Good location, value, but needs upgraded
On the positive side, the location is great as far as proximity to the beach, a great walking path, and walkable food options are concerned. On the negative, rooms are definitely in need of upgrades, very dated and run down. Sink leaked, toilet didn’t flush without plunging on occasion, bathroom mirror needed replacement. Traffic in front of hotel and in this area can be really congested either direction depending on the time of day. Mattress was not comfortable. Overall it was good value for the money, but a little upgrade would really make this a repeat location.

Great view, convenient location.
We booked a single night at this hotel to use the amenities and have a room to shower and change in before our red eye flight home. It fulfilled the role perfectly for us! The staff was super friendly, the room clean and the ocean view spectacular! We sat by the pool to soak up some sun...chairs were a bit worn out, but served their purpose. Location was great...there is road noise on the property, but there were several shops and restaurants within walking distance. Less than 20 minutes from the airport so easy to head out when we were done. The room/hotel in general was a bit dated, but as I said, it was what we needed for the day. Lots of DVDs, games, amenities, etc. Surf was too rough to swim in when we were there in the end of December. There is an elevator to reach the upper floors.

I had an amazing stay at Hotel Coral Reef! The property offers a fantastic ambiance and truly exceeds expectations in terms of service. Cleanliness: Good The hotel was generally clean, but there is some room for improvement in attention to detail, particularly in high-traffic areas. Nonetheless, the accommodations were comfortable and well-maintained. Staff & Service: Excellent The staff went above and beyond to ensure my stay was perfect. They were friendly, accommodating, and responsive to any requests I had. I would highly recommend Hotel Coral Reef for its outstanding service and welcoming atmosphere. Looking forward to my next visit!

The front desk people are nice and kind. All the facilities provided was awesome. It might not be appealing looking from outside but the rooms are pretty good. It's a beach front property. Too good. Nice and affordable. Much much better than paying hefty amount to some resorts in Kauai. Would definitely stay here again.

Bad experience
We stayed one night on Christmas Day at hotel Coral Reef. Check in was easy and quick. The front desk staff was very friendly and allowed us early check in. The condition of the room did not meet our expectation as we paid almost $300 and noted AC has no cover lid at the bottom. You could see the dirt and dust inside. The sprinkler copper pipe not just the head is visible on the wall. Right before taking a shower, my wife spotted a cockroach on the floor. I managed to kill it. Unfortunately it was too late( after 10 pm) to request change a room or cancel the stay. My kids were feeling too scared to go to bed. We bagged everything in plastic bag and stay up as late as possible. When I spoke to the manager at checkout she seems to be not surprised at all. “ it is raining season and they come out often. We did spray lately…”. She did offer apology but I am not sure how genuine she is. Definitely not coming back.

The hotel is a small oceanfront property. We had a second floor oceanfront view room. The property is older, but well maintained. The hotel is family operated, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Our unit had a king bed with a premium mattress. The Ke Ala Hele Makalae Path is right outside the property. The hotel has cruiser bikes available for free to guests. Parking is free, and there are no additional fees. The property is quiet, with a great oceanfront location. Restaurants are within easy walking distance. This was a great value compared to other Kapaa oceanfront properties.
