Overnight Parking Near Kauai Cruise Port (Nawiliwili)

[WDW Princess 71]

Hello, we are FINALLY visiting Hawaii by cruise after 4 long years of booking and covid cancellation.  Our cruise docks in Kauai (Nawiliwili Harbor) at 8:30am on Day 1 and departs at 4:45 PM the following 2nd day.  We are looking to rent a car since we've heard Ubers are very limited; however, I can't seem to find any definitive direction on where we can park the car nearby the port overnight.  I read about possibly Harbor Mall or Anchor Cove but those posts are a few years old and not sure if they are still current, or if there are other options.  We don't mind paying obviously, I just need to know where I can easily and safely park the car overnight since we have a very early morning trip the next day.

There is some parking along the road by the park between the Harbor mall and port entrance. There used to be paid parking across the street from the mall for ~$20.

You could check with the Sonesta resort to see if you can park there for a fee. It is a short walk from the ship.

We were on the may 14th sailing and there was a lot of free parking on the street in front of the port near the park. Also across that street there is a small road with an apartment complex, there is a lot of street parking right there ( this is where we parked, street name is Wilcox Rd).
