Kauai Fun Vacations

Where to stay in Kauai? South Shore or Coconut Shore?

Hi, I am leaving for Kauai on the 1st, so far I have ariline tickets, and no hotel. There are a lot of choices, and it got a bit confusing. I am torn between South shore and coconut shore. Also I am travelling alone, so I am looking for a decent hotel or resourt, which wouldn't be overly expensive. Ideally it would be something safe, with some things to do at the resort/hotel territory, so you can spend time there and maybe find some company - I am not looking for nightclubs or any of that type of nightlife. I love swimming and outdoors. what are the hotels that have swimmable beaches with not too much of tides/waves? I will appreciate any comments/suggestions. Thanks in advance.

1. We stayed at the Kauai beach resort which is now the Hilton It has everything from restaurants to pools, waterslides, everything and it has a free shuttle to and from the airport most of the sights are nearby also I highly recommend it
2. SOUTH SHORE! If you want to swim, south shore is your best bet. I love the south shore, lived there all my life :] Hmm, the Hyatt is out because it's beach is really wavey and rocky and scary plus its expensive. I think the Outrigger Kiahuna Plantation would be really nice :] they have an in room kitchen and a pool and they are on the beach! The Sheraton Kauai Resort is also nice but a lot of kids running around because it is right on a very popular beach OR The Marriott Waiohai is fairly new and has a really nice pool, I like that hotel :] Good Luck and come to Old Koloa Town and have a shave ice from Koloa Shave Ice because it is the best shave ice on the island :] and if you've never had shave ice before, you are missing out!
