Just about everything was great with the suite and the overall property. It should mention in the write up that there's no a/c as it's not reasonable to think people won't expect a/c in Maui (even if a/c isn't listed as an amenity, it should be stated outright) and there was no binder to provide info about the room - how to use the tv, how to use the ceiling fans, etc. Otherwise, wonderful place and wonderful trip and amazing view from the balcony.
Our family stays at Papakea over the holidays every year. The location is perfect and the views are amazing. The condo was very clean and had everything we needed. The only thing we missed was having air conditioning. There are certain times of the day that it gets unpleasant even when opening windows/doors and keeping the curtains closed. Thank you for sharing your home with us!
Great property in great location.
Fantastic condo. Best view of ocean and property grounds.
Gloria is one nice lady.
This was a very comfortable and more than expected stay. We had everything from snorkel gear, beach towels and chairs, to pickleball and tennis, to steps to beach access. The place is well kept and clean. Having a washer and dryer was super nice and made us realize we overpacked. We viewed whales from the patio, enjoyed home cooked meals and piña coladas. There are books to read and board games, too. Food trucks and a Times Market were walking distance. There are two pools and two oversized jacuzzis. Activity offering of things to do through the week including a putting tournament on Sunday. Parking was plentiful and the back entrance/exit is behind a keycard locked gate. The resort staff were friendly and helpful. They were super diligent in maintainig the property. Our host was reachable and very nice. We will definitely be back!
We greatly enjoyed our stay here. The view from the unit is endlessly engaging -- during our February visit we were lucky enough to see dozens of whales spouting and breaching just off shore throughout the week. There was also a children's hula dance lesson at the pool one afternoon which was absolutely adorable. We walked to Whalers Village and back most afternoons and had very nice meals at both Hula Grill and at Dukes. 'Got takeout from The Fish Market Maui two nights and ate at Papi's Ohana and Cruzin Cafe for breakfast. Proximity to a supermarket and to the Kaanapali Beach boardwalk/trail are so convenient -- we walked to all this stuff. Washer + dryer in unit means less luggage to haul around. Checkin with the resort was easy and communication with the host was clear and prompt -- in summary this a very nice comfortable unit in a well run resort and we look forward to returning in the future.
We loved staying in one condo. It was the perfect size, had all the amenities needed, quiet, very clean and the BEST view! We saw so many whales just sitting out on the lanai.
Thank you for sharing your home! We will definitely be back.
Lights at bbq need to turn on earlier
Lovely condo with a beautiful view of the Papakea grounds, palm trees and ocean. We were lucky to see a beautiful rainbow our last morning while having breakfast on the balcony. We even saw whales two mornings. We were happy we had taken binoculars to get a closer look. This was our second stay at this condo and really enjoy it.
Cannot give a real review because we didn't stay the whole time. But I can say the view was amazing
