The location of the property is excellent. There is a park and beach right across the street. Also, within less than 10 minutes there’s a great snorkeling bay and quite a few sandy beaches. Perfect location between that and Lahaina. Within five minutes or less you can go grocery shopping and get coffee and even souvenirs and restaurants available. The place was very comfortable and had everything that we needed. The host was very responsive and very nice. Definitely would stay again.

Very clean, perfect location I could see the ocean from the lanai but had privacy with all the tropical landscaping. The beach park was directly across the street which was super convenient. And it was in walking distance of a great coffee shop, several great restaurants and a food truck park. The condo was super clean and cool with the windows and sliding door open. Air conditioner in the bedroom worked well. Shower had excellent water pressure. Pool looked nice but didn't use it because the beach was so close. Would definitely stay here again.

The property was perfect. Right across the street from the beach, the beach chairs and umbrella were a great perk. Short drive to all the downtown areas. Would 100% stay again!

The condo is advertised as tiny, though it has plenty of room for 4 adults with comfortable sleeping, bathing, cooking, dining and relaxing. The host cares about tenants by providing all the necessities for enjoying the stay, even swimming boards and beach chairs. Furniture is made of natural bamboo along with condo decorations, reminds a nice bungalow. A/C blows strong and cold, though a bit loud. Bathroom is super clean! We enjoyed our stay and would highly appreciate to recommend it to other visiting families.

This apartment had everything we needed and more - during our stay in Maui. Including well-stocked kitchen (appliances and utensils) and everything you need for the beach too.
Short drive away from Kapula bay - very good snorkelling place
Close to all amenities.
Host is awesome and very quick to respond.
Would def stay in same place again when we come back.

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy condo! Very clean and in a great little neighborhood with easy access to the park with beach, coffee shop, and small market. The outside patio is a wonderful way to enjoy morning coffee and an evening cocktail. We are looking forward to staying here again.

What a gorgeous stay. This was such a perfect home base for west Maui. We could walk to multiple restaurants and shopping places. Grabbed fresh papayas for breakfast every morning. And we were a quick drive from snorkeling at Kapalua. Plus we had quiet pool access and an ocean view from the patio. I would definitely choose to stay here again.

Cozy property, feels like home. Love that we were across the street from the Honokowai beach park. the place have everything you need in day to day stuff, especially beach chairs, gargles, coolers. stuff that we didn't have to spend money on if we want to go to the beach.

Amazing apartment right across from the beach. You get the beach view from the garden. It has everything you need, along with beach towels. 100% recommend!

Beautiful condo! I didn't think it was fair to dock a star as the pull out couch was super uncomfortable, but it's understandable as many people may have slept on it, and wear & tear is normal. The bathroom was very clean and really organized. I stayed with 3 other female friends of mine, and it was the perfect size for all of us. Every appliance worked, so we'd wake up to make breakfast, and sit at the dining table. Since Ka'anapali Beach is right behind the condo, we'd walk to beach in the evenings to watch the sunset, and walk straight to the complex hose to wash off any sand. There is 1 parking spot right in front of the unit, which made it super easy to bring the luggage in & out. Sophia was wonderful when it came to any questions we had, she was quick with her replies, and provided very detailed instructions regarding entrance to the unit upon arrival, and where to locate Wi-Fi information.
Honestly, if I ever return, I'm going to try to book this same place. It was definitely home away from home.

It was close to the beach and in walking distance to many shops. My son lost his wallet and the cleaning crew returned it. It was beautiful and I wish I didn’t have to leave.

Stayed for 4 nights in June. The location is great if you are looking for something with more of a neighborhood feel vs. hotel row on Kanapa'ali Beach. "Farmer's Market" store and good coffee are a block away, and a park and beach are across the street. Having assigned parking right outside the front door was great. Everything worked and the place was clean, and in my opinion it's right about what you should expect on Maui for the price.

We had a blast on our family vacation! The condo was super cute and had everything we needed. We loved being able to walk to the beach and get our coffee fix at Bad Ass Coffee every morning. The hosts were also very responsive and helpful.
Great location if you have young kids. The condo has a patio and little yard for kids to run around plus there’s a playground at the beach across the street and a great farmer’s market nearby.

Overall this is a decent place to stay if you want to be close to the beach and all other necessities. However, you should know it is in a more touristic part of the island which makes that it can be quite noisy at night for example (the windows are not really windows, more like shuts so quite loud). The condo was old but clean. Only thing we really missed was seasoning/spices in the kitchen, there was only salt. And the sofa bed in the living room is okay to sleep on, but not super comfortable if you are with 4 adults.

We had an amazing time at this property. The property is older but well kept. It had all the amenities we needed for our stay. The best part was the location. We could see the ocean from the Lanai. We were within trekking distance of shops and most importantly coffee shops. We would definitely stay here again.

Very comfortable stay in a well very equipped condo including beach chairs, cooler,boogie board and umbrella.
Loved the beach across the street to watch the sunset. We used the pool a number of times and always had it to ourselves.
Close drive to many lovely beaches and to Lahaina.
Our contact with Sophia was fast and so very helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

What a great place- across the street from a park/beach. First morning woke up - looked across the street to see the whales playing about 100 yards off shore. I was hooked from then on. Everything is close to the condo. Laundry room and pool are on the premise. Very convenient. Had beach chairs and towels. Very handy. Thank you for everything.

Location: Walk across a small two-lane road and you're at the beach, park, playground. You can hear cars, buses and people walking by but also the splashing of the waves. Right by the condo, is Boss Frogs where you can get water gears and other equipments (rent a gopro) and also booked all different tours like we did. A small market for souvenirs, coffee, food and even massage place. About a block away is a gas station, convenience store and 5-6 differerent food trucks. Its less than hour from the airport, volcano, the mountains, start of Road to Hana, the famous Makena Beach, about 15 minutes from Lahaina town where you can shop till you drop.
House: It is clean and organized. Well stocked kitchen. More than enough beach and bath towels for a 2 people. Fan in the bedroom and living room, a/c in bedroom. Parking space right in front of your condo door. It is a small condo, comfortable for 2 people. House has old and oriental (bamboo furnitures) feel and not modern. During my stay, we saw 2 cockroaches crawling, one in bathroom and one in living room.
The reason I am still giving the condo 5 stars is because, even if the condo is clean and we kept it clean during our stay, we think because it is an old condo, the weather and location to the beach (moisture), bugs and insects will still be present.
Communication: We didnt have to contact the owners Scott and Sophia. Check in and out was easy, we didnt encounter any problems during our stay, and we had everything we needed at the condo.
Overall Review: If you are planning to enjoy the different sites, trails, beaches, view and activities in Maui, this is the place to stay. This is our honeymoon and we hang out in our condo at the end of the day, to watch tv for maybe an hour and then sleep. The rest of the day we were out and about which we believe Maui is all about.
Thank you so much Scott and Sophia for sharing your home and making our stay at Maui very meaningful and enjoyable!

This spot is well appointed and perfectly located. You can hear the waves and a tiny bit of traffic. It was clean and stocked, included beach towels and chairs. Plenty of pillows! Only downside was the bed...we're used to a plush king and this has a queen. Will absolutely recommend to friends who want easy access to beach and amenities. Mahalo!

Check in was very straightforward ! We really enjoyed our stay here, as it was in a great location. Loved sitting on the lanai in the mornings/evenings and the ocean views were fantastic. For the price , you can’t beat this condo. Maui can be very pricey compared to other islands, but this place is a gem. Glad we found it ! Thanks again to the owners for a great stay. Also, the kitchen is completely stocked with utensils. We like to buy local and cook while we travel to Hawaii so this was perfect.

This rental was more than accommodating in providing basic necessities. I feel like they went above and beyond when it came to cooking supplies, toiletries, linens, kids entertainment and cable options. I also loved having the parking right in front of the unit. That is a priceless amenity when you are packing up for adventure each day. We loved our stay and would rent here again.

Loved the cozy space and location. Breeze through the sliding French door was lovely all day, and AC in the bedroom was appreciated. Shower has strong pressure, bedroom required some sheets over the window to remain dark, full kitchen was functional and overall a great stay. Sophia provided excellentand timely communication. Thank you!

Our stay at Honokowai Palms was sublime! The pictures are accurate, and we stepped foot into a very peaceful, lovely, clean, and comfortable condo that turned out to be such a nice oasis to come home to after a full day out and about on the island, or even when my husband and I had to stay in to work from our computers during the week we were here (good WiFi here).
The ceiling fans and extra fan kept us cool, as well as the air conditioning in the bedroom, which we would turn on for a short time to cool the room down before going to bed, then turn it off when we went to sleep. The iPhone docks were a nice touch to be able to play music in the condo with decent sound quality. The huge flat screen was also nice, though we didn't spend much time watching TV. They do provide a shelf full of DVDs and books for guests. The bathroom is also nice, but the best part is the shower! From the outside it looks small, but you step down into it, so it's actually quite tall and spacious. Plus, the water pressure is awesome! Another plus was the lanai facing the beach across the street. It's a beautiful backyard view framed by lush tropical foliage. There seemed to be a few too many chairs out there in the small space (6 total, plus 2 tables), but we just pushed them aside so they wouldn't obstruct the view too much. Kitchen-wise, it had everything we needed and more (even a fancy faucet that lights up!). The fridge was a bit loud, but closing the bedroom door when going to bed helped keep the noise out. There was also occasional street noise since the building is adjacent to the main road, but again, nothing too bad unless a car drove by blasting music or the school bus pulled up early in the morning to pick up the keiki! :)
We occasionally saw a tiny ant or a few here and there, but that's normal for living on the island. We just made sure to clean up any crumbs and washed dishes immediately, as well as put food away properly. They weren't a problem at all.
The condo is within walking distance to so many good places, particularly the Farmers Market Maui store and Honokowai Beach Park across the street. We rented bikes from Boss Frog's too which was perfect for getting around! We'd stay here again in a heartbeat! Mahalo Sophia and Scott for being such responsive, gracious and excellent hosts!

I go to Maui every year and stay in the same general area. This property is great to stay at right across the street from a beach park and close to grocery store, restaurants, food trucks. The property has a swimming pool( though never went) and a grill with a table next to it.
The condo was perfect for us.
We spent alot of time out on the lanai. Kitchen is fully equipped with all the pots, pans and dishes. The bedroom has a ac unit (We did not need window open, ceiling fan) was all we needed. The condo even has beach chairs, umbrella and ice chest.
I will definitely try to stay here again next year.
Thank you for renting your condo to us.

Overall we had a good stay here. The condo is in a nice location near Lahaina. It is older, paint is peeling off the cabinets, and a few stains on cushions, etc., but overall in good condition. There is air conditioning in the master, but no air conditioning in the living room, which can get hot despite the ceiling fan and fan. The condo building located behind this complex looks a bit sketchy, but this building was kept up nicely. We did have someone come yell at us for backing into our parking spot, which was odd. We were parked perfectly center, not doing anything crazy or aggressive. I did really like how the hosts have included tons of hooks on the walls to hang towels and jackets. The space was used smartly.

This condo and the location was so cute. The town is small and slow paced. You can enjoy a nice walk to coffee, groceries, massages, the beach...we loved being away from the busy areas in Lahaina. But easily close enough to drive down to Front St and Whalers Village. Also the decor in the condo is way cuter in person - light and airy, modern Hawaiian theme. Beach gear is provided (beach chairs, towels. umbrella, plus some other things we didn't get to using). We would definitely stay here again.

My husband and I really enjoyed staying here. It was everything we needed for our stay including all cooking ware and beach stuff. The location was directly across the street from a nice beach park and down the street from lots of food. The beach in Maui was only 7 min drive away!

We had a great time staying here. The condo has pretty much everything you could need. There were a few things I would point out: no dishwasher( which kind of sucked) , and a few cockroaches/ants. Understanding that this is an island, and it is bound to happens, we had an ant issue most days with teeny tiny ants ( that bite) and some cockroaches when we went to bed. But overall though , as far as condos go, it has everything and a great location. Coffee shop is 50 yards away, beach right across the street, was nice. Great snorkeling beaches, within 10 minutes. Was very nice to have the beach chairs etc. Having the patio and grass area right outside was also very helpful. The air works great( in the bedroom only) , which helped alleviate the humidity, and hot days/nights. Would recommend staying here, and would probably stay again. The tv is huge for the size of the condo, and the WiFi, worked great. Thank you!

Honokawai beach park is feet away with the sounds of the ocean. A bus stop, farmers market and coffee shop Right out your front door. We will definitely stay here again. We actually can’t wait to stay here again! Sophie was also a wonderful host and communicated immediately after we sent her a message.

An apartment and location to fall in love with from the first sight! Tidy and clean interior, and a very cozy “beach house” feel to décor. A complete set of kitchen supplies and gadgets, even for a big family to stay in for a long time – a great blender for a smoothie morning became our favorite. Checking-in process was very easy and no intervention from property manager was necessary – we punched in a code for the key locker by the door and voilà, we got the key to enter. There is an air conditioner and a window above the head of the bed. Together with air vent above the bed, you can mix and match your favorite combinations to get the desired temperature and air flow in the room. Local breeze at night is light and wonderful, so we slept with the air went on - on the light setting - and right side of the window opened and it was nice to sleep even under just one bed sheet. There are plenty of electric outlets. If you ever run into one that supposedly does not charge, click reset button on it and it will turn back on – a safety feature from manufacturer. Neighbors are polite and quiet. The terrace view is very scenic – looks onto local park and ocean shore – also, has plenty of shade from morning till evening and two tables for eating outside. The apartment is one minute away from a great vegetarian food-market/deli; a coffee shop with an ATM inside; and a wonderful spa salon where we enjoyed Hawaiian Lomi-Lomi massages from a highly skilled specialists (there is also a chiropractor and an acupuncture specialist). Two extra minutes in the same direction and you will reach local fish-market/bistro – you can make reservation at the place, online, or over the phone. Local park is a jewel by itself! Big area for your sport and celebratory family activities; lovely wild beach area with a great area of shallow water for kids to play in, great deeper swimming area for adults and wonderful reefs for the adventurous types with a great variety of fish and sea turtles. The only suggestion we have for you: in general, when you are swimming in any tropical location with rich underwater life and reefs, invest in Water Shoes to feel comfortable standing on underwater rocks and not get poked or scratched by sharp reef edges. Also, light foam swimming board might be a good support and transportation method for those, who have difficulty walking and balancing on rocks and reefs. 10 minutes away is even better snorkeling location - Napili bay!
Enjoy as we did!!!
