Reviews for Kauai Coast Resort at the Beachboy
Review 1:Too selling-oriented staff when it comes to join activities to a discount and in return show interest in the resort apartment association we had no interest in.
Review 2:Nice location just by the beach. Spacious apartment.
Review 3:Do not like the early 10am checkout. Would be nice to have more balcony chairs for four to enjoy view of garden and ocean.
Review 4:Room design was comfy and well laid out.
Review 5:Asked for early check in, waited 4 hours and ended up checking in at regular check in time which was 4pm.
Review 6:The rooms were spacious and well equipped. Lovely restaurant and lounge. Beautiful view of the ocean from our room. Allowed us to check out 1 hour late, 11am.
Review 7:Ideal location to tour the island of Kauai. Staff were friendly and were always available to assist. The resort is in a superb surrounding and is idyllic for relaxation and serenity.
Review 8:Had a room initially at the end of the building overlooking parking lot when maintenance was occuring - noise and not much of a view. Mary helped us out and moved us to a better room the next day. Very pleased ultimately.
Review 9:Wonderful traditional Hawaiian Hotel; friendly staff, clean facilities, great location, and great value
Review 10:Throughout our stay the parking lot where we were told to leave our car at check-in was undergoing maintenance and repairs. We were constantly asked to move our car. Moreover, the noise and smell from the site was interfering with our son's sleep. The hotel didn't look full at all so they could have easily given us another room or at least explained properly where to park.
Review 11:The room was fantastic. It was huge and had everything we needed. There is a little baby beach nearby where kids can safely play. There are plenty of nice local restaurants nearby, and the location of the hotel is great for exploring all sides of Kauai.
Review 12:The pressure from the Shell Vacation staff to buy a timeshare was intense, and continued throughout our trip. Honestly, it was bad enough that we will not return.
Review 13:Staff was excellent and the property was beautiful and meticulously clean.
Review 14:If you want to find things, you could complain that the kitchen could be a bit better equipped. But you won't be missing anything dramatically. Also it would be nice to have a sun shade on the balcony. But to be fair, we've also never asked for one.
Review 15:Please note. The resort is not a hotel! It is a time-share facility and you will book a condo and not a full-service hotel room with included meals and daily service! Overall, we were fully satisfied and loved the stay. If you compare it to a 5* hotel resort, you sure will find things to complain. But it isn't a hotel and we were not looking for one. - Nice condo (ours had 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom and a bigger kitchen/living room) - Beds were very comfortable - Everything was clean - Furniture was "old/traditional" style but very well maintained/new - Air condition worked good (one was leaking, but staff took care instantly) - Cleaning service was good (twice a week) - All rooms have a partial sea view, some have full sea view - Pool area, area in total was nice and very well maintained - Barbecues were provided for free Kauai is far too nice to stay in your facility. We only did it for 2 days in our 10 days stay (and I've been to Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Caribic, and a lot of places in Europe).
Review 16:3rd floor no lift, no help with bags. Stairs and hallways smelt of stale urine. Dated decor (fine) and very old appliances. Poor wifi. Horrible service from lady at the poolside bar, seems to be a very cliquey group there. Small pool. Dirty sun loungers.
Review 17:Kapa'a is a beautiful part of the world but there are better places to stay. Good air con though. And nice hammocks.
Review 18:We liked our condo with garden view but we also had a partial ocean view which was amazing. We loved the restaurant on site. It was also nice to have the marketplace for shopping so near. Everything turned out great.
Review 19:Perfect stay, large and completely equipped apartment, quiet environment suitable for walks or jogging along the shore or just enjoying the sea view in beach chairs and hammocks, grocery shop across the street, larger shopping centres 1 block away. Ground floor apartments really recommendable - direct access to greens.
Review 20:They don't clean your room every day, they tidy it. The bathroom was not cleaned once in our 7 night stay. I had to specifically ask them to come in to clean it and remove the mold that was growing around the tub and tile.
Review 21:The grounds were well maintained and the pool facility was nice.
Review 22:We appreciated the courtesy of an early check in and a late check out. Wow. Unusual these days. We were visiting from O'ahu along with other family members who had their own rooms for our great niece's one year baby luau (actually just a small barbecue by your pool) and we decided that the next time we visit our niece we will probably stay with you instead of at her house because your prices were reasonable for the value and we loved the grounds and the landscaping. Thank you!
Review 23:liked everything. it was a good location to get around the rest of the island. I liked that the employees didn't bother us trying to go out of their way to help us.
Review 24:Check in was to be at 4pm. I requested an early checkin day before and arrived at hotel around 1pm. Room was not ready but was told the front desk would call me at pool when room ready. At 4pm still no call I went to desk and was told the room was not ready. It would be another 30-40 min. I was offered a room on 2nd or 3rd floor in a hotel with NO elevators. I explained that I had been waiting for the ground floor room and that is what I had booked. Staff did not care one bit. Zero customer service. I took the room on 2nd floor as I had dinner reservations and was not all certain my room would ever be ready. There's NO housekeeping at all during stay as its a timeshare property, just awful! Pool was very small for a resort and the beach was very rocky and with trash and other debris. Overall a terrible choice on beautiful Kauai!
Review 25:The room was of nice size, the bed comfortable and the kitchen and washer/dryer were nice.
Review 26:My only real winge was the Internet. The resort advertised free internet but it was very slow if not available at all. When ask the reception staff they didn't want to know about it.
Review 27:The room was spacious. The resort was located on the beach with hammocks and plenty of lounges so you could soak up the sun or lay in the shade. The spa was a great temperature and there were plenty of places to purchase food in walking distance.
Review 28:- wifi offered is very poor, you can hardly work with it, they are pushing you to buy "premium"
Review 29:- overall very nice resort - very well equipped apartment - beautiful pool
Review 30:The time share overall manager we had when we were having our presentation was rude She came during our presentation and was confrontational The shower curtain was broken and discusting The toilet seat was broken When they cleaned our room they didnt leave extra toilet paper or kleenex The mattresses on the pull out couches wete really bad
Review 31:We like the location and parking ease We liked the pool The conciergs were extremely helpful and nice The check in and check out clerks were great
Review 32:We loved this property; right on the ocean, great natural grounds and helpful, cheerful staff. Near a grocery store/pharmacy, but off the main road. Couldn't have been better!
Review 33:The pushy time-share pitch when we're tired from a long plane ride with no food or sleep and we just want to go to our room was frustrating.
Review 34:The view was amazing and the condo was clean and comfortable. The restaurant was excellent and the pool was beautiful.
Review 35:The air conditioner in the master bedroom area didn't seem to be working correctly, so it got a little stuffy with doors closed.
Review 36:The resort was quiet and very clean. Parking is very convenient.
Review 37:The only thing I can maybe think of is the wifi isn't very strong.
Review 38:Great place to stay! The staff were super friendly and helpful. The bed was outrageously comfortable. The hotel was very clean and cozy! Loved the pool and hot tub as well! We will definitely be back!
Review 39:1. Cracked/crumbling tile in bathroom. 2. Convertible sofa/bed very old and soiled, worn and dirty arm rest. 3. We checked in after 20:00 hrs, kitchen/restaurant was closed.
Review 40:Good room with view of the ocean and very quiet.
Review 41:Although it is a shell vacation club property, I was not interested in the timeshare aspect so said no to the sales staff repeatedly. An elevator would be nice for those with large bags.
Review 42:Central location, great amenities, friendly customer service (front desk, bartender, waitress), good restaurant on site. Did not try breakfast since it was very convenient to cook.
Review 43:it was not a garden villa as stated in the webpage but rather a condo on the 3.floor ,also all interior is back from the 70/80s and need a overhaul.
Review 44:The convenient location close to everything and the self catering amenities in the condo .
Review 45:Called the day before arrival and asked if they had an early check in available, I was told no but if I was in the area to stop by and preregister and if the room was available I could check in. We arrived at the hotel at 3:00 pm, the room was not ready so we preregistered and returned at the normal check in time which is 4:00 pm, the room was still not ready and was told they would call me when it was. About 4:30 received a call that the room was ready so we returned. The hotel staff gave us $20.00 dollars of free drink coupons to use at the pool bar (which closes at 5:45 pm by the way). Later on went to dinner, arrived at the restaurant at 9:01 pm only to be told they closed 1 minute ago and we could not come in, however, we could sit at their bar and "maybe" get desert. I will not be returning to this establishment in the future
Review 46:The room was nice and clean and the bed was comfortable.
Review 47:Pool area is small for the size of the facility and was essentially "owned" by kids and their pool toys due to crowding.
Review 48:Rooms are spacious and well-appointed. Resort is very clean and staff is helpful and courteous.
Review 49:Wish the beach was more swimmable, but overall great. Wish there were elevators.
Review 50:Skinny but very secluded beach on the property. Very quiet and lovely.
Review 51:Furnishings are a bit dated
Review 52:Great location, with easy accessibility to all parts of the island. Nice grounds, with views of the ocean. Comfortable and quiet.
Review 53:The room was way overpriced for the size and location and amenitites.
Review 54:I loved the location but you are hidden. There should be a sign on the Highway with your name on it and another sign on the back road. It should say Kauai Coast Resort Beachboy - there are multiple Kauai resorts on the highwaqy.
Review 55:The restaurant on site was a little pricy so you wouldn't want to eat there every night.
Review 56:The 2 bedroom Villa we stayed in was quite large and beautiful. At the time of booking I didn't even realize it came equipped with a washing machine and dryer with free pouches of detergent. We were also supplied with popcorn and juice. The rooms were very clean and the bathrooms were very large. The grounds were nice with hammocks, a pool, sauna, and cozy "firepits" near the front of the resort with couches around them where you could relax late at night with a drink.
Review 57:My wife and I were able to check-in early and store our bags while we went sight-seeing. Received a phone call that our room was ready earlier than expected. Room was very comfortable, washer/dryer was a big plus. Staff was very friendly, outside facilities were picturesque. Only one night, but thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Review 58:No elevator but wasn't a big deal since they have someone there to help if you needed it.
Review 59:Location of the room, relaxing resort, friendly, clean and spacious. Very commonadating. Did receive a 10% off to a local grocery store. Used it and saved money! They were updating the resort while we were there which was nice to see.
Review 60:We left Maui a day ahead of Hurricane Ana and lucked into this resort. Everything was gorgeous, spacious, and clean. The kitchen had everything you needed. There was a washer and dryer in the unit. There was only one bathroom, but it was set up with double sinks, which was very handy. The sofa bed was actually a queen and was relatively comfortable.
Review 61:The facilities feel very dated-- musty hallways with smelly carpet and no circulation because of the sealed windows-- so there were always flies in the hallways. We were a young couple and this hotel felt like it was more for the much older crowd. The staff is a bit sleepy, from the moment we got there it was like they were on vacation. When we got to our room the phone was buzzing and you have to set up this annoying voicemail. Who even needs voicemail when on vacation. The phone would not stop beeping loudly and it took me 20 minutes of fumbling with the phone to figure out how to stop it -- and only to realize the concierge at the front desk had left two messages telling us to come down so she could give us brochures. We had just traveled a long way to get the kauai so it was not what we were expecting on our arrival! The facilities need updating -- everything really feels very dated. I wouldn't go back here, not recommended for younger couples.
Review 62:Great views, great location, nice landscaping in gardens with lots of places to watch the sunrise, large rooms . Property has a lot of potential but needs updating.
Review 63:Nothing.
Review 64:Our room was huge, comfortable, and the price was right. Staff was incredibly courteous and helpful. The on-premises restaurant provided one of the best meals we have ever had.
Review 65:We were inconvenienced by such a late check in. We would like to have checked in early afternoon and couldn't get our room until almost 5pm.
Review 66:The room was beautiful and we enjoyed the facilities.
Review 67:No major issues!
Review 68:Overall a great resort. Had a garden view room on the 3rd (top) floor, which provided surprisingly good ocean views (partial). Very happy with the decision to stay at the beachboy. Pool isn't huge, but very nice and much better (and larger) than the pools at neighboring properties. Not a great swimming beach, but that's pretty normal for Kauai and there are sandy areas within a short walk.
Review 69:the hot tub jets did not work beach was rocky the pull out couch not good to sleep on took a while to figure out the air had to latch sliding door for air to work needed more cleaning then 1 time no elevator for 3rd floor would have liked ocean front on 1st floor with swimming beach but you are in hawaii it is hard to complain!
Review 70:room was cozy location near kapaa people were friendly your in Hawaii what's not to like food great front desk and concierge nice and staff maintenance and maids pool bar and all were great pool was nice and felt good but could have been bigger with a slide but loved the waterfall that was awesome.
Review 71:For a two night stay, housekeeping does not clean the room. There was also an enormous cockroach on the wall, on our first night, and the staff called at 8 AM the next morning to be sure we had our welcome packet. This seemed odd given that we were trying to sleep off jet lag. Finally, because it was a first floor unit, there was a musty smell.
Review 72:Beautifully appointed, and the bed was very comfortable. The grounds were lovely with beautiful landscaping.
Review 73:Nothing!
Review 74:The place was amazing! Excellent in all aspects...large rooms, great kitchen and living room area, plus a fantastic restaurant on site for evening dining. They even allowed us a late check-out..noon rather than 10 am.
Review 75:Great location beautiful
Review 76:Too much pressure from booking agents trying to make us book activities and attending timeshare meetings...
Review 77:1. No elevator. 2. TV cabinet s/b located in center of wall so it is visible for others than those on the chesterfield.
Review 78:The restaurant.
Review 79:there were no spices in the unit. it would be appreciated is basic were provided.
Review 80:great location, a/c system worked very well
Review 81:Very pushy on time share. Rooms were older style from the 80's. Wouldn't recommend this place
Review 82:The room had a musty smell but we bought a few candles and it was good
Review 83:The rooms were big and there was also dishes and a full kitchen
Review 84:No complaints
Review 85:Location to the beach
Review 86:WE LOVED THE PRICE AND THE SUITE WAS FANTASTIC.
Review 87:Restaurant closed on Monday

Review 107:Wifi spotty.
Review 108:Friendly and very helpful staff. Great room with all amenities. Seafront. Free wifi. Free parking. Excellent price.
Review 109:No elavator!!
Review 110:It was a 2 bedroom!
Review 111:We stayed here as a family group of 20 for our wedding in May 2014 andwe were thrilled with everything at the Beachboy. When we checked in wewere told we were upgraded to an ocean view 2 bedroom! (We had booked1bed garden view) we were thrilled! The room was beautiful and directlyon the water. We had our ceremony on the grounds and the reception atthe Hukilau Lanai- the best meal we had on the entire trip. We stayed at2 other hotels after the Beachboy and nothing compared, we wouldrecommend it to everyone and we can't wait to return.
Review 112:The sliding door in the main bathroom in room 1109 did not work. Also, there were areas that didn't seem very clean.
Review 113:Great location and good sized room.
Review 114:That we didn't stay longer - that's truly it! (we had no problem with the fact that check in is not until 4pm as we arrived late and they extended the 10am checkout to 12noon - I can see that might be a concern for some people). But everything else and the great price!!!! make up for that - big time!
Review 115:We planned a somewhat last minute trip to Kauai from Oahu for a relative's wedding. I searched on the internet via booking.com rather than doing the typical fly-drive-hotel kamaaina package. Kauai Coast Resort had the best reviews and we booked there vs. Aston Islander on the Beach as it ended up being about the same price with the resort fee (which is just annoying) so I picked the beachboy resort. I was a little skeptical after reading a so-so review from one person and seeing the pics from that person. However, the reviews overall were great. As soon as we got in, the rental car rep said it was a good place as did the other local people we spoke to (grocery store etc). We were so very, very pleased when we arrived that I immediately took pics of the room and shared on Facebook. Being that we are locals, we know what is out there (and I have been to Kauai many, many times - just not Kapaa side for awhile). We are already planning to return in the next few months - just because. Next trip my mother takes to visit us (she is from IL and Kauai is the only island she has not yet experienced), we are booking the same place - Kauai Coast Resort at the Beachboy! I was just amazed at how great the place was for such a great price! The only complaint was that we were only there 2 days. The staff was wonderful, the 1 bdrm garden view was huge for a "hotel room" and we had a view of the ocean (we arrived at night and good hear the ocean from our room as soon as we opened the lanai door)! I can't say enough about this place but have been promoting it to all my local and mainland friends!!!! It was one of those few nice surprises you seem to get these days! Mahalo!!!
Review 116:You couldn't swim in the pool just lounge. The fitness center was minimal and we sat in on a timeshare presentation...didn't realize it was a timeshare facility and the guy was very misleading with info on the island economy, and hotel occupancy. Place was dated with bathroom needing some repairs and some cleaning in the kitchen area. The environment was quiet and bed comfortable but certainly didn't see the value of a timeshare there.
Review 117:If you just wanted to sit and enjoy the view then it was fine. The restaurant was quite good.
Review 118:The sales representative was very aggressive and pushy, therefore we avoided resort tour, although some discounts were offered.
Review 119:We liked spacious and well maintained room, nice garden and pools.
Review 120:Check in time was pretty late, 4pm. Our flight came in earlier in the day (10am) and we weren't able to check in earlier like we wanted. But it was a minor thing, we ended up entertaining ourselves for the hours between.
Review 121:Location was amazing, right in the middle so you can go out to Waimea or Hanalei no problem. The room was fantastic! We got upgraded from a studio to a 1-bedroom and everything you would ever need for a long-ish term stay is there for you. There was nothing that was left out. The room was also very clean and comfortable, had no troubles sleeping. The other great thing was that it's just so quiet and peaceful. There's not as many people roaming around the resort and it ended up being such a relaxing stay. Definitely coming here again, when the opportunity comes!
Review 122:Onsite restaurant was mixed quality.
Review 123:Upgraded to a garden view suite, best (inexpensive) upgrade ever. We spent most of our time visiting, but could tell the onsite facilities were great. Location is awesome, right on the beach.
Review 124:The couch bed was very uncomfortable and very little space for clothes for 2nd couple. Did not have furniture that reclined for that extra comfort for people who enjoyed reading and relaxing.
Review 125:Very nice staff and housekeeping provided outstanding service. the master bedroom was quite comfortable, including the bed.
Review 126:No complaints at all.
Review 127:Beautiful location, and only 10 mins from airport. The hotel restaurant is rated as one of the best in Kuaui. No kidding, it's fantastic. Rooms are extremely spacious and are especially perfect for families. Everything is super clean. The pool is really nice too.
Review 128:Fitness facility could use some upgrading - most of the equipment was broken. Don't order food from the bar.... Takes FOREVER to get anything. A hot dog will take 45 minutes.
Review 129:The condo we rented was AMAZING!! Great price for what you get. Friendly staff, extremely well kept, really clean pool and resort. Awesome market with free hula shows just a 45 second walk away.
Review 130:The people on the floor above us could be quite noisy from early in the morning, obviously thin floors and every noise was very loud
Review 131:We had a wonderful time at this resort it was very clean, spacious we had a 2 bedroom apartment and a scenic ocean view. The grounds were superb and shops and cafes within walking distance, so a good central location. We hired a car via the resort and our tours. We would recommend this resort to anyone
