    Love the Plantation Resort

    The Plantation Resort was wonderful, I highly recommend it. It was clean, close to the beach and very relaxing. The grounds are beautiful and the staff was great. I would love to go back.

    Not an Accurate Description online!

    Please Update Your Website !! The location is nice enough- really clean and lush and beautiful. The listing on Priceline is incorrect! There is no swimming pool on site. The pool is across the street in an Athletic club. There is no restaurant. It’s been closed since COVID. 5 years!! The add on cleaning fee of $250 + tax= $377 is outrageous. My booking on Priceline said the price included all Taxes and fees. The resort charged an additional $377. Non-negotiable. Also. No AC in our unit.

    Kiahuna Pantation September 3 - 12, 2025

    We had the pleasure of staying here for the first time recently and our VRBO host was amazing. Darin came to our aid and found us another unit for 3 nights after we canceled our trip to the North Shore because hurricane Kiko was on approach. Number 50 was rented through VRBO and then we move to another unit number 172. He owns both units and they were amazing !! Everything you could think of was supplied and we are already planning our trip back to stay in either unit. My wife and I are seasoned Hawaii travelers and we would highly recommend both of these units.

    cute unit with nice features, but unclean and moldy AC unit

    The unit we stayed in (Kauai Kiahuna Plantation #425) was nice and accommodating, it has all the appliances and features you could need, everything worked BUT the reason we booked this unit was for the AC. Unfortunately the AC unit was moldy, the interior of the unit and fins had visible mold on it, and it smelled musty. We used it for a while until we got sick, and only noticed the mold as we were checking out! There's also no windows, only wood slats, so be aware you will hear all the maintenance, roosters, and crying babies in the area very clearly.

    Solid 3/5 stars

    This is a decent resort that is in a great location - room 82 royal garden 1 bedroom. It was on the second story and there are no elevators. The room itself is a complitaion of new (appliances, countertops, repainted lanai) and old (dressers, furniture, cooking utensils/pans). There were some minor issues such as a broken stop function on the coffee maker, some of the outlets didn't work - same for switches, the glass on the furniture on the lanai was cracked and some of the wooden outdoor shades didn't open or close. These issues were more annoyances, but I wanted to mention them. The room was always warm to hot. No AC so I had 3 fans (provided) on at all times. Early in the mornings and late evening there'd be a nice breeze but it was around 70-85 degrees at all times in the unit. It's an adjustfment for those that are used to using the AC. The location was terrific and close to the shopping mall across the street. If you need groceries you can head to Safeway or Costco in Lihue - 25 min drive or Big Save or Longs Drug store (basically a CVS) -10 min drive. The beach is very close! If you go through the Marriot next door you can easily arrive at Poipu Beach within a 10 minute walk to snorkel, observe sea turltes on the beach/water and be lucky enough to see a sea lion. As others have mentioend, the "checkout and cleaning fee" is absurd and cleaning is not daily - it depends on how long you stay. This is a solid 3 star resort.
