About Kiahuna Plantation
Kiahuna is known for its long stretch of white sand beach—one of the most spectacular in Kauai—and for its lush tropical gardens. 29 of the 35 acres are dedicated to native tropical plants, ponds, and orchid gardens. Some of the oldest banyan trees on the island are found here. This 333-unit development provides a tranquil sense of peace and relaxation with exotic traditional Hawaiian plantation charm.
