Waimea Plantation Cottages embody Hawaiian life in the 1800’s, creating a quiet hotel culture against the backdrop of contemporary Hawaii. Located on the Western Coast of Kauai, close to Waimea Canyon and the Napali Coast, Waimea Plantation Cottages features a nostalgic glimpse into life on a formerly active sugar plantation with breathtaking black sand oceanfront views. Nestled on a 27-acre plantation site, the 60-cottage resort has been restored with period-inspired furniture and modern appliances. Every cottage has a full kitchen and front porch. Additionally, the Managers House situated ocean-front makes an ideal venue for weddings, family reunions and corporate events. Waimea Plantation Cottages also features amenities such as yoga and water aerobics classes, a swimming pool, BBQ rentals, an art gallery, high-speed Wi-Fi and more.
Coast Hotels has nine additional U.S. based properties in Alaska, California, Washington and Oregon, with each hotel known for its unique personality, prime location and popular amenities.
