Kauai Coast Resort is a quaint beachfront hotel on Kauai's popular Royal Coconut Coast (East Shore). Its central location is very convenient for both South Shore and North Shore sightseeing.
Kauai Coast at the Beachboy is set on 5 acres of lush oceanfront property. The grounds are immaculate and covered with beautiful and very fragrant flowers and shrubs.
The Coconut Plantration Marketplace is a short stroll across the parking lot. It is an open-air shopping center that sells everything you could possible need to enjoy your vacation. It is also a perfect stop for an ice cream, dinner, or even a movie.
Kauai Coast Resort is very close to Lydgate Park, a popular swimming and snorkeling park with a huge playground that children will love.
Lihue Airport is only 12 miles (15 minuites) away.

3. Restaurants
Kauai Coast Resort has three on-site eateries:
1) Hukilau Lanai Restaurant - serves delicious family dinners
2) Pool bar - light menu and beverages
3) Lobby lounge - great place for evening gatherings
There are quite a few restaurants and cafes located within 1-2 miles from the Kauai Coast at the Beachboy. Here are our 3 favorite places:
1) Flying Lobster/Voyage Restaurant - located next door at the Courtyard by Marriott Kauai
Start off your day with a hearty full-American buffet breakfast, then relish an affordably priced lobster dinner or other American and Hawaiian regional specialties in a tropical setting. Come over on Saturday night for the popular Prime Rib and Seafood Buffet.
If you are traveling with children, keep in mind that each child 11 years and younger eats free with each paying adult.
2) Royal Coconut Grove Lounge - located next door at the Courtyard by Marriott Kauai
Relax by the pool and feel the tropical breezes on your face. The lounge serves lunch and appetizers, and many tropical cocktails. Each evening, the popular Happy Hour has a different island drink on special. A couple of nights a week they have a local band playing traditional Hawaiian songs in the courtyard.
3) Kauai Coconut Beach Luau - located next door at the Courtyard by Marriott Kauai
This nightly show starts at dusk with a torch lighting ceremony, and then follows with about an hour of hula dancing and singing. Balmy breezes and silhouettes of swaying palm trees set a great stage for this colorful celebration of Aloha.
There is also an all-you-can eat buffet with traditional Hawaiian delicacies, and an open bar.
You can book the luau directly through the hotel once you arrive.
4. Things to do
- Beach
Wake up in the morning and walk 50 yards to the beach to watch the beautiful sunrise (bring your camera too). The beach isn't good for swimming beacuase of strong currents, but it's wonderful to just sit and listen to the surf. You may even see the local monk seals sunning on the sand.You will especially love relaxing in one of the hammocks shaded by palm trees, with the gentle breeze wafting over you and the wispy-white clouds passing by.
- Day Spa
The Royal Coconut Coast Spa is the latest addition to the Kauai Coast at the Beachboy. It has a surprisingly wide variety of treatments, including Chinese Herbal Wrap, Scrub and Aloe Wrap, Raindrop Therapy, Zen Shiatsu, Lomi Lomi Massage, Hawaiian Salt Glow, manicures and pedicures. - Two Pools
The main pool fronts the ocean and is surrounded by swaying coconut palms. It is pretty large and heated, and looks like a lagoon with interesting natural rock waterscapes. It has a sun deck with lounge chairs and poolside bar so you can indulge in a cool, refreshing drink under the warm Hawaiian sun.There is also a separate children's pool and a relaxing oceanside Jacuzzi.
