 Kauai Guidebook July 29, 2010
Judy from Grand Junction
I ordered this book as "used". Really? It looks brand new! I have been visiting this island for 5 weeks, but I ordered the book a little late. By the time I received it, I knew my way around quite well. However, I still found a LOT of new information such as local hiking paths, local beaches, and other places I had not been to. Excellent book; excellent condition.
Mandatory for great vacation July 26, 2010

This guide book was spot on. Great directions, maps and reviews. It made our trip a lot easier since our family is picky eaters and we wanted to find the best snorkeling and boogie boarding beaches. Mid-trip I tossed our Frommers. I highly recommend you get the most current version of this book and don't bother with an older version and they update it frequently.
Kauai the REAL adventure July 15, 2010
M M Maseda (Calabasas, CA United States)
The best detailed guide for the island! It was our Bible! The only sad part, is some of the places have closed due to the poor economy. But, a few new places have sprung up and if they last will be in the next review... I am sure of it! Overall, use the book to get in the car and explore, but be sure to ask the locals if you need help...they are very helpful! This book is truly the ULTIMATE guide. Just back July 3, 2010.
Used it everyday while on vacation July 9, 2010

We used this guide for our honeymoon on Kauai. It was wonderful. It helped us with restaurants and places to go and do things. I am not sure how we would have fared without it.
Excellent Book! June 11, 2010

My Wife and I got this book for our recent trip to Kauai and it was an excellent resource to have. We left it in the rental car and brought it everywhere we went, it was especially helpful for finding good food wherever you were. They list the favorite restaurants with an "ONO" next to them, and we found all of them to be well reviewed and had excellent food. Our favorite restaurants on the trip were not visible from the road and we would have never known they were there if it were not for this book.
The snorkeling recommendations were good as well (Tunnels beach was fantastic one day we were there, and excellent the other). We didn't find anything in this book that led us in the wrong direction or to a hike/etc that wasn't as described. Congratulations to the authors on a fantastic book, I would recommend this to anybody visiting Kauai (best for the first timers but lots of great information for anybody).
