Poipu (Kauai) Under Construction
In September we did a last minute two week trip to Hawaii. We stayed in the same area where we always stay, Poipu on the south end, but this time we stayed on the eastern part of Poipu, near the Hyatt. And it is a good thing that we did not stay in our usual location, in a cottage on Ho'ona Road, just off the road to Spouting Horn, because that part of Kauai is in the middle of a huge construction project!
I posted about this on the Slow Travel Forums, but wanted to repeat it here so anyone thinking about going to Poipu, Kauai in the next few years knows about the construction.
We had a lovely vacation, but the major construction projects have just started. They are digging now, but the building has not started. We won't be going back to Poipu for a few years - until these projects are done.
