IMAGINE a Hawaiian vacation at Maui’s newest full ownership resort … where the sea, sand and gentle warm breezes welcome you.
KONEA is the newest tower, with a fire bowl water feature in the courtyard to enjoy the quiet of paradise and spectacular Maui sunsets.
All the amenities of a NEW unsurpassed LUXURIOUS HOTEL combined with the comfort, spaciousness and features of a private residence with FULLY EQUIPPED KITCHEN – no wonder HONUA KAI RESORT & SPA with its 38 acres of lush, landscaped grounds containing both tranquil areas and also an expansive aquatic playground is rated as one of the top beachfront luxury resorts in Maui.
From the moment you arrive, magnificent open lobbies with ocean views greet you and the lush landscaping with fragrant gardens and water features draw you further into a resort and spa with world class distinction.
Honua Kai has something for everyone…. a stunning infinity-edge pool with cabanas, aqua loungers, pool side beverage and food service, hot tubs, swim-under waterfalls, ‘lazy river’, quiet pool, and sandy bottom pool area with water slide, activity center with rentals, 10 outdoor Viking gas grills areas and on-site gourmet market and Duke's restaurant. … all of this and more and our unit is listed at competitive prices (typically far less than booking from the resort directly!)

About Maureen and Robert Parker
Robert and Maureen live in Canada and feel really fortunate to have a place in paradise at Honua Kai Resort and Spa and to be able to connect with so many wonderful guests! Growing up, Rob’s family had vacation homes in Maui for over 30 years and his family moved to Maui for a year when Rob was 13 years old. Rob and his sister went to school at King Kamehameha in Lahaina that year. Robert now owns his own construction company and Maureen is a Registered Clinical Counsellor. After marrying, Rob and Maureen chose Maui as the perfect place to celebrate their honeymoon and later stayed at Honua Kai Resort and Spa twice with their children before purchasing from the developer in 2013. Honua Kai Resort and Spa really feels like coming home. With warm aloha, Maureen and Robert
Maureen and Robert Parker purchased this Studio in 2013
Why Maureen and Robert Parker chose Kaanapali
Honua Kai Resort and Spa on Kaanapali Beach, Maui, has everything imaginable. Maui is such an amazing place with tropical great weather all year round (voted “Best Island” Conde Nast Traveler for 19 years) and Kaanapali Beach not only has less rain than other areas of Maui, but also a beautiful five mile stretch of soft sand and crystal clear, gentle water.
What makes this Studio unique
Walking into Honua Kai Resort and Spa we feel the relaxed, aloha spirit of Hawaii. It’s a magical experience… we ease into the day with lattes or ice cream from A'ina market right in the resort and then either play at the pools, relax in the sun, go off on an adventure or find great shops to browse. We often end the day with a great home cooked feast using ingredients from Costco and local markets and end the day in a hot tub or with an evening stroll along the ocean boardwalk. We are never without our camera to capture wonderful memories to sustain us until our return to Maui.

Wonderful place to spend our special day
We were so fortunate to have found this vacation home to celebrate both my wife’s birthday and our anniversary. It was truly more beautiful than the photos show. Breakfast from the Lanai each morning was breathtaking. Maureen’s organization and input in advance made this the easiest and most enjoyable trip to Hawaii. We’ve stayed at the Honua Kai before but never treated so nicely by the owners. Absolutely nothing negative about this unit, owners or facilities. Maureen even called a couple days into our trip just to check in with us. Means a lot when the owner cares that much that we are have a pleasant experience. But it was much more than just pleasant. It was blissful, relaxing, comfortable, and extremely clean. From the beach chairs to the welcome gift, they didn’t forget a thing. Highly recommend and we will be back again. Thanks so much for sharing your home with us!!
Perfect Maui Getaway
We have stayed at Honua Kai many times but this was our first VRBO experience. It did not disappoint. Check-in through the bell desk was easy and super quick despite our late arrival time. The unit's location is great and it was clean and in perfect condition. A benefit of this unit is that it is nicely stocked with items we typically need to buy with a hotel say such as food wrap, condiments, and spices. We were also supplied with spa quality shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Similarly, the unit was stocked with beach gear that we used every day. The owners were easy to deal with and contact. We'll be staying here again!
Immaculate condo, stress free stay with a toddler!
We have ventured to Oahu and felt it was time to visit Maui. Now any parent would know that a vacation is quite different when you have a toddler in tow. I spent hours scouring for places in Maui that were “baby/toddler” friendly with the amenities that were fit for a young family as most know everything revolves around a toddler’s schedule. We went on homeaway and found that Honua Kai resort had the amenities we were looking for such as a kitchen, beachfront, and a nice pool but also across the street is a supermarket and a medical clinic!!
We wanted a unit that was well taken care of and but more importantly that it was clean since our toddler likes to play on the floor a lot and we didn’t want to worry our toddler would get sick. We spent 11 days in March during spring break at Maureen’s unit Konea 315 and I could not have dreamed of anything better. The condo was immaculate, updated and of course very clean! Vacations should be as stress free as possible and Maureen had tried her very best to do so. She takes the effort to get to know you answers all your questions promptly and checks in to make sure you have a smooth arrival but also that your stay is as pleasant as possible. The condo is well stocked with basic kitchen items including such simple things as salt and oil and sugar (the simple things are so very much appreciated). There is a binder that she keeps there that has every instruction and helpful hints for not only the unit but for suggestions on things to do in the surrounding area.
As for our toddler she was so happy in this unit. We were initially worried about the space as it is a studio unit but it is so much bigger then what we expected we were so surprised it is very spacious and the lanai as well. Our daughter was able to stretch out for hours playing even with her toys. What I loved the most is enjoying a meal on the lanai with my family and such easy clean up for our toddler as the lanai is tile floor! In addition to this all you toddler/baby mama’s we brought our guzzie perch highchair and it mounts perfectly on the kitchen counter and on the dining unit outside to enjoy those sunsets together. Maureen provides a pack and play so we didn’t have to lug our own as well as other amenities needed such as cleaning supplies and beach chairs, umbrellas, and beach mats. I could not have ask for a better host we enjoyed our stay so much that when we come back to Maui we hope to stay here again! I would 150% recommend to book this unit!
We love that you recommend our unit 150%!
Thanks for letting others know that our vacation home is immaculate, modern (Honua Kai Resort & Spa is the newest full ownership resort in Maui), meticulously clean and incredibly spacious - bigger that most one bedrooms in Maui!
We really appreciate hearing that our guests loved their stay with us
With warm aloha,
Robert & Maureen
A lovely studio condo in a beautiful resort
The Honua Kai Resort is beautiful and our condo was lovely — a perfect location in West Maui. I’d highly recommend this condo and would definitely return .
Thank you for highly recommending our unit at Honua Kai Resort & Spa – We’ll look forward to your return stay!
Mahalo,
Maureen & Rob
A beautiful property in a great location
We had such a wonderful trip and the accommodations could not have been better. Everything you need is a short walk or short drive away. The resort was outstanding and it was very convenient to have Duke's Restaurant right on the property. Our favorite part was walking down the boardwalk in the mornings and evenings. We highly recommend this unit. The hosts are wonderful!
Mahalo Sandy! Thanks for highly recommending our unit and we're so glad that your girls’ getaway to celebrate your birthday in Maui couldn’t have been better! We think our guests are wonderful too & we look forward to having you stay with us again!!
Nice property!
We really enjoyed our stay at this condo. Its in a nice location on the property and much quieter than the previous properties we rented at Honua Kai. The few problems we did have were not the fault of the owners who were very responsive when notified. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a great Maui getaway.
Thanks Cindy & Adam for your 5 star review & also for sharing that our vacation home was much quieter than the previous properties that you rented at Honua Kai! We really appreciate your comments - we also enjoy the quietness of our location! Thanks for your patience with the resort while they did the delayed final touches on the gym expansion – we hope you are able to come back soon & fully enjoy the new gym!
