点评:After visiting these gardens in October 2017 and loving it, traveling to the island now in June 2025 we expected even better with more abundance flowers in their summer season. We paid the $10 entrance fee and started walking the grounds. We were VERY disappointed in both the lack of flowers around and the lack of cleanliness. So much was overgrown and not attended to, a lot of dead leaves all over, one of the authentic thatch buildings was simply a garbage/storage area as when we looked in it was full of garbage cans, ladders, empty containers etc.. The overall vibe was drab. What once used to be beautiful gardens was lacking now. We saw more beaty in the natural areas around the island than in this garden itself. So sad that they've let it go.
We won't return to this "tropical paradise" when we come to Kauai next, nor would be recommend it anymore. Our excitement was quickly turned to disappointment.
翻译:2017年10月参观过这些花园后,我们爱上了它们。2025年6月再次来到岛上,我们期待着夏天的花开得更绚丽多彩。我们付了10美元的门票,开始在花园里漫步。结果却非常失望,因为周围鲜花稀少,环境也不够干净。很多植物都杂草丛生,无人照料,到处都是枯叶。其中一座真正的茅草屋现在变成了垃圾/储藏区,我们往里看,里面堆满了垃圾桶、梯子、空容器等等。整体氛围单调乏味。曾经美丽的花园如今黯然失色。我们在岛上周围的自然环境中看到的美景比花园本身更多。他们竟然放弃了它,真是令人惋惜。
下次来考艾岛,我们不会再回到这个“热带天堂”,也不会再推荐它了。我们的兴奋很快就变成了失望。
