Beautiful location
Kiahuna Plantation has beautiful grounds and is situated on the south shores prettiest beach. Several excellent restaurants are close by making this an ideal place to spend time in the Poipu area.

Kiahuna Plantation for our 30th wedding anniversary
They had a wonderful time in building 20 apartment 138. Crystal was wonderful to work with at the office. We enjoyed the plantation garden’s restaurant a couple times over our stay as well. Everything is so beautifully maintain so hats off to the entire staff.
JP says
Mahalo Stuart for the 5-star review and your kinds words. See you on Kauai again soon. A hui hou.

Beautiful views, great location, could use a little love
Location was perfect for us—great home base to see the island, and awesome beach to come back to at the end of the day. We snorkeled at some of the “best” locations on the Big Island and Kauai, and actually saw more diversity (fish and sea turtles!) at Kiahuna Beach. Kitchen was well-stocked for cooking and all of our needs (although some pans aren’t in the best shape), and unit was stocked with beach supplies too. We loved that they had coffee and tea in the room for us too.
Our only issues were really with maintenance and cleanliness. The unit could really use a little love—broken shutters, screens that don’t fit properly, trim is dinged up in a lot of places. Also discovered things over our week’s stay that could have been a bit cleaner, including a very sandy bathroom floor upon arrival, mold in areas of the tub, and a “clean” badly stained bath towel. Should I have called them to report the problems? Sure, and they probably would have sent someone to clean right away. Did I want to spend my vacation calling them each day we discovered something? Nope. Would we stay here again? Absolutely. Notified them upon check-out about the issues instead. Parrish staff was very friendly when checking in and out, and process was super easy.
Another thing to mention is that there’s no major privacy in terms of sound in these units, given that the windows are just screens and shutters. So, babies crying at all hours, birds chirping, people talking/coughing, and sprinklers running in the early morning may wake you if you’re a light sleeper.
If you plan to do a luau while you’re staying here, we’d highly recommend Aulii at the Sheraton next door. Great food and show, and walking distance home, especially if enjoying the open bar.
Pictures are of the sunset from Kiahuna Beach and the view from the lanai. Great place to watch the sun rise and set.
JP says
Aloha Bobcatmcgee, Mahalo for taking the time to post review. We apologize for any oversight on cleaning and maintenance. We are committed to ensure you have a great stay and would have rectified anything you needed at a time when it was most convenient to you. We also sorry you did not take the time to call us while you were staying in the unit about any deficiencies, but glad to hear you would stay with us again. Next time, we do ask that you please call if there is anything we missed or that needs attention. That is why we have staff on duty seven days a week. We will take your notes here and ensure all is rectified immediately. In the end, we are so glad you got to enjoy Kauai and look forward to hosting you again soon. Mahalo.

Fantastic View From Deck
This was my second visit to Kauai. Both times we stayed at the Kiahuna Plantation Resort located in Poipu. Unit 138 more than met our needs. We visited in early December. The weather was perfect. The partial view of the ocean and beach from the second floor deck, viewed across a lush lawn landscaped with flowers, palm trees, shrubs, etc., was incredibly beautiful. We loved the grounds and the short walk to the beach from our condo. So, I’d say that the view makes this a very desirable location. The interior of the condo was clean and modern although not trendy and brand new. A great value for the money! The resort is older but if you appreciate mature trees, lawns, and gardens, and relative quite, this is your place. Very well manicured. I would definitely go back to the same unit in the future. Layne and Allison.
Theresa B. says
Perfect place to stay
I enjoyed everything about this place from the view to the comfort of the bed! I will definitely stay here again 🙂
Paul J. says
Comfortable condo with great view
We enjoyed our stay at Kiahuna 138. The condo has a lovely view over the great lawn toward the beach and provided everything we needed for our stay in Poipu. The furnishings are tasteful, although the carpet shows considerable wear and the bathroom could benefit from an upgrade. As with all units at Kiahuna, sound travels through the walls so noisy neighbors can be annoying. But the grounds and beach at Kiahuna are the best in the Poipu area so we definitely will return!
JP says
Aloha Paul, Mahalo for your 5-star review. Actually, the carpet has since been replaced and we are working with the owner on other improvements and will pass on your comments. it had been ordered and I am sorry it was not here in time for your stay. We do agree as well, Kiahuna is truly a special place. We look forward to hosting you again soon.
Elizabeth S. says
Huge beautiful property
The unit had everything we needed. The kitchen was great to prepare breakfast every day. Plenty of grills to use outside. You can walk to the beach. And in the closet they had backpack beach chairs and a small cooler. We used those daily. Walking distance from several restaurants and a coffee shop across the street as well. I highly recommend this property for vaca and would definitely stay here again!
Casey O. says
Effortless
Great professional setup. Clean, nicely decorated, beautiful landscaping, partial ocean view
Linda H. says
It was unfortunate
We love the location of this property, but unfortunately we won’t return until there is a new bed, new or no carpet, and the sofa is replaced. Honestly, we are not hard to please. We don’t require updated spaces, but comfort is high on our list. The bed was so bad (you could even visually see a big dip on one side) that we pulled out the sleeper sofa for one of us. It, as well, was equally uncomfortable, so we put the mattress on the floor which took care of the support issue but was way too close to the unpleasant carpet. As for the sofa, we put a towel on it before sitting. A previous review stated that the owner had gotten some new furnishings so we were encouraged, but these new pieces appeared to be tables and decorative pillows. The kitchen did have some updates which gave the unit a first good impression, but short lived. We would return to your unit in the future, and even pay more, if some important changes were made which would insure the basic comfort of your guests. Linda and Ron from Colorado
JP says
Aloha Linda, We are sorry you felt you stay was bad to warrant a 1 star. The owner has been investing in the unit and there is a lot that is new (more than just pillows). The sofa being one…just over a year…so I am not sure why you felt it was “grungy”, but we will check it out. The sofa mattress is new as well, but sleeper sofas are never really that comfortable. We will check the bedroom mattress as well and if it warrants, replacement we will ask the owner. The carpet is older, but is cleaned regularly. For your next stay, I suggest you pick a unit that is rated a “Premier” as they are more upgraded and newer (and priced accordingly) which may be more of a fit for your needs. Mahalo.
Andrew D. says
Great location, views, but unit needs updating
we stayed from 20 Dec 2017- 1Jan 2018 and really enjoyed our second visit to Kiahuna Plantation. We had a nice view of the ocean, despite being some distance away. The unit is dated and needs updating, carpets and rugs replaced, bath updated. Apart from that, the unit is in a great location at Kiahuna, much better than the units located behind the building, and up the hill. A 2 story unit was fairly quiet despite craze of the holiday season beach crowd. Plenty of parking is very close by and laundry facilities are a 5 minute walk. The kitchen equipment/pans is very basic, and not at all good quality. Overall on a value for money basis, we expected a better, more updated unit. Kiahuna was built in the 1970s/80s and so is dated, but the owners who care should be putting money back into these units periodically. This unit has had little/no work done on it in a long time based on our assessment.
JP says
Mahalo for your review and we are glad you enjoyed Kiahuna for your holiday stay. Please note all units are described, photographed and rated and priced accordingly. You selected this unit which is clearly labeled a “Deluxe” which is defined as “Well-maintained properties that have been updated (typically within the past ten years).”. We feel this clearly describes this unit and is priced accordingly. In the future, please seek out units with a “Premier” or “Premier Plus” rating as they have been updated. Please note that fact the owner has been making significant improvements to this property and continues to do so. Mahalo.
Tiffany M. says
Beautiful views
We just got back from a wonderful stay at the unit. It was a perfect location far enough in from the road so at night it was quiet and you weren’t woken up by roosters and road noise. Loved sitting on the lanai every morning eating breakfast. Nicely decorated and very clean but bathroom and kitchen could use some updating. Bed was very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.
Marie R. says
The condo was a perfect location but could use some updating... not to worry, we will be back!
Perfect! Absolutely beautiful grounds and friendly caretakers!
JP says
Mahalo Marie and we look forward to hosting you again. This owner has been updating a lot this year so I am sure you will continue to see improvements. See you again soon.
ca says
It was the perfect place to stay at for my first vacation with m
We stayed in unit 138. Service was great! Extremely nice and helpful. The home was perfect location and clean, well stocked with needs. The view was incredible, our least favorite was that the bedroom is in the front when you walk in and our neighbors who had kids were extremely loud some nights.
Colleen says
Great
We were here last year and liked it – it hasn’t changed since then – love the location. We are committed recyclers and I wish there was better recycling all over the island…especially organics!
JP says
Mahalo for the note Colleen. We could not agree more on the recycling!
R.C. says
Organized & Professional
Old, however well appointed and great layout. Garden and surrounds were the best we have seen in the world. Beast beach on the island. Love the sudden rainstorms.
Denver CO says
A comfortable, convenient and well appointed condo
had a great time in Kauai, and particularly found this condo great. We looked out at the ocean from the deck, the lawns/gardens were beautiful, the beach was wonderful, it all worked great. We spent a lot of time and money on excursions this vacation, so glad we didn’t do the Hyatt – which is very expensive.

Kiahuna Plantation #138 Disappointing
We were very excited to try KP and be close to the beach and the shopping center this trip. We usually stay at Whalers Cove but decided to try something different. What a mistake. I have always had a good experience renting with Parrish, but this unit was not what I would call “deluxe.” I also did not appreciate listening to the condo next door getting remodeled 9am-5pm our ENTIRE stay. We had to listen to nail guns, table saws and the tile cutter, a real ear splitter. The carpet in the living dining room was FILTHY. The sofa had stains on it that I don’t even want to think about what they were from, EWWWWW. We were afraid to use the patio table on the lanai because the glass was cracking all around the edges and was sagging in the middle. The whole patio set up was gross and old. Such a shame because the view to the water is lovely and the grounds are really pretty. The way this unit sits offered hardly any airflow, so we were pretty miserable in the evenings and found it hard to sleep (and the mattress was squishy and saggy). The fans do not do the job. Maybe it’s better other months. I had written my concerns about this unit on our check out survey. It’s been a month since we left and I have never received a response, which is very disappointing. I expected more from Parrish. This unit would be so much better if they cleaned the furniture and carpets periodically (or put in tile), and replaced all the patio furniture. We won’t be back to #138.
Seattle says
great value, relaxing atmosphere
We really loved our stay. The grounds were beautiful, very relaxing. Our condo was very comfortable. We liked the location – very close to the beach, but not too close. Only suggestions would be more comfortable lounge chairs on the deck! Thanks for a great trip!
British Columbia says
First time to Kiahuna and #138 but it won't be the last!
We had a wonderfully relaxing stay in a lovely condo that felt like home. The location was perfect with some view of the ocean and a couple minutes walk to the large, sandy beach or shady lawn area in front of the beach. The condo’s location was a convenient walking distance to the little shopping plaza across the road with several great restaurants. We also enjoyed the two restaurants located within the Kiahuna Plantation. It was so nice not to have to drive. Parish Collection were very prompt and efficient in attending to all our needs. We look forward to returning to Kiahuna Plantation and #138.

Great Experience
The reservation system, the value and the location just could not be beat. A great, but to short, holiday.
California says
Warm and wonderful
We had a great experience! We have rented through you for many years, including back when you were called “Grantham” – back to 1991. I think we are due for a free week. What do you think? Lila McCarthy
San Francisco says
Wonderful stay--we'll definitely be back!
We loved every minute of our vacation! The condo was perfect and we really took advantage of having our own kitchen. We cooked breakfast and ate it on the balcony every morning and enjoyed cocktails and appetizers in the evening. Vicki at the activities desk was extremely helpful and helped us get the most out of our 5 day vacation–she recommended hikes, whale watching and ziplining. We also recommend going to the Beach House restaurant for a fantastic meal. We ended up going twice in one week because we loved it so much. We didn’t want to leave Kauai but we’ll definitely be back!

Beautiful view, quiet/central location
We enjoyed every moment of or stay in Unit#138 at the Kiahuna Plantation. The central, waterfront location was perfect for long, leisurely walks. The grounds spacious and well maintained. Our unit was comfortable, we enjoyed water view coffee/breakfast on our deck most mornings. We look forward to our next Kauai visit in Nov. 2009. Aloha, Jan & Roger
CA says
Pre-holiday Bliss
The condo had an expansive view of the ocean and was just a short walk across a lush green lawn to the sand. The facility had ample beach chairs available, and the snorkeling at this beach was quick and easy to reach, and somewhat protected from the waves. We loved the restaurant at this site. The mattress in our condo was quite comfortable, giving us a good night’s sleep. The place was very clean when we arrived, and I would recommend it to my close friends.
California says
Beautiful Kauai
We’ve stayed at Kiahuna Plantation numerous times. The Plantation grounds, beach, weather, and accommodations make your trip to the Hawaii Islands very enjoyable and relaxing. The Parrish Properties at Kiahuna are well located and maintained and are definitely a plus to your vacation experience. We look forward to returning.

Honeymoon
We stayed here for our honeymoon, it was great. Would recommend to anyone, condo was perfect and had everything we needed. It even had a small cooler which we used to pack a lunch everyday. That saved tons of money from eating out.
B.C. says
"Old Hawaii" feel
We will definitely return (hopefully in 2009 & if possible, annually) – we loved everything about it – the beautiful grounds, sunsets, casual-elegant accommodation, Plantation restaurant & resort staff. We really enjoyed the laid-back “Old Hawaii” feel of the property & Kauai itself compared to some areas of Maui or Oahu we have visited. Mahaho!
California says
Beautiful Paradise
Kiahuna Plantation is absolutely beautiful! We truly enjoyed our stay in Paradise! The condo was wonderful with its view of the beach and ocean. We cannot wait to go back to Kauai!

Kiahuna Plantation
This was our second stay at the Kiahuna Plantation. The grounds are beautiful and the location is great–close to everything, but quite secluded in the lush and quiet tropical setting. The beach in front is lovely and can become crowded, but overall it’s very nice. Our unit was satisfactory for the two of us, but I think that updating it would be advisable. The carpet needed cleaning, and the bathroom was less than wonderful.It would also be nice to have a pool more tailored for adult swimming, since the one across the street is mainly for kids. And a computer center would be nice for those who don’t want to bother carrying their laptops along. I went next door to the Sheraton to use theirs. We would like to return to Kiahuna Sunset in the near future, and I think we’d enjoy moving forward toward the beach this time.It has lots to offer.

Nice family spot right on the beach
Kiahuna isn’t fancy, but it is right on a sandy beach with perfect kid sized waves. The units are mostly around a large lawn area that is perfect for a quick game of soccer or frisbee. The units are comfortable and well-equiped. Furnishings are basic but more than adequate. Note that they are not air-conditioned, but we have not found this to be a problem the two visits we have made during the spring. Louvered interior “windows” ensure good air flow through the unit (note that this means that sound travels easily as well). If you want restaurant meals or a mai tai to sip as you watch the sunset, you can go next door to the Sheraton or across the street where there is a mini-mall. The small pool with a waterslide and toddler’s wading area is also across the street; the main action here is on the beach. The Sheraton offers surfing lessons right in front of the Kiahuna. The units are showing their age a bit, but Kiahuna still seems like a good value for the price, given the wonderful setting. We’ve been twice, and will probably go again the next time we return to Kauai.
