We will be checking out of the hotel today as we plan to stay in Grand Hyatt in the South for the next few days. The reason being that there are more activities in the South and the weather is better there as well.
We wanted to make good use of the amenities in the hotel before checking out, so we spend the entire morning in the pool and beach snorkeling.
As you can see from the pictures below, it was another cloudy day. I read previously that North shore in Kauai is one of the wettest spot in U.S. and it's true. The 2 days that we were there, it was always raining and cloudy. Thus, I am actually glad that we only stayed here for 1 night.
We first stopped in the town of Hanalei and have some lunch.
Then we went to Hanalei beach.
Next, we went to Tunnels beach (7640 Kuhio Hwy, Kauai, HI 96714) where there are people snorkeling.
Across the Tunnels beach, it was the wet and dry cave (Maniniholo, Waikanaloa & Waikapalae).
It started pouring again, so we didn't stayed long and left to go to Anni beach. I think Anni beach is the most beautiful beach that I have visited in Kauai so far. It reminds me of Kailua beach in Oahu.
After that, we went to Kilauea Lighthouse (3500 Kilauea Rd, Kilauea, HI 96754)
By then, everyone was tired, so we decided to check in to our hotel, Grand Hyatt Kauai (1571 Poipu Road, Koloa, Hawaii 96756). The check in time is 4pm and check out time is 11am. We will be staying here for the next 3 nights.
We were all welcomed with fresh orchid leis and the kids were given a goody bag each with sunglasses and a pineapple drink container.
The resort is huge and very beautiful.
There are multiple pools with a big slide and small slide. In addition, there was also a lazy pool which the kids enjoyed with their floating device.
Soon, it was dark and we decided to venture outside of the hotel for dinner. It was a bad choice as the restaurant that we wanted to go was about 20 minutes away. There was no street lights for most of the journey and it was hard to drive in the dark on the roads that we are unfamiliar with.
I have a separate post on the restaurant.
