Resort Experience:
Part of the Kauai Marriott Resort hotel was converted to timeshare units, known as the Kauai Beach Club. It is a mixed facility with 344 regular hotel rooms and 232 timeshare units (190 one-bedroom units and 42 two-bedroom units).
The resort is located on the very picturesque Kalapaki Bay, on the southeast corner of Kauai, only one mile from Lihue airport. It is an excellent central location, because the main road on Kauai does not entirely circle the island. But the resort is roughly at the halfway point, so it's easy to explore in either direction.
You check into the timeshare resort like a regular hotel guest and can use all the services, such as valet parking, bell captains, room service, etc. One difference is that you get maid service just once, midway through your week.
There are five major buildings in the hotel, and the timeshare units are spread out across four of those towers. The one-bedroom units (which were made by combining two hotel rooms) are 714 to 865 square feet, and the two-bedroom units (which were made by combining three hotel rooms) are 944 square feet. The one-bedroom units have a 32" TV in the living room, along with VCR and queen-size fold-out sofa. The master bedroom has a king-size bed and 20" TV. The kitchenette contains a small fridge, dishwasher, microwave, blender, and coffee maker. There is no stovetop or oven.
The resort grounds are beautifully landscaped. The pool area is especially nice (it's the largest pool on the entire island). There are many nice Jacuzzis around the perimeter of the pool.
The resort (and all of Kauai, for that matter) is so beautiful that words cannot do it justice. To see some photos of the resort and the island, visit the Kauai Vacation Photos section of our VacationLovers personal website.
