First, no, I don't think it would be annoying as there are nice beaches within a couple of minutes stroll. October is "traditionally" the best weather, and dry, island-wide. Aloha, Rob Hi Lindsay.

I found Koa Kea and thought it looked great, but we are big beach people... Do you think since Koa Kea does not have its own beach, that this might be "annoying" for us lazy beach bums? :) Also, we are very interested in the St. Regis in Princeville; however, I heard that this can be the rainier side of the island. How true is that statement for the month of October? And by rainy, do they mean a quick shower in the afternoon... Because that's very different than rain all day, every day. Thanks in advance for your help! :) I am attempting to plan our honeymoon for Oct. 11-Oct.21 in Kauai.

Poipu is normally dry this time of year. Enjoy Kauai and our best Aloha to you, Rob Beat of Hawaii Hi Christina,

My husband and I are planning our first trip to Kauai -- it's last minute and we plan on going next week. Could you please tell us what the weather is like in Poipu this time of year? We're concerned about weather reports saying scattered showers everyday. Also, after reading your review, we're interested in staying at the Koa Kea Hotel. You mentioned there's no beach -- how far of a walk is it to a sandy beach from the hotel? Thank you so much -- any advice would be greatly appreciated! Best, christina Hi There -

After friends dined there recently, I decided to give them a little time to iron out the kinks first. I'll post a review when we eat there. Aloha, Rob Hi Christine,

Who doesn't like Poipu?! You seemed to have a great stay and enjoyed yourself at the hotel. When living in Hawaii, beach access for swimming is not top priority. Probably, the hotel was nice enough to waive the room fee for such a nice review... Aloha, Pua Best Hawaii Vacation blog Hello Rob,
