FABULOUS LOCATION - Just 50 steps to the pool, the hot tub and the BBQ’s and a few more steps to the ocean-front lounge chairs. Grab a cool drink and head out to watch the sun set between Molokai and Lanai. Bring your binoculars for excellent whale watching December to May or use the ones we supply in the condo.
CONVENIENT - Papakea Resort enjoys an outstanding Maui site and our unit is one of the very best locations within the complex. While some people may initially prefer a higher unit hoping for a view, our ground floor unit offers several advantages; the convenience of not climbing stairs or waiting for an elevator several times a day, the ability to go out your lanai door directly to the pool and ocean instead of a trip around the back of the building. The ease of access to the BBQ’s means your food stays hot on the way back to your lanai. Once people try our unit, they seldom go back to a balcony property.
TOP QUALITY - Units in Papakea vary widely in condition. They range from some units that haven’t been updated since the 80’s, to ours which was totally renovated using top quality materials and fixtures. It's frequently mentioned by repeat guest that ours is one of the very best.
• Tile floors throughout for a cool, clean, easy-care environment.
• Cabinets in kitchen and bathrooms of African mahogany accented with exotic Jarra wood. Granite counter tops complete the executive look and feeling of quality.
• This is our vacation home so the kitchen is fully equipped with all the cutlery, gadgets and tools you need.
• Entertainment center features a large flat screen Smart-TV, a DVD player, streaming video for your NetFlix, YouTube or similar account. CD player with iPod dock for your music. Each bedroom also has a TV. All enjoy Spectrum Cable TV services.
• Master suite features a king bed, large vanity with double sinks, a large tiled shower with double shower heads and a “washlet” style toilet popular in upper-class Japanese households.
• Latest technology zone air conditioning. This allows each bedroom and the living room/kitchen to be cooled independently. This not only saves on the environment by allowing less use of the A/C but ensures you can quickly cool your sleeping area for a good night’s rest.
• Second bedroom features a queen bed plus a twin bed. Washroom has a tiled shower and vessel style sink.
• Free wireless internet access throughout the resort.
• All linens including large beach towels are provided.
This is our vacation home, so appliances, kitchenware and amenities are being constantly replaced or upgraded to ensure everyone, renters and owners, enjoy their vacation.
PEACEFUL AND BEAUTIFUL - Papakea is a quiet, well-maintained, family friendly resort that offers the peaceful beauty and an oceanfront location that is the reason people come to Hawaii.

Lahaina town is a short 10 minute drive away with the shops and restaurants of Whalers Village half way between.
ACTIVITIES - Lots to do in and around Papakea. The resort features lighted tennis and pickleball courts for guest use, a large well maintained putting green in the central park area right outside your door and various pool and exercise activities such as yoga and fitness instruction in the pool area. (currently on hold due to Covid). Tour arrangements can ...

Stayed here for a week with our family of 5. The unit was very comfortable and felt like a second home. The ground floor access was convenient since the pool and ocean were only steps away without needing to take an elevator. The grounds were very well maintained and orderly. We will likely look for the same unit if we return to Maui again. One discrepancy was that the listed resort fee in the description was actually $25/day instead of $17/day.

We had a wonderful stay. The property was clean and comfortable. There was snorkel gear and beach chairs, which was super helpful. Loved the location. Walking distance to stores. The only downside to the property was that although the ocean was a couple hundred yards away from the condo, the beach was non-existent. In order to get good beach access, we needed to walk to the adjacent property. It wasn't horrible, but I little bit of a bummer.

This property exceeded our expectations. The condo had everything our family needed: fully stocked kitchen, beach chairs, beach umbrellas, air conditioning, nicely updated kitchen and baths. There was snorkel equipment as well, but we rented our own to use for the week. Being on the ground floor was great; we could sit on the patio for a cocktail in the evening or morning coffee. We are a family of 5 and it was perfect because the second bedroom had both a queen and a twin bed. Papakea is in a great location. It was quick and easy to get to Whalers Village, Lahaina and Kapalua. We visited several amazing beaches within 15 min drive. We could walk to Times grocery store, an ABC Store, food trucks and more. The beds were comfortable, and there were no issues with noise. The grounds of Papakea are well maintained. Tiki torches are lit every night, plenty of grills available to use. We also noticed the workers thoroughly cleaning the grills each day. The owner of this unit was responsive to my questions ahead of our stay. The whole experience was smooth and I highly recommend this property!

Arrival and check-in was a breeze. Property is beautiful, and the condo itself is great, just as described! Unfortunately, we lost power and all communications due to the wildfires in Lahaina and surrounding area. The property staff did the best they could under the circumstances, and we are forever grateful for them. Thank you to the Host for communicating with us during this difficult stay, and offering his services to make us as comfortable as possible. We were fortunate to get out of the area after just a few days there, but our hearts and prayers are with Maui and it's people. We don't know if/when we will be able to come back to Maui, but if/when we do, I will definitely consider staying here again, hoping for a better overall experience. Mahalo!!

We loved having a 1st floor condo…made it so easy to come and go to the pool, hot tub and for sitting in the lawn chairs along the sea wall to watch the waves crash. Excellent experience with this property!
