The stay here after hurricane Iniki was awesome. Even though it was rough living for a while, they were so friendly and accommodating for us. It was beautiful after the hurricane so I can only imagine after the renovation how it must be awesome now. I would love to come back. The location is perfect, right in between the north and south shore. ...

Great value, location and charm

We have stayed at Islander on the Beach every year for the past three years and have never been disappointed! The rooms are cozy, clean and comfortable. They have a lot of amenities that other hotel rooms do not. These are like studio condos! And the location can't be beat. Centrally located and across the parking lot to the Coconut ...
My wife and me stayed here for our honeymoon and we were very satisfied! This place is very covenient - location, price, service. The staff was very nice. Rooms are great and the water is nearby, people were surfing and swimming. Located in great place so entire island can be traveled. No complaints from us!

I loved the ease of parking and the convenience/location of the hotel. The staff was friendly and the room was very clean. We have a toddler who made some crumbs on the floor, but it was vacuumed up when we got back from our day out. We got a fourth floor room with very high ceilings. We also got the local newspaper in the morning, which was a ...
This was our second stay at the RQIOTB. Our first was over 10 years ago. The rooms have been updated since that trip.
Being somewhat in the middle of Kauai, it was very convienent to get around the island. Although, we did notice that there is much more traffic now, then 10 years ago.
The staff was ok, but not very outgoing or ...

The worst in Kauai
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/23/08
This place is not what we where expecting. We only booked this place for the good reviews online. I recommend you to read the bad reviews also. The first couple of days was ok because we where so busy with the tours that we only went to sleep there. Then we decide to go to the pool and notice that if you make friends with the bartender she will ...

Spirit of Aloha at the Islander
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/26/08
My husband and I loved this hotel. It was reccomended to us by a travel agent friend. The hotel staff is very friendly. It is newly remodeled and all the bedrooms have their own lanai. Even our "garden view room" you could see the ocean and the pool - what a great view. The coconut coast is the place to stay in Kauai. Its close to a lot ...
My husband and I stayed at the Islander on the Beach for nearly two weeks. Everything was perfect. We had a beach view room that overlooked the pool. We were able to buy fresh fish and grill it by the pool and buy fresh vegetables from the Farmer's Market and cook them in the microwave. We became on a first-name basis with our housekeeper, so ...
We loved the place, except for a couple of issues.
The staff was great.. helpful, knowledgable and not stuffy. Steve the bartender is a great guy!
The room was nice. But, we were bitten by something.. I've been home for a month and the bites still itch!!!!!
The food was way over priced in the restruant. $17 breakfast is a bit much...
The food in the bar area was good and well priced.
The pool was too cold to swim in....

A good honest hotel
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/28/07
We've visited Kaua'i twice and each time stayed at the Aston Islander. It's not the flashiest hotel, but it is clean, friendly, has a fabulous location on the coast and is definitely good value for money. The rooms are spacious and most have good partial views of the ocean.
The pool is nice and clean, the beach is uncluttered, and ...
