1. The beach, while not the best due to rocks and reefs, made up for it in the views and a 24h pool/jacuzzi.

"WOW. Stay here if you can. " Read full review on TripAdvisor 5/8/2012 Vote

2. It is not ideal for swimming because there are a lot of rocks and coral.

"There are better options in Hawaii " Read full review on TripAdvisor 5/1/2012 Vote

3. Now, the less happy parts:- the beach is not a one where you can truly swim as there are rocks all the way up to the beach- there are often outdoor events that are noisy enough to chase you away from the pool grounds- there is only one pool, which for the size of this hotel and the fact that several families come with a large number of kids in tow, is not enough.

"Cool location, quiet rooms, but sub-par service " Read full review on TripAdvisor 4/25/2012 Vote

4. The hot tub is centrally located and surrounded by rocks, including flat surfaces where you can rest your drinks.

"Luxury in the Rain " Read full review on TripAdvisor 3/10/2012 Vote

5. The sand is course and the water is studded with large black rocks.

6. If you look closely on the rock formations you can notice Puff the Magic Dragon Laying around.

"Not Cheap but worth every minute! " Read full review on TripAdvisor 8/24/2011 Vote

7. There is only one pool (no serenity pool) and the beach isn't really swimmable b/c of the rocks so everyone is at the pool all day unless you are out on excursions.

"Best place in Kauai, not as good as 4 Seasons in Maui " Read full review on TripAdvisor 8/17/2011 Vote

8. Wear water shoes or flippers while swimming unless you want to stay within a few sandy areas in the water - lots of rocks/reef.

"amazing trip! wonderful resort. " Read full review on TripAdvisor 8/15/2011 Vote

9. But the St Regis Princeville rocks.

"Unbelievable property - don't believe any negative reviews " Read full review on TripAdvisor 8/5/2011 Vote

10. Not rough, just very shallow full of large rocks.
