Frommer's "This historic two-story wooden inn is rather modest for its price, especially compared with Yosemite’s Ahwahnee and the grand lodges of other national parks." Full review

Gayot "If canopy beds, hardwood floors, turn-of-the-twentieth-century architecture and elegant French dining are right up your alley, then we highly recommend the eighteen-room Plantation Inn."
DK Eyewitness "Steps from the waterfront, this charming inn combines plantation style with modern convenience. Romantic island- style guest rooms have lānai (verandas); suites have kitchenettes."
Fodor's "Ten minutes from the beach, this tropical plantation-era inn is a fine value for those who want to be in the heart of the action." Full review
Travel + Leisure "This is where to stay if you want to be walking distance from Front Street, but still have a quiet place to sleep." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "With a plantation-style look, complete with porches on both stories of the building, this inn lives up to its name." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The 18-room adults-only bed and breakfast is located in the heart of historical Lahaina Town, less than a block from the ocean"
