Motel Lani

I have stayed at Motel Lani twice now. Many years back and again now. I luv this little place. It is well cared for and family owned. They are super sweet and helpful. Great price and extremely clean and tidy. It's not updated or fancy but has everything I need. Clean, tidy, and Great customer service! I will definitely stay again!

Ok I don't write many reviews, but for Motel Lani I will make an exception because they saved my trip to Kauai! Let me explain: I just came back from Kauai where I stayed for a week with my wife between Christmas and New Year 2015. I was hoping to find a centrally located and affordable place to stay since we were planning to explore the island during the day, so all we needed was a place with a bed and a shower. Unfortunately it was a last-minute decision to go so we started looking for places the week before Christmas and of course all affordable places on the whole island were already fully booked up: That week the cheapest hotel rooms where $200+ a night, while the cheapest places on AirBnB were $150+ a night. The only affordable place I could find was the Tip Top Motel in Lihue for $1

The rooms were clean, and can't beat the price. We stayed 3 nights here and one night at the Marriott hotel. The owner did housekeeping each night, providing fresh towels and bedding. it had everything needed.

The stay I had at motel Lani was phenomenal. The room was clean and cozy, and the price was great. I would definitely come back, customer service was also awesome!

Motel Lani was incredible. Best value in Kauai. Just a block from a great brewery and a fun Second Saturday event that we stumbled into. Call and book early as this place has regulars. We were able to pay with credit card in Jan 2025.
