Kiahuna Plantation is a beautiful property with lush well maintained grounds. Walking through the property I was struck by the beauty of the enormous specimen trees and the orchid garden. This is not a sterile corporate style resort, but more, "Old Hawaii". It is the only condo resort on a swimmable beach in the Poipu area. We stayed in a two-bedroom  townhouse style, (upstairs and downstairs) unit. I highly recommend these 2 bedroom units, as the one bedroom units are quite small. Our unit, (#64), has a very serene view of the gardens, tulip trees, plumeria trees, palm trees of course, and the beautiful white wooden footbridges that lead to the main lawn and the beach. It had two balconies upstairs, and a private patio off the master bedroom downstairs. (Both bdrms are downstairs-kitchen living, and dining are upstairs with an incredible vaulted ceiling and large private deck with lounges and a dining table). The kitchen is well equipped and includes dishwasher, micro, coffee pot, stove, oven and full sized fridge w/freezer. There is also a stack washer & dryer. The condo, especially upstairs, has a very polynesian feel with grand vaulted ceilings of dark wood, and plantation shutters and wooden louvers on windows. I love it so much, I wanted to buy it. (Can't afford it.) The onsite beach is a crescent shaped beach backed by the lawns and palm trees of the plantation. Beach chairs, drinks and water toys are available at the towel hut next to the beach. The beach is known as a good swimming beach. Our 12 year old, who isn't a strong swimmer, had a blast bobbing around in the water with small waves. The ONLY negative to the property, is that it doesn't have it's own pool. The Kiahuna swim club across the street is included in your stay, but it isn't as nice as most hotel pools for properties of this caliber. It does have a water slide, and our 12 year old didn't care that the pool was surrounded by a chain-link fence, but the pool seemed a bit tired to us. Still, the

This is a great place to bring the kid(s). Easy walking distance to great pool and beach, especially nearby Poipu Beach Park. The play structure there was awesome, and allowed my wife and I to take turns snorkeling. The restaurants are good (stick to the fish entrees, though) and service is warm and friendly. Convenience is this place's middle name!  We will be back.

This was our 2nd stay at the Kiahuna Plantation last week. To me, it's a pretty good combination of vacation rentals by owner with some of the conveniences of a hotel. Since they are individual condos, you don't really know what you're getting. On the plus side, the layout of the unit is uniform. The one bedroom condos are nicely laid out maximizing  the living/dining area. I don't know if all units adhere to some standards. But, the two times we've stayed (different garden view units), they were both nicely updated with nice kitchens. Also, they did service the room with fresh towels and making up the bed. The unpredictables are that each unit owner equips their place differently. In our case, there was a small closet that had a beach umbrella, a boogie board, a croquet set. The kitchen was fairly spartan with basic dishes for 4. In the cabinets -- not even salt and pepper. So, that's something you can't plan for until you get there. The beach at Kiahuna is a narrow strip, but a very nice beach nonetheless. We also enjoyed the pool that is across the street. Our unit was actually fairly close to the pool. It's a small pool, but our 9-yr old really enjoyed the small waterslide. I recommend the Plantation to anyone who wants to stay in Poipu.

Poipuのコンドには何度か泊まりましたが、このコンドはいい部類だと思います。 しかしLAN環境には不満が残りました。有線のみでしたし、それも1-2度繋がったあと、1週間使えない状況が続きました。近くのスタバのWIFIでなんとか凌ぐことはできました。フロントは接続業者のせいとして、自ら対応することはありませんでした。

While I do recommend this hotel to others, it is only with hesitation. Really, the only thing going for this hotel is it's location. I think Poipu Beach is the best place to stay when visiting Kauai and you can't really do any better than this hotel with it's own beach access that is located next to Poipu Beach state park. Moreover, it is located across the street from Poipu Shopping Village with its comfortable shops and restaurants. Old Koloa Town (and more shopping and restaurants) is just a short- 10 minutes max.- drive away. Lastly, the drive to and from Lihue airport is a relatively short distance. As you read other reviews of this hotel, as I did prior to booking, you may notice that the reviews vary considerably. One person had a fantastic experience while another had a disappointing one. Count us in the latter group. We paid for a one bedroom Royal Garden View which, as per the hotel's description, came with a sofa bed in the living area. This is where we were to have our 6 year old sleep. Well, upon check-in, the woman at the front desk saw our daughter standing there with us and checked us into what she called "a great room", but did not tell us that the sofa bed was out of commission! It was obvious that it had been broken for quite some time as we went to put our daughter to bed late that night and the bed had been wired closed with a handwritten note that said "Do Not Use-Broken". When I complained about it the next morning, a different woman at the front desk looked at her hotel room map and immediately confirmed that the sofa bed did not work. She offered to move us to a room that was of lower quality or give us a roll-away bed, "free of charge". Did she expect that we would pay more? Furthermore, our Internet connection did not work and despite half a dozen calls to the help desk that they contract out to, no one ever fixed our problem. In general, the room rates here are not cheap. We felt that the management of this location is simply trying to

Each unit is individually owned, so the quality varies, and we had to change our original room due to some water leakage and the internet didn't work (something we depend on). The hotel upgraded us to a nicer room/location. Very pleased with the hotel staff, and the hotel location is great (close to the beach, close to shopping and a couple restaurants. Try to get a unit closer to the beach, or at least one unit between you and the street due to noise.

We were upgraded to a beach front view that was stunning. I don't think the hotel knew it was our 25th anniversary, but it sure put the whipped topping on the celebration. Well done condo with great ammenities. Nice artwork too. I think a Royal Garden View would have been nice as well, because the grounds are immacculate and lush. The Moir Garden was expansive and joy to explore. We never made it accross the street to the pool, tennis, or golf activites as this was mainly a water, sun, and explore trip. Things to note on our unit: Constant fresh-air breezes are used to cool the unit through screened shutters. This worked fine and let the sound of the surf in as well. There were no elevators at this building and requires bag handling/etc up a 1 story set of stairs.
