Great location.. less than 5min walk to beach area. Lots of good places to eat nearby. Condo had extra kitchen supplies like seasonings, coffee filters, olive oil. etc..BBQ was right across the way about 50 yards. The bed was a little firm for my liking but some people. The staff was friendly and very helpful. Host was great to work with.

The condo is very clean and modernized. The AC was a huge positive, since we are from Seattle and need an adjustment period to get used to the heat. The master bedroom bed is so comfortable (our kids were jealous!). The host was prompt with her responses and the listing is very accurate. As a bonus, all the beach chairs/umbrella/boogie boards were really nice high quality items! We were a two minute walk from the beach! We also went to the athletic club twice. The gym has good equipment and the pool is more for little kids than our teens. Would stay again 5 stars!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review, Rick! We are so thrilled you and your family had a five-star stay! It’s great to hear the AC was a lifesaver coming from Seattle 😄 and we’re glad the master bed was a hit (even if the kids were a little jealous!). The beach gear is one of our favorite touches, so it means a lot that you enjoyed it. A two minute walk to the beach never gets old! We hope your crew found some fun waves with the boogie boards. Come back anytime; we would welcome your family with open arms! Mahalo, Merris

We have stayed at Kiahuna Plantation on 7 occasions, and this unit clearly outshines them all! The recent renovation has been done impeccably, and the decor is calming and lovely. The unit has everything we needed for our stay including things for the beach, which is a short walk away. The owners were responsive and helpful. I highly recommend staying here!

What a lovely condo in Kauai paradise. The unit is very well appointed with everything you need for a one week stay. Close to the beach (we didn’t use the pool) with fresh towels every day at the beach hut. The grounds of Kiahuna Plantation are meticulously maintained and a pleasure to walk around. Lots of great restaurants nearby and such fun watching the turtles come ashore at sunset down the road at Poipu Beach. You will love staying here!

The condo is in a great location, the grills are nearby but there is plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby. The Little Fish across the street is a must for coffee and breakfast items. Cabana is good for happy hour and had an island vibe. Boating on the Na’Pali is a bucket list as is the Canyon. The condo was clean and comfortable. Close to the beach. Laundry facilities were super handy with plenty of machines. We never had to wait. All went well! Aloha!

Relaxing stay in a wonderful space

Merris’s condo unit was very beautifully decorated, which added to the relaxing feel of our stay. The egg/nest chair was enjoyed by our daughters. The added amenities of boards, snorkel, cooler and chairs made it so easy to enjoy the beach right outside our property. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, and think other couples and families would love their stay here as well!!

Perfect location and extremely well appointed rental

Before our stay Merris sent an unbelievably thorough welcome letter about the property and the area. When we got there we found the unit to be similarly well-prepared: The kitchen has everything you could need, there’s extra bedding, and the hosts have supplied tons of beach gear. Given the location, the quality of the living space, and all the extras this rental comes with, I really can’t imagine a better way to visit Kauai.

Kauai retreat

We stayed in a clean, well equipped and maintained condo at Kiahuna Plantation. The facilities were manicured and beach front. Was able to rent surf boards for $10/hr and use free lawn chairs/towels. Also, we were able to walk to Po'ipu beach and beach park for swimming and snorkeling. Finally, the athletic club is a short walk with great facilities for the entire family.

Great Family Location Spot

Family of four with two boys (13 and 10). The property location was perfect for our family. We were able to walk to the beach to enjoy surfing and boogie boarding each day. In addition, we could walk 5-10 minutes to hit Po'ipu Beach and snorkel. We also enjoyed the athletic club and options to do when we wanted to avoid the crowds at the beach. The condo was fantastic and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay.

Amazing stay and location!

Merris's condo was just as described and a beautiful remodel. It had everything we needed to both explore the island, enjoy the beach and relax. My son loved the egg chair. Merris was very responsive to all our emails and even checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. We loved being able to walk out to the beach and take advantage of the athletic club amenities. I would absolutely stay here again if we visited Kauai.

Excellent!

We’ve enjoyed many family vacations at Kiahuna Plantation over the years, but this was our first time staying in this unit. It’s in a super location within Kiahuna, remodeled, well-appointed, and clean. We especially loved the morning sun on the lanai, the short walk to the beach, pool, or shops, the AC in the bedroom, and the in-unit beach chairs and boogie boards. The property manager was very responsive and also enabled us to check in early. We would absolutely stay here again! Wonderful trip!

Best vacation spot in all of Hawaii!

We've travelled extensively on Oahu, Maui, Hawaii, and Molokai and would say Kauai and Merris' beautiful condo in Poipu is hands-down the best slice of paradise we've experienced--neither overdeveloped like Oahu and Maui nor remote like Molokai, Kauai has the perfect blend of 5-star accommodations like the Kiahuna Plantation plus laid -back Aloha spirit. Merris' condo is beautifully nestled in a tropical garden, surrounded by fragrant flowers and rustling palm leaves and just a quick walk from one of the most beautiful beaches in Hawaii. We'll definitely be back!
