Location: Honokowai, West Maui, Maui, Hawaii, USA (45 min. to Kahului airport (major),2 min. to Kapalua airport)
Accommodations: Condominium, 1 Bedroom + Convertible bed(s), 1 Bath (Sleeps 2-3)
If you want to be close to the ocean, this is the one. If you like privacy and quiet, there is no better condo. If you enjoy cooking and BBQ-ing with an oceanview, you found the place. If listening to the waves and sleeping in a comfy king bed (450 thread count linens, down pillows) interests you, look no further. If drinking coffee in the morning on your lanai watching the whales and turtles sounds good, it could be you. And if you like to surf, your own private winter break.
Our "surf shack" is not like the rest. Situated in a small complex(only 36 units), our end unit with private entrance sets us apart and makes for the most desirable 1 bdrm condo. Larger and with a special side window (the only condo), the "surf shack" is open and light. Big wood sliders let you enjoy the total view of the islands of Molokai and Lanai. Decorated in a "pottery barn meets polynesia" style, you will feel right at home.
A bright, bigger kitchen with all the tools and a BBQ right off your lanai has all the makings for a romantic candlelight dinner oceanfront. Nice tiled bathroom with a big shower, great to use after a day on our sandy beach. And now high speed internet, all for $160/night
Here's what some recent guests had to say:
Lindsay
"We had a WONDERFUL time. The condo was just what we were looking for-peaceful, quiet, relaxing and away from the crowds. You have it decorated so cute too with everything we needed. We snorkeled, layed in the sun, watched turtles, and ate on the lanai at sunset-what more could you want! You guys have an amazing place! The next time we are in Maui we DEFINATELY want to stay again!"
We know you have choices. Look at our pictures, compare them with others. I think you will see what we see. And please, check out the comments of our other guests too. If location and amenites are important, and you want the best value for your vacation, the "surf shack"is the one!

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2000
I have lived in California my whole life but Maui was always a special place for me and my husband. We traveled to Maui for vacation almost every year of our marriage (32 years) and in 2000 we finally decided to buy a condo of our own. That is how we ended up with our beloved surf shack. For the first 6 years we kept it for ourselves ( let friends and family use it). It was my husband Daniel's favorite place in the whole world. Sadly, he passed away last year. One of his surfboards decorates a wall in the shack. If you see a rainbow while you are there, it is Daniel wishing you a fond aloha.
Why the Owner Chose Honokowai
When I was 19 I spent a year in Lahaina. Ever since, west Maui has been special in my heart. My husband was a surfer and we spent our honeymmon on Maui. In 2000 when we bought the shack there were very few oceanfront 1 bedroom condos in West Maui. The surf shack was 1 of 5 for sale in the area. We were lucky to get it and the rest is history
The Unique Benefits of this Condominium
The surf shack is located in a small, quiet complex. It is at the very end so it is very private. I love to sit on the lanai in the early morning, drinking coffee and watch the resident turtles out in front. There is a great farmers market down the street. There are many regular guests that visit the Lokelani year after year. It makes for nice pupu parties
