Serenity awaits - located just steps from beautiful Poipu beach with A/C!

Kiahuna Plantation Resort is all you dreamed Kauai would be, and our beautiful condominium is located in the lush gardens of this vacationer's paradise. Take in partial ocean views in the dining area and on on our very private Lanai. Our inviting beach is yours to enjoy-- just a few steps from our beautiful condo.

Our unit has been updated (Unit #168 in bldg. 26), making it a more desirable unit at Kiahuna Plantation. We have one of the most private Lanais in the resort. We also now have A/C! The bedroom features a brand new Cal king bed (April 2022). Our beautiful living room also has a new queen size pull-out mattress in the sofa. Our kitchen is fully appointed for your convenience. Lounge comfortably on the private patio/lanai. Take advantage of our in-condo washer and dryer. High speed Internet and TV both in living room and bedroom. Most recently we have updated some of the decor which you will see in the pictures of the bedroom and dining areas. Our video still reflects the old decor in these two spaces but still gives you a great view and vantage point of all that our condo offers.

To make your beach time more fun, grab complimentary towels and beach chairs at the Beach Hut 'shack' near the water. A child friendly pool with slide, a gym and tennis courts are offered directly across from the resort at the Poipu Beach Athletic Club. Two golf courses, Poipu Bay and Kiahuna, are just down the road.

We are happy to provide our client references at your request. Should you find that our condo is booked during your requested dates, let us refer you to another of our partnering condos in the resort.

Kiahuna Plantation Resort is the jewel of Poipu's sunny south shore on Kauai. Nothing compares to our beautiful gardens and location. This is a fun destination for families, a romantic getaway for honeymooners, and a memorable place to celebrate special occasions.

This beautiful condo is under new ownership but has the same beautiful appointments and service you have been used to if you are a return guest.

Have a wonderful time on Kauai!
Chris and Karin Cahill


LOCAL ACTIVITIES
There is much to do if you have any time left after enjoying the beach and the amazing snorkeling right out in front of the Kiahuna Plantation. World-class golf is minutes away at Kiahuna Golf Club, or at the nearby Poipu Bay Golf Club. Make sure to explore Historic Koloa Town during your visit. Another interesting stop is the Spouting Horn, found just west of Kiahuna Plantation. Be sure to check out the free hula shows across the street in the Poipu Shopping Village. There are so many restaurants with amazing happy hours within walking distance for you to enjoy as well.

Great resort and beautiful unit

Kiahuna Plantation is a great property with a perfect beach for swimming and surfing. We stayed in unit #168, which is well renovated, very tastefully furnished and has everything you need. What we also liked is that the patio is well protected against wind and shaded.

Awesome condo close to the beach

This is a great condo with a great location close to the Marriott and close to the beach. We could easily walk to Poipu Beach and Keoki's Paradise restaurant across the road. Sitting out on the Lanai at night listening to the Luau at the Marriott. Would definitely come back!

Perfect spot

We loved staying in this condo. It felt clean and fresh and had everything we needed. This unit it very private and beautiful with the big trees, green lawn and ocean in the distance. You get all the benefits of a resort (e.g. swimming pool, clean towel exchange etc. without that commercialized 'resort feel'.

Fantastic stay in Kauai!

Our family really enjoyed our stay here! This complex has everything you'd want and restaurants/shopping is within walking distance. The condo itself was on a quiet section of the property and it was so close to the beach. It was very clean and the space was functional for a family of 4 with 2 kids. Check-in process, even after hours, was easy and communication with owners was wonderful. We appreciated having a washer/dryer as a lot of other units did not. What an amazing place! We'd love to stay again!

Great Location

We had a lovely stay here ! The property is located right on a wonderful swimming beach (Kiahuna Beach) and the Beach Hut provides complimentary beach towels and chairs as well as affordable rentals for snorkel and surf gear. The unit itself was immaculately clean, very nicely updated, and stylishly decorated. The 1-bedroom floor plan was a little bit tight for our family of four but we didn't spend much time indoors anyway. Kiahuna Plantation is a great property, lots of families, and very quiet at night. A walking trail connects to the adjacent resorts (we enjoyed the poolside restaurant Lava's at the Sheraton) as well as Poipu Beach. We hope to return!

Piece Poipu of Paradise

We loved our stay. The unit was just as advertised. We didn't use the pool as we found it inconvenient to cross the street. We preferred to spend our time on the beach, especially for the amazing sunsets. We appreciated the beach chairs and the umbrella is a must! We found the bed comfortable, and the bedroom temperature was cool enough by evening. The hosts were great and accommodating to our request to have a late checkout. Thank you for a lovely stay!

This was a lovely, well appointed condo in a fabulous location. The owner was wonderful.... Helpful and prompt! And very kind. There are lots of nearby options for eating out and fun things to do. Tip: DON'T stop by Wal-Mart to get the essentials, beach great, etc. There are many options near Poipu with even better selection and prices. Visit the Little Fish across from the resort..... Great smoothies!

Loved My Stay

Firstly, the owners are fabulous! They accommodated my needs in every way possible, going above and beyond. The resort is beautiful and well-maintained, and the condo is perfect. It is nicely decorated, and the sliding windows onto the lanai provide a beautiful view. The bed is very comfortable, and even though there is air conditioning, I didn't feel the need to use it. Being on my own, I felt safe on and off the grounds. I walked to the mall across the street and went to restaurants nearby. There is a private beach that is less than 5 minutes away, and you can easily walk to Poipu Beach and snorkel or see the turtles and seals basking in the sun.

Everything was awesome. Condo was clean, and had everything we needed. Awesome location. Very quiet and private. Exactly as we had hoped for. We have never rented like this before, and after 5 minutes I was completely comfortable. No need to ever look anywhere else. The bed was very very comfortable. We didnt need anything. It was a wonderful home away from home and would go back and recommend to our family and friends as well. Very relaxing spot and beautiful grounds and perfect location. Thank you for use of your home, you have a beautiful place and spot. We will be back. Mahalo😀 Kathy and John

Hidden Gem

This home away from home is perfect in every way. You have everything you could possibly need and it is in impeccable condition. We usually are in Kauai in February so the July heat and humidity was a bit of an issue. If this home had AC, I would rate it a 10! I had forgotten part of the Kiahuna Plantation charm were the plantation shutters and no air conditioning! We Seattlites aren’t used to the heat of Hawaii in summer. The ocean is so close though, so we were in the water often. On our last morning we snorkeled with an older spotted eagle ray right off the beach!! It was at least 5 feet wing to wing and 12 feet nose to tail tip. Amazing!

Truly paradise!

I wish you could leave 10 stars - we had an amazing stay! The property was even more beautiful that the photos. The lanai extends to a grassy yard, perfect for our daughter to run around. The beach is maybe 50 steps away but the property feels very private. Easy to walk to and set up for the beach. They even had an umbrella, Tommy Bahama beach chairs, sand toys and coolers to use. Loved the AC and laundry in unit! A huge plus when traveling with a family. The kitchen is fully stocked and we ate most meals in. Walking distance to the pool (5-10 min depending) and was a nice to enjoy. We felt very safe at the property and walking around at night. Quick drive to shopping centers and exploring the island. We had great communication and loved our stay. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful space and well stocked with everything we needed!

The owners were easy to communicate with and very friendly.We were a family of 4 (2 adults and two kids, 8 and 10) and fit very comfortably in the space. The condo was very well stocked with everything we needed (even had two beach chairs, umbrella, cooler and sand toys). Kitchen had all appliances and utensils we needed too. Our lanai opened to a grassy space that was nice and quiet. Unit had air conditioning and a washer and dryer which are not in every condo so definitely an added bonus. They also had some guide books and summer reads too. We would highly recommend this unit and would definitely stay again.
