The buildings are plantation style with louver shutters on the windows and ceiling fans circulating the ocean breeze throughout the condo.
Our condo, #167 located in Building 26, is a ground floor, end unit with partial ocean view and a semi-private lanai, less than a one-minute walk to the ocean! Enjoy a relaxed atmosphere while dining in or grill dinner on one of the two barbecues next to the lagoon just steps away. The beach hut, which supplies towels, chairs and snorkeling equipment to rent is also just a one minute walk from the condo. There are several golf courses and many restaurants within walking distance. Once booked, we will grant access to our info packet re the condo, Kiahuna and Kauai.

Great communication, quick and easy to work with. The condo’s location was great, just a minute to the beach. Everything was in good working order. We enjoyed the lanai and the open lawn in front of it. The bed was super comfortable! AC worked perfectly, cooled down the space super fast. Parking was very close by and there was always a space available.
Proximity to the beach was excellent. It’s a very short 3-5 minute walk. There are 4 beach chairs and boogie boards. Having towel cards for beach towels was fabulous and access to the poipu beach athletic club was perfect. We loved the pool with slide and drink/food service was nice. It was a bit cooler when we visited and really didn’t need the AC as the unit has lots of windows for airflow. The unit itself hasn’t been remodeled or updated as other units in the complex have. The pullout couch bed was fine for our child but if adults had wanted to sleep there it would have been uncomfortable. The king bed at first seemed soft but we slept just fine. There are cooking utensils and pots and pans but nothing else no oil, foil, salt& pepper as there has been at other properties we’ve rented. Plan to bring/buy all you need if you plan to cook. Overall loved the location but definitely not fancy.

Aloha Amber,
Thanks so much for the review and helpful feedback!
We are on island and have replaced the mattress on the sofa bed and added a board made specifically for sleeper sofas, eliminating the feel of the frame.
Due to Kauai being a tropical island, the Department of Health is strict regarding food items, including spices, being stored in short term rentals. Consequently, everything is discarded after each stay during the cleanout process. We have left salt and pepper before but the salt doesn’t store well and tends to harden up quickly once opened. I will add this note to the packet I send with each reservation.
Mahalo for making our condo your home at Kiahuna!

Wonderful stay at Kiahuna Plantation. Short walk to the beach and great location close to local shops and eateries. Free parking and access to a guest laundry room was an added bonus!
The unit was clean, conveniently located to our favorite beaches and restaurants, and we loved sitting on the patio overlooking the garden. We will come back again when we visit Poipu.
Such a great spot for our getaway to Kauai. We loved being so close to the beach so we could walk and enjoy our morning coffee listening to the waves. Being across the street from shopping and dining made it an easy to walk for anything needed.
This property itself is beautiful as well as the surrounding grounds! It is so close to the beach which is so convenient and a short walk there from the condo. We loved the beautiful coastal decor and the place was stocked with everything you need for the beach. We loved our stay here in Kauai and would definitely recommend to others and stay here again in the future!
The place was comfortable and had a very good location. Literally a one minute walk to one of the best beaches in my opinion. My wife and I enjoyed our stay and would return.
We loved our stay, so close to the beach!! It was quiet, clean and well stocked. We will definitely be back!

About the host
Hosted by Mary Ventura
We are a family of four originally from the east coast and have been living in the Seattle area since 2002.
Why they chose this property
We love the vintage feel of Kiahuna, the sounds of the ocean that we hear from the condo, the privacy of the lanai, the smell of the tropical flowers and the amazing grounds and gardens. It is a peaceful, special place that our family has enjoyed coming to every year for almost 20 years.
What makes this property unique
The closeness to the beach! Early morning walks in either direction provide expansive views of the ocean as well as sea turtles swimming in the surf, dolphins and whales (seasonally). The preserved ancient sacred grounds add to the unique feel of this very special island.
