What sets us apart from the rest?? More views, more privacy, more space, more toys, more aahhh!! At 1650 sq. ft. the lanai alone is larger than most condo rentals!
Imagine standing on a huge Hawaiian lanai or soaking in the private hot tub, the sun sparkling on the ocean, a soft breeze wafting, whales blowing in the distance, fabulous sunsets over the ocean and a view 24 hours a day that is so spectacular it rivals picture perfect post cards. That is The Best Kept Secret on Maui: The Maui Penthouse.
Experience the luxury of absolute comfort, convenience, and unaccustomed privacy away from the noise and distraction of even the most expensive of hotels, on top of seven story Kamaole Beach Royale with an unobstructed view of the ocean sky and neighboring islands. With its two lanais, private spa, fully appointed kitchen, two bedrooms, two baths, the goddess Pele sculpted into the wall of the vaulted ceiling living room, multiple TVs, on-site internet, and large, separate laundry room, THE PENTHOUSE IS UNEQUALED on the island of Maui and if that's not enough, it is just 2 or 3 minutes walk from the beach!
The Lanais: The large lanai offers an outdoor living room, tile topped table with 6 chairs for enjoying a meal in the cool beautiful morning or the star studded temperate evening; the Jacuzzi that can hold 8 people comfortably; chaise lounges for relaxing or private tanning, an artistic tiled outdoor shower, large propane BBQ complete with utensils, and room left over for a wedding dance. The lanai is for YOUR USE ONLY!
The small sheltered lanai is located on the sea side of the condo and contains tropical plants, a small breakfast table & chairs and is suitable for watching the whales while eating breakfast or relaxing with a good book.
Living room: The wall of windows keeps you in touch with the outside at all hours of the day. The sea colored carpet, & sofa bring the ocean indoors, and the Goddess Pele and a number of beautiful art objects by island artists bring Hawaii to you. The sofa opens to a queen size bed to accommodate another two guests. A flat screen TV, DVD, VCR, CD players, and Broadband high-speed internet access provide indoor entertainment for everyone.
Dining room: This room has a custom built 5 foot round table, with a Lazy Susan in the center to add convenience for serving food or playing board games. (There’s a closet full of games if you are tired of touring.) Open to the kitchen, it also includes a breakfast bar for serving light meals easily.
Kitchen: The fully appointed kitchen is a gourmet’s delight equipped with most every specialized kitchen utensil imaginable - from glass top range, Kitchen Aid mixer and Cuisinart food processor to a garlic press and melon scoop. Beautiful china Corelleware and plastic picnic settings are at your convenience. Dine in or eat out? Both alternatives are easily available from The Maui Penthouse.
Master Bedroom: The four poster California King size bed has a comfortable pillow top mattress, beautiful duvet and matching pillows. The étagère holds a television set with DVD, VCR and a drawer for your folded clothes. The attached bathroom has a 2 person glass enclosed shower with a window and private ocean view (amazing), marble topped counter, brass plated fixtures, luxurious waffle-weave robes, and a roomy closet.
Guest Bedroom has a King sized bed covered with beautiful linens and plenty of comfy pillows. This room includes a cabinet complete with television, DVD, VCR, a spacious chest of drawers, night stand and large closet stocked with extra bedding. Your guests will feel pampered and right at home.
Guest Bathroom: The matching green marble counter tops and shower for 2 make this a most luxurious place to clean up after a day at the beach or sunning on the lanai. Cabinet space abounds as well as wonderful fluffy towels. Both bathrooms have built in hairdryers.
Laundry Room: This is a very roomy place for a vacation condo. Plenty of cabinet space, soft water tank, all the laundry needs, folding areas, sink for rinsing sand from your bathing suit, laundry baskets, and best of all, picnic baskets if you love dining outdoors on the beach. It’s large enough to throw down a sleeping bag if the kids bring along too many friends.
Back Porch: The entryway to the condo completes the nearly 360 degree view which includes the island’s majestic volcano, Haleakala.
Swimming Pool, Roof Top Barbecue and Aloha Room are the only amenities that are not private and we share with other residents. The pool is open from 9 to 9. If you are having a barbecue for a crowd and are in need of a commercial size grill, you are welcome to use the roof top facility large enough to feed a wedding party which is open until 10 p.m.
Extras: The large cabinet on the lanai holds boogie boards, snorkeling gear, sand toys, mats, beach towels, beach chairs an exceptional learner surf board - much of which you would need to rent or buy if you stay elsewhere. This is our home away from home and we have the things our kids love and which we expect our guests will enjoy as well. The Maui Penthouse isn’t a sterile, commercial operation. We want you to enjoy all the things that our family enjoys by being in the most beautiful paradise in the world.
There is a portable twin bed and privacy for sleeping quarters in the laundry room. It is a little unconventional, but some of our clients really like it. We have 2 motorized Queen inflatable mattresses with linens or sleeping bags as well.
The Maui Penthouse is our home and we think we’re rightfully proud of all it offers. It is more spacious at 3400 sq. ft. than the most expensive luxury hotels, yet contains many more luxuries. Everyone on the island claims they have beautiful views but not only is ours spectacular - we even have a view from the master bathroom shower. Who could ask for more? Welcome!

Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 1998
Why the Owner Chose Kamaole Beach Royale
When, we bought The Maui Penthouse we had been vacationing on Maui for several years and were frustrated by being in cramped places without the amenities of home. Actually, we only purchased the view. We stripped the interior and started from scratch. We love Maui and go over as often as possible. It is our little bit of Paradise and we know our guests will be just as thrilled with it as we are.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
Shake your head back and forth, drop your mouth open views, space, privacy, views, quick to the beach, toys you don't have to rent, space, outdoor living, art, comfortable beds, did I mention space? Oh ya, and for a condo and the price ... it's really spacious. :D
Ulua Beach - delightful snorkeling location less than 10 minutes away.
Charlie Young beach is a popular beginning surf area and only 1 mile to the north. Wave Riders is a reliable company from whom to take lessons.
Nicely Designed 18 hole golf course with ocean views. Just 5 minutes away on Piilani Hiway.
Troy Morrison - Traveling Therapist. Makes house calls! His wife is currently in massage therapy school as well and they have a 1 year old boy. You will not be disappointed, he knows his craft.
The BEST beach for daily beach access from our unit! Our favorite and most visited by our Guests
Webcam overlooks Kamaole Beach Park II in central Kihei, Maui, HI http://www.mauigateway.com/~rw/video/kihei02.html
Kamaole Beach III is the longest of the three beach parks. "Kam III" has large grassy area with plenty of space that locals love to use.
An incredibly good walking beach. Because it is the longest stretch of beach in South Maui, it is one of the best to watch the sunset while you stroll across the sand.
Makena Landing is a nice secluded park with plenty of trees for shade and chickens for amusement There are restrooms and a shower. This is an alternate site for attempting the Five Caves. All levels
Many chartered boats make the trip here, but you can park nearby without the expense of a boat trip. The turtles are incredible to see up close and personal
Big Beach Makena is enormous and can draw a crowd because of its waves. It is reputably the most photographed beach in Maui.
The best restaurant on the island, and no matter your budget, to miss their food is a grave mistake. Fish is unforgettable. We Never EVER leave without visiting once
303 Piikea Ave (808) 891-1120. Great restaurant. Hawaiian with a contemporary twist and close by. Chocolate lava dessert cant be missed
We eat here more than any other place on the island. Unbeatable value, possibly the best in Maui and only 4 min walk
Not fancy, but good salted pork and other local favorites with huge portions and affordable. 2439 S Kihei Rd # 107A,
Very good breakfast. Nearby and inexpensive. Mornings can be busy. 1945 S Kihei Rd
A CANT MISS restaurant. Amazing sushi, but sunday early bird and select late-night specials make it 25-50% off. Check dates and times 1881 S Kihei Rd # Kt116
Very Very good pizza. If your in the area, make the stop. Organic, fun, and very fresh. 89 Hana Hwy, Paia
Owner's Map of Kamaole Beach Royale
We walk the beach and run in the neighborhood virtually every day when we are on island. We can't take our eyes off the view and eat fruit and fish like there's no tomorrow. When off island, Fred is a practicing dentist focusing on oral surgery, and I am a land developer. We are "empty-nesters" now.
