Please read this before you book. The following is in reference to the Lahaina fires.
To my guests staying with me in 2023:
Due to the Lahaina Fires you can cancel for a full refund (see below) anytime prior to arrival. For 2024 guests the standard policy applies.
The Governor of Hawaii announced last week that West Maui will open to visitors on October 8, 2023. Some will say that’s too soon and some will say that’s too late. I don’t know but I know that businesses have opened and continue to open. Most are owned by locals and/or they employ locals. I know they cannot survive if visitors do not come and then Maui will have a second catastrophe, an economic one.
Please understand that if you come and stay with me that you will not be taking a room from a displaced family or that you will be taking resources from victims of the fire. Right after the fire, me and the owners I represent placed victims of the fire in our units free of charge. No questions. It gave them a safe place to think and they knew they would need to find a longer term solution. Most have done that. A couple still need some more time and they will have that. I will not kick them out for a paying guest, so if the unit shows available then it’s available because the family in it found a longer term solution.
A few weeks ago Rhonda and I went to Leilani's to support the cause and it was full, so we went to the Westin in Kaanapali. That was pretty full as well. As we were leaving I ran into "Fred" who lost his house in the fire. He used to work at Honua Kai but now works for another rental company. He said he's not sure if they will call him back to work but should know by October 8th. He asked if I had any work for him. That's the reality of the current situation.
What to expect:
Keep in mind everything north and south of Lahaina is intact. That said 90% of Lahaina Town is gone. So when you drive in via the Lahaina Bypass you will see some damage. Once you come down and get back on Honoapiilani Highway and go past Safeway (which is open now) you will see what you have seen on TV. It’s bad, but there’s nothing you can do but support those people now.
Depending on when you are coming there may still be displaced families at Honua Kai as the Resort really stepped up more than anyone else in offering temporary housing. The ones that work will be understanding and grateful, and this does not need to be said but we ...

Our second time at Honua Kai, first time in this unit. Great room with wonderful view, placed right in the middle of everything. While we spent most of our time outside, the room is convenient, quiet, clean, well maintained with great appliances. The pools and lazy river are very fun and the beach and snorkeling are fantastic. We saw sea turtles every day. We will definitely be back.
