  • Spaces for 125 Guests

  Waimea Plantation Cottages is a 43-acre oceanfront resort on Kauai's west side, where 59 historic plantation cottages — built between the late 1880s and 1930s — are set among tropical gardens at the edge of a two-mile black-sand beach. The property has earned recognition as the #1 Wedding Venue on Kaua'i in Hawaii Magazine's Readers' Choice Awards for four consecutive years. Weddings and private events center on the historic Manager's Cottage, a 5-bedroom, 4,300-square-foot craftsman-style oceanfront home set on a wide green lawn. Ceremonies are typically held beneath the property's 100-foot-tall Banyan Tree, with receptions taking place on the lawn — al fresco under the stars or beneath an event tent complete with a dance floor. Every wedding at the property is fully customized, and couples are connected with a curated list of experienced, authorized wedding planners. The on-site Chicken in a Barrel restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and complimentary Wi-Fi and parking are available throughout the resort.
