HURRICANE LOWELL UPDATE — OCTOBER 2026

Kiahuna Plantation and the Poipu area are actively recovering from Hurricane Lowell. Unit 44 fared well, and cleanup and repairs continue throughout the property. Kiahuna has confirmed that the property is safe to walk around, although some areas remain fenced while recovery work continues.
Due to storm-related erosion, there is currently no direct beach access from Kiahuna's Great Lawn. Kiahuna Beach remains accessible from other nearby public access points. The Beach Hut is temporarily closed while Kiahuna works toward rebuilding it; surf lessons are being offered from a temporary location on the property, and beach towels will be provided in Unit 44 for our guests during this transition.
On-site guest laundry is temporarily unavailable while new washers and dryers are on order, with reopening currently anticipated in late November. Community BBQ grills are available and being cleaned daily.
We’ll continue to keep upcoming guests updated as conditions change.

Unit 44 at Kiahuna Plantation is a fully remodeled and newly updated ground-floor end unit with split A/C in both the living room and bedroom — just a 2-minute walk to Kiahuna Beach and the Great Lawn.

Combining Kiahuna's relaxed island atmosphere with a completely updated interior, Unit 44 features a remodeled kitchen, remodeled bathroom with spacious walk-in tiled shower, and ceramic wood-look tile flooring throughout. We recently completed an additional top-to-bottom update with fresh paint throughout, refinished woodwork, new split A/C, and new furnishings, decor, lighting and California king mattress.

The result is a fresh, comfortable island retreat designed for an easy, relaxing stay in Poipu.

THE CONDO

Located in Building 9, Unit 44 is a private ground-floor end unit with extra windows, natural light and easy indoor-outdoor living. Enjoy Kauai's tradewinds when you want them, or close everything up and enjoy individually controlled split A/C in both the bedroom and living room.

Inside you'll find:

– Remodeled kitchen with granite countertops and everything you need for cooking and dining
– California king bed with new mattress
– Split A/C in both the bedroom and living room
– Remodeled bathroom with spacious walk-in tiled shower, showerhead and convenient handheld sprayer — especially nice for families with young children
– Ceramic wood-look tile flooring throughout
– Comfortable living area with queen sleeper sofa
– Fast WiFi and Smart TVs
– Convenient charging stations for your devices
– The ground-floor lanai opens directly onto the lawn and is surrounded by Kiahuna's beautiful tropical landscaping, creating a private, tucked-away setting for morning coffee, reading in the afternoon or relaxing at the end of the day.

BEACH DAYS MADE EASY

One of the best things about Unit 44 is how easy it is to head to the beach.

A dedicated beach-gear closet just outside our front door keeps your beach gear close at hand. We provide beach chairs, an umbrella, cooler, a boogie board, snorkel gear, floating lounge chairs, a large beach tote and dry-storage bag.

Kiahuna Beach is normally only about a two-minute walk across the lawn from Unit 44. During the current Hurricane Lowell recovery, direct beach access from Kiahuna's Great Lawn is temporarily closed due to storm-related erosion. The beach remains accessible from other nearby public access points.

Another nice convenience is easy access to two nearby foot-wash stations — one just off our lanai and another along the walkway near our front door — handy after a day at the beach.

KIAHUNA PLANTATION & POIPU

Kiahuna Plantation is one of Poipu's most loved beachfront properties, known for its expansive lawns, mature tropical landscaping and relaxed, low-rise island atmosphere. Rather than a high-rise resort, Kiahuna is spread across acres of beautiful open space leading down to the beach.

From Unit 44, you're also close to the walking paths connecting Kiahuna with Poipu Beach and the South Shore coastline.

Restaurants, coffee, shopping and several of Poipu's beaches are all within walking distance, making it easy to enjoy much of Poipu without getting in the car.

For guests traveling with an electric vehicle, an EV charging station is conveniently located just outside Building 9.

INCLUDED WITH YOUR STAY

Your stay includes complimentary access to the Poipu Beach Athletic Club, located just across the street from Kiahuna Plantation, featuring:

– Resort-style pool with waterslide and hot tub
– Tennis and pickleball courts
– Basketball and shuffleboard
– Fitness center and workout classes

Kiahuna Plantation also offers shared BBQ areas and free nearby parking.

On-site laundry facilities are temporarily unavailable while new washers and dryers are being installed.

NO SURPRISE CLEANING FEES

All required housekeeping services and the mandatory checkout cleaning are included in our rates.

There is no separate mandatory cleaning fee added to your reservation — an important difference when comparing the total cost of your stay.

A PLACE WE LOVE

Kiahuna has been special to us for years, and we've put tremendous thought and care into making Unit 44 a vacation retreat that feels fresh, comfortable and easy from the moment you arrive.

We hope you'll enjoy the relaxed rhythm of Kiahuna as much as we do — morning coffee on the lanai, days spent exploring the island, and a cool, comfortable retreat to return to at the end of the day.

TRAVEL INSURANCE

We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance to protect your trip against unexpected circumstances, including severe weather, illness, flight disruptions, or other unforeseen events.

This place is wonderful! We have stayed in many different units around Kiahuna plantation and we love the location of this one. There is a big open lawn out back for kids to run around and it’s so close to the beach! The beds are comfy and the unit itself is nice, we hope to come back next summer!!

Kiahuna Plantation is great overall and a steal of a value in Poipu. This unit is well located a few buildings from the beach, and near the large central tree and twin bridges. We had wonderful days at the beach, pool, hiking, ziplining, and taking a tubing adventure.

Kiahuna Plantation is a wonderful place to stay. Doreen was great with communication. The resort is quiet and so accessible to the beach, pool, and club house with many activities. Very child friendly too. This is our go to resort when in Kauai.

Lots of chickens. Sprinklers are loud in the early morning. Open air unit so it's a bit noisy.Great access to the beach, pool is off site but quite nice.

Loved our stay so much that this is our second time here! Perfect location to all the sights/hikes/beaches. Clean and well maintained property. We had the best time!

Overall, we had a nice stay. The beach was only a few minutes walk which was nice. There is no pool/hot tub on site. You can walk out of the complex across the street to access the Poipu Beach Athletic Club which has workout facilities, tennis courts, a pool and hot tub. There is also a restaurant and bar next to the pool area. Our unit itself was fine, the sleeper sofa and TV could have been updated. It was great that we had access to beach umbrellas, coolers, beach chairs, and some snorkel gear in the closet, so we didn't have to spend the time or money renting it. The kitchen was pretty well stocked and we appreciated being able to cook a few meals in.

This is a very nice unit with a garden view which is just a short walk from the main lawn and beachfront. It's nicely furnished, and had a comfortable king bed. The host is a good communicator.Only one drawback: The unit fronts onto the parking lot where there is a maintenance yard behind the fence across the road. We were awakened by the beep-beep-beep of a trash truck early in the morning, then the emptying of dumpsters. It's not a big deal, but you should be aware of it.

The condo was well stocked, clean, and offered many extra amenities (snorkel gear, ice chest, etc). The location was very close to the ocean, which was great! Our only complaint was that it could be quite noisy in the early morning with garbage trucks and service vehicles driving around at 7am. Overall, we found the condo to be a fantastic find for the price and location!

Easy check-in, staff is very friendly. The condo was stocked with kitchen/restroom necessities/toiletry. On cleaning day housekeeping just left the towels at the door, I thought they were gna also replace the sheets and throw the trash besides that awesome experience. I would definitely stay again. The property owner was very responsive. We had issues with the tv and they sent someone to fix it first thing in the morning.

Great place, great location. Really enjoyed the athletic club access the street. Easy to walk down to the beach. My only complaint would be they didn’t have hand soap, body wash, or any of the regular amenities that you would have at any other place you would stay, so come prepared for that. Also, extra kitchen goods were not there. We had to go buy salt and coffee because there is absolutely nothing in the cupboards. But the place was great overall!

There was scaffolding set up all around our unit, because the building was being painted. But we were NOT made aware of this ahead of time, otherwise we would have booked different accommodations. Men arrived outside our bedroom window every morning before we awoke, stood on ladders looking into our bedroom, and moved all the furniture off our patio. It was an invasion of privacy and not at all relaxing. We would not have chosen this spot if we had known that would be the case.



April 2025
We had a very nice stay at this property, close to the beach, nice grounds, comfortable master bedroom bed, no so comfortable couch for the kids, mattress makes noise. It was nice to have beach chairs and boogie boards available. Would come back!

This is our 20th stay at Kiahuna plantation, and we love this unit, it provides privacy and has everything you need for a relaxing holiday. We also like the location of this unit for its proximity to the laundry and walking path to Marriot for a swim. We also enjoyed the shaded garden area after a day out in the sun.

Great location. Ground floor goes on direction to one beach, exit other side to short cut another beach! Really worked well for our family of four.

Insider tips

Good to know at Kiahuna Plantation

  • Around sunset at Poipu Beach, green sea turtles come ashore to rest on the sand and monk seals sometimes haul out, while the sheltered cove gives little kids gentle water to splash in.
  • For an easy sunset ritual, stroll across the great lawn to the free lounge chairs facing the beach; the open grass doubles as a play space for kids during the day.
  • Across the street at Poipu Athletic Club, kids head for the pool's small waterslide, and there are tennis, pickleball and basketball courts plus gym and yoga classes for everyone else.
