Beautiful Resort and Unit
The resort is spectacular with tons of pools and onsite restaurant and stores. Beach access just a few steps away as well as a shopping area directly across the street. Our host was amazing and checked in to make sure we were doing well, and the unit itself was amazing. We spent every morning and evening on the bal only watching the ocean and listening to the birds. Each room had plenty of space and the kitchen was fully functional. This trip went down in the books as one of our favorites and we can’t wait to go back.

BETTER THAN THE PICS!
Gorgeous property grounds and the condo is impeccable. My husband and I shared one room and our adult son the other. 2 master bedrooms make it ideal. The lanai is beautiful and the view is spectacular. My only suggestions would be to include binoculars, more wall hooks, and new shower heads. The remodel on this place is perfect. The outdoor pools and Duke's restaurant on the property make it extra special and convenient. Parking was a breeze as well. I HIGHLY recommend this unit. It is truly special. Mahalo!

Like staying at home...
Location, location, location; we loved the location of this property. Close enough to most things, but not overwhelmingly crowded like Kaanapali south of Black Rock.
Property is very well-equipped for vacation, including the little things you might not expect like a cooler, beach chairs, foam roller and yoga mat.
Having a kitchen (also well-equipped) and laundry was also made life more convenient. Super easy check-in with clear instructions. Hosts were very welcoming and responsive when we had questions.
We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

We came in late and the staff at Honua Kai we very helpful in getting us parked and into our room. The room itself was beautiful, everything looked new. First thing when we woke int he morning we went to the patio and were blown away by how beautiful the view was!! The pools, access to the beach, and local restaurants were great for us! The hosts provided beach chairs, cooler and football for some fun in the sun too which was great when traveling to other beaches around the island!
Next time on Maui we will reach out and look to stay in this unit again!
