First I would like to thank Brenda (owner) for understanding our need to check out 5 days early and fly back home. It seems that the corona virus really took off fast, and after being in Kauai for over three weeks, we felt we needed to get home safely. Another Thanks for refunding some of our payment so quickly....I found it was refunded the day we left. Kauai is a beautiful island, and I hope they can recover from this loss of tourism. The condo was really clean, the recliner was perfect, it met our needs for our vacation (Feb. 22 ~ Mar. 18, 2020). The ONLY negative was the ugly fence across the road. I think it was put up a few years ago for a planned resort/complex, but there must have been a change of plans. It's really an eyesore. The Plantation Hale complex is well maintained, workers for very helpful & friendly. It was nice to have the Coconut Marketplace right next door, and Long's drug within walking distance. Mahalo Brenda for sharing your condo with us. Aloha Kauai Bob & Lindy Z

We stayed at Plantation Hale for a couple weeks. It was a good central location. And the best part was the farmers market next door. The condo had most everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was very comfy.

My husband and I really enjoyed our first visit to Kauai and a lot of it was the wonderful place we stayed at.... very easy after a late landing to find, super easy to get into- no long wait or confusion- absolutely spotless and exactly like the pictures- everything!!! We needed to stay for 5 days and enjoy Kauai!!! Location was great for our first visit to the island. So convenient to have Coconut Market place literally just a short walk away- and that store has EVERYTHING!!!
Checking out was just as easy for us as checking in... thank you for a delightful place to stay!

This property was lovely and very clean. It was a great location to explore the island from. The owner never sent check in instructions, even when requested, and the front desk struggled to find the necessary information to check me in initially. I was also unable to find checkout instructions and was unsure what to do with things like bed sheets and used towels when leaving. Other than those things, this was truly a great place to stay and we had a great experience!

If you are looking for a home base to experience the entire island this is the place to be!
When you drive to the North shore as well as the West side sights like Kokee and Waimea State Parks, you want to be centrally located. We stayed here for 9 nights and it was a great location. Kitchen and bathroom were well equipped with things like spices, utensils, lots of towels, a hair dryer, sunscreen if you forgot yours, etc.
The house was clean, the shower head amazing, and the bed was comfortable.

We had a wonderful time in Kauai from our home base at this condo. The pool and hot tub are nice and close, as well as Coconut Market. Lots of beach supplies and extra towels came in handy. Fully equipped kitchen allowed us to prepare our own meals. Only minor complaint is that a couple of things were broken (owner has been alerted), but these were minor and did not take away from our overall enjoyment. Thanks again, Brenda!

Overall, we had an enjoyable stay at Brenda's condo. The unit is part of the Plantation Hale Suites hotel which is conveniently located next to Coconut Marketplace and a short drive south of numerous shopping centers--so you're never too far away from groceries and dining options! The convenience of getting to downtown Kapaʻa and around the island in general was a huge bonus. As others have mentioned, traffic gets a bit congested in this area, but the delays are hardly noticeable when paradise surrounds you.
The unit and property both came as described. The unit was clean, updated, and offered the perfect amount of space and amenities for a week-long stay for two. There are two wall AC units which cool the place down quickly when in use. We loved having access to the pools and hot tubs. Some other noteworthy bonuses:
- Before our trip we were warned by friends who had visited the island that the roosters would offer an early wake up call so "bring earplugs." We didn't hear them once at the condo. They don't seem to congregate here. More often, we noticed siren noise. (Which didn't bother us since we live in a city.)
- This property is included in the route for the complimentary bus ride to/from Smith's Family Garden Luau.
- Ample parking if you're renting a car.
The only issue we encountered during our stay was unclear check-in instructions. After our 6 hour flight, we were eager to get into the unit and relax. When we checked-in at the front desk, the staff didn't seem to have been notified of our stay so we couldn't get the keys. We ended up waiting for an hour until Brenda confirmed our reservation with the front desk. At the time it was an inconvenience, but in the grand scheme of our stay it was just a little hiccup.
Thank you, Brenda, for offering a safe, comfortable place for us to stay on this beautiful island!

The host was very easy to communicate with and quick to reply to any messages.
The unit is very clean and the bed is comfortable. Close to Safeway and Longs Drug Store and good location to travel north or south to see other attractions of the island. Having three pools was a bonus as it was always easy to find a pool that was quiet. Spas were very warm and had good jet pressure. We enjoyed our stay very much on the beautiful island of Kaua'i.

The condo was perfect for 3 people. Bed was comfy. We made breakfast several days with utensils supplied.
The condo was In the middle of everything we wanted to do.
Only complaint is the toilet area smelled of urine and there was no soap in the bathroom dispenser.
