The Lodge at Kukui'Ula

The Lodge is impeccable... gorgeous grounds, lovely view of Poipu and Spouting Horn, and 5-star ammenities and cottages/homes. I had a fantastic massage at the spa. This is the perfect spot for a family vacation, especially if you want a kitchen and gathering spaces.

Such a lovely place that we look forward to returning to year after year. The service is top-notch. This is true luxury with privacy, and unpretentious and unobtrusive in every way. Our one complaint, which seems like a 'small thing' but is an every day, must-hour disturbance, is the landscaping and golf course maintenance. While the grounds are beautiful, they require an ARMY of landscapers, starting at 6am EVERY day of the week (and weekend) with gas-powered equipment of every imaginable kind. This goes on most of the morning and into the afternoon, every day, including Sunday. Switching to electric machines would not only be much better for the environment but make a huge difference for the overall guest and member experience.

Top notch destination. Lodging, service, staff, golf is all 5+ stars. Grounds are impeccable. Have been visiting the Lodge at Kukuiula over the holidays for seven years in a row. My favorite place to vacation by far. Kukuiula definitely leaves no crumbs!

Just returned from a week at Kukui'ula and I have no idea what the negative reviews are all about here. We rented a 4 bedroom casita and it was spectacular. Well appointed and maintained. Very clean. Yes it is low season so we had to walk 5 steps to order a drink at the pool because there was no one waiting on the area. Oh my!! What a tragedy ;-) Are people really that lazy?? The staff at the lodge was very helpful and courteous and happy to assist with any questions or needs. We will be returning in the near future!!!

We stayed in Villa 4 for 7 nights in early November 2024. We had 8 adults and 2 children under 3.5. From the Lodge to the Villa to the pools, the experience was 5-star in every possible way. The Grounds: The grounds are so well manicured and curated - absolutely stunning. They were incomparable to anything I've experienced on any of the islands. Vast spaces make the property feel private and exclusive. Getting around was easy, and we always wanted to take our time. The facilities are all well cared for and of the highest quality. My 3.5 year old and I had a blast swimming in the big pool and sliding down the slide (100 times). The way it was designed to be beach-like is awesome. The Villa: Comfortable beds throughout. Incredible views. Luxury living at its finest. Everything about the Villa was stunning. These were clearly NOT cheap builds. The internet worked well for the 4 days my partners and I met. The Service: We loved our dinner at the main restaurant the first night. Service there, and across the entire property, was welcoming and helpful. Both text and call lines were quick to be answered and help was received in a timely fashion if needed. Alohas abound! Why to stay here: If you want privacy, views, gorgeous grounds, a very accommodating staff, and that 5-star Aloha life. This is the place. Why not to stay here: You're looking for a party. You want to mingle, socialize, and otherwise have access to a lot stores and restaurants within walking distance (everything in Poipu is literally a 5-min drive away) It is not cheap to stay here, but after experiencing it, I really can't see staying anywhere else on Kauai.

From start to finish our stay at the Lodge was the perfect family vacation! Nyleen was amazing as our concierge. So helpful and responsive. The Lodge was immaculate. The grounds so lush and well maintained. The restaurants served delicious food with local twists. The pool was our perfect end of the day spot- never wanted to leave! Shhhhh- almost don’t want to post so it could be a secret.
