Beautiful place! And The host was very responsive. We walked down to the beach to snorkel a couple times! It was nice that the ocean and plenty of food places were within walking distance to the condo!

It is very big complex but there are tropical gardens everywhere to make each building more private. This condo overlooks the Muir Gardens which gives a lot of space between other buildings and a great view of the gardens. You had privacy on the balcony as no building was facing you. The condo was clean and bed and linens comfortable. The kitchen was equipped with basic cookware and utensils. It was nice to use the louvers around the condo for fresh trade wind breezes.

Unfortunately it was very stormy. We were happy to have a nice room to be in! Stormy stayEverything was good and accurate in the listing. The hide a bed mattress was very loud when the occupant moved at all during the night.

Excellent property. Hosts were great. Be sure to use the Alexa speaker provided to play “Slack key guitar music” or Hawaiian traditional music” to get in the Aloha spirit. Very nice lei greeting at the airport. The athletic club pool and tennis/pickleball courts are nearby.

Wonderful property in a world class location on Kauai’s South Shore. Great beaches, restaurants, shopping and access to fun activities like snorkeling & SCUBA diving, The unit had everything we could want for and meals on the lanai were special.

Our family of four (two adults, a toddler and infant) stayed here for a week in June. The location is minutes drive to all activities, food/stores and beaches. Poipu Beach (great for kids & turtle sightings) is only a few minutes drive. Lawa’i Beach, great for snorkeling & in front of Beach House Restaurant, is only a 6 minute drive. You can even walk to Kiahuna Beach behind the property for great body boarding and surfing. You also have access to the Athletic Club across the street for gym and pools (regular pool and kids pool). We didn’t use it since we wanted to explore a new beach each day. East and west shore activities are close by too!
We definitely appreciated easy parking in front, easy late check in directions from the host, towel cards provided by reception (exchange at the rental hut on Kiahuna Beach), light cleaning supplies, the pack n play crib, and all the beach gear (toys, body boards, umbrellas, chairs). I think we even saw a beach wagon but didn’t end up using it since we rented additional gear from Nana’s Baby & Beach Gear. Definitely appreciated the a/c even though the unit never got too hot with the nice breeze you get when screens are open.
Our only hiccup was reception keyed our check out incorrectly so we were locked out for a bit but they fixed the issue quickly. Also, if you need a babysitter, Childcare Kauai is great and very familiar with this location! 10/10 stay, would book again.

Had a great time at this property. Sandy and Erick (owners) are terrific communicators and quick to respond. Everything is as-advertised in the VRBO posting so I won't repeat it. Poipu Beach and some of the nearby beaches are great for snorkeling, swimming, surfing, and boogie boarding. The Poipu Beach Athletic Club has fantastic facilities and makes this location even more appealing if you want to go to a proper gym / play tennis / swim in a pool / etc.
A few tips - condo has pretty much everything you need in terms of utensils and cookware, but there is nothing in terms of condiments / cooking oils, just some salt/pepper and one morning's worth of drip coffee. If you're hitting up Costco or a grocery store on your way in, pick up any oils / seasonings that you need to cook your food or else you'll find yourself driving back to Lihue (or the Big Save in Koloa). I am not a fan of drip coffee, so I brought a Moka Pot with me and picked up some good coffee at Kauai Coffee Company (about 10 mins away). Made breakfasts on the lanai that much better!
Recommend walking around the paths near the condo when you arrive - there are a few different ways to get to the beach and there are new-ish gas bbq grills in both directions.
Great property and fantastic hosts. 100% recommend!

The property is absolutely gorgeous and immaculate! It is close to the beach and at the same time, close to the Athletic Club. It's quiet, comfortable, clean. There are plenty of beach chairs and beach toys. The hosts are very good at taking care of their guests and are super responsive to any questions of any of your needs. I would definitely recommend this property and we will most definitely be back to stay there again. I can't say this enough -- very, very impressive.

The grounds were beautiful, it was a quick walk to a beautiful beach. The condo was cute and quaint with all the basics. I especially enjoyed having equipment for the beach. It was a great stay!

We had a very relaxing and pleasant stay here. The unit is located within the beautiful Kiahuna Plantation and overlooks well-kept gardens. The unit isn't fancy but is very comfortable and has everything you might need for your stay, including a well-appointed kitchen, plenty of beach equipment, a/c in the bedroom, and a large lanai for enjoying the sunrises and sunsets. The location was quiet, and just a short stroll through the gardens to get to the largely uncrowded beach. Several restaurants/shops and the athletic club (with pool/gym access) are right across the street which was very convenient.

This area is beautiful with excellent beaches a short walk away and lush, lovely landscaping, including an orchid garden. The condo was clean, comfortable and perfect for our stay. We loved the sunsets over the ocean as we walked along the beaches as well as the sea turtles and seals lounging on the tidal area.and the many beach activities as well as jaunts up and down the coast. We would return in a flash. Mahalo!!

We really enjoyed staying here. It was perfect for our family of three (we have a 12 yr old daughter). I feel like if we had one more kid in tow it would work, but would be tight. (Finding space for the luggage would be the challenge, though doable). The pull out bed was perfect for our daughter and she loved having all of that living room space and hearing all of the birds and ocean from afar every night. The bedroom’s bed is a king and comfy. The bedroom has a sliding door and plantation shutters that can be closed between the living room and bedroom for privacy. However, in order to cool down the place you need to have them open as well as the shutters at the front of the condo to get that perfect breeze. The a/c unit is situated in front of the shutters at the front, which cools things in the bedroom.
The unit is easy to access, and you park right in front of the building. Watch out for the trees because they will drop a lot of stuff on your car if you park under them. There is a super handy foot wash faucet in the planter right in front of the building if you are sandy from beach time. All of the personnel we encountered at Kiahuna Plantation were incredibly nice. The grounds are beautiful to stroll, and we liked walking them to Kiahuna beach. There are tons of orchids, rocks, trees, plants, tiny lizards and geckos to see. After this beautiful stroll, you get to the Sheraton building which you can walking through or next to it to immediately access the beach.

Erick was a very responsive host who was easy to communicate with. The unit is in a good location with somewhat easy access to the beach (a short walk). It was wonderful to have beach chairs provided.
I do think the unit could use some updating and attention to detail. It felt a little dark and dated, with small things like floorboards being cut too short and molding/baseboards a little dingy. The bathroom (tub/shower) also felt a little dingy and the screen door to the balcony does not open and close easily.
Overall, the unit was comfortable but some sprucing up and more kitchen necessities would improve the overall guest experience.

Property located with in walking distance to shopping and beaches. Condo provided beach chairs ,boogie boards and other beach things which was great! We were a little disappointed that there were no basic seasonsonings available like salt and pepper. The only negative for us was the bed mattress was very uncomfortable. Seems like a nice foam topper might help that.

Place was just as described. Perfect location for all the activities on the south side. You could walk anywhere if you wanted to. Access to the athletic club was awesome too! All the beach toys was nice for the family.
