hyatt is great and much sunnier than princeville. We stayed in princeville and loved it and will stay there again next time, but it has more rain than Poipu side of the island.
this is up on top of the in the little town up there. It's good food. there's another place in that little town too which is really good. I'm going to figure out the name of that one too!
you'll dig this place. there is also a spot right next door that is worth trying too, but the name is escaping me. I'll find it.... found it and added it. It's Daniel Thiebaut.
This is definitely something I want to check out since I've only once been on an inner tube once when I was 12 and in my back yard! These adventures go through open canals and sugar plantations & let's face it, you're in Kauai & can't go wrong. Type A people can add the zipline.
Rent an SUP (stand up paddle board) for the week at Boss Frog's and pay $150. OR, you can rent it for 3 hours at the Mauna Kea, and pay $150. Oh, and Mauna Kea won't rent it to you until 8AM, and not if the beach break is over 2 feet (too dangerous, apparently).
