Only concern was that there were a lot of fruit flies in our unit. Did not experience that in the 4 other units our family stayed in.

We had a great week in Maui. Connie and Dave were awesome to work with. Easy communication. The condo was as described. Great location. Easy access to grocery stores and food choices. We walked many times for places to eat. Restaurants across the street and to the right of the resort were a variety of food trucks. We saw whales every day of our stay and were lucky enough to have monk seals playing right in front of us one late afternoon, and sea turtles swim by. Highly recommend

We had a wonderful stay. The condo was beautifully decorated and very well stocked. The location has a really nice tropical breeze and being first floor is extremely convenient.

We very much enjoyed the resort. The check-in process was easy even when we arrived late at night. Pools, BBQs and grounds of resort are very well kept. We participated in the lei making offered there and took morning walks along the beach next to the property. As for the unit, the owner was very accommodating and quick to reply. They offered great advice about what to do in the area and great direction about the property and Maui for a first time guest. The unit was outdated compared to many other units our friends had stayed in while we were there. My only suggestion would be to offer more than 6 place settings/cutlery, we found we were doing dishes constantly. There were also tons of fruit flies in the bathroom shower/sink area and around the kitchen sink.

The location and amenities of the condo were great. Our hosts were excellent, responses to inquiries were very quick and we were able to check in early. We spent an excellent week in Maui and this location was convenient for beaches and places to eat/shop.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay for the first part of our honeymoon. Listing on VRBO is accurate for the property and things are spelled out clearly with the resort fee that is to be anticipated at check in. The grounds were nice and the environment is relaxing. This seems to be one of the more updated and nicer units on the property in our opinion. We enjoyed our time here and would not hesitate to send friends here.

We loved our stay at Papakea! This unit was very convenient being on the ground floor. The A/c unit was helpful but didn’t cool off the bedroom very well. The gear provided was super helpful. Would have been nice to have a snorkel set in the unit. The beds were very comfortable! Overall we had a wonderful time and enjoyed our stay!

We loved this resort! Not too big, not too small. Perfect. Our room had everything we needed.The grass outside was so soft for barefoot walking and lawnchairs to watch the whales everyday. We would definitely stay at Papakea again!

Connie’s condo was perfect for our time in Maui. This is the first time we stayed in Kaanapali area and loved it. The condo is as described and the resort is beautifully maintained and so comfortable. The owner Connie communicates in a timely and supportive manner. We would highly recommend this rental and hope to stay there again on our next trip to Maui.

We loved Connie and Dave’s place. The ground floor lanai was delightful to have coffee in the morning and drinks in the evening. And being able to walk right out onto the grounds, a short 2 min walk to the water…perfect. We also appreciated the extras like beach chairs, cooler and umbrella we could use for the beach. Saved us lots of money buying those things. Easy checkin and check out, ample parking, clean, comfortable condo at an affordable price. We’d stay here again no doubt if we ever get the chance to come back to Hawaii!

We had an excellent time staying at Connie and Dave’s apartment. The resort isn’t huge but well equipped with everything you may want including shuffle board, daily activities and a wonderful pool / hot tub setup with beach access. The apartment was exactly as featured and well equipped - we made good use of the boogie board and beach chairs. Connie could not have been more accommodating - quick to respond, helping us move our reservation due to Covid and even allowing us to check in early. I would most definitely recommend this VRBO to anybody.

This location was central and amazingly quiet to celebrate a family birthday. We were looking for a condo to base our Maui vacation and this condo was beautifully decorated and well equipped. We had everything we needed from beach supplies to every kitchen gadget needed to have a bbq on the deck. Maui sunsets and paradise awaits right outside the patio door. Would certainly book at this location again when we head to Maui again. Thank you for opening your doors for us and into your paradise.

Gosh, I don’t know where to start! Honestly, great experience from the get go. After traveling from PDX, arriving at Papakea around mid night.. i was praying for an easy check in experience and that’s exactly what I got. Everything on the property is beautiful, clean, peaceful, and has many signs with the right description/directions. As for my hosts, also amazing. Loved how helpful they were with trip tips, things in the area to do (first timers), our place had plenty of towels, pillows, blankets, and beach equipment. Having a washer and dryer in the unit, nicely hidden too.. was sooo convenient and helpful. We had very quiet/peaceful nights.. the view was amazing too. Overall we just had a great stay and we will absolutely stay there again.

Second year in a row staying at Papakea. Overall a beautiful condo resort

Papakea is a nice, quiet resort. This room does the job if you need a place to stay. Faucet handle seemed broken, dishwasher wasn't set properly and slides out of cabinet, oven missing drawers and bugs in the kitchen everyday. I didn’t spend much time in the room, so it worked for the time being, but appliances are definitely outdated and place needs some work.

The outside of the property looked even better than it did in the pictures. The unit itself was as described and met our needs. I would absolutely stay here again. There's a grocery store and restaurants across the street which is super convenient.

Very clean lovely condo. Had beach chairs, cooler and other items to use. Beautiful garden unit. Enjoyed the sunsets every night.

Property was clean and had everything we needed. The air conditioner is in the front room so the bedroom can get a little warmer but there is a ceiling fan that was nice.

The property was clean but smaller than anticipated and the pictures were very misleading. We rented two properties at Papakea Resort and both of them had stock photos from Papakea that showed a few steps down to a nice wide beach. Since we picked it primarily for proximity to the beach we were very disappointed that there was no beach at all! We also had a problem with the concierge service the resort offers - somehow between them and the activity we booked our reservation was cancelled. We don't know whose end this occurred on but the activity claimed Blue Hawaiian cancelled it and they claimed they didn't. Bottom line for us - no activity.

My friends and I loved this vrbo - it is a comfortable and clean space with wonderful resort amenities. The location is excellent - within close walking distance of some convenience stores and restaurants. Connie was a great, communicative host. We definitely recommend this place!

I came here with my 9 year old daughter as a post 4th grade graduation, post surviving the pandemic celebration. We had a fabulous trip and this condo was perfect for us. We weren’t able to rent a car but this condo had such a Great location that it didn’t bother us at all. Very close to the bus stop so we could get to Kanapali beach in 5-10 minutes. Also waking distance to a great public beach, grocery shopping, snorkel rentals, nail salon, food trucks... everything we needed. We even took the bus to Kapalua Bay for snorkeling. It was so nice to have the beach chairs, beach towels, boogie board and umbrella all there for our use. They even had bug spray which we had forgotten to pack! Very convenient to be able to have breakfast at home, snacks/ lunch we could pack for the beach (they provided a cooler to use) and go out for dinner. We will definitely come back. Thank you for a 5star stay!! Much appreciated.

This property was just right for our family - good value, nice amount of space, very clean, close to restaurants, shops, and beaches, plus everything from beach chairs to sand toys were provided, which was an added bonus. The property itself is beautiful. The owners were great at communicating with us and made the stay a breeze. Would definitely recommend.

I like having a real kitchen with a microwave and refrigerator. Having the ABC store in front which serves hot food was also nice. The area is clean and well kept. Advertising an ocean front view was deseiving. There are also several hidden fees, $150 cleaning fee, $60 service fee, $17 day resort fee.I didn't like having the AC in the front unit and having to use fans to guide the cooler air to the bedroom was frustrating.



June 2019
My partner and I had a great stay here! The unit had everything we needed and really appreciated the extras such as beach chairs, cooler, umbrellas, beach towels, etc. The unit was clean. The air conditioning was great to have! The owner was easy to communicate with and was quick with replies. The property was beautiful and well maintained, quiet and relaxing, and not so busy that you had to fight for lawn chairs. The beach out front was swimmable with some snorkeling as well. Wonderful stay and would 100% go back.
