This place had such a great view, relaxing vibe, and location was convenient. Loved loved loved the views. Pool, hot tub, and grills are great. Communication with property management was great. Check in was a breeze. I would recommend the owner do a deep clean of the condo. When laying in bed you can see a layer of dust on the walls. I imagine this could be an issue with someone who has allergies. Overall the condo was clean but really needs a deep clean especially in those areas that you don’t clean on a regular basis.
We had a wonderful time and the stay really contributed to our vacation experience.
Yeah You! I am always on the fence when it comes to booking places based off pictures, but this place worked out great for us. Unit is looked to be upgraded to modern look, the view is nice from the balcony, Although it doesn't have a private beach, it does have water front access with great beaches within 5-10 minutes driving each direction. The unit was very clean, has great water pressure and plenty of hot water for showers. The AC units kept the unit comfortable the entire stay. The unit has just about every pot and pan needed for cooking, which we did every day, eating out in Maui is really pricey for a family of 5, but just note, the pans are a little dated and not the easiest to cook on, I would recommend the owner upgrading some of the frying pans to non stick. Another note: Stop at Walmart or Target for groceries, you will save a a lot of money, the local stores are inflated! The unit has snorkel gear, boogie boards, and other fun beach items. The TV's are a bit tricky to use, but the instructions are detailed so this helped. I would recommend day passes at the Westin for a day or so, this will give you access to many activities and beaches as well as black rock you can jump off of. As far as public beaches, go to Fleming beach, it's very close with a lot of sea life, boogie boarding and not too crowded. Overall I would stay here again, we had a nice experience. Manawa Maikai!
There isnt a bad view from anyones patio/ balcony! Beautiful unit and resort/ grounds / amenities and we used them all including pickleball, mini golf, pool, shuffleboard all while viewing the beautiful pacific ocean. Great for our adult and teen family of 8. Will stay agsin if
First My Perfect Stays were very responsive to our question. This place offered all the amenities needed…beach chairs, towels, all kitchen tools, and plenty of soaps for dishes and laundry! The location was super although the beach is only accessible via the “sister” condo next door.
The actual condo probably needs a good over haul cleaning, including probably new carpeting.
Maui is a wonderful and relaxing island!! Mahalo!
E407 has all the comforts of a fine home along with a resort that is in a class by itself. The view from the condo living room, lanai & master bedroom are fabulous ocean views. The split system HVAC allows each room to control its own temperatures plus the kitchen is stocked with all the necessities for any type of meals desired. Location, Location Location!!
Papakea was everything and more! We loved our stay- from check in- which was super smooth and easy, to the 5 nights we stayed. The place was clean, quiet and exactly how it was posted online. There were basic necessities ( beach towels, chairs, 2 coolers, umbrellas, salt , pepper, laundry pods that were available for our use) the amenities were great/ we loved the pool and jacuzzi right by the water. We spent our nights on the lawn chairs watching the sunset. We will be back papakea!
My family of four and my dad loved Papakea and our condo on the 4th floor! The accommodations were very nice, well kept place. The beds were super cozy, nice updated bathrooms, and the kitchen was well-stocked with all the utensils and necessities we needed. We especially enjoyed our coffee and cocktails on the balcony with that million-dollar view! Very nice pools, and hot tub at the end of the day. The grounds are stunning and so well-maintained. We would absolutely return to this resort. It was hard to say goodbye.
This is a lovely Hawaiian style resort - by the ocean, has lovely flowers, fishponds, pools,hottubs, BBQ grills,but not massive or loud amenities like water slides. There is good beach access and there are many options nearby for dining, shopping, and outdoor recreation. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Our unit was recently updated, had a well-equipped kitchen, and nice features like AC, comfortable beds, lots of towels, a beautiful view, and many accessories for the beach and for kids.
The unit was clean and well stocked. The grounds were well maintained.
