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.

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.

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.

A perfect getaway

We've been to the Kiahuna many times over the past 40 years, and Chuck's condo is our favorite. The location is great with a lovely view of the large lawn and ocean from the balcony, and given that it's a top floor end unit, it's very private and quiet as well. I also appreciate Chuck's responsiveness to any of our inquiries. He's an excellent host.

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.

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!

Great First Impression of Kauai Began with this Condo!

We had the pleasure of staying at this property in Southern Kauai for one week. The unit itself was excellent and in a great location for all we wanted to explore around the island from Poipu, Hanalei, the Na Pali coast, to a couple of stops in the Lihui and Kapaa area. The condo was impeccably clean and guest-friendly. No AC? Not a problem with the cross-breeze and ceiling fans. All that was in was written in the description proved to be true. I highly recommend staying at this condo if you are considering Kauai as a next vacation destination.

Great hospitality, Oceanfront & Palm trees

My husband and I spent 4 beautiful days in this mesmerizing condo. We couldn’t wait to wake up every morning to look at our balcony views: the blue ocean & the green palm trees. The sheets, the bed & the pillows are comfortable. It’s a very cozy home, it was equipped with all the things we needed for our stay. It is located in a really nice, safe & quiet area, that we would love to come back again when in Kauai. Very easy access to the beach to catch some waves. The host, Chuck is very responsive and ready to answer any questions at any time. He suggested some great restaurants, where we particularly loved: The Beach House (great food and sunset views) & Keoke’s Paradise (great vibes), Puka Dog (for its famous hot dogs). Check in and. Heck out is very easy too. Overall, our time here was a harmonious symphony of comfort, beauty, and exceptional hospitality, leaving us eager to return and relive this unforgettable experience.

Wow! Was even better than expected!

And my expectations were already pretty high based on the other reviews. The unit was absolutely perfect. It was quiet and private. The location was superb. As we walked around the area, we really didn't think we could have chose a better unit to rent on the Kiahuna Plantation grounds. The unit was so perfect for our little family. The bedroom was perfectly dark and quite for sleeping (which is how we like it). We loved being able to sit on the porch and still be able to see the sunset and the waves. The activities closet was awesome to have and we used the chairs and umbrella at the beach. The access to the athletic club was amazing. Their pool over there is gorgeous and the work out facilities were top notch. The restaurant at the athletic club was also very nice. I rarely want to go back to the exact same location after a trip because there is just so much in the world to see, but I can confidently say that i would return to Kauai and would want to stay in this until again in the near future!

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.

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?
