We booked the Canal Cottage for a week in June. We thought the location would be good for travels to the North Shore and south to Poipu or over to Waimea Canyon. Not only was it good - it was perfect!!! We would return to our cottage after a day of sightseeing and snorkeling, and sit on our lanai with... more

I had a wonderful stay at Fern Grotto Inn. We had an 11 person wedding party and booked the Ohana House, Garden Cottage and Canal Cottage. Me and my girlfriend stayed in the Garden Cottage, some other recent newlyweds stayed at the Canal Cottage and the rest of the group stayed at Ohana House. All the houses were in really... more

We thoroughly enjoyed spending our 25th anniversary at the Fern Grotto Inn. We stayed in the Garden Cottage and it was perfect for us. The cottage itself was cute and spotlessly clean. The queen size bed was very comfortable. The cottage was filled with a large variety of special touches that made our stay more comfortable. For example, there was... more

Relatively isolated, grounds are very well maintained and nice, house was beautiful, quaint and immaculate. A really great place to stay for a casual vacation at the beach. more

This was the perfect place to stay. Nice, secluded, and quiet. Right next to the beach, but not mobbed with other tourists. It was a very clean, very nice place to spend a week. It was great to have a kitchen too. Amazing flowers and trees surrounding the entire location. I can't wait to stay there again! more

We reserved the Garden Cottage, the smallest of the four available and got a great price due to a late season, last-minute discount. For the price of a cheaper hotel room, we got a standalone cottage in a lovely, peaceful garden adjacent to... more

The Fern Grotto Inn was exactly what we expected and even more. The rooms were big, the kitchen was very clean, the family room was just the right size for our little family of 4. All we had to do was buy groceries cook, and throw the dishes into the dish washer. Each room in our house had its own... more

We felt at home at the Fern Grotto Inn as soon as we stepped inside our nicely-decorated cottage (the River Cottage). The living area and bed were very comfortable, and the kitchen had everything for cooking, which was great because we were trying to save a little on eating out in Kaua'i. The grounds of the Fern Grotto Inn are... more

I have been going to Hawaii for over 45 years and finally I found what old Hawaii was like before high rise glitzy overpriced mega resorts. Paul Juma has taken these former cottages owned by a Japanese family and brought them up to date with lovely furnishings and modern kitchens and baths. The grounds are lovely and adjacent to the... more
