Needs some updating but nice location and size for a family of 5. We had other families staying at the same development with nicer/updated condos for the same or at a lower cost.

Thank you for a wonderful stay. The property is in the best location! The property is stunning. Beautiful views from the condo and watched whales from the balcony. We think your condo was so great that we can’t wait to return and rebook! Look no further for a wonderful and easy choice. Thank you!

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.

We've stayed at Kiahuna 4 times now and it's just the best. This location has an ocean view. At first I was worried because the public parking area is right outside, but it was very quiet. The living room is well furnished and the bathrooms are very nice. The bed was kind of bouncy, but otherwise we had an excellent stay.

Traveled with senior citizens and little kids. Worked great to all. Right next to sheraton and a short walk to poipu beach. You wont gobwronf with this. Only watch out is the pool is across the road but that didnt bother us.

Our 3 night stay was fabulous. The unit was exactly as described and Larissa was a great host. She responded quickly and made the process easy. The unit is spacious and airy, we loved the sound of the ocean every night and the view off the balcony right to the beach. It's a beautiful resort with a location that can't be beat.

Great location and very comfortable accommodations. Super easy to walk across the street to hang out at the beach. Also, easy access to see the sunrise and sunset. I appreciated the peacefulness of the property with the easy access to the beach, bars and restaurant. Very comfortable place to stay for 3 adults.

We have stayed at the Kiahuna for possibly 50 ish years. From the map this unit appears to be off to the side, but really it is such a fab location! Great ocean view from the balcony and great access to the beach. We loved our stay here. We had a few conversations with the owners, who assisted us with early access to the unit as our flight arrived early. Everything in the unit was as described, everything we needed and very comfy. Hoping we will be back next year.

This was our 2nd time staying at Kiahuna Plantation and first time in this unit. Such an incredible spot. Close to amenities (short walk to Sheraton cafe or across the street shopping Center), the beach right out front has amazing snorkeling. The pool at the Athletic Club is lots of fun for kids & adults, love the pool side service. The common BBQs are great. Would highly recommend this spot!!

This was a great place to stay for week. The location was perfect with the beach just a stone's throw and a great view of the water. It had everything we needed and would definitely stay again. Gym/tennis across the street, walking distance to shops and restaurants. Our host, Larissa was excellent with her communication and we were very lucky to find such a great place.

This condo is in a nice beach location, you literally walk across a parking lot and are at the beach, it is clean, they will refresh your towels, there are beach towels, chairs, umbrella, and barbq near by. We received a message the afternoon before we arrived that the refrigerator was not working well and there had been a new one ordered but until then (wouldn't arrive while we were there) don't invest in groceries until we see if it is working! We were renting 3 condos for our family of 14 (6 are children) that were spread out over the property. We needed working refrigerators in each condo, it was advertised that it included appliances so I assumed they would be working. We asked for an ice chest with ice and they do not have either. So we ran back and forth from condo to condo. A family with 4 children were in that condo and after washing the first load of clothes in the washing machine discovered the dryer did not work. So in the rainy humid weather we were hanging wet clothes and also trying to use other dryers. It was our first big family vacation and this was pretty frustrating. The management at the site sent an appliance repair guy to fix the dryer and was unable to repair it. The other 2 condos we rented (different owners) were great, everything worked. It is a lot of money to have things not working. I think you should not rent it out (or at least give warnings much further in advance that things are not working) until everything is either in excellent dependable working condition or newly replaced. Just be aware the pool is located across the street. You can walk but if you have children with you driving may be necessary. The beds were good and there were mattresses for the two younger kids to sleep on flour.

The condo was beautiful with incredible views from the top floor, comfy beds, great furniture, etc. The grounds were lovely with birds and flowers everywhere. The location is great, across from a shopping center and down the road from Poipu Beach. The only challenge was that the pool is across the street from the property -- across a busy road -- so that was a bit of a hassle. Because it was rainy and windy, the beach at the condo was often rough and we regretted not having a pool onsite. That was the only drawback. Otherwise, a wonderful property.

Lovely beachfront location within the property. Athletic club/pool area however quite far from unit . Unit very roomy but could use some updates (dryer not working properly, new toaster needed). Sleeping with the windows opened and enjoying the ocean breezes wonderful until the roosters start crowing at 5am (the only time AC was missed). Very good but not quite excellent.

This property was perfect for our vacation. Ocean view, walking distance to the beach, shopping center, and pool. Where else can you swim, surf, and snorkel right in front of your condo? The membership to the athletic club is an added bonus. After a full day at the beach, you can swim in the pool, relax in the jacuzzi, and have a drink or stay for dinner.

This property was perfect for our family and only steps from the beach. We loved having 2 levels with the bedrooms downstairs and living area upstairs. The unit is well appointed and has everything we needed for a 10 day stay including beach chairs and grilling tools. As noted in other reviews the heat options do not work on the dryer and it is also missing the lint trap so we had to hang all of our clothes to dry.

Everything was accurately described in the VRBO listing. Clean, very close to the beach, plenty of space for our group. We'd definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay! The condo was clean, nice view of the ocean. There is a public parking lot within view, but it didn’t bother us. All amenities were as listed, only issue was no heat to the dryer. The grounds are well kept and the beach was wonderful! Larissa was quick to respond and very accommodating allowing us a late departure. Would stay again!

This condo and complex is BEAUTIFUL and a great location. The condo has an ocean view from the upstairs lanai. Just a few steps to the beach/water. Very nice ocean view "Lava" restaurant next door. Some suggestions for the owner: *Kitchen needs: -Set of sharp cutting knives -cutting boards -aluminum foil and plastic wrap -kitchen towels, sponge for sink -spray cleaner for table and counters *Bathroom needs: -updated hair dryers -more hooks or racks to hang towels -full length mirror Suggestions for Condo in General: -updated kitchen and bathroom cabinets (other condos are updated) -high top table with high chairs for upper lanai to more comfortably view ocean Overall, the condo is very nice. New flooring is beautiful. Beds very comfortable. We would rent here again and again. Aloha

If looking for a place to stay in Poipu, look no further. This condo is located on a beautiful beach that is swimmable, even saw some turtles. This unit has ocean views. The kitchen is a full-size kitchen and has lots of counter space. Even though we did not use it, there is an added bonus of a washer dryer in the unit. Being a corner unit allows for cross breezes with the windows open. The owner also provides portable fans to help cool things off if needed. If looking for a place to stay in Poipu, this unit is it!

This was a great property (Kiahuna Plantation). I was concerned about no A/C but once you have the louvers open, the cross winds are plenty to keep this place very comfortable. It had a King, Twin and sleeper sofa. We had a very short stay, but enjoyed the unit and property and easy access to all the places we like to go to on Poipu. Just a heads up, the unit is at the beach front part of the property which makes for incredible ocean views and access, but is also right by the public beach access and parking so there is some activity (sometimes later into the night) that you can hear in the unit because you have all the windows open for ventilation. Still, I would rent again and really enjoyed the convenience of its location.

about as close to the beach as you can get! nicely furnished, comfy beds, plenty of space, 2 lanais, beautiful grounds, park like. at the end of a cul-de-sac so a little traffic noise at times, but nothing that affects your stay. Would stay again for sure!

Our unit had a wonderful location with a great view. The unit needed a bit more deep cleaning in the bathroom and bedrooms. There was no closet in the second bedroom. We could not figure out how to turn off the ceiling fan in the living room. The hairdryer in the master bedroom that was attached to the wall needs to be replaced. The plug in was cracked. We were afraid to use it. Other than that we enjoyed the unit. It was spacious and well supplied.

The unit was clean, updated, and perfect for our family of 6. It is the closest to the best beach on Kauai! The pool and athletic club are across the street, but we love playing pickle ball, tennis, and ping pong there! We also love the restaurant at the pool! The furniture and showers were all nice and comfortable. You can hear the waves as you fall asleep!

Larrisa’s place is exactly as pictured. It was clean and check-in was easy. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space for the 4 of us. We loved the lanai and spent a lot of time enjoying the ocean view and breeze on it. The lanai is also a great place for star gazing, we could even see the Milky Way! The beach at the townhouse is wonderful and the resort makes it easy to get beach towels and chairs at the beach hut. The parking lot between the house and ocean is busy but we did not notice excessive noise.

Condo was awesome! Property was great! Location was super convenient. Would have been nice to have bikes or be able to rent them. Had to walk or drive everywhere. Also, wish there were boogie boards, sand toys available with unit. Not sure if it was mentioned or not but there was NO tv in the 2nd bedroom downstairs which kids did not like. I was not too concerned about NOT having air conditioning because my family is always cold and after reading the many reviews it wasn’t necessary. However, we were HOT all day and night. Very uncomfortable even with the fans running. It was very hard to get dressed and go out in the evening without sweating to death. Loved the condo but definitely will watch the time of year we stay there again. Air conditioning is a must when visiting in the middle of summer. Larissa gave us a ton of info which helped a lot when deciding where to eat and which beaches to go to. Very helpful. Condo was clean and had all the necessities.

Roomy and such a great location. Our grandson found all the kids DVDs. The pool, a 5 to 10 minute walk was absolutely fantastic for our 2 1/2 year old grandson (food by the pool was good as well). Beautiful ocean view, great beach and wonderful gardens. We really enjoyed our stay. Thanks Larissa.

This was our first visit to the island and we couldn't have picked a better place or location to stay. My husband and I and our four children had the most wonderful time. We will definitely be back and would love to stay in this condo again. Thank you Larissa for renting out your beautiful place.

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.

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.

Our condo was perfect 2 bedroom 2 bath with a sleeper sofa , very roomy and charming , 2 lanai"s with a great view of ocean and small public park less than 100 yards away and a beautiful lagoon with plenty of flowers and plants, landscaped very nice ,would recommend, I would stay here again.

We just spent a week at the Kiahuna plantation. The condo was amazing. It felt as if the owners had though of everything - from the beach basket to the toddler gate for the stairs. We were 6 adults and one toddler and the condo was very comfortable. We spent a lot of time cooking, so the fact that the kitchen was well equipped was a big deal for us. And since we had a toddler with us, we really appreciated the washer and drier. We loved the view from the lanai and had dinner there a few times. The location of the whole complex can't be beat. We spent a lot of time on the beach and walked over to the Poipu beach where our toddler could run around more freely. The waves were pretty big right in front of the condo so we had to keep an eye on him. We also tried the tennis club. We played a few games a tennis and enjoyed the pool. Again, the toddler was a big fan of the wading section and the water slide. We would come back here in a heartbeat. One week felt a bit too short. Also, we tried the restaurant right on the property and the food was really good.

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!

The location of this condo was excellent; just steps from the beach. The large upper deck/lanai had a view of the beach, and a dining table and lounge chairs. It was a spacious, comfortable condo. The washer/dryer was a bonus. The pool was across the street, not on site. There was a nice fitness center. The complex provided beach chairs, no lounges or umbrellas. We enjoyed our stay and would stay in this unit again.

We were lucky enough to spend 9 days in this beautiful condo. It is tastefully decorated with a totally relaxed atmosphere, we felt right at home. This condo also has the best beach view in the resort!
