Expect to pay $1,400/night for an ocean front room in December
We made our reservation in Expedia thinking we were paying about $800/night all taxes and fees included. It turned out to be $1,340/night with all the fees included. We had an ocean view room with balcony on the second floor. It was a great view and snorkeling was right there. The staff was very friendly and responsive. The room was small, but very clean. WIFI WAS NOT SECURE.

Great little gem
Been here three times in the last six years so that should say something. Hotel is quiet, mainly adults, real serene, close to the water and within walking distance of a few restaurants if not eating on premises. Happy to answer any questions.

Awesome time in Kauai
Ko’a Kea is such an amazing spot. The amenities are wonderful, the food is amazing but the real magic is the people who work there. Every single person makes you feel like part of the family. We were traveling with our 3 month old and everyone was patient, kind and caring. If you want to have a magical time in Kauai, go to Ko’a Kea and soak up the sun and the love. Extra shout outs are in order for Jovie and the entire bellhop team. Jovie was so attentive and sweet. The bellhop team was always ready to help and always did it with a big smile and great advice. We will be back for sure

Diamond in the rough.
The resort is a diamond in the rough! The ambience, decor and rooms are prestige! The staff pays ATTENTION TO DETAIL. The resort did not have any children, but a couple of babies while we were here And that was not planned but very nice. The sushi in the restaurant was amazing. We had a few breakfast here and that was great. The avocado toast was amazing. My husband had a breakfast tacos, which were also amazing. The beach frontier is a little rocky, but off to the left or the right is great Beach and for snorkeling four body boarding for surfing. I definitely recommend this resort. The Palapa bar is also very good.

Excellent stay at Ko’a Kea
The employees are welcoming, helpful and go out of their way at every opportunity. The rooms are updated and very nice, housekeeping comes in and refreshes the room every day. Grounds are well maintained. So many nice touches, too many to list. Most rooms have a nice ocean view with a lanai. Beds are comfortable, large showers and the rooms have plenty of space.
