Why Now's the Time to Book the Grand Hyatt Kauai

Is 2026 the year you finally visit Hawaii? It’s one of the twelve states left on my US bucket list, so I’m hoping to tick it off this fall. It leaped to the to-go list for two reasons.

Hubby and I had lunch with close friends who visited recently and eased my anxiety about booking inter-island flights. I was concerned that we’d spend too much of our vacation time in airports traveling between Oahu, Maui and Kauai, the three islands on our Hawaii must-see list. Our friends said it’s a no-sweat situation. The flights are short and scheduled frequently to accommodate tourists.

A Luxury Kauai Stay That Finally Fits the Budget

Once I felt comfortable with getting around, I started looking at stay options. And the second reason to visit this year is a compelling offer from the Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort & Spa. The 605-room destination resort is the ideal stay and play home base on Kauai and the Paradise Found 2026 promotion puts the luxury property solidly within vacation reach.

Minimum 4-night stays must be booked by March 31 for travel between March 1 and December 31, 2026. The package includes:

25 percent off the “Bed & Breakfast” special rate which includes breakfast each day of the visit
Reduced resort fee of $25
$250 resort credit for use at the resort’s restaurants, spa, cabanas and activities

Hubby and I will have to split that resort credit between the Anara Spa and the resort’s award-winning Poipu Bay Golf Course. It’s only fair.

Resort Days, Cultural Experiences and Bucket-List Adventures

We’d probably book at least one off-property excursion with the resort’s partner Blue Hawaiian Activities. Since we’re talking bucket lists, a Hawaii helicopter tour is on mine. Hubby? Not so much.

But lounging at the resort would be tops on our to-do list. Set on 50 oceanfront acres, the Grand Hyatt Kauai has an expansive pool complex with an adults-only tranquility pool, a lava rock-lined river pool, a 1.3-acre seaside lagoon, an activity pool with a 150-foot waterslide and multiple whirlpools. Lounging away the days in the resort’s brand-new luxury cabanas sounds dreamy.

And, conveniently located on-property, is the Ke Kumu O Hihinui cultural center so we can dip in for immersive only-in-Hawaii experiences, including:
