A dear friend and I stayed at the lovely Garden Island Inn, in Lihue, for only one night, (and will now be for a longer stay on a future trip due to value and our experience!). Unique concept with colorful beautiful local Kauai Art throughout the Inn/Hotel, quaint & quiet garden area, our suite was clean and comfortable beds, with... More

Comfy, clean room with kitchenette, air con and free wifi. A short walk to beach, shops and restaurants. This hotel is very convenient for Lihue airport. Staff very friendly and helpful. It is by a road but we were not disturbed by any noise.

After much deliberation on where to stay on our trip to Kauai, we finally decided on Garden Island Inn and it proved to be a great decision. We arrived to check in and were greeted by a lovely lady in the reception who really set the tone for what would continue to be some of the nicest staff we've encountered... More

We stayed at Garden Island Inn after our flight arrived around 8:30pm. That was too late to drive out to our B&B, so they recommended this place and we were really happy with it. It wasn't until we had explored the entire island that we realized just how good the location is if you're driving a lot. Clean rooms, friendly... More

Garden Island Inn is a great place to stay in Kauai! Right in the heart of Lihue, it is across the street from Kalapaki Beach, and a mile from a great shopping mall (Kukui Grove) as well as stores within walking distance. The staff is wonderful, the units are beautifully decorated with artwork by Camille Fontaine. There are a lot... More

Kauai can be an expensive place in terms of accomodation if you haven't booked anything in advance (mainly "vacational rental" as they call it). So this is a small hotel, well located in Lihue, at a walking distance from a beach that will suit kids. Staff is great, very helpfull and attentive, free use of small boogie boards or other... More

Wouldn't stay anywhere else. In the two weeks I have been here I feel like part of the family. Complementary beach towels & chairs, snorkel equip, books, movies, nutrition bars, cookies and coffee provided in the office. Cosy, quaint, charming. Super friendly staff. A true taste of the ALOHA spirit.
