We live in Southern California and our family has been visiting Hawaii regularly for the last 15-plus years. We have always considered Maui a home away from home.
We finally decided to buy a place and we could not be happier~ We would love to share our 'Home away from Home' with you~
This (pictured) is Jill Clark our on island host.
Jill Marzo/Clark purchased this condo in 2012
After a year and a half long search, I was introduced to the brand new Honua Kai Resort in Kaanapali! Although I live on the Mainland, I was befriended by some very special Maui residents who were instrumental in helping me with my condo purchase and setting up this vacation rental - the best realtor on Maui and the best property manager on the Island!
We chose Honua Kai because of its beachfront location, its contemporary yet traditional 'Hawaiian' ambiance and the wonderful amenities available at the Resort. The location could not be better~ Kaanapali, Napili, Kapalua and Lahaina close by for wonderful outings. Honua Kai is truly paradise here and we know you will enjoy our Island retreat as much as we do.
Our family loved Honua Kai, it is an incredible resort. Recommend the resort to families. The accommodations where as advertised and the owner was responsive and easy to work with. We never felt before a view of the ocean was needed, but it was NICE to have a coffee or lunch on the lanai and view the pools and ocean ... we were spoiled. Although this was a studio it worked for our family of four.
Pros: Clean, location, access to beach, pool, water slide (kids need to be 42" tall), amenities such as gym, store, Dukes, washer/dryer onsite in condo, view of ocean, quite unit.
Cons: Nothing to mention, if I had to say one thing maybe a few more plates/cups so we are not running the dishwasher as often. How minor is that when your in paradise.
Lastly, this is a pro and con. We have been to Maui lots, it was common for us to pack up the cooler, beach chairs, umbrella etc and head to the beach ... this condo lacked the cooler and boogie board. but honestly, we never wanted to leave the resort, it was so incredible and the beach was right there. To me this is more a pro, we did not have to drag everything to the beach, if you want to go to different beaches you may want to bring a cooler and pick up a boogie board.
We are booking again in the future and recommend this unit to anyone looking for a premium stay in Maui. Our trip was very enjoyable, thank you Jill.
This was our second stay in the Honua Kai resort complex and our first time staying in this particular studio. The studio was lovely with very nice accommodations. We ended up being delayed on the mainland for a day due to a snow storm. Jill and her check in team were very accommodating as a result of the delay. We found the studio to be inviting and nicely stocked with amenities. The resort itself were great. I wish we would have been able to stay longer. We will definitely return!!
Suite was very clean and suited our needs
Great views from the lanai
We would recommend for any couple
Thank you, we really enjoyed our stay! The beach was awesome and we saw whales right from the shore! Love the small cozy restaurants and farmers market that was close. It was great that everything is in walking distance.
Loved every minute of our stay, we’ll definitely be going back.
This was my wife and my first trip to Maui and we could not have asked for a better place to stay. The unit is spacious for the two of us and had amenities we could not have had at an expensive hotel resort: we loved the ability to wash/dry our swimwear and clothes and will definitely not need to bring as much clothing next time. A full kitchen with pretty much everything you need allowed us to make daily breakfast (a great way to save $$ in Maui; we ate on the porch/lanai with a view of the ocean and mountain). A thorough arsenal of beach/snorkeling gear (masks/snorkels/fins, Tommy Bahama beach chairs + beach umbrella) made our amateur snorkeling experience so much better and easier. It also comes with a pair of binoculars for those coming here during whale watching season. The umbrella was slightly broken and the fins were kids' size but did not get in the way of enjoying the beach. It comes with a TV, Roku, wifi that worked well. I liked leaving the TV on channel 91-1 which played nonstop Hawaiian music. The location is also great--just a 5-10 driving or 30 min walking distance to great beaches and snorkeling beaches such as Black Rock Beach (park at Whaler Village parking lot) and Kapalua Bay (free beach access parking and the tennis court parking across the street also works). It's very clean(no bugs), feels like a luxury condo, and completely sound-proof. I'd say 3 of the 6 community jacuzzis had "hot" water-- the rest were lukewarm but fortunately we had no problems accessing the well-functioning ones. Don't get stuff from Costco; you can get pretty much everything at Times Marketplace across the street; I highly recommend buying a bucket of Roselani ice cream (coconut and vanilla are delicious; local ice cream company; ) which is what the famous Ululani shaved ice chain uses for their ice cream. The resort staff are super friendly and owner and her onsite-staff were helpful, responded in timely manner, and helped us book a pair of tickets to the Drums Luau and Hyatt Regency Resort. I found out later you can get a pair of tickets for free (or $150 gift certificate) if you sit through a sales presentation of Hyatt timeshare for 60-90 mins. Everywhere I went on the island people recognized Honua Kai as a great place to stay. We'd love a chance to come back. Mahalo and aloha!
