Outrigger Waipouli Beach Resort Kapaa, HI - Booking Reservations, Reviews, Information

The rooms in this resort were obviously new w/new high end appliances and very, very spacious in terms of room. From our building we overlooked the pool area and had a clear view to the beach and ocean - we could see the sunrise over the ocean from our beds each morning. With the constant tradewinds we never turned on the a/c but instead left our sliders open each night and were all very comfortable. The pool area was gorgeous and the pool and hot tubs very spacious - plenty of room for all without feeling overcrowded. The resort location seemed central between north and south so travel to different excursions and parts of the island were easy. Even though we were on the main highway, traffic noise wast not an issue - all we could hear was the sounds of the ocean and the birds. The pool area was always kept very clean and was well maintained each morning. The only criticism was the onsite restaurant had a very limited menu and was not very exciting in their offerings and the service was very poor and unprofessional. But given the full kitchens that had every amenity needed and the easy walk to two grocery stores, this would not be a deterrent in recommending this resort nor my returning to it.

We traveled here w/ 2 teen daughters & a 10 yr. old daughter. Each person in the family loved the resort's "look"...the room's were excellent, very high end feeling, spacious, & clean. We enjoyed the extra amenities such as the "I-Homes" in both bdrms, we loved the big bath tubs & felt very spoiled by the end of the week. The location was ideal for us . This hotel allows you easy access to the shopping center across the street for quick grocery trips or trinket shopping at the Longs Drugs or ABC store. Also, it was easy to drive either to Poipu or Hanalei from this location. We're from Southern Cal so a 20 minute drive in either dircetion is not a big deal! The swimming pool was always clean, the pool & bar/snack bar staff were always very energetic, friendly, & professional. Our room was closest to the pool area & each morning by 7:00am, the pool staff was already busy at work testing the water, cleaning up the lounge chairs,raking up the sand, etc. Very hard working department! The food options were fairly limited at the tiki bar so I wouldn't recommend that you could eat dinner here each night & get a different entree but what they did have was decent & about on par w/ the rest of the island for pricing. The drinks were all delicious ! The beach adjacent to the hotel is really quite nice & we enjoyed the added touch of thatched umbrellas & small concrete tables. Our only complaint was that they attempted to give us a room WITHOUT an ocean view at in after we had paid extra for that. No discounts or coupons were offered to compensate. I did get my ocean view after a quick search!

The Waipouli Beach Resort is a new very beautiful setting on the beach in Kapaa. Because they are selling units, those for rent are not in the most desirable of locations. The room we had was a 2 bed 3 bath unit. It was in a corner unit (bldg C) on the top floor. What was bad that is was next door to the trash collection room, which was used all night. Also it faced the main highway where vehicle noise was heard all night. Lack of insulation seemed evident. The outside temp at night was in low 70"s but the interior could not be keep cool, A/C ran all night. The placement of the A/C register (which can not be adjusted) in the Bedroom blew the air directly on the bed, making it uncomfortable. The Master Bed was lumpy (indintations) and the pillows were too small for the size of the bed. The hide-a-bed is not recommended for adults or older children. You can feel the springs on it. The beach is not for swimming due to currents and urchins. One guest ventured in and stepped on an urchin. The bright side is the pool is perfect for children, my daughter loved it and the bar and grill was a great place to eat and have a Mai Tai. Also you can pack light, the in unit W/D was great. Check in and out was fast and easy.

This was a great resort to stay at. Location was very good. Shopping and food within walking distance. It had a great pool for kids of all ages. Beachfront and beautiful! There is no dinning for breakfast, but does have a full kitchen with grocery store right across the street.

This hotel was very welcoming to us when we stayed. All the workers were welcoming to us and was always asking if there was anything we needed. The rooms were just amazing. We checked into the one bedroom, two bath. What was interesting with this room was that there was really two bedrooms. The property grounds were very clean and very open. The only drawback to this property is that roomservice does not make beds, and the tower we stayd in does not have an elevator. Aside from all thats good, within the first day, those two drawbacks didnt nag us one bit. We were nervous that the pool area would be flooded with kids...and there were quite a few, but the pool area is so big, there was plenty of room to maintain our "bubble" from everyone else. The bar on the property is pretty nice, but nothing special. The beach on the resort is very pretty if you want to walk along the water. It is not a swimmable beach but there is much better eye catchin beaches within a short distance that your gonna prefer to swim at anyways. Resort is in a great location with a shopping mall across the street and some restaurants across the street as well. Overall the resort is fantastic and well worth trying out. Its one of the more expensive resorts on the island, but the location and ammentities make up for it real quick.

Travelled with our 8 & 5 year old. Kids loved the pool, room was beautiful (nicer than our own home). Sturdy construction (kids didn't sound like a heard of elephants when walking arount the room on the top floor). Cement floors and walls (couldn't hear the neighbors). Room had laundry soap. The beach had warning signs posted due to strong currents, but Lydgate Beach is a few miles down the road and very kid friendly. 2 gas BBQ grills at the pool area and Safeway accross the street. Reception staff wasn't overly helpful. We wanted a room farther away from the street and they said they didn't have any available and would call if one opened up. The hotel wasn't very full the week we stayed and very few cars in the parking lot. We never did get moved. We took a red-eye flight home and had 2 options available: for 149 plus tax we could stay in our room until 6:00pm or in the morning go to the desk and sign up for a hospitality 1 hour in a unit that was unoccupied. Both options had to be done the morning of your departure. They were unable to tell us the night before our departure if our room was to be used the next day. We opted for the free hour in an available room
