Top Puhi Hotel Reviews

Kaua'i Palms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very helpful staff. Convenient location- right near main roads, walking distance to good and not over-expensive restaurants. Only issue would be for an upgrade to the WiFi. Even with that minor issue, still a great bargain."

Plantation Hale Suites

8/10 Good

"The size of the room was impressive and had a full size refrigerator and stove. But the room had a funky smell(probably from the interior a/c unit) and millipeds ( a worm looking bug with a hundred legs). Two hot tubs on site, but only one was hot and a 100 yards from our room. For the price, it was ok."

Aston Islander on the Beach

8/10 Good

"The beachfront location was perfect, and we really enjoyed being on the east side of the island which allowed us to explore the other parts of the island pretty easily. The grounds are gorgeous and being situated very closely to a couple good restaurants and a small shopping center was very convenient. I would say a few of the staff were less than helpful, and we were not informed that housing only comes on the 5th day of your stay. Since we didn’t know that, we inadvertently put out the “do not disturb “ sign on our 5th day. Once we found out about housekeeping, we asked them to come the following day (day 6). They did NOT come the following day, and when we asked for towels on the morning of our 7th day, we were told that we didn’t need them since housekeeping came. We got the towels and told them housekeeping didn’t need to come, since we were checking out the next day. We left for the day, and returned to find housekeeping had come and replaced our fresh towels with new fresh towels. Another issue that we had was a smoke alarm went off at 2am in the unit right below us, and because they don’t have 24/7 staff on site, it continued to alarm until about 10am. Needless to say, didn’t get any sleep that night. So even with the issues about lack of communication from the staff, and a lack of urgency in getting issues addressed, I would stay there again due to location."

Ko'a Kea Resort on Po'ipu Beach

10/10 Excellent

"If you are planning a stay at Poipu, stay at Ko’a Kea. It is a small boutique property but experienced enough to provide great service, grounds and food. The property was well maintained and clean. It is right at the oceanfront and our room faced it, just steps away. Everything we ate and drank from the bar menu and Red Salt was superb. There are a some things that could be improved that are not Hurricane Lowell related. The bathroom and shower could use updated tile and trim and a double sink. Also, although we did not notice a smell, the rooms are carpeted. Hardwood flooring or similar just feels cleaner. The rooms were tastefully decorated and bed comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay and plan to return!"

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Puhi?

The best time to go to Puhi is during the shoulder seasons of April to June and September to November, when the weather is pleasant and visitor numbers are lower.

During these periods, you'll experience warm temperatures, typically ranging from 24°C to 29°C, with less humidity than the peak summer months. This makes it ideal for exploring the island's natural beauty, such as the nearby Wailua River or the beaches along the coast, without the intense heat or larger crowds.

For couples seeking a relaxing getaway, these months offer a more tranquil experience. You can enjoy outdoor activities like hiking or kayaking with more space and a calmer atmosphere, making it easier to find quiet spots for a picnic or a romantic sunset view.

Families also find these times advantageous, as the slightly cooler temperatures are more comfortable for children participating in outdoor adventures.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline – this is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Puhi hotel for you.

How much is the nightly rate at a Puhi hotel?

Hotel prices in Puhi often vary, but you can find a great deal on Expedia. Different factors affect nightly hotel rates, such as the time of year or the days of the week you want to book. To find the best deals for your stay, be flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
