Plantation Cottage is a bit of old Kauai with modern updates to the kitchen and bath. The front porch was a shaded haven for relaxation. The kitchen was well outfitted, beds were comfortable, there were lots of fans to assist the nearly constant breezes. Great location for families with small children; easy walk to Poipu Beach. The rental company and maintenance are very responsive. The huge monkey pod tree in front hosts a variety of birds. The landscaping is diverse and abundant. The property has a second rental cottage. Two other buildings are used daily by the friendly owner, who lives nearby. During our stay this was not a problem for us, but it might be for those seeking more privacy.

Manager's Response

Mahalo for your thoughtful review! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the charm of Plantation Cottage. We hope to welcome you back for another relaxing stay in the future! Aloha!

Our family visits Kauai annually and we rent two homes. We rent the Plantation Cottage and the Pane Road Hale next door. We stayed in the Plantation Cottage with one of our grandsons. It has plenty of room for 3 - 4 people. We particularly enjoy eating on the front porch. Another lovely visit.

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Plantation Cottage. Perfect, quiet location. It has everything you need and gives a very relaxing island vibe. I could sit on the lanai and listen to the random sprinkle and birds all day. Gorgeous Monkey Pod tree provides nice shade to keep the home cool. The outdoor shower was a great amenity after a day at the beach. We especially loved visiting the outdoor cat, Oni Oni. There is also a mango tree that we enjoyed a couple fresh mangos from. If we come back to south Kauai we'd definitely stay here again!

Plantation Cottage is a wonderful place. My wife and I have been to Kauai multiple times, and we love Poipu Beach. We always look for rental properties on Pane Road due to the location and Plantation Cottage fits that bill.
The Cottage itself is fine but it might be a bit outdated. The fan in one of the bedrooms is quite noisy and so is the bed. The family room furniture definitely needs an upgrade and also the TV. A smart TV would be nice so you can stream from your personal device.
A few things to know about this rental. There are more buildings/houses on the property and there could be more renters. We stayed for 2 weeks and had no renters, but the owner kept coming at all times every day. I know it’s his property and he can come and go as he pleases, but if we had known, I would not have rented this place. You rent a house because you want privacy. Again, other renters would be ok, since you’d have known and both parties would have been on the same level, but the owner coming by constantly is just not what you’d expect.
Another thing not mentioned in the description; the owner has a cat living on the property; I’m not a cat person and I don’t want a cat on my lanai table during lunch or dinner. It starts “asking for food” in the morning and begs on the lanai.
Having said that, we enjoyed the place to the fullest and the owner is very friendly and drops fresh fruit at the Lanai, he also brought new Beach chairs. Kauai, Brennecke’s and Poipu Beach are still my favorite spots.

This is our 15th year staying in the Plantation Cottage and looking forward to 2025. Great location and we love the retro setting and architecture. I feed the birds each day and watch the Myna, red crested Cardinals, Northern Cardinals, Rock Dove, Stripped Dove and Java Sparrows, not to mention Kauai's Chickens. Watching the star studded sky while using the outdoor shower is a highlight.

We spend a month each year in late winter in Poipu. This cottage is our go to place. It has 2 nice bedrooms and one small one (a single bed). My wife and I stay here and rent the one next door for our family. It is well equipped and has new appliances in the kitchen. We love that it has a covered porch (yes sometimes it rains on Kauai). It's a short walk to Brennecke's Beach where we ofter view the sunset.

Good experience overall. Close to the beach, beach chairs and snorkel equipment there to use. We bought a bucket with shovels etc and left for future families. Walls are thin so you have to be quiet after kids are asleep. I wish we would have known about laundry access, would have made our trip so much better as there are no close laundromats near by. I found a key hanging by the back door labeled "laundry" on our last morning there. Kitchen well stocked with appliances. The beds do make a lot of noise just rolling over on them. Otherwise great experience. The woman staying in the back house of lot was friendly and helpful. There is a bar very close by with live music which can be loud at night but the fans mainly blocked out the noise even with windows open. Thank you for letting us stay at your property!

A friend and I enjoyed the home for a week. The beds are comfy, the bathroom is modern, the furnishings are beach house comfortable. The kitchen is very well equipped, except could use more glass drinking glasses instead of plastic tumblers. Plenty of fans and plenty of towels were very appreciated. Beach chairs etc were available. The house is very clean. I encountered a few harmless scared small critters in the kitchen near the end of our stay. The exterior access could be improved—the driveway has a large rock you have to avoid, and the stepping stones to the front door are spaced too far apart to use. Do heed the instructions about parking on one side of the driveway, as gardeners parked on the other side. The porch was a lovely place to eat and hang out at all times of day, with the monkeypod tree sheltering above and filled with birds. We liked hearing the surf crashing at Brennecke’s Beach. Occasional music from Kalapaki Joe’s drifted over at happy hour. Loved being able to walk places. It was a happy week staying at the Plantation Cottage.

We often stay at the Plantation Cottage for a month in late winter. As usual the cottage was very comfortable for my wife and me and a series of house guests. In particular, we love the covered porch and the location close to the beach. This year the kitchen appliances were new which improved our ability to prepare meals.

This was such a lovely, comfortable, cozy cottage. We felt so at home here! Montgomery and Julie are friendly, helpful hosts. The cottage was clean and beautiful touches like orchids in the house. An easy stroll to swimming beaches. We will be back! If you are someone who prefers something a little more home and neighborhood than the hotels and condos, this is it!

Uncomfortable..The property owner made daily appearances,leaving us to feel as if we were being watched.When I did our laundry,the person who had done their laundry just prior from the back house had lost something in the dryer and it melted and ruined nearly all of our cloths. This was the worst vacation we have ever had. It was our anniversary trip. That got ruined. We will never stay in this house again.

It was incredibly clean upon our arrival and the check-in process was very efficient. Quiet, relaxing mornings under the Monkeypod tree-what could be better?

A  beautiful home, perfect for our family’s visit to Kauai! Easy walking distance to Poipu and Brennecke’s Beaches. A short drive to restaurants, shopping, and Shipwreck Beach. Nice floor plan and size of cottage for our family. The outdoor lava shower was a nice bonus, and we enjoyed the front porch for meals and visiting! The property owner was attentive and had great recommendations for restaurants and nearby places to visit. Highly recommend.

The cottage was absolutely perfect for our needs, a family of four. Everyone had their own space. Very clean, very comfortable. It had every amenity we would need, beach chairs, towels, laundry soap, etc. We walked down to the beach every day.

We had a small hiccup in that the ice maker was broken and there were no ice trays, but a call to the management company fixed that almost immediately. It's true that the furniture on the lanai isn't what is in the pictures, but we didn't care. There are comfortable chairs and we sat out there every day.

I would absolutely reserve the cottage again, we loved it.

Charming but could use some upgrades.

I booked the property because I love the plantation homes of Hawaii and the location cannot be beat. While yes, the house is charming it is also very dark and musty and needs a deep clean. The location is amazing but in my opinion this house could be amazing and still charming with some upgrades: the beds! are squeaky old spring beds on rolling box spring and should be replaced. The appliances need to be replaced and overall furniture has prob been there since 1980. I mean I get “if it’s not broke, why fix it”, but some minor upgrades would make the stay much nicer. I requested the management provide new towels and replace broken patio furniture and they were great and did so and even provided another place to stay. Overall, we decided to cut our stay short at this house and again management was very kind and worked with us. Wish this place was as charming in person as it is in pictures, but for me this was it the case.

If you want to experience Kauai as it was meant to be experienced make your reservations to stay at the Plantation Cottage. Wake up in the morning to have your coffee/breakfast (or drinks after a long day relaxing on the beach) on the front private porch enjoying the lovely foliage and birds surrounding you. No long sterile hallways or rooms looking all the same.

The cottage is rustic - in the best way. Its charm lay in its Hawaiian themed decor, location, and hosts. It had all we could need or want in the kitchen, fast Wi-Fi, an outdoor shower and off street parking (to name a few of the amenities). Also, you can walk to the beach (plenty of towels and other items for enjoying the beach) or restaurants, and additional restaurants and shopping were only a short drive away. It didn't have AC but with many windows and ceiling fans we were never hot despite the 80 degree temperatures.

Our hosts, Julie and Yuri, were lovely. They greeted us when we arrived and made sure that we knew where everything was and answered all our questions.

We had never been on Kauai before, but I'm pretty sure this is the paradise experience for a family with teens and college-age kids. Fabulous boogie boarding, adequate-plus snorkeling, lots of opportunity to see green sea turtles. The owner, Montgomery, was so welcoming and helpful. He gave us some easy-to-master, close-by recommendations for good food, shopping and recreation. I would recommend this property to anybody I know! I would tell them they would be crazy to stay anyplace else!

Our family of 5 recently stayed at the Plantation Cottage and it fit our needs perfectly. It was a quaint little house sitting on a beautiful property a stone's throw from the ocean and dining but tucked away so it was quiet (except for our kids!) and private. The owner stopped by to say hello and make sure we settled in and then gave us some bananas from his tree, which were so delicious. We barely bothered with the indoor shower, preferring to use the outdoor shower. It had every convenience we needed (hairdryer, washer/dryer, plenty of towels, boogie board, etc.) and was a perfect place for us to rest and relax after an activity-filled day. We would definitely stay there again!

We've stayed at the Plantation Cottage on our last 4 winter vacation trips to Kauai. We usually stay for 3 weeks. It's a simple 3 bedroom cottage located on a quiet side street only a block from Brennecke's Beach. It's a perfect spot for a family vacation.

This year the owners updated the kitchen and installed new floors. They also redid the roof. So they continue to maintain it in good condition and update it. It also has a laundry and a fun outdoor lava shower (which our grandkids loved).

The KVR folks have always been very accommodating, but this year they went the extra mile. Our dates constantly fluctuated; because of the additional Kauai quarantine requirements our flights seemed like they were changing all the time. The KVR people were very flexible in working with us to accommodate our schedule.

We've booked it again for our next winter trip to Kauai and highly recommend it.

We’ve stayed here the last four years while on our mid-winter break from the Seattle gloom. It’s a simple, comfortable cottage only a block from the beach. It’s perfect place for a little family to stay and play.We particularly enjoy the covered porch for reading and relaxing even when the weather doesn’t cooperate. It’s a great spot for morning coffee. This year the cottage was updated with new countertops and fixtures in the kitchen. There is also an outdoor lava shower, a gas barbeque, and a laundry. The cottage is an easy walk to local restaurants and bars. We love the ambience of the cottage and plan to continue to stay on our annual trips to Kauai.

When planning our trip to Kauai, we specifically looked for a vacation rental that was not a hotel or condo, but a free-standing home. We could not have been happier with our choice of the Plantation Cottage. It is located a couple of blocks from one of the most beautiful beaches in Kauai. Staying in the cottage gave us the true feeling of what it must be like to live in Kauai. Shortly after our arrival, we met the owner of the cottage, who could not have been more warm and welcoming. He gave us valuable suggestions about places to eat and sights to see during our stay. One of the fondest memories is of the many birds that sing from the trees on the property, which is landscaped with many tropical plants and flowers. There is even an outdoor shower constructed of lava rock. The house provided more than enough space for the two of us. The kitchen has all the tools necessary to prepare a meal and the porch is the perfect spot to enjoy your breakfast! We were genuinely sad to leave after our eight day stay. Yes, we are already talking about returning to the plantation cottage and Kauai.
