Fodor's Review:

Dramatically handsome, this classic Hawaiian low-rise is built into the cliffs overlooking an unspoiled coastline. It's open, elegant, and very island-style, making it our favorite of the megaresorts. It has four very good restaurants, including Dondero's, the best on Kauai. Spacious rooms, two-thirds with ocean views, have a plantation theme with bamboo and wicker furnishings and island art. Five acres of meandering fresh- and saltwater-swimming lagoons – a big hit with kids – are beautifully set amid landscaped grounds. While adults enjoy treatments at the first-rate ANARA Spa, kids can check out Camp Hyatt.

Wonderful

Posted by bigredjohn from Kansas City on 3/4/08
For a total beach-front resort package, this place can't be beat. We spent five nights here in February. The grounds are fabulously landscaped, and include pools and lagoons. There's lots of bird life. You'll never forget the view from the terrace bar. The beach is great. The entire resort is classy and quiet. Service isn't always the best--they could use some lessons on running a breakfast buffet. The cable TV system is poor. The place sprawls out so that you have long walks from your room to the restaurants. Be careful picking a room, there are a lot of rooms without good views. But if we were coming back to the island, we'd stay here.
