Why the Owner Chose Honokowai
We love Maui, and have been coming for years. We especially love upper west Maui, where the views of the neighbor islands of Molokai and Lanai are unmatched elsewhere on Maui - or any other tropical location we have been to. The Kulakane condominiums are a small (42 units total), low-rise complex in the quiet Honokowai district, between Kaanapali and Kapalua. The historic village of Lahaina, once a whaling port, is probably the most popular tourist and shopping attraction on Maui. It is a short 10-minute drive from our condo, which allows us to enjoy it when we choose, and enjoy the quiet and privacy of Honokowai when we prefer to avoid the crowds. Two of Maui's premier golf locations, Kapalua and Kaanapali, are also within an easy 10-minute drive. Surf breaks, ranging from beginner level (Laniupoko) to advanced (Honolua Bay) are also within a 15-minute drive. The Honokowai Farmer's Market is held on MWF mornings, just 200 yards from our condo. Snorkel equipment, surfboard, mopeds, and video and video rentals are all within 1/2 mile of the condo.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
Our condo directly faces the ocean, and is just 50 feet from the water's edge. From our private lanai (balcony), we see only the ocean, the neighbor islands and the beach in front of us. The lanai is almost an extension of the living room - it has an overhanging roof and side walls and is carpetted, so you can enjoy it in any weather, including tropical sprinkles. We sometimes sit on the lanai, surfing the web on our laptops (via the free Wi-Fi network) and watching the surf in front of us.
Our condo is furnished in a more contemporary fashion than the wicker-and-bamboo furniture found in most Hawaii condos.
There is a working office with a personal computer and laser printer provided for your use. Stay in email contact with your friends back home, make your arrangements for Maui activities, take care a few business tasks (Word and Excel are loaded on the PC), or print your boarding passes or watch YouTube videos - all without having to lug your laptop along.
