When is the best time to go to Kawaihau?

The best time to go to Kawaihau is during the shoulder seasons of April to June and September to November, when the weather is pleasant and the island is less crowded. These periods offer a good balance of sunshine and comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 24°C to 29°C. You'll find it easier to book popular activities and dining reservations without the peak season rush, which is ideal for travellers who appreciate a more relaxed pace and better value. The summer months of July and August are also popular, especially for families, due to school holidays. However, this is also when the island sees its highest number of visitors, leading to higher prices and more crowded attractions. While the weather is consistently warm and sunny, you might encounter more competition for activities and accommodation.

You can cancel your hotel reservation on Expedia, though it depends on the cancellation policy of your booking. Most bookings are refundable if canceled within 24-48 hours of the scheduled arrival.

If free cancellation is available, you can cancel directly through your Expedia account by logging in, going to "My Trips", and selecting your reservation.

Top Kawaihau Hotel Reviews

Kaua'i Palms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our stay! Parking was free which is nice."

Kauai Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The center with the courtyard and pool created a vibe of inclusion, playfulness, and community. The staff was absolutely some of the most warm loving people I have ever met. The gifting of a flower for your hair at breakfast was a huge heart felt touch. And who gets to experience a lovely breakfast with peacocks to fill your visual space! My time on Kauai was short and sweet and staying at the Kauai Inn was definitely so very special."

Aston Islander on the Beach

8/10 Good

"Great Location. Easy parking. Nice landscaping, walking paths, and building layout. Friendly staff. A/C in unit was ok. Online booking for choice of category and bedding was a bit unclear. Requested 2 dbls as offered but was given one Queen and a sofa bed. Our stay was only one night so did not complain. Good shopping and restaurants nearby the property, which is very convenient! Overall a pleasant experience and will definitely stay here again. Mahalo~"

Makai Club Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Property itself was nice and location was relatively close to Hanalei. As long as you don’t plan on golfing, I feel like the property is a good value. The golf course is super pricey so that was kind of a bummer. I’ve played pro course for far less but I guess when you’re in paradise, be prepared to pay paradise prices."
