The beauty and romance of Kauai make it the perfect place, not only for a honeymoon, but for a destination wedding. Once the playground of Hawaiian Chiefs, the picturesque blue waters of the Pacific and the golden shoreline along with warm sunny days and mild evenings still make the Sheraton Kauai Resort the perfect place to play, relax, and get married.
Ideally located on the south shore on Poipu Beach, the Sheraton Kauai Resort is one of Hawaii’s top resorts on the beach. If you are looking for a place where you can hear the sound of the waves crashing against the rocks, consider staying in the Ocean Wing. Renowned for its unspoiled white sand, swaying coco palms, brilliant sunshine, and breathtaking sunsets, this is the perfect place for those seeking relaxation and tranquility. In 1992, the resort underwent a 45 million dollar construction and renovation after the hurricane. With its 20 acres of lush oceanfront gardens, 394 rooms, including suites, facing the ocean or vibrant tropical gardens, pools, and sparkling waterfalls, the property offers a charming backdrop for both wedding ceremonies and receptions. The hotel offers a professional wedding coordinator who can help the bride and groom plan a wedding for two or a gala affair in the tropical gardens or on oceanfront property with beautiful views of the Pacific. The Sheraton Kauai offers a number of reception options in one of four elegant restaurants to a romantic private dinner for two.
Once the nuptials are done, couples can enjoy an array of on-site activities. They can sunbathe on the un-crowded crescent beach or snorkel in the clear waters offshore. There is ample room on the property for peaceful strolls either alongside the beach or ocean or through lovely gardens. Guests can enjoy Hawaiian nightly entertainment at the Point or indulge in cultural activities including hula lessons, and arts and crafts. The Friday night Hawaiian luau located on the lawn right beside the ocean is a must!
In addition, the newlyweds can explore major scenic points on the Garden Isle. Places to be sure to visit are the spectacular and colourful Waimea Canyon and the breath-taking Na Pali Coast with its 14 miles of vertical seamounts. Other Kauai attractions include helicopter tours, kayaking Hanalei River, Hanapepe Salt ponds, Kilauea Lighthouse, Wailua River Cruise to Fern Grotto, Zipline Adventure, and National Tropical Botanical Gardens. The resort is an easy one-hour drive to Kauai’s north shore attractions including the pretty little town of Hanalei and the beautiful resort area of Princeville.
The Sheraton Kauai is the perfect place for those seeking tranquility, and experience filled with an abundance of romance, and a lifetime of memories.
