    We had to ask for things several times before we got them. Polite staff but forgetful and very slow.

    During our 10 night stay at the Hyatt, we had dinner at Stevenson’s 3 times. This trip was our fourth 10-night stay here. We have tried all the other restaurants in the Poipu and Koloa market area and Stevenson’s is by far the best.

    What a gem! From the greeting to the inventive cocktails (pleasantly modified even further upon request) to the view, comfort, ambiance, & food - all were great. Attentive, professional service, from the receptionist, busboy, servers, and manager (who checked in!) - all were warm, professional, & efficient. The food was amazing - we tried several dishes & shared, and all were equally wonderful. We will be back!
