“We are Marriott Owners and stayed on property to enjoy the Royal Sonesta amenities. Kukui's bar opened up after their beautiful remodel.while we were there. I shared my thoughts with Anthony, who was the manager on site. Christmas Day was crazy busy and the staff kicked butt and did a fantastic job. Boy, were they hustling and still kept their composure and professionalism! The menu has been refreshed and had many great healthy options. The prices are standard for this type of higher end property. The breakfast menu offered many options and all that we tasted were beautifully plated and very delicious! Yes, there were hiccups, which is expected, but the staff did the best they could. I'm not going to mention what needed to be improved on yet. As good as everything was, we know it will keep on improving as everyone settles in. Congratulations to Royal Sonesta and your entire team. Review in 12/26/24 Lucy & John Proud Marriott Owners“

“We absolutely loved our lunch at Hamura Saimin!
Our family of five ordered the small regular saimin, beef skewers, shrimp tempura, and crispy wontons, and it ended up being the perfect amount for lunch while still leaving room to snack later while sightseeing around Kauai. Everything was fabulous comforting, flavorful, and exactly the kind of authentic local food experience we were hoping for.
We also grabbed some homemade banana bread made by Lori to share in the car afterward, and it was SO good. Moist, flavorful, and perfect for a scenic drive snack.

The atmosphere is casual and local, which made the experience feel even more authentic. Definitely a must-visit spot in Kauai!“
