Beautiful grounds and easy beach access. Didn’t like 3 sets of stais to our room. High hidden cleaning fees.

This our 2nd time at Kiahuna Plantation. We are experienced travelers that don't want or need to be "pampered", so we like the ability to have a kitchen and cook local foods, and the opportunity to do our own planning of our vacation experience. This isn't the fanciest place, but by comparison it is a good value. The grounds are beautiful and the beach is better, bigger and less crowded than Poipu Beach (which is also easily accessible by walking). If you want an all-inclusive, upscale "resort" experience this probably isn't for you, but if you want a comfortable, well-located base for your adventures with a great beach, give it a try. We recommend it to our friends that are visiting Kauai. This time we were near the east access road, and it was noisy at times with trucks, equipment etc. Request a unit in the middle or the west side of the 35 acre site.

The unit has NO air conditioning (as of May 2024). I somehow missed this detail when booking and it made for a fairly uncomfortable night. The ceiling fans help, but after a long day in the sun, a 75-degree room just doesn't cut it. The unit is also very dated in terms of furniture, decor, amenities, etc. On the plus side, location is great and grounds were beautiful. The staff could not have been nicer.

There is no air conditioner so in the afternoon the condo would reach close to 90 degrees if the sun was shining. Furniture old,shabby and uncomfortable. For the price this rental is not worth it.

This condo was perfect. We had everything we needed. Bed was very comfy. Kitchen was great. Lanai is big and we enjoyed eating out there and listening to the birds early am. Shopping across the street was easy and convenient and walkable. Parking was super easy and convenient and at no extra charge. Definitely would come back and recommend. Mahalo🌈

We really enjoyed our stay here. We have 3 children and they loved it here. The walk to the beach was very short, the little trails on the property were so fun for the kids! The property is beautiful and very well kept and maintained.

The condo was tired and needing updating. There were noisy neighbors and the nearby Sheraton hotel had outdoor luau’s that were very loud. The beach was nearby though. Parking was not good.

Didn't like there was no a/c. Unit was stuffy and hot. Grounds keepers were out in semi-private backyard running gas equipment in 8 am while we were having breakfast. Since the unit was open air we could smell gas inside. Misleading that it is waterside as can't access or see beach due to hedges. Also misleading about pool as it not on property across the street Also seems misleading that a pool is nearby as it is across the street from the property.

Needs maintenance
The location is amazing, great beach, walking distance to restaurants/shopping. The unit we stayed in was grimy and moldy, stains on the walls and furniture, broken door handles, and a stove that was barely functional because burners that did not fit had been stuck in there anyhow. Staff were helpful, but this goes beyond housekeeping. Management seemed sympathetic, and said they would pass the info along to the owners, but the Comments Book in the unit had people complaining about this last year and the year before. All in all, way way overpriced for a shabby unit.

Overall a very nice property but we were surprised that the units do not have air conditioning. Maybe we were mistaken to assume that the property would have air conditioning, but "plantation style" is not a clear statement to that effect. We could have left the window slats open at night to let the air through, but everyone coming up the stairs to adjoining units would have been able to look right into the bedroom and living area. Also the pool, while very nice, is actually contracted from another company and is across the highway and up the hill from the resort. It was nice but again a little bit of a surprise that it wasn't located on the property.

Really enjoyed our time here. The unit itself (#249), has a nice view and the kitchen had everything we needed. The bathroom could use a deep clean and, to me, the toilet was comically low (not a deal breaker, just something that I didn't like), but you get used to it. I loved the location! Close to the beach, shops across the street and the health club that you have free access to is amazing. It's a 5min walk away and had a beautiful pool, gym facility, tennis courts and restaurant.

Overall was fine though without windows i.e. just screens and shades, it was loud at times. People tend to ensure their vehicles are locked by beeping the horn at least three times - must be a local ordinance or something. The roosters are working overtime.

For the price we paid, this was a really good location. Far from the beach but with an ocean view. Rather spend time at the beach than $$ for a beach-side unit. GREAT snorkeling for my novice wife. Loved the good water visibility for an October visit. Lots of fish to see in safe waters. Sea turtles come onto the beach at night and are there into the late morning. At this time of year, snorkeling is pretty much out on the north shore of Kaua’i. Good and close by shopping and eateries. Loved Poipu!

I can't recommend staying here. The location is very good, but the unit we stayed in was pretty disappointing and we had problems with the staff. Our unit was at least 20 years old, everything was incredibly dated, the main bathroom smelled like a sewer until we ran the water for 10 minutes and the biggest issue was the advertised sleeper couch was about 30 years old with a mattress so gross and dated, I didn't even want to sit on it. Every spring poked through, no way anyone would have been comfortable on this, it was not a viable option but we planned our trip thinking there would be a sleeping option in the living room. Our key card continually didn't work, we got locked out nearly every time we left and had to go to the front desk to exchange keys. Then they tried to blame me and say I was deactivating it. Finally security came and cleaned the panel and gave us 4 new keys on the 2nd to last day, which worked. Another thing to note is that there is no pool onsite, you have to cross the main street to use the athletic club pool.
