Poipu Plantation Vacation Rentals, hotel in Waimea

Poipu Plantation Vacation Rentals offers accommodations in Koloa, 18 miles from Wailua Falls and 19 miles from Lydgate State Park.

Extremely easy. Knowing where to go/where my suite was tricky for about 30 seconds, and otherwise very smooth. An unexpected surprise was the quality of the BnB portion of our stay -- every morning by 8AM there was a unique, locally-sourced breakfast and fresh coffee waiting for us right next to our bedroom. Property was gorgeous and within walking distance to poipu beach. What else... Doing a load of laundry was easy, and Pete was very hands-off/friendly.

The Cabins at Kokee, hotel in Waimea

Set in the Waimea Park, The Cabins at Kokee is 5.6 mi from Waimea Canyon. A full kitchen is available in each cabin. Polihale Beach is 11 mi from the property.

I recommend staying at the cabins if 1) you want a bit of an adventure, 2) you want to be closer to the Waimea Canyon & Kalalau Valley lookouts, and 3) you don't mind being a bit rustic. After I had already spent 6 nights in Poipu, I spent 3 nights at these cabins to try something different. The cabins were way cleaner than I thought they would be, and I didn't have any issues at all with bugs. Be forewarned that there is no cell/internet service available at the cabins, they are heated by a wood buring stove (you can buy wood/newspaper/firestarters/matches from the office for about $22), and being in one of the duplexes means there will be another party in the other part of the cabin with very little soundproofing -- but I had a great time even with all that. I knew I could drive down the mountain about a mile and get cell/internet service if needed (or the Koke'e Lodge has wi-fi when it's open too), I figured out how to start a fire which was fun, and the people on the other side of the duplex stopped talking at 10:00 PM (when quiet hours began). So you can enjoy a very comfortable, clean, quiet, yet rustic time at these cabins if you'd like! FYI that the Koke'e Lodge is actually really awesome (it was like a hip coffee shop with great food), and I loved being close to the Kalalau Valley lookout to be able to see it first thing in the AM before the clouds rolled in. I was confused during research, so just FYI that it's free to go up and down this road -- you only pay if you want to stop at 1-4 of the 4 official state park lookouts -- you'll pay $10/car and $5/person in the car (so $15 for one person) and that allows you to stop at all of the lookouts for the rest of the day.

Wonderful grounds, location, and beach at your doorstep. Great spot to relax, swim, snorkel, or learn to surf. The grounds are immaculate with lots of plants and flowers. There's a small shopping center across the street with restaurants. The beach is mostly private and a wonderful spot for sunsets. A beach cabana will give you a clean beach towel each day. There's a laundry facility on site.

    Don't bother, so many more options available.

    Don't bother, so many more options available. If you want to see some original cottages, just drive by. Many locals stay there for parties with lots of people in one cottage - they receive nice discounts but do like to stay up late! I would not go to Hawaii to swim in a pool but saw many people use theirs. The beach was poor so no one was on it since you cannot swim. They could have supplied bikes - that would have been a bonus. The distance to everything except Waimea Canyon is far but if you are planning on hiking the canyon daily it is your second best option (the first being cabins 1/2 way up the mountain). You need a car since there is only one restaurant near by and the kitchen facilities are poor. Hiking was great - would have been nice to stay where we could rent a paddle board or surfboards / boogie boards. Def. take a helicopter ride and see the Napili Coast line from the water!

    We booked the Waimea Inn for what we thought was the week of the Waimea Town Festival. Unfortunately, the dates were changed to the next week. Without the festival, the town has nothing to offer visitors. The beach is not swimmable and there are few shops or sites of interest in the town. Most of the restaurants close at 3:00pm so finding somewhere to eat for dinner is mostly impossible. We found ourselves buying groceries and using the Inn common microwave. I would never have booked a room in Waimea (and especially not the Waimea Inn) if I had known in advance how little Waimea has to offer.

    Its far from restaurants, and swell is large, and due to canyon water is not snokleabble. But its enjoyable for swimmimg, surfing, walking, beach picnic, and its a good place for exploring Waimea canyon by hiking. Most trailheads are within short distance. Virtually no traffic

    Waimea is great for more adventurous travellers focusing on activities like hiking, ocean activities and being beachside. Waimea area has some great camping places on and off the grid. I recommend Waimea as there are so many beaches, and I loved hiking the canyon. You also have great vista views of Napali ridges and the coastline below. Kuaui is small. enough you can get all the way to Hanalei in a little over an hour. Note that there is no way to drive ll the way around the island because of the Napali coast.

    This was our second visit.

    This was our second visit. We returned to take our family hiking in Polihale State Park and Koke'e State Park. However, a recent storm prevented us from hiking at all. So be prepared to find something else to do. The towns nearby are very small. SO if you like quaint and uncrowded, this is your spot.

    Beautifully manicured and maintained grounds. Quiet and tranquil environment. Good WiFi. Mini-split air con units were quiet and efficient. Ceiling fans were helpful. Good to have insect screens on all windows and doors. Efficient check-in. Great on-site food. Outdoor lighting kept low to the ground so insects and nightlife could thrive. We loved being right next to the town of Waimea within easy reach of the canyon and park.

    It’s a cabin in a remote area and not a 5 star hotel. Can’t confirm the complaints of the other people. Showers were outdated but clean and phenomenal water pressure. There were a lot of blankets and the kitchen was fully stocked (no oil). No mobile coverage, 30min way to reception desk and fire wood are clearly communicated at every stage of the booking process.

    For someone like me, such accommodation is just the thing! You have a hut all to yourself, without trampling neighbors in the next room or above you, it is clean and quiet. It is a very spacious, wonderfully green and well-kept hotel complex right by the sea. I also liked the bar, the food was delicious. Also an ideal starting point for trips to the state parks.

    The location is good particularly because of the heavy traffic on the south and east sides of Kauai. Best of all was the staff who were exceptionally friendly, helpful and kind. The lack of a pool or hot tub on the property was a disappointment but we knew that before arriving. Many, many thanks to the staff especially Shannon, Pappy and Nicole.

    I was staying in the Bananaroom, which was huge! As it has an overall-rating of 7.5, I wasn’t expecting much, but fortunately got surprised in a very good way! the two rooms were clean, very comfortable und nicely decorated. I enjoyed my stay very much and the location is perfect - especially for visiting Waimea Canyon and Koke’e park!

    Being a field biologist, I liked the rustic simplicity of my cabin in Kokee State Park. It was perfectly located for me to go birdwatching, hiking, and sunset watching. I can see how lodging in the Cabins of Kokee is not for everyone. I, however, enjoyed a break from technology and enjoyed the peace and quiet of nature.

    The proprety is stunning, in a beautiful setting on the oceanfront. You have everything you need within a 20 min drive, but just for all the essentials, Waimea town is sufficient. There is a taco place simply out of this world within a 10 min walk. Very calm, quiet, and the most amazing evenings we had in Hawaii

    There are very few properties that are so close to Waimea Canyon. It is remote and beautiful. Staff were super-friendly and helpful.
