– One of this week’s Travelzoo top 20 deals includes a special for a lovely beach hotel, Royal Sonesta Kauai Resort. We’ve stayed at this resort location back when it was managed by Marriott. (This is our review from years ago.) It’s a beautiful resort in a great location. With the Travelzoo deal, stays of five nights or longer start at $339 per night. Resort and parking fees are waived. Learn more about this deal here.
