Aloha! In a few short weeks, we're checking in for 8 nights at the Kaua'i Beach Club. I booked as a hotel guest (was looking to book a Air+Hotel package at Kauai Marriott, and saw that I could upgrade to a one bedroom OF villa at KBC for $100/nt, so ... yes of course!)
We're Vistana owners also - WKORV, Sheraton Flex and SVV. Looking forward to the merger with MVC and whatever that brings. We've really enjoyed Marriott hotels since the buy/merge with Starwood. We stayed at the Westin Princeville two years ago, and of course, fell in love with Kauai. So we're coming back as part of our grand ten year anniversary gala. We grabbed lunch at Duke's after a scuba trip and toured the resort while walking off the Hula pie, and decided that it was tops on our list for a return visit.
So, what are the favorite activities there among you all? We will definitely repeat a Napali sunset cruise with Captain Andy. And the north coast beach tour, via Shaka Guide, with a stop at the Dolphin Fish Market and Sushi Bar. We enjoy exploring the sights and wonders of Hawaii - and good food. Is there a place to rent beach and snorkel gear? How is the snorkeling at this beach?
Are there laundry facilities in the villas? Or at least on site? Our stay will be nights 9 through 17 of our 23 night, 3 island adventure, and we'll need to do some wash during that time. Are hotel bookings given daily housekeeping in the villas - are personal amenities refreshed daily? The kitchenettes don't appear to be true kitchenettes, correct? Just a microwave, mini-fridge and a sink - so no way to really cook a meal? What's a favorite, nearby grocery store where we can grab sandwich fixings and snacks?
What other questions should I be asking?
TIA!
