, and a commitment to excellent service, the Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa strikes the perfect balance between the aloha spirit and Hawaiian elegance. Classic Hawaiian-style architecture featuring open courtyards and lush gardens welcomes guests with the true spirit of aloha. All standard rooms are a spacious 500 square feet and feature a lanai with chairs and a table. Guest rooms feature rich mahogany furniture and elegant tropical decor.

Celebrate the sun in an aquatic playground, with a quiet adult pool, meandering manmade rivers, a 150-foot water slide, and a 1.3-acre saltwater lagoon. Golf at Poipu Bay Resort, escape to Anara Spa, or savor the flavors of the island at six restaurants and lounges. The award-winning Anara health and fitness spa is the perfect place to be pampered. In addition, there are classes in fitness, nutrition, health, and stress management. Beauty counseling is also available.

Six restaurants and six bars/lounges provide the perfect places to relax. Try Dondero's for Italian, or Tidepool's for Pacific Rim cuisine. For something a little more casual, there's the Poipu Bay Grill & Bar, or Hale Nalu for poolside dining. Don't forget the Ilima Terrace, which serves a lavish breakfast buffet as well as lunch.

There are myriad activities to choose from during your time at Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort and Spa. Immerse yourself in the charm of the Garden Isle on your Kauai resort vacation. Fill your days with your favorite pastimes: golf on our championship Robert Trent Jones, Jr. course, or perfect your serve at a tennis clinic. Evening brings the spectacle of the torch lighting and the tradition of luau. Whether you prefer action-packed adventures, blissful relaxation, or playing on the sandy beach while the kids take advantage of Camp Hyatt, you'll find a little piece of paradise at our luxurious Kauai resort. There is much to explore on our beautiful island. Outside the resort, activities range from helicopter tours to gallery-hopping and everything in between.

Greening Your Life: Part of the Apple Vacations Greening Your Life initiative, this property uses 100% of its green waste for compost and also sends wet waste from kitchens to pig farmers for feed, which helps to reduce landfill waste considerably. Waste cooking oil is collected and processed into biodiesel fuel, while the 4,000 sq. foot on-site hydroponics farm supplies the resort's restaurants and events with approximately 120lbs. of fresh produce per week.

Landscaping is tended to with biological pest controls over harsh chemical options.

The property also utilizes heat produced by the air-conditioning system by converting the output into heat water for guestrooms and swimming pools. On top of that, nearly 60,000 sq. ft. of grass-covered roofing helps to reduce cooling needs. Guests can also enjoy cashmere-soft robes, which are made from 100% recycled bottles.

    Nice Hotel - Huge Property - Views Wonderful

    This property is a huge luxurious resort. Plan to walk great distance from your room to restaurants and main lobby! Nice breakfast buffet is served. Room was clean and bathrooms huge. Large walk-in shower with attached lanai. Staff was friendly with helpful suggestions on navigating the property.

    Exceptional Experience - Breathtaking Grounds and Views

    I've been dreaming of staying at this hotel for over 20 years, but the high cost has always deterred us. However, we saved up to stay here for 2 nights as a splurge and treat to ourselves. We were not disappointed. Exceptional customer service, friendly staff, and large spacious room. We really enjoyed the beautiful grounds, pool, and ocean view, as well as food at restaurants. Would definitely stay again.

    Lovely setting and rather expensive for the offerings

    Tastefully decorated and beautiful grounds. The Seaview restaurant in the lobby has a spectacular view of the ocean. The rooms were somewhat aged but still very clean and spacious. Staff was mostly charming — except the very unfriendly ladies at the Honolulu Coffee shop early mornings. Ouch girls! There was very little entertainment and little food variety on the property. If you didn’t have a car it would become very monotonous after a few days. I would have expected more for the price.
