Outrigger Kiahuna Plantation

We have been on many vacations and this vacation was not one of the better ones, mainly due to the stay at the Outrigger Kiahuna Plantation. The place was hot, no air conditioning, and noisy. The walls are paper thin and could hear everything from other units next to us and above us. The swimming pool is not at the same location as any of the rooms or buildings we stayed at. The swimming is located quite a distance away, old, isolated and not what one would expect from a resort. Do yourself a favor and go to a real resort, it will be worth the extra money. A beautiful island with lots to do!

The setting was beautiful and so convient to the beach. The grounds were really well taken care of and the staff was wonderful. The pool across the street is strange and not that great, but who needs that when the Pacific is a few steps away!

Stayed here 10/2 - 10/8.. I was expecting a better than 3 stars like what the rating shows but was disappointed. There is no A/C. It was my fault I did not check properly when I was looking for acommodations, I was blindsided by the rating. The ceiling fans (bedroom and living room and 1 portable fan) were not adequate to cool off the hot and muggy night up to 3 am in the morning even the Lanai screen door (need fixing since January, per comments book in the room) is open. This is our 5th time in Kauai and this is the only time I did not enjoy our trip, for sleep deprivation. ...Now the good stuff... The front desk are more than fantastic helping us. Housekeeping was more than happy to make our stay more comfortable, giving us fresh towels almost everyday. Kitchen is fully equipt for a small meal, although we only cooked twice, wifey refused to cook dinner, (per her) it is too hot to cook! .. Summary: Condo is good on winter months.. If you can tolerate muggy and hot nights without aircon on spring/fall especially summer, this is for you. I know, I will not come back here.

My husband and I stayed here for 7 nights. Beautiful grounds, great beach and attentive staff. Rooms problems were delt with timely. Wish we didn't have to walk across the street to go to pool, but the beach here is good and the state beach, with good snorkling, is just a short walk away. VERY expensive to eat out here, so stop and fill up fridge!! Enjoyed our stay but probably our only trip to Kauai.

We had a wonderful time staying at Kiahuna Plantation. The grounds were lovely, the room clean and the beach close and great for playing and swimming in. It is close to all Poipu has to offer. We are already planning to come back. Only issue we had was with our stove and maintenance was there to fix it within 10 minutes. Be sure to make a trip up north to Tunnels beach if you like snorkeling.

Very nice place to stay in Kauai. Grounds and garden were spectacular. Royal Garden view unit spacious and clean. A very very relaxing place to hang your hat. Minor downside is the pool is across the highway....a short walk or 2 minute drive. Will definitely stay there again.

I WAS PLEASANTLY SURPRISED WITH THIS CONDO. THE GROUNDS ARE BEAUTIFUL, ON THE OCEAN, A WALK ACROSS THE STREET TO RESTAURANTS AND SHOPS. I WOULD DEFINITELY STAY HERE AGAIN! I WAS CONCERNED WITH THE COMMENTS IN OTHER REVIEWS ABOUT ROAD NOISE FROM A NEARBY ROAD. IT IS A SECONDARY ROAD AND THE CARS GOING BY SOUND MORE LIKE A PASSING BREEZE. I LEFT THE WINDOWS OPEN ALL DAY AND NIGHT AND WAS NEVER BOTHERED BY ANY ROAD NOISE. ON-SITE RESTAURANT IS PHENOMENAL. GREAT PLACE TO STAY THAT IS CENTRAL TO EVERYTHING. GREAT FOR COUPLES, FAMILIES, AND FRIENDS.

The staff was very friendly! They helped us plan sctivities on the island. It is in a great location ! Other then sleeping in our rooms we were quite active with seeing the island. The only down side to our room was that we could hear the people upstairs walking around.

The room was clean and the maid service was good. The staff that checked us in was very nice and the concierge, Karen was great. Decor is a little outdated, but we hardly spent any time in the room anyway, we were out enjoying the island

We had an excellent stay in a 1-bedroom that was fully equipped with the exception of one item which the staff supplied within minutes. The one repair needed was also dealt with immediately. One inconvenience was the distance to the breakfast restaurant so it was a good thing we wanted to cook for ourselves in the condo. We must mention also the annoyance each morning of leaf blower and mower noise from the gardening work. Other than that, it was perfect for us -- the beach is large and just steps from the door; the gardens are lovely and expansive; the laundry is well-located (if a bit expensive); there is plenty of parking at the unit; the staff are friendly and efficient. We recommend the Kiahuna Plantation unreservedly.
