"Those seeking a "romantic getaway" could not "ask for a better experience" than a stay at this "intimate", "secluded" 121-room "boutique" resort."

The Telegraph8.0
"Ko’a Kea’s dreamy south Kauai location, on the former grounds of Sixties-era Poipu Beach Hotel, has been popular for decades." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The tranquil property offers a more intimate escape than nearby mega-resorts, and because it was constructed on the footprint of a 1960s hotel, it has a superior location that’s closer to the ocean." Full review
