Kauai Exclusive - Pali Nui Suite Overlooking Kalapaki Bay

With breathtaking vistas of one of Kauai’s most active bays, revel in the majestic scenery of paradise from your private and pristine, seaside perch. Watch cruise ships sail into the harbor, whales spout and breech in the distance, dolphins play in the waves and surfers ride the swell.

Stunning views accentuate each room, while hardwood accents create a harmonious feel throughout this one-bedroom, one-bath suite.

Experience island living in this unique and exclusive location:
- Located in Lihue (East Shore).
- Regal estates perched upon a cascading seaside cliff in an exclusive area.
- Nearby miles of scenic walking paths, world class golf, Duke’s Canoe Club Restaurant and Kalapaki Bay itself.

Perfectly positioned to accommodate the desires of everyone, the East Shore of Kaua’i is rich with possibilities. Flanked by epic coastline and threaded together by the public bike path, this centralized location is the social hub of Kauai. Having recently experienced a trendy transformation, Old Kapaa Town maintains its historic charm, yet boasts novel offerings. The towns of Anahola, Wailua and Lihue also comprise the East Shore, and carry their own unique appeal. With diverse establishments and activities, you can explore cafes, restaurants, boutiques, adventure tours, aquatic explorations and more on Kauai’s East Shore.

One of the most revered places on earth, Kaua’i inspires a state of awe within all of us. Brimming with beauty, the oldest inhabitable Hawaiian island has both withstood the test of time and matured into a land of fertile abundance. Lush jungles, white sand beaches and the alluring ambiance of aloha enchant each moment. Offering exceptional accommodations, adventures, cuisine and culture, vacationing on Kaua’i is a dream come true.

Please note: This property does not include Marriott/Royal Sonesta resort amenities and privileges.

Needs repairs.
Pali Nui Suite lower level. if you're young and don't mind trapping up and downstairs I suppose it's OK. There are some issues with the place starting with the air conditioning units. This unit has two bedrooms two bath a bath has been converted into a storage unit. Three wall/window air conditioning systems that sound like the bearings are going out of the fans. When contacting the rental agency about getting it fixed, they said that the owner would be here next month replacing all three of them. I have skepticism there. In the guest bathroom, which is the one upstairs the tub is rusting around the wall. around the floor there is Rust in seepage. The shower handle has to be forced to be turned. Do you want to find your water setting and then to adjust it you have to hit it with a palm your hand to make it move hotter or colder. The tub did have a door on it. They removed it the top door hanger as a converted shower curtain hanger. This allows approximately 10 to 12 inches of shower curtain hanging down into the tub. Very easy to slip on. The tub has non-skid taping in it. Well, the non-skid part has disappeared. I'm 79 years old first night here I slipped on it fell out of the tub. I have bruises up and down my back and my butt to prove it. I notified management and the response was never happened before. Maybe it hasn't happened to me and that's something that needs to be addressed. There are no smoke alarms/detectors this unit. Which, according to state code is again

Price and location
1The location of property was great with a balcony that overlooked the bay. Beach was within walking distance as were Dukes restaurant and Skinny Mikes with great shaved ice and ice cream. The place is basic, no bells or whistles, but it was very pleasant and was clean, beds were comfortable. It was a reasonable price.

Perfect Location. Gorgeous view
Really enjoyed our 50th wedding anniversary here. Property a little worn and used but made it feel more like a home, not a hotel. Super service when we accidentally locked ourselves out one night. Highlights of trip National Botanic Garden, helicopter ride, Gaylord restaurant, and Lydgate beach—great for seniors—all close by. Would stay here again.

Wonderful Location
While the location and view are hard to beat, the appearance and upkeep are definitely lacking. Because of where this is located, renting will probably never be a problem. However, some updating, renovation and care by owners would go a long way. The property is very dated,

Stay at Pali Nui Suites - Cunniff family
We stayed here 20 years ago and loved it! We still do. There are some boards on the deck that need to be nailed back down. Better outdoor lighting on the lanai would help with access. A notepad and pen would also be useful. Eventually the carpet could be replaced. Whenever we had questions or a problem you fixed promptly! Mahalo.

Pali Nui Suite Review
Unit was not as advertised. Was dirty and in very poor repair. Peeling paint, rusted appliances, filthy carpet, worn furniture and bedding. Property manager was wonderful and moved us to another property in the same area where we were able to enjoy our stay. This property should not be offered before it has extensive updates and cleaning.

Great location, needs updates
Like everyone else has said, the location is great. Disappointed when we booked that we didn’t have access to Marriott pool and amenities. Kitchen and appliances are very dated. Bugs on the ceiling in bathroom. If you can get over those issues, then it’s a good stay. Location, deck, and view helped us overcome issues inside the unit.

Retro Vibes - AMAZING View
Agree with other reviewers that this property is in need of an update, but we embraced it and LOVED the view & location. House gives off retro vibes. Recommend a deeper cleaning for now - lots of ledges and shelves that were in need of wiping down. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and the sunsets were beautiful.

A Great Place for the family
This place is a great location. The initial impression was that it looks a bit bigger and more modern in the photos than in person. The deck is wonderful, the place is quiet and comfortable with all the amenities you need. Can't beat the location. A bit of updating is needed but didn't affect the quality of our stay.

Good Central Location to Explore Kauai
My wife and I stayed here for 4 nights. While there is not much to do in Lihue, it was easy for us to explore the entire island as it was an easy drive to both Waimea and Hanalei. The condo was in good condition, if a little dated, with great views for sunset. Check in was a little tough at night, as it was not clear from the booking that this was on the lower level, but, overall, we would recommend this rental for anyone that has never been to Kauai and wants a central location that is convenient for exploring the entire island.

Central Location Overlooking Quiet Bay
We'll stay here again if we ever get back to Kaua'i! Perfectly situated between Waimea Canyon and the North Shore, this location allows you to see the whole island easily. The house sits on a ridge, overlooking the bay where you can watch surfers, hover-boarders, and the sunset from the front deck. The AC in the house was a blessing, though the place needs a few more lights in the living room, and the carpets could be replaced. That being said, we weren't in Hawai'i to sit in a living room! The beach at the end of the bay is easily accessible after a short walk and elevator ride, put in place for the Marriot Resort that fronts much of the bay. An excellent added convenience that made the stay feel luxurious! We had a great week!

Great Location! This is an older property located right on the beautiful cove. Close to Dukes Restaurant that we loved. It was probably 90 degrees inside when we checked in to the unit which was very disappointing. After cleaning the filters and leaving until the unit cooled down, the AC worked fine. The unit is small and quaint but worked well for our needs.

Fabulous View
We loved the location as it was central to the North and South part of the island and the view was fantastic. The condo was fine but they rearranged the living area so it did not look like the pictures. I would have preferred the arrangements that the pictures displayed. (not that big of a deal) There was a mistake made with the listing as they had advertised unlimited access to the Marriott beach and tennis courts but apparently that ended in 2020. After being kicked out of the pool, I called the management office and initially all I was offered was an apology. I had to email my proof of the false listing and text messages I had sent them 2 weeks prior to my arrival inquiring about the pool amenities to which they never responded before they offered me a small credit. They were very friendly when I spoke to them.

Beautiful VIews
Stay was nice. But had some instances of dead...and alive cockroaches. I was able to contact the property manager and they took care of it. Only salt and pepper to cook with, but grocery stores are close by. Also, it states "Special access and unlimited use of the adjacent Marriott's Beach Club, Health Club, Pool, Fitness & Tennis Facility" but that was false, it was a huge reason on why we booked that location since it didn't have a pool we could use that one. They said they took it off of all websites, but as I checked as of today 08/08/2022, it's still there. Overall, it was nice but definitely misleading.

Unbeatable View
This is a great location overlooking the bay/harbor with nice shops, restaurants, and rental facilities close by. It's also close to the airport and about midway between Waimea Canyon to the West and the beautiful beaches on the north part of the island. The staff in charge of coordinating the rental are exceptionally friendly and provided great communication. The unit itself is a little worn and outdated, but the view from the balcony makes it a great value.
