We are fortunate to 'Live Aloha' everyday here in Maui and our goal is for our guests to 'Live Aloha' while they are visiting. Whether it's just another trip to Maui or the only trip you'll ever take to Maui, our mission is to make it special. Here's how we do that:
1) Check-in: We greet you upon your arrival at the Resort and personally check you into your suite. We show you where things are located within the Resort and also escort you to your room. In addition, we're there to show you where to register your car and where to park.(We don't have you pick up a key and then fend for yourself. (The front desk here does not check in VRBO guests.)
2) Service: We present each guest with a Welcome Aloha Package which includes a box of Maui chocolates, a bag of 100% Maui Grown Coffee, L'Occitane soaps, shampoo and a bottle of chilled champagne.
We also provide beach chairs and towels, boogie boards (good ones, not those Styrofoam ones), binoculars to watch the whales, free local and long distance calls to the Mainland U.S. and Canada, free wi-fi internet and the cleanest room at the Resort.
We are at the Resort all the time and live only 5 minutes up the street, so if anything should require our attention we are quick to respond.
3) Location: Our unit looks over the palm trees not thru them. Our Studio is 595 sf and located in the inner courtyard. With us you rent unit 733, you don't rent a category and find out what you get when you arrive at the front desk. With us you get actual pictures of the unit and the actual view from the unit. We don't zoom in with our photos.
Please compare to 1 bedroom units, there is only one stack of 1 bedroom units. (700 sf)in the inner courtyard in either building.
4) Price: We offer the most competitive price. Some units may be a little less expensive, but you will not have the location or the view or the service.
Other things to consider:
-25% TO 35% OFF RESORT MANAGEMENT RATES and all the SERVICE you'll need for a great getaway.
-No worrying about when the maid service is going to interrupt your day.
-We personally supervise the cleaning of this unit.
-Use of swimming pool, exercise room, concierge service, bell and valet service and
activities desk.
-The Staff at Honua Kai will treat you like your sitting in the first class cabin.
-Charge all resort costs on your credit card.
-For those guests who have stayed in other Maui condo's, you'll say to yourself 'The condos in Maui are so old that I forgot what brand new feels like. It's as nice on the inside as it
is on the outside'. We want you happy and we want you back!
HONUA KAI- 'Honua' is translated from Hawaiian as the planet earth; it can also denote firm, stable ground.'Kai' is the South Pacific Ocean as seen from the shores of Kaanapali disappearing beyond the horizon, past Molokai and Lanai, and into what ancient Hawaiians called the 'Great Sea of Eternity'

Thank you for a wonderful stay at Honua Kai! We just recently returned from a 5 night stay in this studio. The studio was perfect, had everything we needed and was immaculately clean. Joe/Rhonda made sure we had everything we needed and even though they were out of town the day we arrived, they saw to it that every last detail was taken care of, someone was there to help us check in, and they followed up with us the next day. If you are traveling to Maui, Honua Kai is the PERFECT place to stay as it's just a short drive from over-crowded Westin/Hyatt/Whalers area and so much more "resort-like". You still get all the same great benefits as if you were staying at the Marriott/Westin time share...but better. When you rent with Joe and Rhonda they are on the island and available to you to answer any questions or help if anything should arise. You never have to fight for a lounge chair by any of the gorgeous pools here (or worry about saving one)...and you are just steps from the beach! Dukes is right on property for a quick bite to eat and rarely has much of a wait. They will also serve you poolside if you want. Renting through Joe and Rhonda also ensures you will have everything you need to pack up and go for a beach day too, chairs, cooler, etc...all in your unit. This was our first trip to Maui where we were SO IMPRESSED with the property/service (and we've rented several VRBO condos/timeshares in Maui) that we re-booked with Joe and Rhonda for a future trip right away. We can't wait to return and can't recommend working with these owners enough! If one of their units are open for your desired dates, book it - you will not be disappointed!Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, people with disabilities, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

We came here for our wedding and our honeymoon. Joe is a fantastic owner of this unit. From the moment we checked in, where Joe greeted us at the door, until the time we checked out, everything was perfect. Joe gave us a tour of the unit and resort so we were comfortable with everything. The condo is nicely stocked with everything you could think of. The views from the lanai are absolutely beautiful. The communication with Joe and Rhonda is great. Every question was answered very promptly. We will definitely be back to rent this unit. Thanks Joe!Recommended for: Sightseeing, romantic getaway.

Did not disappoint We stayed at the Honua Kai 6 months before this trip using Travelocity for a hotel/air package but this time we wanted to try VRBO and are happy we did. Same excellent room (obviously not same room number) except a bit cheaper and without daily maid service or the $25 daily resort fee. While the last trip was a homerun with choosing Maui and the Honua Kia we fell into the vacation trap, that is, if you use any travel service or even book direct with the hotel you don’t know what your getting until you check in, get your room and walk through the door. We learned this lesson and ended up paying for it with room upgrade fees. With this unit you see the photos and description before you commit. Granted having stayed at the Hanua Kia before we knew what we were getting in that regard but the photos helped ensure/verify things for us with this unit. If I sound a bit anal I guess I am in some regards, if I’m taking a vacation to relax, recharge, and play I want a nice comfortable place to stay with a view and this unit delivers. Joe and Rhonda did an excellent job with their unit description, and as equally important, with communications. We have no reservations recommending them or this unit!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

We stayed at this unit during our honeymoon in late September 2011 and found it to be an outstanding property. Upon our arrival, we were greeted by Joe with a bottle of champagne, chocolates and coffee, a wonderful way to begin our vacation. The unit itself is everything described in the listing, very clean and well maintained. We especially enjoyed our morning coffee from the lanai looking out at the ocean. We would definately recommend this property to anyone visiting west Maui. A special thank you to Joe who was very helpful and accomodating during our stay. He really exemplifies the meaning of the word "Aloha"! Mahalo!! --Michael and AlisonRecommended for: Sightseeing, romantic getaway.
