Aloha and welcome to the Papakea Resort, a 13-acre oceanfront resort with a true feeling of Maui. There are two sets of low-rise buildings, each with its own pool, spa, cabana, putting green, shuffleboard, and newly upgraded gas barbecue area. The resort also has two lighted tennis courts and an activity desk with 24-hour front desk check-in availability and free parking. For those of you who 'must' stay connected, Papakea now offers free Wireless Internet access throughout the resort. For times when you wish to pursue outdoor activities, the golf courses of Kapalua and Kaanapali are nearby, and great snorkeling and boogie-boarding beaches are within walking distance. Only steps from the ocean, our top-floor penthouse unit has been completely remodeled and provides a beautiful ocean view. There is a view from both the living room and master bedroom. Most of the furniture was custom built. By Hawaii's standards, this penthouse is huge. It is over 1200 square feet. The main floor has two bedrooms with their own flat screen TV's. The master bedroom is very large with plenty of closet and dresser space. It has a king-sized bed and full en suite bathroom with dual sinks. The second bedroom has a queen-sized bed and a full en suite bathroom. Both bedrooms have custom built desks. The third bedroom is a loft with a queen-sized bed and its own full en suite bathroom with HDLCD TV and DVD. All bathrooms feature glassed in showers and granite countertops for the vanity area. The loft area is unique and quite large. There are only a few loft units available with this type of configuration because these penthouses exist only on the fourth floor and most other fourth floor units are either a one bedroom or studio. Very few units in Papakea have an opportunity to feature a bedroom with a direct view of the ocean from your bed! Our penthouse is air conditioned with a Split A/C system that cools the entire condo, but with ceiling fans in all rooms... who needs it?! Just open all the windows, listen to the ocean, and let the warm, comfortable tropical air relax you. The living area has ample seating, as well as a large 60-inch LED TV screen with satellite connection and DVD with a Bose sound system. The modern gourmet kitchen features LED lighting, stainless steel appliances, cherry wood cabinets, and granite counters and bar that allow seating for four during meal preparation. The kitchen is fully equipped with dishes, cooking utensils, refrigerator with ice maker, dishwasher, microwave, toaster oven, and coffee maker. A unique feature has been the addition of a wine fridge for those who take their wines seriously. The unit comes complete with washer and dryer. The marble tiled floors throughout, give it that clean, cool look and feel you desire in the tropics. Our unit has unique folding accordion doors which opens onto your private lanai. These doors, when fully opened, create a feeling of open living space. Very few units have these types of doors! So sit back on the lanai and enjoy an unobstructive view of the pool, the ocean and the island of Molokai. The evening sunsets are spectacular!! There is a $17/day Facilities Use Fee (with a 10 day $170 maximum per calendar month) will be collected at check out, payable to the front desk.

Everything was represented accurately in the listing. This resort location is perfect. Close to the beach walkway yet not in the middle of so many resorts. Close to a great coffee shop, pastry-pizza spot and co-op market. Grounds are very well kept.
Condo was perfect for 6 adults. Clean and everything worked. We had a small issue with the tv In living room. The owner Carl was very responsive. A maintenance person from resort came within 10 mins to fix the problem.
Highly recommend this place.

We had a great week at the Papakea Condo. Great location with some really solid food choices nearby. We had a minor issue upon arrival but Carl is very responsive and helpful. There were some beach chairs and floats on hand which was super useful and appreciated. We liked the door code for entry instead of keys- one less thing to lose! The property has 2 gazebo areas that we used for takeout/outdoor dining with a great sunset view. We also saw folks grilling out there. The on-site staff was very friendly and helpful. We would not hesitate to rent this condo again.

This property was ideal for our family of 6. It accommodated us all easily. We had a beautiful view of the ocean and access to the water and pools easily. There was also many available activities within walking distance from the place. Carl was accommodating and so helpful with ideas of places on the island. Our trip was amazing. We highly recommend!!

Nice property, great location convenient to shops and beach. Some initial miscommunication about door code but owner went out his way on his own time to quickly resolve the issue. Complex is a little dated but well maintained

The unit is exactly as photos convey. The high ceilings and views of the ocean are amazing. We traveled to Maui for a wedding with our young adult sons and it was the perfect rental for them to come and go as they pleased - and with the keypad I never had to worry about them losing a plastic key. Every bedroom has it's own bathroom and shower which made getting ready simple. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals and snacks. The resort does not have enough loungers for all the guests but Carl's unit had beach chairs so we used those on busy pool days. Everything was perfect and we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you so much!

We had a little snafu upon arrival but Mr. Brandes and the management company responded quickly. Great location, close to restaurants, groceries and attractions. Great views and the sound of the waves was very relaxing. This was our first trip to the islands and it may not be the last. I would recommend this condo to other groups seeking relaxation and close proximity to attractions. Papakea is very family oriented.

The views, location, and amenities on the property were great! The open bathrooms in the loft bedroom space and owner's suite took some getting used to, but everything was clean and comfortable.

Overall great stay...
At initial check in there were issues with the upstairs toilet and the AC unit, but after quick communication with Carl (the owner) things were quickly taken care of. My only concern was that the people in charge of cleaning the unit did not do much cleaning at all, so we had to do our own deep clean before feeling truly comfortable with our stay.
Location-wise, you couldn't ask for a better place. Walking distance to a fun food truck park, coffee shops, ABC (mini-mart) and a grocery store. Definitely got my steps in this vacation! The view from our lanai was unbelievable - we saw sunsets, rainbows and sometime even whales playing in the ocean!
This is a location my family and I plan to stay in again in the future - thanks Carl!

Carl was great to work with. He was so kind to provide a summary of the location, places to see, things to do and places to eat. That was so very helpful! There was nothing more he could have done to make our stay at Papakea more enjoyable.
The communication with Chasen Rainbows, the property manager, was quite different. We had an issue with the air conditioning unit, which Carl could not handle from a distance, so we followed instructions and contacted Chasen Rainbows on our 2nd day. We never got a call back in the next 5 days and the issue was not resolved. (After communication with Carl, I believe he has tried to remedy the situation with Chasen Rainbows.
Carl, it was great renting from you. The place is beautiful. Scenery & view from the lanai can’t be fully appreciated in pictures! Loved it!

Papakea C404 was a perfect spot for our family vacation! The unit was beautiful, and in the perfect spot. There is no beach right in front of the property, but it's a very easy walk to the sand, and the pools on the property are great, and there's a lot of grassy areas. The unit itself had everything we needed for a great family vacation!
