Location: Kiahuna Plantation, Poipu, South Kauai, Kauai, Hawaii, USA (Kiahuna Plantation Resort-25 minute drive from Lihue Airport)
Accommodations: Condominium, 1 Bedroom + Convertible bed(s), 1 Bath (Sleeps 2)
Kiahuna Plantation is located at famous Poipu Beach, known for its warm sunny days and soft tropical breezes, on the beautiful Garden Isle of Kauai. It is Poipu's only sandy beach-fronted condominium resort. Kiahuna's plantation-style architecture provides a romantic, peaceful setting with its 35 acres of sprawling lawns, lush tropical trees and gardens, including the largest orchid garden in Hawaii, lily ponds and a private lagoon.
Our guests can amble down the sidewalk lined with plumeria trees and bright bougainvillea to the white sandy beach where they will find complimentary beach chairs and towels at the Beach Hut. The Hut also has a variety of beach and equipment for rent or purchase. The beach is fronted by a sprawling, manicured lawn and palm trees for those who like to relax in the shade or on the sandy beach while watching the surfers, snorklers and swimmers. Poipu Beach was rated #1 by The Travel Channel in 2003 and has been chosen as one of the most beautiful beaches in America. We feel certain you will concur after strolling in the sand at sunrise, sunning in the afternoon, or enjoying a spectacular sunset at the beach!
Our plantation-style beach house #123 is on the top (third) floor of Building 18, which is located between the beach and the swimming pool/tennis courts. From the moment you open your front door you will enjoy the gentle cooling breezes and breathtaking views of the swaying palms, bright blue ocean and luxuriant landscaping--you can feel the everyday stresses begin to melt away immediately! The spacious lanai is furnished with a bar-height table and swivel chairs so you have a wide, open view of the ocean and grounds without the lanai railing interfering, and two lounge chairs--a perfect place to relax and listen to the surf.
Step into your vacation home and you'll find an airy, spacious and very tastefully furnished condominium with views to complement. As you'll see in the attached photos, we've completely remodeled using top line interiors including slab granite counters, travertine tile walk-in shower, bamboo flooring, and all new appliances, cabinetry, lighting, furniture and fixtures--and we invite you to enjoy them as you would your own home. You'll find a completely furnished kitchen where you can prepare anything from fresh papaya and coffee in the morning to fancy umbrella drinks and gourmet dinners to enjoy on your private lanai in the evening--this is, if you can stop treating yourselves to delicious choices at Poipu's many wonderful restaurants! Should you prefer, there are several gas BBQ grills on the property (fresh island fish on one of the grills by the lagoon is hard to beat!).
Once you're comfortably settled you will find a myriad of activities available to you. The Concierge at the Activities Desk is happy to assist with reservations for anything from dinner to helicopter tours, sunset cruises, tee times at one of many nearby (and famous!) golf courses, horseback rides or luaus--you name it and the Concierge can most likely arrange it for you.
There are a number of excellent restaurants in close proximity to Kiahuna Plantation, including our own Plantation Gardens, that are just a short walk from #123. You'll find a menu book located at the Front Desk.
We provide on-site management, staffed 24 hours a day. You will check in on-site, like a hotel, and will have the friendly staff available to assist you in any way they can.
We fell in love with Kauai 29 years ago and have many wonderful memories--we hope you will, too!

Such a beautiful setting and view---gardens, ocean, lawn and the occasional visiting bird on the lanai. The condo renovation is fantastic and we feel lucky to have such an attractive, comfy unit.
Positive Rating
Your taste in furnishings, decorations and other comforts is impeccable. Paradise was both inside and out.

Wow! We're here on our honeymoon, and staying here is exactly what we had in our minds of a honeymoon! Your condo is so pretty and relaxing with a great view of the ocean! It's a perfect location---walkin distance to the shopping/food and the beach!
Positive Rating
We had a great time in Kauai and a big reason was your wonderful unit. Having gone through a recent renovation of our home, we can appreciate the time and effort in making this place look great. The unit has a home feel to is rather than the typical resort condo with bland furnishings.
Positive Rating
This was our first visit to Kauai. We both felt blessed that we were able to call your beautiful condo home while we were here. Without a doubt your condo is the BEST accomodation we have ever stayed in. We loved the granite that you chose for the kitchen and bathroom. Also, we noticed all the little touches that you added, like the 3 ceiling fans, and the bathroom light fixtures. You can be sure that we will highly recommend your home to our friends and relatives.

How do we describe this most beautiful tropical paradise? The brand new accomodations are done with beauty, practicality and with excellence. The view from our lanai is exquisite. We were delighted to stay in a brand new condo, with a great view, a very peaceful and quiet setting and within easly walking distance of anywhere in the resort and restaurants located nearby.
Positive Rating
The condominium was everything we expected and much, much more! It was beautifully furnished and renovated and had such amazing views. The location was perfect---walking distance to the best beaches & resorts, restaurants, shopping, etc.
Positive Rating
The first night we could hear the water and then we were awe-struck the next morning to see the breath-taking views from the lanai. What an inspiring place to sit quietly, enjoy beauty and feel peace. You've thought of everything and we felt so blessed all week with the quality, comfort and simple, elegant tastefulness of our accomodations, especially compared to others we caught glimpses of through the week. You can certainly decorate and know all the right touches to add to make a person feel both pampered and at home at the same time.
Positive Rating
Your beach home is beautiful, comfortable and filled with items that made our stay one we will remember fondly. It's such a pleasure to enter a tastefully decorated home which matches or complements the natural beauty outside. One day we had to spend most of our day inside due to torrential rains and we were happy to call #123 our home!
Positive Rating
Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. #123 is exceptional. We loved everything about it. Above everyone with and oh-so-awesome view. The condo is set up with so many little extras that we will love going back to this same condo.
