About this property

New open concept Garden Delux Kiahuna, Partial Ocean View Retreat!

Celebrate Aloha and the tradition of Hawaii with a stay at our slice of paradise. You'll take a step back in time to a simple more relaxing period when you arrive at Kiahuna Plantation on the sunny south shore of the beautiful island of Kauai, 'The Garden Island'. Kiahuna Plantation is the only beachfront condominium resort in Poipu. Leisurely stroll the 35 lush acres and enjoy the feeling of Traditional Hawaii as you walk through gardens rich with tropical flowers, plants and beautiful trees, past ponds to a wonderful beach. Make a quick stop at the beach hut to pick up complimentary beach towels and chairs and enjoy the well-manicured lawn or relax on Kiahuna's sandy beach. Swim, surf or snorkel with brightly colored tropical fish and sea turtles or take a short walk to Poipu Beach, one of the world's best beaches as rated by Travel Magazines, TV and many guidebooks. Often when you arrive you can see Hawaiian monk seals sunning on the beach or playing in the crystal clear water. Large sea turtles are almost daily visitors and offshore whales and dolphins can often be seen! For the more adventurous, the highly professional and gracious Castle Resort staff is available on site, and can help make arrangements for more extensive adventures such as kayaking, luaus, helicopter tours, horseback riding, sunset sailing and more. Of course, no visit to Kauai is complete without a tour of the Waimea canyon and the Na'pali coast, each about an hour's drive from the condo. Take a little longer drive and head north to Kapaa, the Kilauea Lighthouse, some secluded beaches, Princeville, Hanalei (enjoy a cocktail at Tahati Nui- George Clooney did). Drive further north to find more beaches, caves and challenging hiking trails. Superb restaurants and a shopping village are a short walk from the condo and the new Kukuiula center is a longer walk or a very short drive for shopping and dining. Championship golf courses and beautiful hiking trails are nearby. Need a workout, prefer a pool to sand or wanting a few sets of tennis?

The Poipu Beach Athletic Club, pool and tennis and pickle ball courts are readily available and complimentary to our guests. Our home away from home is centrally located on the plantation. The beach, check in desk, Plantation Restaurant, laundry facilities, BBQ's, and parking are all easily accessible. Our unit is #227 in building #35. It is a top floor, one bedroom condo, with a lofted ceiling. The bedroom has a king size bed and the living room couch converts to a comfortable queen size bed. The condo sleeps four people with extra sleeping arrangements upon request. The large private lanai looks over gardens and mature trees with a partial ocean view. There are two lounge chairs plus a table with seating for four. It is the perfect place for a morning Kauai coffee, evening cocktail, glass of wine and a relaxing dinner. The recently remodeled bathroom has a full shower and bathtub. Two new ceiling fans, carpeting, a completely remodeled kitchen with cherry wood cabinets, granite counter tops, and stainless steel appliances was completed in October 2012. We are striving to create a clean, comfortable, and welcoming home for our guests to enjoy.
Please try to make your reservations as early as possible, as these units are very desirable and fill up quickly. Remember to check our calendar for availability before contacting us. We hope our condo and Kiahuna, in the best location and with the best weather in Kauai, become for you what it has been for us: a very special place.

Loved this Condo!

We loved our stay at your place. The condo was everything we were looking for. Walking distance to the beach, shops and restaurants. The open kitchen and high ceilings gave it a great open feel. There were beach chairs, boogie boards, coolers, and snorkels to use - it was such a nice added bonus You were so kind to leave us an amazing welcome gift and note when we arrived. Such a thoughtful added touch We have been coming to the Kiahuna for 30 years and your place did not disappoint. One of our favorites by far Thank you again for adding to an already wonderful vacation John and Wendy Teets

Customer

The unit was well located with a very short walk to the beach and/or fitness center. The partial ocean view from the deck added to the pleasure to every early morning cup of coffee. The unit was well furnished and the kitchen, while small, was very functional and more than adequate for short-term residents. Be warned, the unit is on the third floor so you will be climbing some stairs, but it's worth it!

Beautiful Unit and Location

We loved our stay in this condo. We have stayed in several other units at Kiahuna Plantation and this was definitely our favorite. We had everything we needed and more for cooking and going to the beach. Kevin and Kate provided a lot of useful information and were a pleasure to deal with. We did try to rebook this condo for next year, but the unit was already reserved for our dates. Coming back to this unit after a beautiful day hiking or snorkeling was really very comforting. We stayed four weeks and were very sad to leave. Laura, Igor & Rachael

Great place with all the extras

This condo was just able described; the patio chairs and outside table made it so complete. It is located closer to the road, but no road noise was heard. The closet had all sorts or fins/snorkels, beach chairs, umbrella, hiking sticks and coolers. This made going to the beach a breeze. It was a little warm, but there were multiple fans and Hawaii is warm 😉 It is managed by a company with 24 hour desk assistance, which made it convenient like a hotel. Loved it! Loved Kauai 😍

Excellent property, kind manager

We stayed in this condo last year and were so pleased we returned this year. We were happy to find this unit as comfortable as before. In our experience of several years, the weather in the area of Kiahuna Plantation can't be beat, with least likelihood of rain in Kauai. The Kiahuna Plantation surroundings are beautiful; and it is a pleasant, short stroll to the excellent beach. Restaurants and shops are also nearby in the Poipu shopping center. This condo is very clean, modern and well stocked with all amenities, including articles for use at the beach. The manager was most courteous and kind. We would strongly recommend this property to friends and hope to return ourselves. Dot and Tom

Kauai's little slice of heaven

We had a wonderful time in Kauai! Spent many hours on the patio enjoying the peak-a-boo view of the ocean, the breeze, the birds and the roosters. :-) (BTW, the roosters think morning is at 4:15am, so bring your earplugs.) Lots of beach toys are available in the closet. So many great restaurants within walking distance. Advice, even if you use Open Table for reservations, if they show no availabiity, try calling. The Eating House, for example, showed no reservations available, but we called and got in and saw severable empty tables. Only drawback FOR US was the 3rd floor climb. We love being upstairs for the view, but we are pushing 73 years old and may have to revise our own expectations of our abilities. Aloha.

Updated and extremely clean condo unit in best location! Your home away from home.

First, thank you to Kevin and Kate for allowing my wife and I to celebrate her birthday here in Kauai at their condo. It was indeed memorable and in the spirit of Kauai in its own way, relaxing. We have stayed in the Poipu area 5 times now in 14 years and we were excited to return to this condo for 3 weeks for the second time. That should speak for itself, but it's easy to gush about all the pluses and amenities of staying at this unit on Poipu Beach. My wife loves the partial ocean view and the great location of the condo. Kiahuna Plantation is the only condo complex on Poipu Beach. Maybe the best way to sum it up is both my wife and I feel like we are at home in this unit. As I said to the on-site realtor, I could tell Kevin and Kate gave LOTS of thought and time into the location of their purchase. She agreed. It's almost perfect. You will enjoy the short stroll to the beach in front of Kiahuna Plantation (maybe 2-3 blocks) or the short five minute drive to world class Poipu Beach Park, where you will see Monk Seals almost daily and sometimes turtles. Lots of snorkeling along Poipu Beach with lots of colorful fish to see. You are easily able to walk along the beach/walkway from Kiahuna Plantation to Poipu Beach Park. Sunsets from Poipu Beach Park can be amazing, while enjoying a shave ice from Brenneckes (across the street). The Tommy Bahama beach chairs found in the closet are very useful at the beach, along with whatever else one may need at the beach for a fun filled day. The bed is very comfortable. Since there is only one other unit past this condo your privacy compared to most units is automatically protected. I enjoyed sitting out on the lanai early in the morning, listening to the numerous birds, and looking over the complex with all of its immense tropical foliage and trees. It's a short two block walk to the Poipu Village Shopping Center. Other than the usual, such as Keokis Paradise Restaurant, I would recommend Anuenue Café for breakfast and try their acai bowl. We can't say enough good about the Garden Island Grill in Old Koloa Town (where Tom Cats use to be). Really good burgers, shrimp baskets, drinks, etc. My wife always loves going to Island Candle in Old Koloa Town for soaps, lotions and candles. Perfect gifts for others. We also had a really great time renting beach cruiser bikes from Kauai Cycle, riding along the bike path on the east side along the beach. Wonderful life long memories. We'll be back to this unit!

We were very happy with our unit: very clean, nice decor, very comfortable bed with nice bedding, heavy duty plantations shutters that allowed nice cross breezes. The updated kitchen was well-stocked with essentials, the bath was updated with a tiled shower and beautiful separate vanity area. This is a third floor unit, but with it comes a nice cathedral ceiling. The grounds of this development were absolutely beautiful with mature and well maintained vegetation. I did not see anything comparable in neighboring developments. The building has easy to access the nearest road, as we were in and out quite a bit. There is a very nice beach a short walk from the building which is great for swimming and snorkeling. Snorkeling gear is inside the unit. You can hear the ocean from the lanai, yet it feels very private from the other buildings. Towel service is provided near the beach and there is a beautiful lawn facing the beach with lounges to watch the sunset. Very clean, updated laundry facilities are within the development. Many shopping and dining choices near by, as well as Poipu State Beach where you can swim, snorkel, and observe Green Sea Turtles and sometimes Monk Seals. Our stay here was very satisfying.

Best vacation EVER

Ok....I say that on most vacations, but really, this place is fantastic and I would 100% stay here again. It is just so convenient! It is about midway whether you want to go westward to the Waimea canyon area or north to the beautiful beaches. But honestly, you can just stay around Poipu, where this condo is located. It is perfect for literally walking across the street to Poipu village shopping (for shopping, cafes, restaurants) or the little coffee shop (Little Fish). There is beach access for this resort and it is a great place to watch for whales as well as a beautiful sunset every night. Walk along the beach to Poipu beach to see the sea turtles, catch a monk seal napping and watch the whales jumping and blowing. It's really amazing!! The condo itself is quiet and clean. Note that there is NO air conditioning here but there are lots of fans blowing and we were extremely comfortable the whole time. Also, it is on the 3rd (top) level so you will walk up 33 steps to get there. We loved it!!

Beautiful Resort

As this was our first time at Kauai we didn’t know what to expect. The resort is beautiful and the unit had everything that was needed for a great week. A special shout out to the Castle staff. When we arrived I inadvertently dropped my passport in the taxi and didn’t realize it until the next morning. The Castle reception tracked down the taxi company and driver and all was returned to us by noon. A potential vacation disaster was averted and many thanks. A couple of suggestions. As we arrived late by taxi the driver did not know the complex at all and it took close to an hour to find the unit, maybe a map in the welcome package for late strivers. We were worried about marking the glass tables so some coasters or placemats may be a suggestion. Thanks for a great week.

Great unit. Great hosts!

The property on the Kiahuna Plantation is excellent. The unit was very clean and well stocked with all of the kitchen utensils you need. There were plenty of beach chairs, toys, and snorkeling gear for the whole family. Like others have mentioned, the unit is close to where some of the roosters like to hang out, but it’s Kauai….there are literally roosters everywhere. You can easily sleep through their crowing. The hosts are very kind and communicative. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone.

About the host

Hosted by Kevin & Kate Egan

Host profile image
Over the years we have been lucky to have visited the four major islands and enjoyed the special qualities of each. We fell in love with Kauai! For over 30 years we have spent vacations on Kauai. We have stayed on the north shore, on the east shore and in the south in the Poipu area. Although we live in a beach community in Southern California, we look forward to our trips to Kauai. It takes us away from the frantic Southern California pace, allows us to relax, reconnect with nature and rejuvenate our bodies and aloha spirit. We have been fascinated by the Kiahuna Plantation's old world feeling of traditional Hawaii and fell in love with it's location and the beach. The Poipu area, although it has many visitors, also maintains a wonderful local feeling and aloha spirit. As a family we enjoy the beaches, especially the snorkeling around the Kiahuna Plantation and Poipu beach and as an avid long time bodysurfer, I enjoy Shipwreck's beach which is a short distance from our condo.

Why they chose this property

We became familiar with Kauai, Poipu and Kiahuna over the years and the island area around the plantation became part of us. We have a special feeling when we are there. For years we have looked for just the right property to fully enjoy all the Island has to offer. We fell in love with Kiahuna and this condo because of Kiahuna's location on Kauai and the condo's location within Kiahuna Plantation. As an added bonus, the former owner has lovingly and tastefully remodeled and upgraded in exactly the way we would have done it ourselves!
We read the great reviews from guests that had stayed in this condo recently - many 5 star reviews!!!
What others have said about Kiahuna #227 and their stay-
'I've been to Kauai three times, and this condo experience surpassed all others. Everything was in tip top shape and very up-to-date.....
The grounds surrounding the condo are beautifully landscaped. We loved sitting on the lanai in the morning to enjoy our breakfast and the view.....
We had an absolutely wonderful time at the lovely Kiahuna Condos. Everyone there were so nice and accommodating ......and so friendly. The condo itself was wonderfully decorated and very functional....
It was everything as advertised and more. The Kiahuna grounds are gorgeous, the beach was easy access and beautiful, and the little shopping center across the street met all our needs.....
The view from the lanai was so serene and peaceful....
We loved the decor and the kitchen was a dream to cook in. We loved the view from our lanai, the tiki torches at night, the early morning rain showers and the sounds and scents of tropical paradise.....
The location is ideal - a 2 minute stroll to the ocean and there is a fantastic restaurant on the property. We will be back!
The apartment is airy, lovely, light, and quiet. We spent much of our time on the lanai, where we were visited daily by local and beautiful tropical birds. We were six minutes walk from my favorite beach for snorkeling.....'

What makes this property unique

Our vacation home is centrally located within the plantation. It is surrounded by lovely tropical trees and gardens. It is a short walk one way to the beach and the other way to Castle Resort's exclusive Poipu Beach Athletic Club, tennis & pickle ball courts, and swimming pool. It is also an easy walk to the on-site highly rated Plantation Gardens Restaurant and to Whaler's Village just across Poipu road. It is an upper level unit with tropical breezes and a lanai to take in the garden and ocean views. You might catch a whale spouting while eating on the lanai and watching the sunset over the blue Pacific. It is truly one of life's great pleasures!
