    For 5 days that we stayed here, it was such a pleasure to stay on this homey vibe space & if given a chance I would definitely stay here again on the next staycation. Conveniently situated in the town of Kapaa, halfway between Hanalei and Po'ipu, Plantation Hale Suites offer you a comfortable & relaxing environment to stay. It was also spacious and it has a fully equipped kitchen & to be honest it feels like I didn't leave home. What I love the most is the two lanais (one from the living room & the other one is from the bedroom) Amenities: All rooms are smoke-free, high speed internet access, individual climate control & ceiling fans, coffee maker, full refrigerator, microwave, four-burner stove with an oven, flat-screen cable TV, hairdryer, washer, dryer, hot tub, swimming pool & jacuzzi. Surrounding area has a walking distance of a pharmacy & convenient store in minutes, 5min. walk to Coconut Marketplace (multiple eateries & boutiques are here, they got Farmer's Market here too), 12mins. walking distance if you wanna go hit Lae Nani Beach while 16mins. if going to Waipouli Beach. And you got a 13mins. drive going to airport. Pretty convenient right? The staffs here are nice but the people living here were kinda a bit grumpy folks. When we came inside in our unit it was clean and smells nice. We are so lucky that who ever cleaned it really did a good job cleaning it. So grateful for all the staffs who accommodate us and treated us nicely. Kudos! Consider your stay here. You might love it here like we did. Mahalo for reading & happy juandering fellow Yeeps.

    The cost is not bad at all. This place is an apartment complex, turned into a hotel. So you definitely get a kitchen to cook in. The place was well maintained and clean. The Jacuzzi worked one night, out of 5 nights we stayed. The bathtub looked dirty, but turned out it was cracked and falling apart. The welcoming was rude but the rest of the stay was nice. There was a checklist of items in room. We were missing one of the items. A rubber bathtub mat. Hopefully they don't bill us for that. Next time, we would stay here again. Especially how close it is to walk over and watch the sunrises.

    Very helpful in sorting out a medical problem. Let us register early...no charge. Suites have lots of space and a decent kitchen. Big deck and available pool were great. Good size bedrooms. Even helped us print our boarding passes.

    Wonderful place to stay! Affordable, clean, quiet, beautiful grounds and friendly staff! It sits across from the beach that is gorgeous, just be careful of the cicadas flying back and forth the path. Great location next to the country mart , shops and some restaurants! Very family friendly!

    Simple condon units. We had unit D5 and it was fine for what we needed and more. Located 15 minutes from the airport in Lihue. It is very convenient walking location to a large Country Market and Long's Drugs. There is beach access as well as shops and restaurants nearby. From Bobby V's Italian Pizzeria, Lava Lava Club, and Chicken in a Barrel. The ABC Market has a wide variety of got food and groceries and anything one might need in short walking distance. So location is great and doubly great for seeing the North and South sides as well. Also in the marketplace were some great local crafts shops. Our room was a one bed. We were hoping for a queen but got a double beds room. The room was tired and dated but fine for us. Everything worked, the bath sink was slow in draining but i cleaned the superficial hair and gunk real quick and it was fine. The air conditioner worked well and good water pressure. Full service kitchen, fridge, TVs in both living and bedroom, the room had its own water heater. You collect a safe key and beach towels at the front desk Pleasant front desk. Our room was never made up but we didn't need or want it to be... so we eventually just left the do not disturb sign up eventually. We easily visited the North and South sides of the island from here. Kapa'a and other eateries are 5 minute drive away. Some good places to eat is EatHealthy Cafe for vegetarians and Bobby V's for good pizza and Italian. If you want toes in the sand while you drink and eat, go to Lava Lava Club. Being on the highway side we heard music from blaring cars most nights but with air on it mostly got drowned out and tired from the day's activities so always got sleep. Even with our stompy upstairs neighbors. Would recommend for great central location on island to explore the entire island. Pleasant and acceptable. Never had a problem parking each night.

    Nope. Do not stay here, UNLESS you are an adventure traveler, or don't have kids, you are REALLY tight on your budget and are tolerant of substandard living spaces. In my case, the bathroom was "gross." (I can't come up with a more diplomatic term.) As you will read in other reviews, the property's management hides under this veil: "Each unit is privately owned, so, unfortunately we have no control over the quality." So, my advice is to not stay here. Let capitalism do its ugly magic. The owners have no impetus to improve if they have consistent income. I understand "some" units have been upgraded. But, in my case, I stepped into a time warp--a San Fernando Valley bachelor pad circa 1974. But it's not just the dated furnishings that detract from Kauai's tropical setting. The space is downright gross. Chipped paint. Soiled carpet. Lumpy seating. But most concerning was the bathtub. (See: pics) The late check-in time was also a hitch in my travel plans. My confirmation said 3pm. When I approached the front desk I was told it is actually 4pm. (My psychic abilities were not functioning when I checked in.) However, my room was not ready until 4:30pm. On the plus side: The property is relatively quiet and within walking distance to a shopping center.

    We like the decor and ambiance. There are points that are negative, but my wife insists I only write a positive 5 star review.

    The suite I paid for, Gross!

    This hotel has major flaws, My suite is dirty, literally there is a sign on the wall located in entrance that states"take your shoes off before entering " not takin my shoes off because the carpet is dirty, vey dirty, smelly like a dog or cat did there business on the floor, Gross ! Bathtub is dirty. It's too late on a Friday to find a better place stay. Otherwise I would have left on the spot, It's going to be difficult to sleep. Sleeping in my clothes tonight and with a mask. I give this place two stars only because the location Don't stay here. Pay more and stay at a high end hotel.

    Came here for the first time with my family while visiting Kauai. We booked through Expedia.com because the rates were much lower than anything else that I researched. When we got here to check in, I noticed that you can upgrade your room AND get a 10% discount when you check in on YELP. I was so pumped lol only to find out that it only applies if you book through them and not a 3rd party like expedia.com, priceline.com, kayak.com, etc. Our assigned room was E4 and it was very spacious for my family of 4. They had little areas of the rooms that needed minor repairs, but it did the job. Unfortunately, the flash flood and tornado warning got us locked up spending majority of our vacation in our room plus the whole coronavirus scare. The TVs have basic cable and a dvd player. A lot of lighting, full size fridge and stove plus pots/pans, utensils, dish rack, and cleaning materials. Our room had a king size bed and a sofa bed, nice little patio that led out to the little courtyard with one of those lame sports like cricket or bocce lol. There are 3 different pools and 2 jacuzzis. There are probably other amenities, but we didn't get to explore too much due to the weather. The staff are very nice and helpful. They have unassigned parking stalls available. This place is located across the Sheraton Coconut Resort and the beach. And right next to the Coconut Marketplace where there are restaurants, bar, and some shops are located. I would definitely come back here if we ever visited Kauai again.

    1972 called and wants their timeshare back! WHAT A DUMP!!!!! Let's just say we got duped when we booked what we thought would be a great week on the beautiful island of Kauai. How could anyone with a conscience let human beings stay in a "crap hole" like this. And this is no exaggeration! Carpet, tile & drapes from 40 years ago, a stove that you would see in a 50's movie and the so-called balcony looks out at bushes you can't see over with the busiest road on the island right behind it...noise all day & night long. You can feel every spring in the mattresses on both beds and the pullout couch is like sleeping on the floor. All I can say is RUN! Faraway. Don't look back & don't pass go! Living on the streets is better than this awful place. Please continue your search. Mahalo!

    Mold

    BUGS! This place is absolutely disgusting. Filthy! Has not been cleaned in years. Literally mold dripping from the ceiling on the walls in the bathroom. Horrible smell. I got a refund and the management was not even surprised. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

    From the perspective of a lifetime Hilton loyalist who has stayed in many Hilton Garden Inns in my…read moretime, this is better than most. It has all of the requisite HGI necessities such as clean, standardized rooms, available breakfast made to order, and a price point that does not break the bank compared to big resorts on Kaua'i. I had a comfortable stay here with easy parking, a comfortable room, and good wi-fi. It doesn't hurt that you can see the ocean from some rooms and that the property grounds have some unexpected nice touches such as a koi pond water feature, a spacious airy lobby open to the outside, and easy self parking for a fee. In this genre of Hilton portfolio hotel, it hits a bit above its expected weight. What keeps it in the 4-star range (instead of 5) is its location. It is relatively near Lihue and the airport (about a 12-15 min drive) but far from any of the major resort spots that Kaua'i is really known for (like Poipu or Princeville). Its location is just a couple of minutes drive outside of Kapa'a and if you are not looking for a high end vacation resort experience, this will suffice as a place to lay your head with confidence while helping you respect a moderate budget. It is not cheap by most HGI standards but it is reasonable by local Kaua'i lodging standards. A rental car is a must if you choose to stay here because there really is nothing around you within easy or safe walking distance. That is a problem if you are here to be a tourist and see some sights and places that The Garden Isle is known for. It is this location that keeps the pricing here down but the inconvenience factor high. I liked this property for what it was and I would stay here again if my reason for coming to Kaua'i was for anything other than a higher end resort experience. I'm sure there are even cheaper places to stay on this island but then again, I don't think that the Salvation Army has a loyalty program or a koi pond.

We were locked out of our room (cottage 3121) for forty five minutes yesterday, because the battery to the outside door lock died. Then, later that evening, we had to call maintenance again because the inside lock is broken. 4/30/26: we decided the price was not worth this crap hole. When we went to check out and cancel our week reservation, they didn't even try to remedy any situation. We are Diamond Hilton member's and there are pretty much zero perks for us loyal customers. Still had to pay $25 a day for parking! Like....come on. Pro: bed was comfy We ended up booking a airbnb instead. So we'll be paying a little more for our trip, but its worth it.

We arrived early in the day so we're not able to get into our room but the staff held our luggage and recommended a few places to eat and watch football. Once able to get into our room which was on the 3rd floor looking over the pool area but far enough away from the noise. The room was quite large with a great kitchen area with granite counter tops and nice appliances. Also a large bathroom with tub and separate shower area as well as two toilets. It was a one bedroom. There was a small lanai off the bedroom and you could open the sliding door from the living room. There was also a washer/dryer in the room. The view from the room looked over the whole pool area which has a winding pool that you can walk around over to the main pool. They also had gas grills to use and many people did. One note is if you open the sliding door in the living room area and don't match up the line in the top of the doors, the air conditioning doesn't go on. We thought the air conditioning quit. After calling the front office someone came within an hour. Told us about the line. We also had an issue with the washer and after a call to the front desk a maintenance person was there within an hour. The staff we interacted with were very friendly and very helpful. Giving us recommendations for a place for fresh fish to grill. There is also a small restaurant which we tried a few nights for some drinks and appetizers. The views of the ocean are great. There are also chairs to sit on the beach area and enjoy the water. The beach is not large but very clean and nice to relax at. There is a shopping center across the street to buy things for the condo. We will stay here again next time in the area.

Unfortunately, the service and overall guest experience did not match the luxury price tag. The arrival experience was confusing. The valet area is congested, there was no one directing guests when we arrived, and it took several minutes before anyone acknowledged us. There is also no clearly marked front desk, so we weren't sure where to check in. everyone else was greeted with a kukui nut lei except for us before sitting down for check in. not that we wanted it since we live in Hawaii but we felt like we were treated like outcasts. We had ants in our room both nights of our stay. The first night they were on the countertop, and the second night they were throughout the carpet as well. There are no ice machines, and three employees we asked could not tell us how to get ice. We eventually learned that guests must call and have it delivered to their room. Signage throughout the property is poor. Other guests had to direct us to the beach, and it was difficult to find the adults-only pool. Families should also know there are no lifeguards on duty. hours are not posted. we had to ask about the hours for the pool and the weight room. While the setting is beautiful, the lack of organization, communication, and attention to detail left us disappointed. For the price, we expected a much better experience. the only saving grace was the beautiful gym that was open 24 hrs.

Walking in to the lobby felt like we were at a premium resort and definitely put us in the right mood. There's a bar and Hukilau Lanai right in the lobby. You can make reservations through Open Table for the restaurant. There's no valet that I saw when we pulled up or a bellboy to help with your bags. Or at least, I didn't see one or ask for one. The check-in process was normal, but after checking in, you are directed to go see the Concierge. I waited a good 15 minutes just to find out that since I'm a member, he doesn't have access to my account and was asked to come back in the morning to talk to someone that does. I wish that all Shell properties would stop this practice altogether. It's already enough that we spent hours traveling to this beautiful property and want to get to our rooms to unwind and freshen up. We do not have time to sit through some kind of pitch. Because I didn't see the Concierge the next morning, they sent me a text and also placed a door tag on my door to remind me to come see them. First off, you're on vacation and do not want to spend an hour or two sitting through some kind of pitch or upsell. I don't know what the point of the wristbands was for, besides not having to carry the room key with you, it was pointless. So I would ignore going to the Concierge altogether. I don't know what was in the Welcome package and didn't want to fall in to that trap, so I just ignored having to go see the Concierge. The property grounds had 1 large pool, 2 smaller 1.5' deep pools and a jacuzzi. There were also a couple of grills and a bar by the pool, which was great. And I saw them being used throughout our stay. There's a nice walkway to other properties or to the beach. Unfortunately, there's no beach access right on the property. Parking was free and you didn't have to hang any parking permit on the car. One big drawback is that there are no elevators. So you'll have to lug all of your items up the stairs. We stayed on the 3rd floor and had our luggage and stuff we bought at Costco. I wished they would have turned on the A/C in the hallways to help with the heat. It was stuffy by the time we got to the top floor. Luckily, the A/C in our room was working well. Our suite was nice and big with all of the amenities needed for our stay. We even did some laundry on our last day and there were 2 packs of detergent provided. We had bath & pool towels in the room. WiFi was just ok, it wasn't the fastest being at 20mbps up and down. It's fine for 2 people, but could bog down with more devices. One of the best things about this location is it's right across the street from the Coconut Marketplace. You'll be able to find pretty much anything you need there. We stopped by here on our way out to Waimea Canyon and also picked up dinner at the store in the deli area. Was also able to grab some souvenirs and shopping on our last day. We've only stayed at Poipu our last 2 visits, but would definitely come back here again. If you decide to come here, ignore going to the Concierge please and don't believe that you need to get their wristbands. We were able to walk around the property and nobody stopped us.

The pool area and all the landscaping is especially lovely. All the staff we interacted with were very nice, especially when I lost an item and the front desk gave us a call later for a status update. Parking is easy and convenient, and the Coconut Marketplace with ABC store within walking distance really made this location awesome with easy access to shops, grocery, and food. We really missed the convenience later in the trip at another resort. Downtown Kapaa is also a short drive or walk away. The lack of elevators is a major downside at this location, however. For our party, staying three floors up with no elevators was inconvenient but doable, but for others it could be impossible so please be aware and call ahead if this is an issue for you. I did hear that the resort will be undergoing a renovation soon, and I sincerely hope elevators are a priority.
