Kama’aina Staycations
It’s always a great time to recharge, reconnect and renew with a kamaaina vacation (or staycation) on Kauai. Resort properties, activities and stores on the Royal Coconut Coast, have some great deals for local Hawaii residents. Plan a few days of down-time on Kauai’s east side beaches, hiking trails, the Wailua River, biking paths, great adventures, eating out (or in) and exploring charming shops. Off-island kamaaina will need show proof of a negative COVID test taken within 72 hours of arrival, show their Hawaii driver’s licenses and will be subject to temperature screening and filling in state-required forms at the airport. All businesses on Kauai are operating within COVID-19 guidelines requiring social distancing. Masks are required indoors and outdoors when close to or approaching other people. Check out these great offers (subject to change).
