Our family of four enjoyed everything about the cottage and stay in Lokoa. The owner was very kind and helpful. The accommodations were well thought out. He included beach towels and chairs, buggy boards, and fresh mangos and bananas. We loved the front porch and outdoor shower. All the locals we spoke with were friendly and helpful. We rented bikes from the e-bike place a stones throw away and had a fun ride. Poipu beach was our favorite. The ceiling fans were a godsend. We found some great local restaurants on Rice street. Kauai is a magical paradise and Montgomery’s cottage is fantastic.

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!

Paradise in paradise! This place was gorgeous from the beautiful layout and the incredible Banyon tree outside. The accessibility of the beach at the end of the road - the location was perfect - for a family of 5 this was the ultimate place to stay would absolutely come back here!

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on Pane Road due to the location and Plantation Cottage fits that bill.The Cottage itself is fine but it might be a bit outdated.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.

The Plantation Cottage near Poipu Beach is GREAT! It was perfect for our nephew, niece and their two young children, with 3 connecting bedrooms and comfy, kid-friendly living room and porch. And just a very short walk to Brennekee and Poipu beaches. A great house and great value.

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!

If you want to stay in the heart of Poipu but not have to be in a hotel/condo this is a great house option. It's small and simple but feels legit-Hawaiian in the best of the ways. Location is fantastic.

Good stay for 3 people. Easy walk to beach. Lovely sunrise and sunsets.
Plenty to do on the island.
Can be as busy or as quiet as you like to be there.
Host was very nice and fresh fruit he brought to us was much appreciated!

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.

Having returned from our holiday yesterday, last evening we were talking about the highlights of our vacation. Our stay at the Plantation Cottage was one of the best surprises we had when visiting Kauai. The house has a beautiful feel to it. Nestled in the trees, and just a few steps from the beach, it was a great place for us to relax and enjoy. We look forward to coming back.

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.

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.

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.

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!

Wow! Such a cute cottage and bigger than I expected. Really clean, really close to the beach. Plenty of fans to move the air. No AC, but it’s not really necessary. Nicely equipped kitchen, laundry and outdoor shower. Beds are comfy. My husband and I stayed here and we had a room for us, another for my mother, and a cute little room for our teen daughter. Really nice for a family.
