Going back to Hotel Coral Reef
We had the best time and will stay there again. Our room was very clean. We enjoyed the banana bread that yhe managers mother made every day. I emjoyed the sunrise every morning from our lanai. Nice to have a safe in the room, too. Loved the walking trail along the beachfront

Some good, some not
View and access to walking path are great. Pool area is nice. Microwave only cooking option. Refrigerator very small and tiny freezer area frozen over. Had to go to front desk to obtain silverware and hair dryer. Room interior shows wear.

Aloha!
Although we stayed only one night, we had a great experience! The staff was very welcoming and went over and above to make sure we were taken care of. They even had bicycles to use for the afternoon! The view was amazing and we were close to shopping and dining.

Lovely welcoming hotel right next to the ocean
Lovely location and the room we purchased for our one night stay was just as described at booking. Very comfortable bed, great addition of two sinks in the bathroom and plenty of coffee in the morning. Having a fridge in the room that really cools was helpful.

Perfect location, needs updated
Amazing location, absolutely perfect..! Too bad it's let down by the condition of this property, this place is tired and needs to be refreshed. I understand that the vibe is intentionally "island casual" in keeping with the surrounding Kapa'a area, but there's relaxed and then there's old and worn out...

An Excellent Property for What Works Best
I loved this property for many reasons. We had a top floor view, although all rooms faced the ocean. We l9ved the free cruizer bikes and that it is next to an 8 mile (mostly flat) bike/ walking path. It has priximity to grocery and restaurants, and the employees are happy, helpful and proactive to go the extra mile to make your query answered.

Great overall for the price, the staff is incredibly sweet and helpful, they’re always looking out for their guests. Amenities are great too, and the cafe connected to the hotel is delicious! Support local and stay here on your next visit :)

This is not a chain hotel and it shows. Super friendly staff, clean comfortable room, just enough amenities so you can explore and enjoy the surrounding area. Perfect location for all kinds of adventures.

Great location but some quirks
Unbeatable location on the ocean with little beach and nice grounds. Good price for location. However, our room wasn’t cleaned when we arrived and we had to wait 2.5 hours for that. We did get a $50 credit for this inconvenience. Our room was comfortable but somewhat dated. Be aware that windows don’t open in rooms so there’s no enjoying the ocean air; you have to use the A/C. Beds were comfy and we slept well but were glad we only stayed 1 night.
Nelle, 1-night trip

Great oceanfront experience!
Coral Reef Hotel checked off all our boxes. Affordable, clean, comfortable, simple and perfect for our 7 night stay in Kauai. Banana bread was a nice addition from the office. We highly recommend. Mahalo!

This property is a hidden gem. Right on the water next to a walking/biking/running trail that goes on for several miles. The rooms are spacious. The staff is so friendly. We would definitely stay here again.
