Holomakani Retreat: Your Ohana's Hale (Home) by Kaanapali Beach
Nestled within the inviting KAANAPALI VISTA community, amidst 35 thoughtfully designed homes, our Holomakani Retreat invites you to embrace the island's aloha spirit. The two-story hale provides panoramic nānā (views) of the mesmerizing moana (ocean), with the islands of Lanai and Molokai gracefully punctuating the horizon. Each sunrise and sunset paints this abode with hues of paradise, while the whispering tradewinds bring stories of ancient Hawai'i. A step outside introduces you to native flora, the scent of plumeria in the air, and the rhythmic dance of palm trees, transporting you to an island time where moments move slower, and memories are etched deeper. For added relaxation, dive into the refreshing waters of our newly-added in-ground pool, or soak in the warmth of a cozy heated SPA.
A gentle poholo (stroll) takes you to the heart of Whalers Village, with doors opening to renowned Kaanapali hotels, the lively Dig Me Beach, quaint boutiques, and a range of ono (delicious) dining venues. Holomakani offers families the chance to share stories, laughter, and aloha under one roof, providing an alternative to the added expense of booking separate condos or rooms.
About the Home: Holomakani Retreat, with its 4 welcoming bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, is a sanctuary for families. Admire the vast ocean and vistas of Lanai and Molokai from this island noho (abode), adorned with authentic Hawaiian-themed artwork.
Key Features:
A master suite that cradles you in comfort with a King bed.
A suite offering the embrace of a queen bed and twin beds.
A separate bedroom, perfect for moments of hiamoe (sleep) with a queen bed.
A refreshed kuke (kitchen) filled with modern appliances.
Central A/C (Split systems) ensuring cool, restful nights.
A new bathroom on the lower level.
Spacious lanais, where memories are framed against breathtaking views.
A pool and a heated SPA, designed for family bonding and relaxation.
Amenities: This hale is furnished with everything your ohana (family) might need. From essential kuke (kitchen) tools to entertainment provisions such as LCD TVs and internet connectivity, we've got you covered. Dive deeper into island experiences with available snorkel gear, boogie boards, golf clubs, and keiki (children) toys.

Location was perfect and the pool was a nice addition for the kids when we were beached out. The only downfall was the washing machine did not work so we ran out of towels.

This house is pure Maui charm. It is an older house, but it is clean, well stocked, close to everything and has a pool. We have 7-people and an 18-month old baby with us. We absolutely loved the place. The owner, Lee, is very responsive if you have any questions or an issue. We did have a plumbing issue and notify the owner. Someone was there within an hour and fixed the issue.
The house was a great place to use as our home base for this vacation. We would definitely rent it again!

We enjoyed our stay. The property is located in a great area. The pool and spa were great. The spa programs took a few minutes to figure out but were worth the effort. We really enjoyed the spacious common rooms upstairs and the screened porch. The basement bedrooms could use a little updating but the beds were comfortable and the air conditioning worked well. We had an issue with the washing machine but were still able to use it with small loads. In all, we thought it had charm and good usable space for our family.

What a wonderful home. Everything we needed for our family of 8 (6 adults and 2 children). We all loved the pool and hot tub; grandkids spent hours in there!! Perfect location. We walked to Whaler’s Village; close to Kaanapali and easy drive to Lahaina!! Bruce was easy to get ahold of if we had a question or needed something. Perfect family vacation.

This house was very comfortable for our family vacation including 3 couples and one toddler. It was the perfect size space for us. The house was clean and as pictured/advertised. The location was nice, about a 10-15 minute walk to the beach, and we had enjoyed using the boogie boards and other beach toys.

We really enjoyed the home we stayed in on Maui. It would have been a 5 star if they had finished the pool and spa in time for our family to use it. It was close to being finished. It was in a nice and quiet neighborhood and had fantastic ocean views. It had lots of furnished upstairs dining and viewing areas which were awesome. Once the pool and spa are ready we will request this VRBO again. Also, it's practically on a beautiful golf course. It was stocked with lots of in door games and out door toys. It was close to Whaler's Village, which was great!

Pros: Comfortable home with panoramic view of Lanai, some ocean and beautiful sunsets. Situated close to Kaanapali resort and Whaler's village. Owner responded promptly to questions and problems. Lots of beach toys for the children. Beds were very comfortable.
Cons: advertised swimming pool was being redone and not functional. Owner did reimburse some of rental fee due to said absence. One good beach chair and others were pretty beat up. Cockroaches in ground level living areas.

The property was in a great location and a very nice home. Would definitely have given it 5 stars but unfortunately the pool wasn't finished yet. Otherwise we had an amazing time and would definitely stay there again.

The location of this home is great and it’s a short walk to the beach.
The house was comfortable and it will be fun to enjoy the pool when it’s finished. Bruce was a wonderful host answering any and all questions very quickly. Check in was a breeze.
