This magnificent, island-style estate truly exceeds all expectations. Located on secluded Pakala's Beach on Kauai's west side, this totally serene property borders an orchard and is heavily sprinkled with mature shade trees and a variety of palms. A long driveway leads guests through a breathtaking panorama to a welcoming portico. The large, southern-style veranda looks out across an expansive landscape and a low, lava rock wall to the Pacific Ocean. This is the perfect vantage point to enjoy spectacular island sunsets.
Step through French doors to a living room lavishly decorated with antique furniture. The separate dining room is a luxurious amenity perfect for big families. A large, eat-in kitchen opens onto a deck overlooking the beautifully manicured gardens.
All bedrooms are extremely spacious and comfortably furnished. Some are actually suites and several open onto the veranda and the extraordinary vista beyond.
Befitting royalty, this impressive home invites families and friends to spend time together yet has acres of space for quiet interludes. A short drive in either direction leads to area restaurants offering a tempting variety of cuisine.
Activities nearby include seasonal swimming, snorkeling, fishing, hiking, shopping, boat tours and helicopter tours. World class surfing at Infinity's.

Great place and location photos and description very accurate. Was a bit warm but house had multiple fans to use. Chicken loved waking us up in time to start our day. Pretty much a private beach to ourselves. Highly recommended and will stay again.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were awestruck by the night sky: there were more stars visible than I ever imagined and so bright! Loved the house also. It was private with beach view and access. It was large and had great character, we would have to stay another week to really know the house as we kept discovering new things until we left. We have wonderful memories of hanging out on the late covered porch enjoying the breeze and the birds of ocean and mountains. The heat with no AC was a change for us, but there were many fans and the house is designed to use the ocean breeze for cooling.
The property was exactly as described online and the property management company was wonderful to work with. They did everything to accommodate our group and were very friendly. We absolutely loved our time at Pakala Plantation and highly recommend this property.

Reviewer Comments: We stayed for a week in April for a calm, quiet getaway at the estate. We were incredibly impressed by the historical significance, impeccable grounds, and quirky, spacious building. The true star of the property was the walking-distance proximity to the virtually private beach. There are amazing gardens to explore on the property, in addition to dozens of chickens. The one downside we experienced on several days was a significant bug issue. Certainly, the tropics should be expected to have mosquitoes, etc, but the volume of gnats was significant, day and night, likely due to the fruit trees. The property would benefit from a bug-zapper or having fly paper available for guests.
The most beautiful and best place to stay on the island. Many locals will let you know once they know you’re staying there that you are on a prized location. We caught fish from the bank every single day, the turtles fed in front of us every single day. You’ll sit on the porch every morning watching the surfers and you’ll find yourself taking surf lesson soon after. Such an amazing experience and opoa is the best to deal with. Can’t thank they’re family enough for everything!
We loved the space this property has, the privacy and access to the beach. It had everything we needed. It was comfortable, relaxing and the scenery is beautiful. It is exactly as described. Remember it is an old house:) It was perfect.

So spacious for 6 adults and 2 kids, room for I time and together time, and best of all, hours watching the surfers and sunset from the front porch. The house is completely equipped with everything needed in the kitchen and everything was comfortable and clean. The beach is private but there are always several local expert surfers to watch.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at Pakala Plantation for a week with our 4 teenage/young adult children. This was the perfect house for everyone to spread out. We enjoyed many hours (and naps) on the porch. It's a bizarre yet wonderful house that clearly holds so many memories for generations past. I felt like I was staying in my grandmother's house...old can opener mounted to the kitchen wall and metal cabinets. Straight from a different era! The house was clean and comfortable. Could used some bathroom updates - but I expect that is difficult to accomplish on an island. There is no AC, and it did get to be a little hot - especially in the afternoons. Many fans are available and we had no trouble sleeping at night due to heat (jungle fowl are a different story). We loved watching the surfers and enjoyed the peacefulness and tranquility. Hope to come back again - certainly a very special home!
The most beautiful and interesting place we have ever vacationed at. We hope to be back again someday.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: it is easy to live in Paradise on the most beautiful property in Kauai. we all had a beautiful time from age 5 to 65. The beach is close enough to be a surfers paradise the longest left in all of Hawaii, and far enough that your little ones will not venture of on their own. shopping is easy and close. the Pakala Plantation is in the heart of Kauai with locals and natives alike. Not far from any convenience either. we all had a wonderful time. The house is very well equipped, clean, and easy to maintain.

The home has a ton of space and definitely ideal for 2-3 families + a guest or two. We'll be back!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our family stay at the beautiful plantation house, this was our families 3rd time staying here over several years. It could use a few upgrades as in a new grill, the caretakers of the property were very helpful if we needed anything. Great place to stay with a large family.
What a perfect spot! Best place we’ve ever rented. Loved the privacy and charm, and the grounds are absolutely beautiful. Great amenities, with plenty of room and options for each in our party to share time and space with options to retreat to solitude as desired. A REAL vacation! Ahhh…
