Looks like super high prices and disappointing food from what I can see. Would love to hear about more off-site options.

The food options while spendy are of a decent quality in resort - key point to note is all prices exclude 10% service charge and 12% local tax.
In terms of other options unless you have a rental car there are only two: 1) Spicemill which is a 5 minute walk from the hotel and offers dishes at $30+ plus local 12% tax 2) Reggae Bach Bar and Grill which is a 10 minute walk and only open for dinner on Friday's when it hosts lobster night for $40 per person. Both are open for lunch as well when prices are lower at $10-20 per dish with $4 beers. You can get cheaper beers for $2 from a few of the other shacks on the neighbouring beach but they are only open during the day

I'm hoping the $17 bowl of oatmeal for breakfast comes with someone rubbing my shoulders and feet.
Maybe my memory is bad, but food prices at Grand Hyatt Kauai seemed a bit lower than these in St. Kitts.

Just returned. My initial feeling was that it had been overhyped given the anticipation on these boards over the last several $years. I used points and it was a standard, got exactly what I paid for. 1st floor view of the sea. You definitely do a lot of walking there and I did not like the fact I had to walk down stairs in an enclosed dark stairwell to get to the room. Room just like those at JW Marriott in Hanoi where everything but the w/c is totally open to the room. Nothing there is cheap, burgers which I only enjoy on vacation were $28 and the buffet breakfast the most I've ever paid anywhere in the world, $50 plus tip. That said, the food and beverage operation was outstanding and I don't mind spending that kind of money if they deliver for it. The gym is a little strange, has a dining room table in the middle! Like what is that for ? Just glasses of cold water vs bottles which are much easier to work with on cardio machines. No wipes to clean cardio when finished. No earbuds or headsets for the cardio as well. That said, the setting is spectacular in terms of the view across to the sister island of Nevis Makes you feel like you are on Maui looking across over to Molokai. I definitely plan on returning.

Food
We are getting excited for our trip in January although I wish we were Globaists for the free breakfast. $200+/day for 4 people just for breakfast is insane.
We plan to have our taxi stop at the IGA on the way to grab water bottles, soda, juice, milk, croissants, muffins, etc. and eat in room.
We have reservations Friday Night for Lobster Night at Reggae Beach Bar. It is $36/adult for lobster and $11/kid for chicken and the buffet (tax included), which seems reasonable.
Saturday we are doing Spice Mill’s Burger Night (still trying to get a price).
Sunday we are thinking of Salt Plage for Margs, Mojotos and tacos.
We may grab some light bites for lunch at the PH or Reggae bar.
Any tips for eating around the area or saving money are greatly appreciated!! I know this is probably the wrong place to go if you are frugal. Thanks!
