The location of the Kauai Marriott Resort and Beach Club is as good as it gets around Lihue, making it one of the city's top lodging choices. This family-friendly resort sits right on Kalapaki Beach, one of the top beaches in the immediate area, so you can enjoy as much time on the sand as you please. Like the other Lihue hotels, the Kauai Marriott Resort features rates that are relatively low compared with its counterparts in most of the other Kauai destinations, so while it's not exactly cheap, it's more affordable than some of the other upscale Kauai resorts. Your money will go a long way at the Kauai Marriott, and everything you need to enjoy a pleasant stay will be right at hand.

While Kalapaki Beach is just steps away from the Marriott Resort in Kauai, you might not make it that far when looking to take a swim, as the resort's immaculate swimming pool might impede your progress at least a little. This sprawling outdoor pool is designed like a seashell, and the different swimming areas fan out around the central island area, where hot tubs provide another spot to relax. There is plenty of seating around the pool, so you shouldn't have a problem finding a chair to pull up. In addition to a delightful pool, the Kauai Marriott Resort also offers various dining options, and a local restaurant dinner delivery service is available to guests as well.

You're bound to find something you like to eat at one of the Kauai Marriott's restaurants, and the daily breakfast buffet is ideal for fueling up before a busy day. The Kauai Marriott Resort restaurants include the Aupaka Terrace, which is a sushi bar, and the Café Portofino, which features Italian cuisine. American cuisine is offered at both Duke's and the Kalapaki Grill, while the poolside Kukui's features a more international menu. Romantic dinners on the beach can be arranged at the Kauai Marriott, and should your visit include a Monday night stay, the Luau Dinner Buffet is not to be missed. Other restaurants can be found close by, but because the Kauai Marriott's dining scene is so complete, you won't need to depend on them.
