Beautiful week in the surf and sand.

My three sisters and I loved staying here. We could see the ocean from our deck and loved walking to the beach several times each day to swim. We feel like we really lucked out on the location with such easy close access to the beach. Management was very quick to respond to our needs, and the owner was fabulous.

This property is not as advertised. From the pictures posted, I had no idea that we would be overlooking a public parking lot with people coming and going by vehicle and foot from 6 AM to 9 PM to access the beach. The one picture of the lanai that is included, you can see in the bottom right corner the edge of a vehicle. If you imagine zooming out this picture, you will be overlooking an entire parking lot from both the upstairs and the downstairs lanai. We were unhappy with the quality and the upkeep of the property from the moment we stepped in, and tried to get out of the rental within 24 hours of the beginning of our stay. We communicated clearly with the host our displeasure, and she refused to let us out. Additionally, lightbulbs were burnt, outlets only half worked, cracks were in the kitchen floor, kitchen cabinet doors wouldn’t stay shut, and the water pressure was terrible. It was so inconvenient that we had to go buy our own extension cords to get fans placed in front of windows for proper airflow. If you go back and view her negative comments, you will find others with similar experiences up to 10 years ago. This shows a pattern of behavior and an unwellness to accurately list this property. Why VRBO hasn’t pulled her from their site yet, I do not know. Be very careful with this one. NOT WORTH THE MONEY, and we know what to expect after many previous VRBO rentals.

Perfect location

Have stayed in several units at the kiahuna plantation over the years. This unit was steps to the beach. Dedicated parking spot. Actually we had 2 cars not a problem. The unit is exactly as posted furnishings are simple but adequate kitchen well stocked Plenty of linens towels etc. my grandson slept on the pullout couch and stated it was comfortable. Washer and dryer in unit but need to provide your own soap. Lanai very large and wonderful view. Unit next to Sheraton and can hear nightly luaus beautiful orchid garden as you come out of unit if you’re a golfer excellent course minutes away. We used beach chairs every day Several stores and restaurants within walking distance. Large swimming pool also across the street if you don’t mind walking there. Only issue which is a minor one was lighting in kitchen was sparse otherwise great unit. Will probably book again on our next visit

Beautiful Condo on the South Side

This is a very nice two bedroom condo located right on the Kiahuna beach. The upstairs is open and comfortable. The downstairs has the two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The Kiahuna Plantation is a beautiful area which is landscaped beautifully. We sat on the lanai and watched the ocean roll in. The owner is good to communicate with. We enjoyed our 8-day stay here from Sept. 2 through Sept. 10 and would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Lovely Beach Condo with Ocean View

The location was fantastic!! We loved the fresh beach towels every day, and the gardens were impeccably maintained. The outdoor gas grills were cleaned daily making them great to use. We cooked most of our meals, and the kitchen was overall well equipped. The outdoor table and chairs on the balcony overlooking the ocean were appreciated for daytime games, meals, and drying our towels! The pool and gym area at the back of the club was fantastic. Our adult children especially loved the racquet ball courts and the sports bar, and utilized the weight equipment as well. Communication with our hostess was timely and very helpful. We’ll definitely be back.

Great Location Tired Condo

The condo is located just beyond the parking for beach access next to the Sheraton Poipu. The ocean views from the familyroom, balcony and the master bedroom are fabulous. The condo though is dated, with dirty carpet, old appliances, a dead electrical outlet, a couple light bulbs out and leaky second bath shower. This property could shine with a little TLC. But I won't rent again as it stands now.

Not what I was hoping for

The owner and condo were great. The location was beautiful as were the grounds and gardens. The staff was very pleasant. Many nice restaurants to enjoy with a very nice beach. Perhaps we have become spoiled by our experience on Maui but from 9 am to 3 pm the noise is non stop. The sounds of industrial leaf blowers, trimmers, mowers and maintence carts driving on the walkways took away from our experience. Unfortunately this was out of the control of the owner, she passed along our concerns to the grounds managers. If your looking for a great base to explore the Island this condo is ideal. If you like to just stay in one spot and relax in peace and quiet this is not the place for that, we are sorry to say.

Beautiful place. Pictures don’t do it justice! 1 min walk to beach

Lovely, pictures don’t do it justice! The front bedroom got lots of breeze though our daughter thought it hot in the back bedroom. The beach is close, and it’s a lovely spot for hanging out all day, only about 1 min walk away! Larissa was very responsive - wish we could have stayed longer! A couple things to note - the grounds are immaculate but while we were there the grounds keeping staff was pretty constant with the sound of weedwackers and other motorized gardening tools during the day, most of the time we were at the beach so no biggie but when we wanted to relax at the house it was a bit annoying at times, we actually left once just because of the sound. But hey - got us out into the sun:) also would have been nice to have a couple staples (olive oil, large salt/pepper (vs take out packets) in kitchen. Bottom line - would definitely stay again!!!!

Three ladies celebrate a birthday

We had an absolutely delightful two-week vacation. The Kiahuna Plantation condo was all it said it would be--and more. Believe the pictures you see on the condo web site. Evening meals on the upper lanai were enhanced by a perfect ocean view under starlit skies. Couldn't imagine a more lovely place to spend our vacation. It truly felt like our home away from home. The condo's tropical decor theme added to our pleasant daily routines while "home". The condo owner was so gracious answering all questions relating to our stay, prior and after, and offered many helpful tips which we used daily. One was the Sunset Dinner special across the street at Keiki's Restaurant--a fantastic tropical waterfall setting and exceptional dinner! You have to stop at Lappert's Ice Cream shop for some of the most unusual A-plus ice cream flavors. Historic Koloa Town is a stone's thrown away and a convenient place to grocery shop, gas up, and buy your Kauai souvenirs. The town is also your gateway to the rest of the island, making Kiahuna Plantation the ideal location on Kauai. The plantation grounds are immaculate, extensive, and abounding with flowering trees and shrubs, along with Moir Cactus Garden. Across the lagoon, grilling stations and picnic tables offered an alternative to indoor meals. Daily walks around the plantation found us surrounded by orchids and unusual tropical trees and plants. The Po'ipu coast was our best choice and there was lots to do. We rented a car--definite recommendation--and had no problems getting around the island. With a two-week stay, we experienced everything on our "must see" list--all coast lines, Waimea Canyon, Wailua River/Fern Grotto, Duke's Canoe Club on Nawiliwili Beach, Lynngate Beach Park, the entire North Shore including the historic lighthouse and wildlife refuge. We finally saw a Nene, the Hawaiian state bird and its newborn chick. Although we took a Captain Andy's catamaran cruise to Napali, we would recommend another cruise. Captain Andy's cruise was at warp speed through the waves and everyone on the boat was soaked to the skin. Still enjoyed the magnificent view of the Napali mountains. Smith's Gardens and luau is a must and, in our opinion, the best price for the best show on the island. Couple Wailua River/Fern Grotto with Smith's for a great discounted price. If you want that special vacation, this is the condo to consider. You won't regret your choice. Would I return? In a heart beat!

Would Not Stay Here Again

We have booked through VRBO over 10 times with repeated stays at a couple of places. Our experiences with VRBO have all been very positive until this one. My biggest complaint is that we had cockroaches. Our family has traveled to Hawaii 7 times now and we have never seen a cockroach before this trip (I had actually never seen one alive in my life before this trip). The owner said that cockroaches are common on the islands and a "nuisance" at this resort, but I have never experienced that in any condo/hotel in Hawaii ever before. We did not even feel like we could cook here because of the roaches we saw in the kitchen. The property managers told us that they would be happy to move us to another unit (they spray all the units regularly to try and avoid this problem) IF we had booked with them. Since we booked through the owner, they said there was nothing that they could do but call the exterminator for 2 days later. Also, the view in the photo from the condo in this listing is deceptive as it shows the beach, but they cropped out the parking lot that is right in front of the condo. There are cars in and out at all times of night and much more foot traffic than I would have thought. In addition to this, the microwave did not work, many lights were burnt out (maintenance did come fix these for us the next day) and the TV works but has large fuzzy lines down half of the TV no matter what you are watching - TV or movie. It is not as clean and nice looking as the photos make it look. The condo is in a decent location and we like the resort with the grassy area above the beach (about a 5 minute walk from the condo). We alerted the owner of the cockroaches right away and she did get back to us, but just said that she hates cockroaches too and is sorry we had to deal with them - she did not do anything to help us or compensate us in any way. She called management to see about the exterminator, but it did not help expedite anything. I also wanted to add that I have never left a negative review on a place that we have stayed before and again, have always had great experiences with VRBO until now, but then again, we have never had cockroaches. I saw all the positive reviews for this place so we were really excited - maybe we were just unlucky with the week we had the condo, but it definitely put a damper on our travel to Kauai.

About the host

Hosted by Larissa Bonner

Host profile image
We are a family with two very active teenage boys and we live in a town just north of Houston, TX called The Woodlands. We began going to Kauai in about 2005 and absolutely fell in love with it on the first trip! We love spending our summers on the island hiking, snorkeling, surfing and relaxing on the beach!

Why they chose this property

Kiahuna Plantation is a gorgeous property on one of the best beaches on the island! It is walking distance to several restaurants and great shopping center.

What makes this property unique

Kiahuna Plantation is the only beach-front condo property in Poipu and our unit has some of the best views right from the living room! The lanai is the perfect place to watch the surfers in the summer and the whales in the winter!
