Hawaii Vacation Guide | How to Prep for Kauai Vacations

Choosing Kauai as your vacation destination is the first step in planning your Hawaii escape. However, there is plenty more work that goes into successful Kauai vacations. At Kauai Exclusive Management, we’re committed to being here for our guests before they’ve even stepped foot on the island. With decades of experience, we’ve seen just about everything and know what goes into successful vacations. To help you have the best getaway possible, we’ve put together a list of three top tips.

Tip 1: Research the Different Sides of the Island

Each side of Kauai is known for its unique activities and attractions. Also known as Garden Island, there is no bad side to this fourth largest Hawaii island. However, one side might fit your trip better than others, which is why researching each side is important.

• The North Shore, known for the famous Hanalei Bay, is home to rugged mountains, sea cliffs, sandy beaches, and taro fields.
• The South Shore is dotted with historically, geologically, and culturally significant sites as well as phenomenal beaches. In addition to being a popular area for snorkeling and shopping, it is also a hub for boat excursions.
• The East Shore is also referred to as the Royal Coconut Coast due to the groves of coconut palms. You can also find more historic places and beaches on this side.
• The West Shore is home to incredible natural wonders and charming towns. Two of the most popular attractions on this side of the island are Waimea Canyon and the Napali Coast, both of which offer spectacular views.

At Kauai Exclusive Management, we have rentals on three of the most popular sides: North, South, and East.

Tip 2: Make a List of Wants and Needs

Once you’ve chosen which side of the island you want to call home, it’s time to pick your dream Kauai vacation rental. Our inventory includes an incredible selection of penthouses, suites, homes, and condos. With so many options, it can be overwhelming, but don’t stress. Our team is here to help you wade through your options.

A great way to start narrowing down your choices is by creating a list of wants and needs. For example, how many bedrooms does your rental need? What sort of extra amenities do you want your rental to have? 

Tip 3: Create a Rough Itinerary

When prepping for your vacation, one last thing to do is create a rough itinerary of things you want to do or see during your escape. By making this general list, you can ensure no one’s top adventures are missed, and you can make reservations ahead of time. There are plenty of things to experience, like exploring the Napali Coast on a Blue Ocean Adventures tour or flying on a zipline with Skyline Hawai’i.
