Plantation Inn

Top choice in Lahaina


Alohas are warm at this genteel oasis, which is set back from the hustle and bustle of Lahaina’s waterfront. Modern amenities blend seamlessly with plantation-era decor inside the stylish rooms. Victorian-style standard rooms come with four-poster beds. The highlight? Complimentary breakfast from in-house Gerard’s served by the pool – the savory eggs Florentine are delicious. Most rooms have a lanai (porch, balcony or veranda).

The property is not on the beach, but resort privileges are provided at its sister property Kaʻanapali Beach Hotel.
