Kauai Coast Resort at the Beachboy

Location. Nestled amongst coconut trees, plumeria blossoms and a ginger garden, the Kauai Coast Resort at the Beachboy is located in Kapaa, Hawaii. Seven miles north of Lihue town, the resort is convenient to area attractions and recreation, like the Wailua River State Park, just a one-mile walk from the property. The Coconut Marketplace is directly across the street and more shopping and dining is available in Kapaa. Dense rainforests, impenetrable valleys, majestic peaks and perfect golden beaches make Kauai one of Hawaii's most desirable destinations.

The lobby opens onto a garden and a freeform pool complete with a waterfall and rock formations. There is another outdoor pool on the property, and an oceanfront jetted tub offers the ultimate in relaxation. The Hukilau Lanai is an open-air, fine restaurant offering seafood, prime rib and Pacific Rim cuisine made with local ingredients. The Beachboy Bar overlooks the freeform pool and waterfall and features drinks and casual fare. There is a fitness center and a tennis court on site, and spa services are available. Palm trees and meticulous landscaping add to the serenity of the resort, and the 24-front desk staff provides concierge, business and child care services.

Studios offer compact refrigerators and microwave ovens, whereas one-bedroom units feature full kitchens with refrigerators, ranges, dishwashers and microwave ovens. One-bedrooms also boast furnished lanais with garden or ocean views and laundry machines.
