About this property

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 with new appliances installed in 2026. 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.

We had a wonderful 2 weeks at Kiahuna. Our unit was perfect! We had 4 adults stay together and we were super comfortable. The unit has been renovated beautifully and is super close to both the beach and the lawn. We could see and hear the waves from the patio! The AC kept us cool inside and the washer dryer was an added bonus - our adult kids were extremely happy to go home with clean clothes! This unit is a first floor unit which we loved - having direct access to the garden from our patio made our exterior space feel endless. Our host was great during our stay and answered our messages quickly which made the vacation even more relaxing. We come to Kiahuna every year and have stayed in many units - we will definitely check this one out again!

Our stay on Kauai was nothing short of fabulous! Our VRBO was exactly as described in a great area with a very short walk to a wonderful beach. It’s was a very smooth check in/out process. It was clean and provided all essentials for our 8 day stay. It was nice to have a washer & dryer due to lots of hiking. The A/C was nice but not needed much. It had a nice lanai to sit on but honestly we weren’t there to enjoy it as much. It was nice to have beach towels & chairs available for the beach. It was located near many restaurants and even though it’s located on the south shore of the island, it was easy enough to travel to the north shore because we did that a few times. We will be back, for sure!

Great patio privacy with a full greeting by the birds each morning. Super comfortable bed and comfortable furniture for lounging and watching TV at night. We’ll be back to this one soon.

Decorated very nicely. Location very good. Kitchen had everything we needed, although more dishes would be nice. For those of us who opt out of housekeeping, a few more cleaning supplies like window cleaner would be nice. I would definitely recommend this unit. The A/C and washer/dryer were a definite plus.

Beautiful condo located in close proximity to one of the most beautiful beaches. The condo has everything you might need including beach chairs, an umbrella, and a cooler. Loved being able to sit out on the lanai in the mornings and evenings and see a bit of the ocean. There is a walking trail where you can walk past the Sheraton to Kauai shops and restaurants. I snorkeled in shallow waters right on the beach and saw tons of fish. Awesome location!
