I recently stayed at a vacation rental in Kannapali, West Maui, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The large lanai offered stunning views that took my breath away every morning. The beachfront property boasted multiple pools and jacuzzis, providing the perfect relaxation spots. The amenities were top-notch, making the stay even more enjoyable. Additionally, its proximity to the nearby food truck park, Whalers Village, and the convenience of having Duke's Restaurant on the property were huge bonuses. Overall, it was an incredible getaway filled with luxury and convenience.

It is a beautiful place to see paradise, clean, good location, friendly staff, and steps to the beach.
The bathroom was a bit dark and the sofa cushions could use a refresh.
Would I stay here again absolutely!

Loved our stay ! Kaanapali is a beautiful location/beach. The view from the deck was amazing and we loved eating breakfast out there watching the ocean. Very clean unit, everything worked great, no complaints!

My husband and I stayed here on our honeymoon and loved our time! The unit is spacious, clean and well equipped with what you need, and the outdoor space and views are a major selling point! The resort is beautiful, with a great restaurant and access to the beachwalk for strolls. The beach chairs were great to have for afternoons at the beach! My only recommendation for anyone staying is to bring beach towels. Trying to get towels through the resort was a hassle and the ones we could get were more like small bath towels.

We appreciated the welcoming, perfectly outfitted condo in such a central spot for exploring Maui. As this was our first trip back to the island as empty-nesters, we love that the Honua Kai has space for both families and couples looking for a quieter experience. We loved that the condo has a generous deck with amazing ocean views away from the busy pools. We spent quiet mornings enjoying the view and planning our day. The management company's frequent and clear communication made check-in and check-out extremely easy. We really appreciated the thoughtful amenities like coffee, beach chairs, and even a soft-sided cooler. We can't wait to return.

Great place, location, parking. Nice amenities with multiple things to do. Dukes restaurant was great - we ate both in and had carry out. Unit was very clean and we loved the lanai’s lounges.

We were only able to stay a few days, and would happily have stayed longer. The condo is beautiful and comfortable. The kitchen and appliances are high end. We loved the large lanai with multiple seating options, and the view of the water is better than expected. We loved our stay.

We stayed at this property for 2 weeks in February. The unit was exactly as shown in the photos - maybe better! It truly is an ocean view (whales seen everyday from the balcony) and a mountain view (those west Maui mountains are gorgeous!). The kitchen was well stocked, and everything in the unit was spotless. The bathroom was very large and the shower is larger than it appears in the photos. There are 2 closets in the bedroom, which was great! I might suggest adding a few more hangers ;). The description of the unit says there is no safe, but there is a safe on the floor of one of the closets. The lanai is huge!!! There were a couple of afternoons that I spent in one of the lounge chairs catching some rays, and it was wonderful. It's covered enough to be out there when it rains, but faces the sun as well. The fully opening wall makes you feel so fancy!
As for the property, it is very nice. We spent most days by the pool because it was so windy while we were there, going to the beach would have been a sandblast experience. But, we did utilize the beach chairs that are in the unit and spent one glorious day on the beach. The service at the pool is through Duke's, and could be better. The menu is limited, but tasty. I'd recommend maybe buying stuff and eating lunch in the room (saves a bit of money too :) ).
We had a great time!!

Was impressed with quality of rental. We have stayed at this resort many times and would rate this as being the nicest as far as fit and finish. Oftentimes the carpet is very worn or has spots in these rentals. Not this one. It was immaculate. If this was for sale I'd look into buying it.

Charged smoking fee when we did NOT Smoke.. there is a designated area. WHY would we smoke IN the condo if there are alarms? I AM A CANCER patient and am allowed to have marijuana in my person. What was burning was some Nag champa incense... it did seem weird that the master room was closed off. Place could have been cleaned a lil better. We've stayed at Honua Kai a few times with this being the last using VRBO.. what was supposed to be a Break in Treatment...turned into 500 dollars more than we expected.

Unit was clean and very roomy. As noted in other reviews, it’s actually a 2 bdrm, but rented as 1 (door to other bdrm is locked) so you have a larger living area which is a plus. Room has beach chairs, coolers, etc. as well. For those that can’t stand bar hand soap, they also supplied liquid hand soap (another plus in my book). AC is definitely fixed (from prior review). Just two things to note, there are no wine glasses in the unit and the view is more garden view vs an ocean view, although you do have a fairly good view of the ocean. Would definitely stay here again.

AC was not working during our stay. After multiple requests to have it addressed, the unit was fixed towards the end of our stay, but still wasn't functioning well. When we brought this issue up with the management they were very dismissive. Outside of the AC issue the condo was nice, but customer service was lacking. Given all the other options near by I would not stay here again.

Sitting on the large patio with my coffee, looking at the ocean at 7:15am and seeing a whale breach. The condo was well equipped and well maintained, and the property managers were very responsive. You will enjoy your time there!

High end property, appliances, extras, comfortable bed, super quiet unit on top floor. Spacious unit and large lanai with ocean views. Convenient underground parking. Property is perfect on kaanapali beach walk steps from beach. Dukes and pools are the cherries on top. I am a picky traveler and this place is ideal. Book it. Trust me!

In our opinion there isn’t a better place to stay location wise. Great property that is super clean and has all the amenities you will need. Shopping and restaurants are only 10 minutes away and the beaches are some of the best on the island. We are already booking our next trip back!

Would def stay here again. Very clean and well maintained. We loved staying at Honua Kai again. The property has wonderful pools and a great beach area with calm waters. The unit had everything you needed to cook and also had an umbrella, chairs, cooler, and boogie boards. I would def recommend this place and the property management company Maui Westside Properties.

This property is great for the value. It includes a lot of amenities that you would normally receive at a resort (oceanfront location, parking, onsite concierge and dining, pools, etc). My only criticism is that the complex was packed with people. Duke's, the on-site bar & restaurant, was understaffed and super overwhelmed. It was hard to receive service and the food was not very good. It was also challenging to get spots at the pool because all chairs were taken and the cabanas/casabellas reserved (although we didn't see anyone occupying them). It could have been the time of year that we visited (high season), but it was slightly disappointing that every pool (out of the four total), felt crowded. Overall, this place is very clean, the property management company is great, and the listing is accurate although, if you're looking for a quiet place with less people, this is not for you. If you're looking for a vibrant and family oriented atmosphere, this is a perfect fit.

Our condo was very nice and also clean. We had all the kitchen utensils and pans we needed. The bed was wonderful!!
If there is any complaint it would be the grounds of the property needed better upkeep as well as the inside trash

We rented this property for a week in early May. I travel extensively and stay in a lot of hotels. Honestly I really can’t find anything to complain about. If you are looking for a couples get away at a well appointed resort in the Kanapali area this is a great one! The property is very clean and well furnished. The bed is comfortable, the bathroom is large, has a great shower and a larger than average garden tub. An air conditioning unit is installed if you don’t want a sea breeze. It was also quiet and unless I was on the lanai I could never hear any neighbors, The furnishings are up to date and comfortable. WiFi and the TV were up to date and great if you didn’t feel like going out. The kitchen and appliances were great and there is a small washing machine and dryer in the unit. The condo doesn’t directly face the ocean, rather the windows and lanai face the property across way; but as the pictures indicate, a view of the ocean isn’t difficult to find if you step out onto the lanai. The overall property / resort is excellent! The garden landscaping is well maintained. There are three or four large, well designed pools in the Honua Kai complex and some are well heated, which is helpful in the evenings. There were three or four hot tubs as well. Honua Kai consists of numerous buildings in the complex with several small stores in the lobbies which are very convienient. There is also a grocery store less than five minutes away. The complex also has a large fitness center several buildings over, with plenty of cardio equipment, excercise machines, free weights and even olympic weights. Beach access is close and convienient with plenty of small reef areas for snorkeling. Parking had access both to outside and underneath the building for no extra charge. There is construction going on, but it is NOT an issue as it is on the other side of the resort and you can’t hear or see it from the unit.

Loved the home. Nice view nicely appointed. Easy to reach Barb for anything we needed and provided with efficiency. This home could benefit from a new Dryer as the current Bosch just wasn't getting clothes dry. The resort could possibly add cushions to their beach loungers - would make the experience much more amenable and add an adult only hot tub. For the time of year we visited, lots of small children and infants in hot tubs. Pool filtration needs some work as the water was not as clear as it should be.

Just an awesome holiday in Maui. Loved the beach access and the location to do so many things. Times grocery just 10 min walk away but also so many amazing restaurants very close by. I highly recommend Hula Grill in whalers village (45 min walk). Tracy Eubank Property Manager at Maui Westside is great at ensuring your stay is nothing but seemless when you book all the way through to you flying home. Will return for sure to go back and watch the whales !! Mahalo!
