Plantation Hale Suites

8/10 Good

"This is my "go to" property when booking on Kaua'i. I travel a lot for work and I like that it feels more like home than in a resort room. Parking is right outside the units which is a huge plus! Remember to check your email for your room code information & instructions to avoid showing up at the office necessarily."

"Nice sized condo for 2 people. Very nice renovation. The view was great. The bed was comfortable. Good sized closet in bedroom. Condo was close by to restaurants, grocery store, brewery and shopping. The host sent efficient instructions on how to get there and the check in process.

Stunning Oceanfront Kauai Condo for Two!

10/10 Excellent

"My 10 year-old and I stayed at the condo for 9 days. The location was perfect for us as we had activities on the north and south shore, as well as Lihue and Kapaa. There are several places within walking distance to eat and shop. The property was very quiet and often times we were the only people in the swimming pool, which was nice. The pool was always the perfect temperature and very clean. We found the bed to be comfortable and the view amazing. We would definitely stay here again."

"Oceanfront Condo: Coconut Tree & Ocean Views, Whale Watching, Paddlers, and Surfers at Wailua Bay!"

10/10 Excellent

"This was the perfect place for us to stay for our first visit to the island! Loved the central location to the north and south parts of the island. They also have beach chairs and snorkeling gear for your use as well. The host was amazing!! Our trip was for my wife’s birthday and I messaged the host so that I could arrange surprise flowers and wine for my wife. They executed the plan perfectly! They really went above and beyond for us and it was evident that they truly did care about our experience. I highly recommend this listing as well as anything that Premier Kauai manages! Thank you so much for allowing us to stay here "
