Fodor's Expert Review Haiku Plantation Inn
555 Haiku Rd., Haiku-Pauwela, Hawaii, 96708, USA
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
Water lilies and a shade tree bedecked in orchids greet you at this forested bend in the road, where a gracious estate, built in 1870 for the plantation-company doctor, continues the healing tradition with its wellness programs. The house has been restored and retains vintage pine floors, 12-foot ceilings, and the original windows; rooms are uncluttered and charming, with private baths (one with a claw-foot tub). A cabana and barbecue area stands in a lush garden of ulu (breadfruit), lilikoi (passion fruit), and bananas.
PROS
- quiet setting
- close to restaurants, gas station, and bus stop
