Many say Kauai is an underrated Hawaii island often overshadowed by the very famous Maui. Here, you’ll find amazing marine life, breathtaking botanical gardens, unique hiking trails, beautiful family resorts, and much more. The north shore is an ideal place if you’re a nature lover, as it houses Nā Pali Coast State Wilderness Park. The best places to stay here are Hanalei or Princeville. Shopaholics can choose Lihue on the east shore. The south shore is the sunniest part of the island and houses the famous Poʻipū Beach Park. On the west, you have Waimea Canyon State Park, which makes Waimea an ideal destination for outdoorsy tourists.

On every beach vacation, we all want to stay at a place next to the shore that offers spectacular water views. Check out the best Airbnbs in Kauai, Hawaii, for stays.

Enjoy your stay in paradise.
