Lovely Ocean View Second Floor End Unit, Great Views, Tennis Club Included

Discover the serene beauty of Kauai's South Shore from Unit 25, a charming retreat at Kiahuna Plantation. Our family has cherished this special property for over 40 years, drawn by its classic "Old Hawaii" atmosphere and unparalleled location. We've thoughtfully remodeled it to enhance comfort while preserving the signature redwood trim.

Here’s what makes Unit 25 stand out:
Prime Location & Views
Stunning Ocean Views: Gaze upon panoramic whitewater views of the surf and ocean from the second-floor lanai.
Enhanced Privacy: Enjoy more seclusion than ground-floor units provide.
Natural Cooling: As an end unit, trade winds provide effortless, year-round cross-ventilation, eliminating the need for A/C.
Shaded Deck: An ancient rainbow tree naturally shades the front deck, creating a comfortable, cool space to relax all day.
Beach Proximity: Stroll through lush, picturesque grounds directly to the aqua-blue ocean and beach.

Comfort & Amenities
Fully Stocked for Fun: Our unique guest closet provides beach umbrellas, snorkeling equipment, tennis rackets, bocce ball, frisbees, and other entertainment gear.
Poipu Beach Athletic Club: Receive a complimentary membership, including access to a kid-friendly pool with a water slide, tennis courts, and a state-of-the-art fitness center. The Cabaña Grill is available for casual dining without reservations.

Dining Options: Walk to nearby restaurants like Keoki's Paradise and Bubba's Burgers, or drive a short distance to acclaimed spots like Eating House 1849 and Merriman’s at the Kukui'ula shopping center.

Area Highlights & Activities
Kauai offers a slower pace, unsurpassed beauty, and endless adventure.

Nearby Activities:
Surfing lessons and gentle ocean swimming.
Scuba rentals, horseback riding, ziplining, and kayaking.
Zodiac rides to the normally inaccessible Na Pali Coast.
Hiking the Nā Pali Coast or around the 4,000' summit of the island.

Must-See Island Destinations:
Kokee State Park (above Waimea Canyon)
Waimea Canyon and Falls
Spouting Horn
Hanalei Bay
Various Farmer's Markets
Unit 25 offers a peaceful, well-equipped base for your unforgettable island stay.

Good to Know:
Ocean View vs. Ocean Front: Our unit is classified as Ocean View, offering excellent whitewater views. Be sure to compare unit levels ("apples to apples") when looking at prices; lower-priced units may not offer an ocean view at all.
Cleaning Fee: There is a standard cleaning charge (approx. $310 including taxes in 2024), payable to Castle Resorts upon departure. This is the only extra charge besides state and local taxes.
The condo features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a coffee maker, a safe, and a phone. Housekeeping is available on request.

Beautiful beachfront property, with plenty of walkable amenities nearby. The condo was comfortable, well equipped and the ocean view from the lanai was perfect. Property staff was friendly and helpful and the garden surroundings felt like the old Hawaiian style that I was looking for.

Our plane was delayed overnight; between host Chuck and the office check in was very smooth. Appreciate their kindness and support. The view is extraordinary. Sipping your morning coffee on the Lanai while taking in the view was irreplaceable. Activity closet suited our needs. Some comments relate to the unit being a bit aged. Not a concern for us. Love the "private staircase" to this unit; allowed us to feel comfortable letting the breeze blow from the open front door to Lanai in the August heat of the day. Our relatives were in Bldg 4. - a quick walk across the lawn. The only upkeep suggestion: The twenty somethings that slept in the sofa bed recommend a new mattress. Aside from that, we will return to this unit. Mahalo!

Beautiful view from this place.

Photos provided by host are accurate. Place is as described with plenty of beach toys and equipment in activity closet. Kauai is a beautiful island that is less developed but enough to entertain the kids. The beach view is great from the living room and balancing. Beach is right there and kids loved it. Didn’t need to use the pool at the club because the beach was perfect each day, even on a partial rainy day. Host was very informative and communicative. Happy with our stay.

Quick trip to Kauai

We were on Kauai to look at properties, so not a typical vacation stay. The unit is in a great location with a wonderful ocean view across a manicured lawn. A comfortable, well-maintained one-bedroom unit with a small kitchen that was fine for our purposes on this visit but a bit small if you are planning to do a lot of cooking. Noise travels on the property. Be aware that you are likely to hear the inevitable early rising noise from young children who have not adjusted to the time change from the mainland, especially if you are renting during the holiday or spring break seasons. A membership to the Poipu Beach Athletic Club is included. The club is a short walk from the unit. We workout at the PBAC whenever we are on Kauai and love the facility.

Lovely anniversary getaway

Overall we loved the property, the view and the beach. Check in was a breeze, the bed was comfortable and location was wonderful. The place is on the older side and could use freshening up but it’s classic Kauai and a tropical island so we enjoyed the comfort and the view and did not mind that it was a little outdated. Overall we were very happy and it met our expectations. Worth booking!

Amazing Aloha Condo!

This is the best condo we have stayed at in kiahuna so far. (4 in total.)While it is not as modern as some of the other newly renovated ones, it has that true Hawaiian vibe throughout from artwork to furniture. Fully stocked kitchen with everything you need! Comfy bed too. The view of the ocean is all you see as you walk through the front door and the short walk to the beach is great. It gave us the best aloha feel and we will always book this condo from now on.

Fantastic!

We (husband and I with daughters ages 12 and 14)stayed at this exceptional property for 5 nights in August on our first trip to Kauai. The condo and its location exceeded our expectations. It is a one minute walk from the unit to stunning Kiahuna beach, and we had to tear our girls away from the ocean(swimming, snorkelling, body boarding and surfing) to visit other sights on the island. The view from the balcony is lovely and seemingly one of the best in the complex. The condo was well equipped with everything you might need, from beach supplies to a fully stocked kitchen and lots of closet/drawer space. The girls were very comfortable on the pull out couch and the king bed in the bedroom was lovely. The fans and fully screened windows and patio door were a welcome alternative to A/C and we were always comfortable. The owner went above and beyond with suggestions for restaurants in the area and assistance with any of our questions. My only hesitation in recommending this condo is I would like it to be available for our next trip to Kauai! Thanks so much to Chuck and family for having us.

Ease, Beauty & Comfort

Chuck’s place was the perfect south shore spot for us. Open and breezy, with charm and comfort, we loved being steps from the beach and relaxing on the balcony. Looking out at the ocean and beautiful grounds from the living area was such a delight. We stargazed from the grounds’ lawn chairs while hearing the ocean sounds at night. The unit has everything you need. Compact but plenty of room for two. Restaurants and fantastic coffee a short walk away. The athletic club was awesome!! It had yoga and every piece of workout equipment you can think of. If you are a cat lover, you’ll also enjoy the resort’s resident kitties who lounge outside the management office. Chuck was very responsive to a couple questions we had. Would def stay here again!

Absolutely Wonderful

There are not enough good things to say about this property and the owner. The latter was very friendly, communicative, and graciously accommodated me in rescheduling our stay due to unforeseen circumstances. This was essentially the honeymoon my wife and I never got to take, and we couldn’t have picked a better place. It was very clean, had an amazing ocean view, and the Kiahuna Plantation grounds were absolutely beautiful. The beach is literally steps away and was perfect. I could go on forever but summarize by saying don't wait, just book this place. You won't regret it! We have already booked it again for next year. A couple of specific notes: 1) It doesn't have A/C, but it doesn't need it. It's an end unit and the trade winds keep it a perfect temperature. 2) The bed is a king size and was nice. There's plenty of closet space and storage for your clothes. 3) The kitchen has everything you need and is big enough to not feel cramped. 4) The living room is also feels roomy, and the lanai is awesome! 5) Did I mention just book this place?
