Beachfront in Paradise

vrbo We had a shaky start trying to find the office to get the key. Finally had to call for directions. Way too out of the way! We were not given a map of the Kiahuna Plantation and no one even wanted to talk to us, just pointed to the lock boxes and went back to what they were doing. We have stayed at the Kiahuna a number of times but never in that unit. We finally had to go to the registration building to find out which driveway to take and exactly where the building was. When we finally got to our unit neither of our keys worked! We had to call the management office and they contacted security to let us in and then the agent came z while later to give us new keys. Inside the unit was our welcome packet and the map of the resort. Sure would have been handy to have it earlier - like when we picked up our key!!! Once we were in the unit our vacation finally started and it was everything we could have hoped for. A lovely unit, kitchen with every cooking utensil one could ever need, great beach assessories, the sound of the surf, and the ocean right off the lanai. We loved our stay there!!!

Mahalo Susan for your review and comments. We want to apologize for your check-in experience. On your arrival day, our Koloa office was inaccessible, as they were removing a tree from the middle of our driveway. This is the location where you would normally pick up your keys, and the whole welcome packet- including the map. Because of this tree removal, we asked you to pick up your keys at our Nalo office. This was a temporary process, and our normal Koloa Office pickup procedure has been restored. The magnetic keycards sometimes become demagnetized if they are near cell phones, magnets, or even other credit cards. We know this is inconvenient and, again, apologize that this was part of your check-in experience. Please know that the Kiahuna Plantation Resort will be moving towards using key-coded door locks, eliminating any complications with the key cards in the future. It does sound like, after your check-in, you had a lovely stay. We are glad to know that you found you needed to feel at home. We cannot wait to host you again soon. A hui hou.

Amazing honeymoon stay

We stayed here for 3 nights for our honeymoon and it was perfect. Beautiful views and beach access. Great restaurants around. We did a lot of exploring out of the home but it was a perfect home base. Tidepools and beach house were wonderful restaurants. Little fish co was amazing coffee and açaí bowls. Loved every minute of our stay.

Mahalo Grace for your five-star review and comments. We are so happy you celebrated your honeymoon with us and had a fantastic stay. We cannot wait to welcome you back for your anniversary.

A true Holiday!

The place was amazing..to hearing the waves crash at night, to stepping out our back lanai to see the surf, amazing! The place is clean, extremely well furnished, has every amenity and you can’t beat the location- walk out your door and the great beach is right there. We loved it!

Ellen says
January, 2023

The view definitely made the place. The condo itself was shabby and in need of renovation.

Mahalo Ellen for taking the time to leave a review and share your comments. We agree, the view from this unit is incredible. We are sorry that you felt the unit wasn't up to your expectations. We advertise it as deluxe, meaning it is well-maintained and updated within the past ten years. The photos are an accurate representation of the unit itself. If there was something we could have done to make your stay more comfortable, we would have loved to address it while you were here. Next time, just let us know. Mahalo.

Gorgeous shorefront condo in Poipu!

My husband and I stayed at Kiahuna 197 for our honeymoon over New Year’s and couldn’t have been happier with the property! First off, let me just say, the views are even more stunning in real life than they are in the pictures. You really have just a short little fence separating you from the sandy beach and expansive ocean. You walk about 100 feet and you’re at the beach entrance, and you get to see sunsets every night! You’re a quick walk from the point where turtles come to rest every evening and seals come to rest everyday, and the sunrise is viewable there, too. The property itself was also amazing! The bed was super comfortable, and the bathroom area and bedroom doors close off so there’s lots of privacy. The kitchen is extremely well-appointed, with pretty much all the utensils, tools, and flatware you’d need. We ended up cooking several times! You can also use the grill in the courtyard areas around the condo. There are comfy chairs and a sofa (pull-out!) in the living room, plus a smart TV. There’s a TV with a DVD player in the bedroom. The patio a table and chairs plus two reclining lounge chairs, and there’s a nice dining room table in the unit. We also ended up walking across the street to utilize the pool and hot tub at Poipu Athletic Club several times! We were a little confused at first about where to actually go and how to get there, but once we figured out it was super easy and hassle-free. The concierge was available by text and always helpful and responsive! We had a pretty magical time and are so grateful we found this unit at Kiahuna! It was the PERFECT spot for us to get to hikes at Waimea and Koke’e or up to Hanalei to check out the north shore. We will DEFINITELY be staying here again, maybe with our kids next time! Thank you for your hospitality and hosting us!

Love this spot!

We stayed next door to this unit four years ago, and fell in love with the location. But this particular unit was even better! We couldn't believe how well-stocked the kitchen was, and the location literally cant be beat!

Very spacious, Beautiful location right on the beach. We would stay here again!

Great great location! Even when you are tired and do not feel like going outside, you can take the best naps with the sound of the ocean right in front of your porch. Good communication with the host, there was a treatment for the community but they were able to have our unit skipped so that we were able to enjoy the day without worrying about the treatment schedule.

Greg, San Francisco, CA says

Awesome spot, true to pictures and description. Check-in was super easy, location is great, would highly recommend as a hotel alternative with a ton of amenities nearby.

Mahalo Greg for your five-star review.  We appreciate your recommendation and we are so happy that you enjoyed your stay. We hope to host you again soon.  Aloha.

Lovey stay! Renting with Parrish was particularly good - lots of early and good communication and attention to detail. The condo is truly one of the few right on the beach. We love our air conditioning and were are little worried about this condo not having any, but never fear, we were perfectly comfortable and even felt we slept better with the fresh air. Lots of good restaurants nearby - we walked to Red Salt right next door and to Keoki\'s Paradise across the street. Well stocked kitchen and very high end and well-kept grills on the plantation (about a 2 minute walk from the condo). Good laundry facilities on the plantation, again about a 2-3 minute walk from the condo. Beach is very lovely - it\'s a sand bottom (very little rocks) so had a very comfortable swim every day after touring Kauai.

Mahalo Caitlin for your 5-star review and thoughtful comments.  It is wonderful to hear that our team was able to help you feel comfortable throughout your stay.  Glad to hear that you really liked the unit, the beach and the property at Kiahuna Plantation.  We are already looking forward to hosting you again soon. Aloha and a hui hou.

Better than the pictures

We loved it. Had everything we needed. We Ended up ditching some of our plans to hang out at the condo more.

Mahalo Chet for your 5-star review and comments. We are so happy that the unit exceeded your expectations It is great to hear that you had everything you needed to feel at home. We look forward to hosting you again soon. Aloha and a hui hou!

Incredible Stay!!!

I can't say enough wonderful things about this unit! This is our second time staying at the beachfront units and they never disappoint. We love the location because you can just walk right out to the beach with beautiful sunsets every night. From the unit - you can walk up the street for coffee, juice, food and shopping or hike a little further to the Heritage Trail or to Spouting Horn. The unit was super clean, the kitchen is well-stocked, and there are lots of beach toys - especially boogie boards which were so much fun! The communication with Parrish Collection was excellent! They even sent a text during the stay to make sure everything was going well. Mahalo for such an incredible stay!

Mahalo for such an enthusiastic 5-star review! We appreciate your comments and we are so happy that you loved the unit and got to enjoy those beautiful sunsets on the beach. It is great to hear that our team was able to help you feel comfortable during your stay. We look forward to hosting you again soon.

Paradise

Very few things in life are worth it as much as our stay here was. Just open the glass doors and take in the beach and ocean. It is literally your backyard. Walking distance to shops, restaurants, everything else on the property as well. One Kauai tip: go to Queen\'s Bath! Be prepared for a muddy and little challenging hike, but extremely worth it.

Gregg, Annapolis, MD says

By far the best airbnb i have stayed at and i have used airbnb all over the world. Truly right on the beach! Despite the check in process being botched, the place is so perfect for 2. Upgraded kitchen. Cooked breakfast daily, blended drinks, comfortable bed. No A/C needed with the breeze and sounds of the ocean. Very romantic!

Unit 197

Pure Paradise! Private. Tranquil sounds. Clean natural beauty. Well equipped unit so all cooking was easy. A great value.
Todd, Boulder, CO says
June, 2021

The location of this unit is amazing. It is truly, right on the water. The ocean is steps away and we heard the crash of the waves constantly. If you are looking for a place where you can jump in the ocean and then take a few steps to your lounge chair on your patio, this is it. This is why the unit is more expensive than others on the property. It is worth it if beach front is what you are looking for. Because of timing we moved to another unit later in our stay. That unit was lovely as well but you can’t beat the beach front location of this unit. Another plus is the ocean breeze cools the unit off quickly at night. The kitchen had every pot, pan, knife etc. you could want. Very well supplied. There is also a closet with nice beach toys for all ages. We would stay here again in a second.

Wonderful beach front property

We have stayed at the Kiahuna Plantation at least 10 times and this unit has the best stocked kitchen I have ever had. Usually there are just a few plates and utensils but this unit has good knives, lots of utensils and cooking tools as well as plates and glasses. Makes it so much nicer for cooking. All the appliances are new as well. Also the location of the unit gives you lots of privacy and you can hear the ocean waves in the bedroom. I loved falling asleep to that! Most units I have stayed in come with beach supplies in the closet in the living room. I didn’t discover until the last day that there was a closet outside by the front door that has all those items. Bummer for us because I rented some of the things that were supplied for free but we didn’t notice the outside closet just because most unit don’t have them outside so make sure you don’t miss those! There is a sun umbrella, boogie boards and a cooler. Nice supplies to be able to use! I do wish that mid week there had been a towel refresh included for the price we paid per night, especially since we were there for 10 nights. We have always had that included in other units. One bummer for all the beach front units is that the shrubbery between the beach and the grass is getting washed away so they have installed a short fence. We like the beach front properties as we like to sit in chairs on the grass or porch and watch the ocean. The height of the fence blocks the view when you are sitting. That is a huge bummer and I’m not sure I would stay ground level anymore. We had a problem with the DVD player and their response to fix it was immediate. Great customer service! It’s a wonderful condo on a great beach within walking distance of Starbucks and some great restaurants.
Mahalo Tracy for your 5 star review and comments! We are so happy that you found the unit to be well-stocked and that you enjoyed the sounds of the waves as you slept. All of our units are supplied with beach gear and the location of those items are always listed in the unit directory. However, if you have trouble finding anything, please give us a call and we will always point you in the right direction. We are happy to hear that our team was able to help with the DVD player and any other concerns you had during your stay. We hope to host you again soon. Mahalo and a hui hou!

Beautiful accommodations and view

This property is everything that it says it is and what we were looking for. Hurricane Flossie skirted the islands when we where thee and stirred up a nice surf for us. Love the place and location!

Beautiful location, but what's with the bed?

This condo’s location was perfect. Just steps from the water with a hedge to provide privacy. It’s a little cramped with all the oversized furniture, but the real disappointment was the bed. We’ve stayed in hundreds of hotels and this was probably in the top 5 of worst bed. It’s like sleeping on concrete and creaks with every movement. We were so happy to leave that bed. There’s a book that the owners leave for guests to record their thoughts and adventures. We did the same thing in a VRBO of our own. The book, started over ten years ago, has very few entries and zero in the past 7 months. Maybe people love your condo’s location but are really upset about the bed. It’s a 1 bedroom, for couples, with no glass in the windows and a creaky bed. Think about it…..
Aloha Adam, Mahalo for your comments. Actually, this bed is less than two years old and was specifically chosen by the owner to be firmer as they do not like soft squishy hotel beds. Beds are always a matter of opinion and sorry this was too firm for you. We also checked on the “creaky” noise and did not find anything. The owner is also in house and they have not been able to duplicate any similar sound during their two plus week stay. In terms of the guest book, I am not sure what you were looking at, but the owner put in a new one when they bought the unit (less than two years ago) and it has eleven entries of guests enjoying the unit. Mahalo.

Spectacular ocean front condo

Loved this condo! Best stocked kitchen we have seen. Great for people who like to cook. Beautiful furnishings. Top notch!

Oceanfront condo, amazing view, clean, and equipment updated.

When we just arrived, we were surprised by looking at the ocean front view. Overall very nice, it looks like they have updated the facilities for sure, looks still very new, and of course it is clean. Before we came, there was a little concerned about no A.C in the condo, but the fact is, two ceiling fans and one remote fan totally works. (We arrived in the beginning of October, 2018). So we’ll come back soon, hope next time still get a chance to stay here again, and thanks again for sharing this nice condo with us.
Mahalo Chen-Ting for the 5-star review and comments. We look forward to hosting you again soon. Aloha and a hui hou.

Our happy place

We loved this place. The water views, the cool trades, brilliant starry nights! Fully stocked kitchen in fact so well stocked that there’s no room for food storage, HA! Lots of beach toys and everything you will need for fun in Poipu!

Literally right on the beach

Great unit, right on super beach, well stocked and well located on south side of island. Only reason for 4 stars is Rental agency made us come to their office to change keys mid stay (think they should have dropped off rather) and the bed mattress is a little old. Will happily return
Mahalo Jason and you are right, we should have dropped the new keys off. I apologize and I will review this with our front desk team to ensure it does not happen again. We look forward to hosting you again soon. A hui hou.

Great oceanfront condo on Kiahuna Beach

We just stayed four days at this very nice oceanfront condo for spring break. The location is amazing, right on the beach and easy walking distance to Poipu Beach. The location is great, very close to old Koloa town and the shopping center is Koloa. We walked to breakfast to Little Fish Coffee Co a couple of days. Try DaCrack as well. There is no AC in the condo, but the fan in the bedroom kept it plenty cool at night. And great sunsets from right outside. We used the community BBQ a few nights to grill fish. Would definitely stay there again.

Everything went very smoothly. Can't think of anything to improve. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay - we WILL return!

The lanai and location of the unit; the bed was VERY comfortable and we loved the proximity to everything we wanted to do. We LOVE Kiahuna Plantation; this was our 4th time staying there and #197 was by far the best property!
Mahalo Clare for your 5-star review, comments and continued loyalty. We look forward to hosting you on your next trip! Aloha and a hui hou.
