Marriott's Waiohai Beach Club

Everything about this place is the easiest 5 star review. The grounds are very well manicured, location is great with tons of alternatives walkable, the staff are friendly and excellent, specifically Kyle at the front desk. As stated, all the staff are attentive, friendly, hard working. Kyle was very helpful and thorough when checking us in and was a genuinely very good person. The views are incredible and the beach is incredible. Lots of snorkeling, wildlife and surfing steps off shore.

As always great place. But be warned. The drinks and food at the honu bar are ridiculous. $17 for a drink, and 12 for a beer? I used to get the fish taco's for lunch a few times a week during my stay, but dam I'm not paying $20+ for two street taco's with a bag of chips. Oh well, just buy your liquor and beer at the store and make your own drinks. Also, they went to a cashless bar, so that sucks, hard to tip really great service when you don't carry cash. Unfortunately the employees suffer for that oversight. All and all love this place, just some things to be aware of

Overall the vacation club is very nice. The rooms are specious with nice lining rooms, kitchen and comfy king size beds. The property is very nice with a good size pool. The beach is a bit rough this time of year (October) so we couldn’t really use it. The pool bar is the only restaurant here it’s a bit pricy and closes very early and only has breakfast on the weekends. The room details are a bit misleading we had an ocean view room (see pics). The staff are very friendly and accommodating

Great place to stay. Facilities and beach are first rate. Rooms are basic. Not bad but not on same level as rest room f resort. Not well furnished and biggest disappointment was the 4 thread bare bath towels supplied for a group of 4. Sounds petty, but after the perfection of all other aspects of the resort, this really sticks out after a day at the beach. Holiday Inn Express has a better towel game

The beach was really nice and not overrun like some of the larger places. We love the inner courtyard atmosphere, and the bee able to sit by the pool all day if we wanted to. The evening walk down to the water to watch. The sunset was another highlight . My favorite thing to do was to google top 10 things to do in Kauai. We chose one each day and went out on Epix conversion, (1) the queens bath was awesome hike down. A must do. (2) the fantasy island water fall.(3) the plantation tubing ride just to name a few.

First, if you are handicapped or impaired, don’t expect this resort to have any accommodation for you. You cannot successfully ask for a room near the amenities, as they won’t “promise” anything, which means you get the same random assignment as anyone else. There is no consideration or compassion or anyone. They will change you midweek if something closer comes us, but for people in pain, this extra move comes at a physical cost. This resort is a tales of two cities. Half of the resort is beautiful with gorgeous pools and either ocean views, or views of the beautiful grounds, and with great access to the beach. The other half, while requiring you to walk a bit to the amenities still has access to them. But the room balconies overlook the parking lot, giving you the feel of staying in a Comfort Inn. my last stay at a Comfort Inn cost $130 a night, so if that’s what these rooms cost, then it would be a good deal. However, these are the same “island” view as the rooms which overlook the courtyard. In one case, you will sit out on your balcony and enjoy the beautiful Hawaiian weather, and gorgeous landscape and in the other you are likely to close the blinds so you aren’t looking at a parking lot. Since you have no control over which room you are going to get, proceed with great caution in going to this resort. You may end up with a great room, or you may end up with one of the biggest rip offs of your vacationing experience.
