Why We Love This Deal
Save up to 50% on stays of five nights or more at the The Royal Sonesta Kauai Resort Lihue through May of next year. Situated on Kalapaki Beach, this hotel is lauded for its enviable location and expansive oceanfront pool.

But, because you're a Travelzoo member, the parking and amenities fees are waived, and you'll even nab a dining credit, too—for a five night stay, that totals more than $580 in added value.

Of the Hawaiian islands, Kauai is arguably the quietest and most relaxing; it's also the oldest (between four and five million years old), and it shows through its natural beauty and rich local history
There are restaurants serving breakfast, lunch and dinner at the resort, including a seaside restaurant with stunning views
Hiking is one of the most popular activities on Kauai: from the Napali Coast to Hanakapiʻai Falls and Waimea Canyon, which is also called the Grand Canyon of the Pacific
The island's culinary scene has grown over the years; you'll find traditional Hawaiian staples throughout the island—along with gastropubs and breweries—and local favourites, including Hanalei Taro and Juice and Pono Market
It's just as accessible as the other islands, with nonstop flights from Seattle, the Bay Area and SoCal

Facility is great. Rooms need to more reflect ’resort’ status: no glassware, no drinking glasses, no wine glasses, no opener. All paper, I.e. use for coffee. Resorts are all about treatment and how you feel being there.

There was a lot of construction, itself unbothersome. However, the breakfast buffet and Kukui's being in temporary spaces was disappointing. The set-up for each was very plain, barebones and visually unpleasant. All of the staff were wonderful. Self-parking was pretty easy. The gift shop, Lamont's was fabulous, but fridges need updating. My husband forgot his comb and asked room service for a cheap one, which they didn't carry for guests. The kiddie pool and big pools were not too crowded, but could use resurfacing. The gardens were absolutely beautiful and it was stroller/wheelchair accessible.

Great location, beautiful views, pool and gardens.. The food served at the sushi restaurant was top notch. The servers and all staff were great. Housekeeping tidies room every other day, not daily. Total dissatisfyer for the price of the room.

Great pool, good restaurants but it is pricey. Our deal waived the resort fee and had a one-time $50 food credit which helped with 1 breakfast.

The Royal Sonesta Resort was a wonderful place to stay, especially since I was by myself. The Island of Kauai is beautiful and easy to navigate if you choose to rent a car. I was very impressed with the staff. They were very friendly and very helpful. I absolutely loved my room, and in general, loved everything about the resort.

Hotel very tired and dated. Our floor had an awful smell when you got off of the elevator. JThe food at restaurant was not good and for the money the Travelzoo deal for the stay was not worth it. Disappointed that I had booked here as a result.

The Resort itself is great, we liked it. However the reason I wouldn’t go back is there is NO microwave in the room or glass & or plastic glasses we didn’t enjoy drinking wine out of a coffee cup. . When we checked in they didn’t tell us room service was every other day which was fine but didn’t leave enough coffee for the second morning. Trivial I know but when you can’t reheat your beverage & or they want you to spend at the resort instead of heating up a ham & cheese croissant. Well I don’t like corporate. We didn’t take it out on the staff though & tipped well.

The construction noise all day was not my idea of a restful quiet vacation. It started before 8a and went until early evening around 5p. I would like to receive a partial refund, as the noise was unacceptable and I was not informed about the construction activity prior to our arrival. Food was also not great and pricey for the value.

We were upsold the minute we checked in and they pushed back on the travelzoo deal at every step. Staff constantly pushed back on the deals to the point we just paid more to stop arguing.

Property was lovely and staff was beyond kind and helpful. Loved the fitness center. Wish there would've been more activities on premise (or that we'd been given a schedule upon check-in) But we very much enjoyed the pool area and the koi pond.
Other Comments
Our 'garden view' room was virtually behind the maintenance building and was not lovely to look upon every morning. The view was mostly of the loading dock and of the barriers put in place to shield the rest of the property from the unsightliness that we had a front row seat to. There was constant noise from maintenence vehicles backing up ( BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP)...it was maddening and caused us to keep the door to the balcony closed which was more than unfortunate. We loved the property but definitely felt pushed to the back in the undesirable area and I will probably not return because of that.
