Remodeled Vintage Surf Haven, A/C, Free Tennis & Pool, 3 min walk to beach

NEWLY REMODELED Vintage Surf Haven. Go enjoy the island, then come relax in this 2 bd/ 2 ba condo with professionally designed touches throughout.

Kiahuna Plantation is a low density beach front Condo Resort. The use of the pool, tennis, pickle-ball, and the amazing Fitness Center at the POIPU BEACH ATHLETIC CLUB are also FREE for our guests.

Nestled within 35 acres of lush lawns and tropical gardens are plantation style buildings, no higher than a palm tree. Our unit is open and airy due to large sliding doors and windows with louvers that open to catch the cooling Hawaiian trade winds.

The master bedroom on the first floor features a King Bed, 2 night stands, a separate dressing room and full bath with tub. The master bath has been completely renovated. A dresser - with a smart TV on top - and 2 large closets are provided for your clothes including a safe for valuables. A 6' sliding door leads to your private lanai with 2 lounges and 2 wood chairs where you can relax with a good book and listen to the birds singing.

Our 2nd bedroom has 2 bunk beds, a large dresser and a closet. The guest bathroom, which has been totally renovated is off the hall close in between both bedrooms.

On the 2nd floor, the living/dining room (great room) is spacious (20' x 24'). The full-service kitchen was recently updated with new cabinets, a brand new vintage style stove and refrigerator, and a counter top microwave. There is also an electric coffee machine, a Ninja blender to make your tropical drinks & smoothies, and all the dishes, pots and utensils you need. Next to the kitchen is the dining seating for 6.

A new wall-mounted 58” Smart TV is sits above a console table. Or take a game right off the wall and enjoy the game corner. There is plenty of space for everyone to spread out between the main level and the spacious lanais.

Your private balcony is right outside the living room, where you can enjoy eating a quiet, peaceful meal while enjoying the view of the 120 year old banyan tree. There is ample room for 6 people to eat, using the round table & chairs on the balcony. There are also 2 rocking, swiveling chairs to relax in.

A new barbeque below our property will help you get quick, tasty meals on your table. Even a hamburger or hot dog tastes better from the BBQ at the Kiahuna Plantation than at home. Mango and banana trees right in front of the condo.

However, if you prefer eating out and you don't want to drive, here are some of your choices: Across the street at the Kiahuna Shopping Center are several places to eat. A favorite with guests is Keoki's Paradise with open air dining. Across from Keoki's, a new restaurant has opened that specialize in pizza and Italian food. Or you can eat at The Bangkok Happy Bowl, located on the NE corner of the Poipu Shopping Village. Next to them is a stand, where you can enjoy eating a Puka Dog with a choice of unusual toppings.

One of the newest additions for fine dining is a mile west of our complex at the Kukui'ula Village in Koloa, Merriman's. If you like Mexican food, the Tortilla Republic Grill & Margarita Bar is a tasty place to try.

Around the Kiahuna Plantation property you find a multitude of beautiful blossoms and colorful foliage. Take in the aromas of sweet plumerias, orchids and hibiscus. Watch the palms gracefully swaying in the breeze, and find flowers, trees and shrubs you may have never seen before.

The Moir Cactus Garden is another spectacular attraction on the resort grounds, created almost 80 years ago. You'll discover that this Condo Resort is located on an immaculately-kept tropical paradise.

A short walk from our condo will lead you to the best swimming beach on Kauai. Feel the warm white sand sift through your toes as the Hawaiian sun embraces you. Gaze at the brilliant blue waters of Poipu Beach and watch as the sunrays dance on the waves. You can go surfing, boogie-boarding, snorkeling, sunbathing, or reading a good book under a palm tree in the vast lawn facing the ocean. Free towels and beach chairs are provided at the Beach Hut for our guests. Surf-and boogie boards are available for rental. Surf lessons are also available.

The famous Poipu Bay Golf Course, former site of the annual Grand Slam tournament, is 2 miles east, next to the Grand Hyatt Hotel. The Kiahuna Golf Course is just north of our property. Other great golf courses are nearby.

Many other fun things, like horseback riding, scuba diving, windsurfing, etc. are available close-by. If you like hiking, we can help you find the perfect trails. You can reach the Waimea Canyon in about one hour by car. Mark Twain called it 'The Grand Canyon of the Pacific.'

As you can see, there is simply no shortage of things to do, including helicopter rides around this amazing island. Make your plans today and we'll help you have the greatest vacation of your lifetime.

New Legislation. Starting July 1, 2012, a new law HB 2078 regarding rental properties has been in effect. This law requires out of-state owners, like us, to post our local agent, Roy Thompson, 808-742-2200, and our Hawaiian GE and Transient Accommodations Registration No. TA-149-153-7920-01.

Immaculate condo!

We have stay at the Kiahuna yearly since 2010. This condo is by far the nicest one we have ever stayed in. We will definitely be back! The entire condo has been remodeled. The "retro" style kitchen is very functional and charming. We really appreciated the air conditioning on both floors, especially since the weather was a bit warmer on this trip. The decor was very simple and didn't feel cluttered like a lot of the condos at this resort feel. I was blown away by how nice this condo is compared with the many others we have stayed in.

Stunningly beautiful! Poipu is the most gorgeous beach the Iland has. No reason to go anywhere else. The property is so beautiful & walking around there’s so many beautiful things to see. The pool was a hot spot for the younger teenagers! Everything is within walking distance which is really nice.

AMAZING

My family and I had so much fun staying at the Kiahuna Plantation. It was the perfect location on the South Shore. We got to see Sea Turtles basking on the beach, a monk seal sunning itself and so much fish on Poipu beach. An added bonus, the Koala Plantation Days celebration was also happening during our stay, which added some neat free attractions. Thank you for your accommodations, we look forward to our return.

We had a great stay at this gorgeous ocean front complex. The condo itself was as true to the listing description. No frills but a comfortable stay and a good value compared to other condo’s listed in the same complex. The owners are very nice and even provided a gift card to the fun restaurant across the street. Very nice owners.

This was our first time to Kauai and it is definitely now our favorite island. The condo was perfect for our family of 5. The short walk to the beach or to poipu Village was convenient. Our kids loved searching for geckos outside the condo. It was quiet and private even during spring break time. We’d love to stay here again in the future.

The weekend was too short!

After visiting my son and daughter-in-law in Maui for a week with my girlfriend and her husband, we all flew to Kauai for the weekend. I only wish we had more time. The condo was decorated beautifully and the great room area was very spacious. The pool, hot tub and gym across the street exceeded our expectations. I also loved having restaurants and shopping so close. We enjoyed a happy hour each evening on Poipu Beach watching the sea turtles sleep and also got to see an endangered Hawaiian Monk Seal resting on the beach as well. Great location!
