We had a really nice stay at Waimea Plantation Cottages. We had a one bedroom, ocean front cottage that was great. It was the perfect size for a couple, and we really enjoyed having a small kitchen to prepare some of our own meals and having the covered patio where we had coffee each morning. It was also nice having our own lawn chairs where we could sit in the sun. The property was beautiful and it was nice to be able to walk right to the beach (good beach for walking, maybe not swimming). It's a perfect location if you want to spend a couple days exploring Waimea Canyon and Koke'e State Park. It was also 5 minutes from the Kikialo small boat harbor where we launched from for a Na Pali Coast boat tour which was nice. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and they had a lot of amenities available to guests for free. I would definitely stay here again.

The cottages are original and are full of charm, wood floors, wooden doors, original door handles, and lots of nook and cranny’s. If you are looking for a crowded touristy resort this is not it. I so enjoyed the peace and quiet. The lanai was large and spacious and the space in between cottages is good. Restaurant on site was very good.

My only complaint is one of us had to sleep on the rattan couch and it was very uncomfortable, even to sit in was not the best.

For someone like me, such accommodation is just the thing! You have a hut all to yourself, without trampling neighbors in the next room or above you, it is clean and quiet. It is a very spacious, wonderfully green and well-kept hotel complex right by the sea. I also liked the bar, the food was delicious. Also an ideal starting point for trips to the state parks.

In view of the wonderful peace and quiet, insignificant little things: The kitchen could have been equipped with a few more things, such as salt and pepper, baking paper. I was also missing a kettle. The back door was stuck.

The property is a traditional cottage on a large estate with a lot of open space and beautiful trees. The cottages are well spaced out and have verandahs with, in our case, a lovely view of the ocean. The accommodation is comfortable but unpretentious and the location of the estate is excellent for excursions to the Waimea Canyon and the Na Pali coast. There were fruitful mango trees on site. The staff were courteous and helpful.

can’t think of anything. the smoke detector alarm was located beside one of the bathrooms and went off if the door was left open after a shower - but we soon learned to keep the door shut and all was well. The beach has black sand and the sea tends to be brown from the nearby river water but there is a pleasant pool on site and plenty of yellow sand beaches nearby.

Reserved a room here to get a remote area where we could watch the meteor shower. This place exceeded our expectations. This was a beautiful little cottage right on the beach. IT was quaint but it was everything we needed. No, this is not the Marriott but it was so much more. We walked out the front door of the cottage and walked right up to the beach. There were so many stars in the sky and there was no light pollution anywhere. We will definitely return again

I don't believe there was anything that we didn't like. It was close to town and the trail. IT was just what we wanted.

Charming collection of old cottages on site fronting a quiet beach. The cottages are all slightly different, but well equipped, comfortable and clean. It is charming and understated . The details on the Booking.com site really undersell the property. There are beautiful sunsets and the grounds are lovely to walk in. The property does have an independently run restaurant and bar on site. Close to the Waimea Canyon, so you can get a morning head start on other visitors.

Nothing really

The proprety is stunning, in a beautiful setting on the oceanfront. You have everything you need within a 20 min drive, but just for all the essentials, Waimea town is sufficient. There is a taco place simply out of this world within a 10 min walk. Very calm, quiet, and the most amazing evenings we had in Hawaii

You cant really swim in the ocean because the water is really murky and the currents are strong. So even if you stay on the seafront, if u wanna swim, you have to go to another beach, or use the swimming pool. The cabin itself was a little outdated, doorknobs weren't working proprerly, old style fixed metal shower with a shower curtain from the 80s, electric wall sockets far away from the bed (4 star complex i remind you) and considering they dont have housekeeping, after a few days you have sand and leaves everywhere, no matter how careful you are. The on site restaurant makes a deacent pizza, but honestly we prefered cooking ourselves or eating elsewhere. Very expensive, but you pay the location and the setting

Laid back and super clean. Loved the simplicity of the cottages yet seemed elequent as if were "top o the line" from an era gone by. So many places we stay (AirBB, etc) like to show off their "trinkets & decor" that it leaves no room to unpack your own items. All the rooms were spacious and very well maintained.

The town of Waimea seemed somewhat depressed. Many businesses closed or run down. Don't know if was seasonal or permanent.

We chose the location to be close to the Canyon, be mindful that there is not much else around, we enjoyed the absence of tourism. Cute cottages, very friendly service, beautiful grounds. Has a fully equipped kitchen in the cottage and a guest laundry in the grounds. Aircon and ceiling fans in every room, cute deck to sit on.

Cottage was a little dated and one of the aircons smelled a little funky.

It was peaceful and quiet. The grounds were well kept. The trees, palms and flowers were nice. The spacing of the cottages was good for privacy. Parking was good. One front desk clerk in particular, she was welcoming, attentative and courteous. The beach is nice for strolls and the sunsets were beautiful.

No good dining on the resort or nearby. The restaurant there never opened on time. Not enough beach lounger to supply guests, which is included in the resort fee. The washer did not work properly so the wash alone took over an hour.
