We loved our stay! Carol thought of everything, and was super responsive on any questions that we had. The condo was the cleanest we’ve ever been in, ahas comfortable beds, annd very well stocked kitchen. And the view is gorgeous! We had one ceiling fan that wasn’t working, and someone was sent out immediately to fix it, even though we didn’t ask for that. Wonderful stay, and we will be back!

Mahalo Beth for your lovely review. I’m so so glad you and your family enjoyed your stay. I look forward to hearing from when you are planning your next visit to Maui!
Aloha,

Our family had such a wonderful stay! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by how clean and well-maintained everything was, it really made it easy to relax and feel at home right away.The location couldn’t have been better. Being right on the beach was an absolute dream. We loved waking up to the sound of the waves and being just steps away from the sand. It made spontaneous beach time, sunset walks, and morning coffee with an ocean view part of our daily routine.The condo itself was thoughtfully equipped with plenty of amenities that made our stay comfortable and convenient. Everything we needed was right there, which made traveling so much easier.Overall, this place exceeded our expectations. We made amazing memories here and would absolutely love to come back again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable Maui getaway!

Mahalo for the lovely review Ebon! I’m so glad you and your family enjoyed your stay. Now that you are home I hope you will spread the word that Maui is not “destroyed,” despite gossip to the contrary.
This condo is amazing- book this immediately!!! Plenty of sleeping space, beautiful views, equipped with beach chairs, cooler, grill equipment, full kitchen to cook anything, upgraded bathrooms, very comfortable beds. Very central location which is perfect for exploring the island. We loved the 9 nights we spent in Papakea K404!

Many mahalos for the lovely review! I’m really glad you enjoyed your stay. We are able to visit our home a few times a year so have stocked it with everything we need to feel comfortable. And our wonderful housekeeper and property manager keep a close eye on everything when we are off island.
I hope you will visit again soon.
Carol and Mike — and their beautiful home in Maui — were absolutely amazing! Carol was incredibly communicative and helpful throughout the entire process. The home was in an excellent location, in great condition, and fit our large family perfectly. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook any type of meal, and the view from the balcony was truly breathtaking. We had plenty of room and felt completely comfortable during our stay. We will definitely be back! Mahalo!!!

Mahalo for your lovely review! I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay. I hope you will contact me next time you and your family are planning a stay on Maui. Aloha! 🌺
The place was clean and equipped with everything that we needed for our stay. Our host also left very helpful information regarding the places to eat , shop and sites to see. Very nice property. We were admiring the attention to the details that the grounds crew would put in to the care of the grounds and the pool. Beautiful view of the sunset right out the back door. The beaches in the surrounding area were beautiful and great for snorkeling. Many Sea Turtles and different species of fish. I would definitely recommend this place and will come back again.

This condo had everything it promised! It was so clean and comfortable, we were so happy with everything! The view is unbeatable. Very short walk to the beach just off to the left with a big shady tree! There were beach chairs, umbrella and coolers to use as well. The resort is very lovely and well maintained. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub in the evenings. The owner was great with communication and she is very friendly. When we come back to Maui we hope this unit is available!

We had a great stay at Papakea, it was the perfect spot for our family. The condo had everything we needed and was exactly as described. Great location! The host was great at communicating and provided great suggestions for restaurants and things to do. Highly recommend!
This condo is exactly as described. It is on the 4th floor (top floor) with a nice porch overlooking the pool and views of the ocean. It is well equipped with lots of nice beach chairs, beach/pool towels, plenty of dishes and flatware, bbq tools, nice wine glasses and even travel coffee cups which was an unexpected surprise and we actually used!! Walking distance to a nice shopping center with market, a shave ice store, and Slappy Cakes (fun breakfast). Carol was so nice and reached out during our stay to make sure everything was working for us. This place is a gem and we hope to return again soon!

It's hard to believe such a beautiful place exists, but it does! Papakea K404 is exactly as it looks in photos, and we were happy with our stay! Also it's within walking distance to a grocery store, so that was a bonus!

Our stay was amazing. The location was excellent, close to amazing beaches, restaurants, and the view was AMAZING! The owner was incredible, checking on us, especially when the fires started. She even tried to find us alternate accommodations when we had to be evacuated from front street.

Loved our stay! The property is great/as advertised and the location is perfect. Minutes from Lahina or a short drive if you want to head up around the North Shore. Great dining and activities are close and there's a grocery store across the street if needed. Very comfortable for our party of six. Would definitely book here again.

About the host
Hosted by Carol Hatley TA-031-554-5600-01
We went to Maui on our honeymoon 30 years ago and have gone at least once a year every year since. We always dreamed of having our own home on the island and were lucky enough to find Papakea 20 years ago. Papakea is one of the few remaining resorts on Maui that still maintains the feel of old Hawaii. It's quiet, with beautiful landscaping, plenty of open areas and a magnificent ocean view. We have enjoyed many wonderful vacations here with friends and family over the years.
