There are dozens of kid-friendly activities at the resort, including swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, water volleyball, tennis, cliff walks and mountain biking. The resort has two enormous swimming pools, with winding rivers and waterfalls, and a 150-foot waterslide. A cool addition are the man-made saltwater swimming lagoons, where you can relax on floating chairs, or kayak across five acres. There is a public beach, Shipwreck Beach, just steps from the resort, but it is not for swimming as the current is too strong especially for children. You'll often see locals there on boards catching waves; but for casual swimming and snorkeling try Poipu Beach which is only about five minutes from the resort.
Grand Hyatt Kauai has an 18-hole championship golf course, and a variety of packages include golfing, with special youth golf programs available.
Camp Hyatt Kauai is the hotel's kids' program, for potty-trained (no pull-ups allowed) children ages 3 to 12. It runs from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. every day and reservations are requested by 6 p.m. the night before. Kids will participate in activities like Koi fish feeding, face painting, bracelet and lei making, hula lessons, and cultural lessons about Hawaiians and the local wildlife. They can also participate in Parrot Talk, an interactive session about the local parrots, where they get to hold and touch the birds. Babysitting is also available for a fee.
Kids will also love Hyatt's Cranium Game Library which is filled with fun family games, and they'll get a complimentary Cranium game trial pack at check-in.
