Apr 17, 2025ONLY MONEY MATTERS
This place could be 5-rated if they didn’t stumble over themselves. Pros: beautiful location on the water, pools, a spa, shops, close to wonderful attractions. Rooms are spacious and well appointed, with nice amenities including a very fancy bidet toilet. NEGATIVES: IT’S ALL ABOUT THE MONEY. The restaurants are way overpriced and the food is marginal at best. 100+ dollars for a marginal fruit plate, small chicken Caesar salad with a hair in it!, and greasy fried vegetables. All were bland. So, maybe they had a bad night? Ok. We go back tonight to get an after dinner drink and listen to live music. It rained and their patio hadn’t opened back up. There were at least five tables or seating areas we could’ve had, but the hostess informs us it’s only for dinner guests (who aren’t there). Not even a far back table. Hyatt wants to nickel and dime tourists. Sad thing is we would’ve had drinks and paid a very appreciative tip. But, Hyatt missed out. Hyatt, you need to fire your Hospitality/Food & Beverage Management. That’s why I will NEVER stay here again. Terrible shame. I would’ve sung Hyatt’s praises here if they’d only given a damn.

Apr 16, 2025Best place to stay
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this vacation. Total relaxation and fun. Great escape from real life. Will do it again for sure. Food was great as well as cocktails. I really enjoyed the different merchants that were available every morning. Allowed me to shop locally while never having to leave the resort.

The Mana of Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort & Spa
Our stay at the Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort & Spa was amazing experience. Outstanding customer service from the time we checked in till the time we left. If there's one person that I would like to single out that would be Tina at the reception desk. She checked us in and found out that we were there for a staycation for our 17th wedding anniversary. Her kind gesture of gifts that were sent to our room were truly appreciated. She made our experience a wonderful one and as local residents, we truly appreciate her mana of Aloha! Shoutout to Victor, Coreen and Alika who also made our stay easygoing. Mahalo nui loa Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort & Spa!

Great resort, but had an unusually poor experience
The resort itself was nice (my third trip there) but this time the front desk staff was not nearly as capable and friendly as usual. There was an issue with check-in that took more than 5 days to resolve and I had to drive the entire process. That being said, the valet, housekeeping and restaurant/bar staff were excellent

Best family hotel in the world
We’ve stayed everywhere with our 3 kids. Atlantis The Royal in Dubai. Crown in Sydney. Bellagio in Vegas. Marina Bay Sands in Singapore. But Grant Hyatt Kauai is the best hotel in the WORLD for families. The food is amazing as are the pools, suite, breakfast buffet and everything else. If you come to Kauai with kids, stay here. It’s number one for a reason. This is our second visit and we will of course be back!
