The Penthouse living quarters were in absolutely excellent condition with everything in the quarters that could be needed. The view from the quarters was beautiful. I would recommend this facility and will stay there again when we return.
The building and grounds around these quarters was somewhat dated and could use some paint and additional landscaping.

Room was decent … the view was amazing!
Building was run down and not appealing… other guests were straight out of a reality show which was an instant turn off… especially when the ambulance and fire trucks arrived because of the domestic violence situation. No easy access to the water as there were plastic net fences blocking off the stairs. View was amazing… the rest was mediocre at best.

Great oceanfront location- next door to a public beach which provides access to the ocean (the properties ocean access is closed and cannot be utilized). While the property itself (paki Maui) is beginning to age, this unit is well updated and contains top of the line appliances. The outdoor living is great- with 2 different balconies each containing a table and chairs and 1 including loungers. Beach chairs and a cooler are included. Both beds are comfortable with newer mattresses.
We had 1 small issue with the door lock, and it was addressed immediately.
Would stay here again, and would recommend it to friends.

The most amazing views from the balcony!! The condo is very clean and comfortable, the resort is laid back and we met a lot of very nice people. There is so much to do within walking distance or short driving distance. Guido and Gracie are very kind and gracious and the communication Was excellent. We would absolutely recommend this place and hope to be fortunate enough to come back and stay here again!

We had the very best time here. The property is right next to a park with a beautiful beach that we loved going to. The property was extremely well cared. The owner was AMAZING also. We hope to visit again soon!!!

There was a plumbing issue in our condo before we arrived but that did not affect us one bit with all of the hard work and other arrangements Guido put in place. He was very communicative through the whole process and although we had to stay somewhere else the first couple of days, it all worked out quite well and was pretty seamless for us, but I'm sure was a lot of work for Guido which we really appreciated! I don't believe any other host would take the time and all the effort to do this. As Guido said, things come up that are out of our control but it's how you handle it that matters and he handled it with my families best interests in mind. The reviews of how wonderful Guido & Gracie are as hosts is part of my decision to book with them and I am so glad I did!
The condo itself is incredible! It is updated, clean, spacious and the balconies provide the most amazing and private views of the ocean which is just steps away. I did the beach walk every morning from our condo all the way past Whalers Village and did not see any other place that offered this. On that note, the location is a little off the beaten path from all the shops, restaurants and popular beach spots so if you want to be in the action at all times, you'll have to sacrifice and won't get the privacy and spectacular view from your own condo. This wasn't a problem for us, we just kept all of our beach gear in the rental car and drove the 5-10 minutes to different locations. And when we were back at the condo, it was nice to be away from the crowds and enjoy peace and quiet, except for the amazing sound of crashing waves! We even had a huge turtle hang out on the reef for hours while we were out there relaxing. I was worried that my husband would get too hot without AC but that was not the case at all. The winds coming in from the balconies and the ceiling fans were all we needed to be comfortable. I'll take that over AC any day! The beds and couches were so comfortable too! We didn't need to utilize the front desk for anything while we were there but on arrival the man working it was very friendly. We didn't use the pool or hot tub because we can do that anywhere so I can't speak to that.
This was our first trip to Hawaii and we will definitely be back!
Guido and Gracie, thank you again SO MUCH for ensuring our trip was everything we hoped it would be and for taking on the extra work to keep us stress-free in making other arrangements and for the extra time at the condo!

A total paradise. We really enjoyed the view, amenities, location and the whole place. We slept with the windows opened and the sound of the waves. Will stay here again. The apartment has everything you need even snorkling equipment. And the beds were very comfortable. Cheers!

Unbelievable place to stay and enjoy Maui! The views alone was worth it. The beach is right outside the property. Definitely five stars!

We were absolutely blown away when we woke up in Paradise! The view is unbelievable. Best eye candy ever. The location was spectacular. We did some day trips but most of the time we spent here. We definitely recommend this for a family or a romantic getaway. We saw whales and green turtles right in front of the condo. There are 2 reefs you can swim/snorkel between which we did pretty much every day. A couple of times with green turtles. Guido and Gracie were great hosts. They even left our daughter the nicest birthday present for her. She was thrilled that you thought of her. We thank you very much for your generosity and sharing your beautiful Paradise Penthouse with us!!
Thanks Kay

The condo was the perfect spot and very well equipped with everything you need. Very clean and comfortable beds. Sunsets on the lanai and quiet days in the sun.

A wonderful cozy place, the balcony off the master was wonderful! Almost felt like the waves were gonna crash on your feet when laying in the King size bed! Would definitely book again!

When you take the family to Maui for your wife's birthday and the hosts surprise her with a gift upon arrival you know you’ve selected the right property.
This property is exactly what we were looking for. Unparalleled views situated perfectly between high tourism (Lahaina Historic District, Whalers Village, Kaanapali/Black Rock Beaches) and local spots (Honokowai/Fleming Beaches, Enchanted Forest/Honolua Bay).
About the views… Once you step out of the elevators and make a left you are hit with an incredible view and only then realize the treat you are about to experience from the condo (two lanais with unobstructed views of Lanai and Molokai).
The condo has everything you’ll need during your stay (fully stocked kitchen, washer/dryer, beach towels/chairs, snorkeling equipment, binoculars, etc). The complex has a large manicured green space with several lawn chairs/recliners to enjoy the sunsets/tanning and a pool with covered BBQ/dinning areas. The beach is easily accessible and safe for swimming snorkeling between the reefs and if you like a bit more sand Honokowai beach is next door. Be on the lookout for turtles as they tend to visit every day along the reefs.
Guido and Gracie were in town during our visit so we had an opportunity to briefly visit with them and enjoy a few laughs. They are fantastic people and take pride in providing an exceptional experience for their guests and we can’t thank them enough for a most memorable Hawaiian birthday.

We had an amazing time in this property. I can’t say enough about how amazing the views are of Molokai and Lanai. Watching the sun set from the balcony is amazing. For anyone concerned about lack of AC, winds and fans made it very live-able and not uncomfortable.
Traveling with small children we enjoyed the ease of access to the beach. There is a public beach next to the sea wall that can be accessed from the front of the property and is only a minute walk. You can also swim and snorkel off the sea wall as well. This is a a big advantage to not have to drive.
Only hiccup was the property was being cleaned when we arrived however I think this was related to the property management company rather than the owner.
Guido was a great communicator throughout our stay and gave many helpful tips for our stay. The property is well stocked with everything you might need from a kitchen appliance standpoint.

Lovely place and super attentive owners! We would definitely consider it again if they install blackout curtains in the Masters and AC!

Gorgeous view from the moment you walk in! All of the kitchen items you need, nice patio seating, beach towels, chairs and cooler to use. Guido was very responsive to any questions I had. This was the third time we stayed at Paki Maui, but this was the nicest! Peaceful and quiet compared to big hotels in Lahaina and Kaanapali. It was a bit warmer on top floor but we pulled out a large selection of fans to keep air flowing. I’d come here again!

Paki Maui #421 was everything that we had hoped it would be and more. We were constantly surrounded by the song of the ocean and the most amazing views from our penthouse perch. It was remarkable that the view is so large, since the lanais of the living area and the master bedroom together created an expansive view. The unit it beautifully furnished and with a fully stocked kitchen. There were a variety of beach items that we really appreciated to have on hand, including a large, wheeled Igloo cooler. The grounds of Paki Maui were perfect from the access to a safe swimming reef, to the lawn area, and to the pool and BBQ area. The Paki Maui location was perfect for walking to get food and supplies or visiting other beaches on foot. A big thank you to our hosts Guido and Gracie for giving us the opportunity to have an exceptional Hawaiian vacation! Mahalo!

Thank you for an incredible five days. We loved the property, the snorkeling, the accessibility and found a way to eat and enjoy lots of local spots! We will be back!!

Everything about our Maui trip was exceptional, and the condo was no exception! Very comfortable, very clean, and updated. The view is likely the very best on the property. A few short steps away, the beach was perfect for the family to swim and snorkel. At night the calming sea breeze and sounds of ocean waves lull you to sleep. We had a wonderful stay in this paradise, and will definitely be coming back. Thank you so much!

We had an amazing time at this condo and didn’t want to leave. The location is great, the condo had everything we needed and the setting is gorgeous. We were able to walk down and swim in the ocean right in front of the building and even saw a giant sea turtle which made the kids day. The pool was great as well and the whole property was very clean and well looked after. The location is perfect as we were able to take nice day trips and go into Lahaina for dinners. Would definitely recommend to others.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We loved every aspect of this condo, its amenities, and the ocean front snorkeling. If you are looking for a clean comfortable place, an amazing ocean front view, and a central Maui location - this is the place. We plan to stay here evrytime we are on Maui.

This property was amazing. Just as described. I think one of my favorite parts was sleeping to the sounds of the ocean! Only a few minutes to the grocery store, great restaurants and a walk downstairs to the beach and pool!! We enjoyed very much!

The condo is beautiful and I doubt you will find many properties with better views or access to the ocean.
Pam and Greg were both really responsive and the renting process was really easy. Hopefully when we return in the next couple of years this gem is available as we will definitely be repeat customers.

Beautiful views, great location. We loved the peaceful, not crowded, less resort-ish feel of this part of the island. You are still close enough to enjoy town and resort beaches if you want to. Beds were very comfortable and Pam was prompt with any information or suggestions we asked for!

The condo has a perfect view for spotting turles and whales and watching the sunset. It was perfect for 2 couples or a family.
Thank you hope to return soon.

Quiet and relaxing. Compared to staying at one of the big resorts. Lots of privacy. Wonderful views including sunsets, whales and turtles. Plenty of room in the unit to give space for everyone. Hubby liked snorkeling right out front. Unit is well stocked with kitchen supplies, comfy beds and has good beach chairs. Easy access to restaurants and groceries. Bring water shoes so you can navigate the reef in the water in front of the property easily. We did and it was fabulous swimming out front.
