Family Vacation

Was a wonderful family vacation for all 12 of us and the resort was a perfect blend of condos for our whole family which allowed us to all be close/walking distance and same floor but have a relaxing place to go back to at the end of the day. Condos were everything they said they were and had everything we needed to make meals/BBQ every evening for our family. Definitely will be back.
Response from VrboOwner on Oct 21, 2026
Jake, thank you for the five stars, and what a joy to host all 12 of you together! We are so glad the condos had everything you needed for those family barbecues. We would love to welcome you all back soon.

Wonderful family destination

This is our second year vacationing at Honua Kai. A wonderful set up for families— our young kids love the pool and easy beach access (and feeding koi fish). Honua Kai has a lot of activity but is not overwhelming. This unit in particular had a nice layout that suited our family of 5 well.

Beautiful, Clean, Updated Condo with Lovely Grounds -- Minor Accessibility Inconvenience

We really enjoyed our stay at this condo! The unit was clean, updated, and well maintained, making it a comfortable and relaxing place to spend our time in Maui. Even the little details were appreciated, like the soft, fresh towels rather than the rough, worn towels you sometimes encounter in vacation rentals. The condo had a lovely garden view with a partial ocean view, which provided a beautiful tropical setting. The pool and surrounding grounds were equally impressive -- beautifully maintained, clean, and inviting. We especially appreciated being able to find a lounge chair by the pool every day without having to compete for seating. Having a Starbucks right in the lobby was another convenient bonus! The only real downside was getting to and from the condo. The closest elevator was out of service for maintenance, which meant either taking the stairs or walking around to the opposite side of the neighboring building to access another elevator. This made coming and going somewhat cumbersome, especially with luggage or after a long day out. Overall, this was a very pleasant stay. The cleanliness, updated accommodations, beautiful grounds, and relaxing pool area more than made up for the temporary elevator inconvenience. We would happily stay here again, particularly once the elevator is back in service!

Great Experience

We had a great experience. KMB was very responsive whenever we needed anything. The condo itself was great - perfect for a family with two kids. We had a view of the ocean which was a nice bonus! The chairs, cooler, boogie boards and umbrella were very useful. We’d definitely use KMB again!

Upon arrival our room was available at check in, clean and stocked with all the basics needed for a great stay. We had absolutely no issue our entire stay. Our family of 5 slept comfortably and the kitchen had all of the basics needed for meals to be cooked in the room. The resort grounds were beautiful and well maintained. My family is looking forward to a returning for another stay! Thank you!

Outstanding!

Wonderful unit. I stayed here with my two daughters and it was outstanding! Unit was very clean when we arrived and even had plenty of beach chairs and umbrella and wake boards. Keyless entry makes it simple and same with the towel locker process without having to deal with card /towel passes like some resorts have in place. The grounds are beautiful and all the guests and staff we met on property were super nice and welcoming. Dukes on property is a bonus. Great food and drinks. Snorkeling right on the beach was great we saw many turtles and fish. For sure we would rent this unit again with KBM. Super friendly staff and easy check in and out process.

Our stay

It was very family friendly and we enjoyed our stay. We were disappointed with the washer and dryer situation as a family of five. The ventless dryer took all day to dry clothes. We also thought the carpet looked like it needed to be replaced in our unit. There were geese/oil type stains. And we also thought that if we were there for 12 days that we should have been given cleaning service at least once during that time. The construction was also annoying but we knew that when we rented the property. Kids had a great time overall and we would still recommend Honua Kaimaybe just a different unit.

6/10 Okay

Nice place to stay with little ones. Pricey but everything is on Maui. Shop at Costco if possible.

The condo was nice but needs a little attention. Bedding was well used but clean. Pillows need to be replaced but were useable. Condo was clean if you didn't look at the baseboards and doors. Cleaning staff probably do a good job with the amount of time they are given, but every now and then they need time for the details. The dryer is not vented so every beach towel took forever to dry and you can't hang anything on the lanai. It would be much more efficient if this condo belonged to the "Towel Club" at the pools where you could just exchange the wet ones. The price of running the dryer all day must be enormous but there is no other option. Hanging towels in the bathrooms does NOT dry them. The kitchen was well equipped. Sansei is the best for a night out. The staff are great and welcoming. The coffee shop on site sells really good homemade guacamole at a reasonable price!

Aloha and so happy you had such a fabulous vacation! When you join us next year please make note of the 'About you Villa' section in your arrival details which provides very useful hints and tips to ensure you stay is as pleasurable as possible. Some items covered in your arrival guide include: -- Feel free to swap the pillows on the bed with pillows in the closet which are firmer to suite your comfort preference -- Housekeeping cleans all surfaces extra well upon every guest departure in construction facing villas due to the constant dust produced by the job site (construction Feb 2015 - May 2017). These surfaces include all baseboards, door jambs, fans, vents, appliances, tile, floors, and lanai furniture. While we encourage you to open your lanai doors wide to enjoy the Maui tropical breezes, dust will accumulate on surfaces such as baseboards during your visit if open during construction hours. This issue will be resolved in May 2017 when construction is completed. -- You may secure towels at the pool (using your wrist band) instead of using the towels we provide for the beach to avoid drying time See you next year, KBM Hawaii

Our condo was clean, roomy, and well stocked!

Thank you for helping make our Maui vacation great! Our condo at Honua Kai was clean, roomy, well stocked with beach towels, snorkel gear, swim toys etc. Also, there were baby/toddler items for guest with little ones. Our condo was just as it looked on the website and the views were fantastic. KBM was very easy to work with, returning phone calls and emails quickly and were prompt to email contracts and reminders. Check in was super easy and quick. (Which we appreciated after a long day of travel.) We would definitely book through KBM again.

I would highly recommend renting at the Honua Kai via KBM Resorts

If your Australian looking for upmarket MAUI accommodation at a reduced price then read this review.. We live in Sydney Australia and had been looking around for reasonable accommodation for our family to stay in on our holiday to Maui. We were just about to book directly with the Honua Kai resort and a TripAdvisor search directed our attention to KBM Hawaii Luxury Real Estate and Vacation Rentals. We found information about a 2 bed self contained apartment ( we rented 242) ( they also have several apartments on their books 1, 2 & 3 bedroom ). My husband was very concerned about us paying thousands $$ for accommodation to an overseas real estate company we don't know. I did quite a lot of research and checked a number of reviews on line left by other people and decided to take a chance and pay the $2900 US for 7 nights accommodation on line via KBM website. Booking directly via the resort was going to cost approx $1000 US more for 7 nights so the savings made it quite attractive. KBM cost also includes a small hire car via enterprise car rentals. We paid an extra $27 per day and upgraded our hire car to a Mustang convertible. Because we live in Sydney Australia our car insurance doesn't extend to hire car overseas like it does for residents of the US so we took up The comprehensive waiver cover at an extra $29 per day when we picked up the car. This gave us peace of mind because if anything was to happen to the car there would be no XS and no money having to be paid out. We found it a little difficult to get information about this it's a kind of hire car insurance cover because it's not widely used because residents of the US and have it automatically covered under their car insurance policies on their car at home. But after emailing the owner of KBM and then enterprise car hire I was able to get a copy of the insurance and what it covers before we left Australia. Payment via credit card was very easy on KBM's website. Once you've paid KBM are very good at keeping you informed and send lots of emails with step-by-step information on where to go how to pick up the rental car, how to get to the apartment etc etc. I thought that was very well done. When we arrived we were very happy indeed. The cleaners were just finishing up (as we arrived early) so we when and had a coffee downstairs in the resort cafe and when we came back the cleaners had left the door open to the unit with the keys inside. Shortly after a member of staff from KBM arrive to ensure that we had got into the room okay and everything was fine . The apartment is spacious and new looking and it a lot nicer than a 5 star hotel room we stayed in at Waikiki. We saved quite a lot of money because we were able to go next door to the supermarket and cook our own meals in the apartment kitchen. The apartment has a good size kitchen with granite bench top. Full size four seater dining room table lounge suite to seat 5 with TVs / DVD and cable TV stations All bedrooms also have new Tv's and cable channels. It has a very spacious bathroom bigger than I've seen any apartment before with a separate bath and enclosed glass shower. There is a large Veranda that extends from the master bedroom all the way out to the lounge area and that also has a four seater full dining room table and there's two chairs with footstools. In the cupboard next to the front door they also provide two sun chairs that you can take out to the beach as well as a good size esky, snorkelling gear, beach umbrella, sunscreen, six large beach towels and fly repellent They even have sandcastle making equipment for the kids. The kitchen is fully equiped including a kettle, toaster, all the cutlery and all the pots and pans, salad bowls plastic, plates and cups etc you need as well as a stainless steel oven, electric cooktop, Rangehood under the large microwave and a dishwasher. The fridge also has filtered water and ice maker which is very handy. There's another cupboard in adjacent to the kitchen which has the washer and dryer front loader that you can use and they supply enough washing detergent to do five or six loads. There was plenty dishwasher tablets under the sink more than enough to run it a few times a day every day of your stay. Enters the groceries are pretty much have to bring everything from the supermarket yourself as they don't include much they did however leave a salt-and-pepper a container of spices and a small container of honey other than that there is no food or condiments provided. So you need to get cooking oil or cooking spray and your normal food supplies. It might be beneficial for the owners of the apartment to provide some condiments normally when I stay in this types of self contained accommodation in Australia the owners generally supply ketchup ( or as we call it in Australia tomatoe sauce ) cooking oil etc. There is free underground parking also accessible for the apartment. The resort itself has three swimming pools which are lovely and a waterslide for the children which my seven-year-old absolutely loved. When you first arrive you need to go down to the information service counter near the pool to get a wristband so that the resort staff are aware you are a guest. You will need to show them your room key / security pass and they scan it on the machine to check your a guest. This has to be done every day. I think it's to try to prevent outsiders using the resort facilities. There was washing up liquid left on the sink and some paper towels which was helpful for keeping the place clean. Make sure you bring your own international wall plugs and iPhone / iPad chargers with you as none of these are provided. Other than that it's pretty good value for money and I would highly recommend renting an apartment at the Honua Kai via KBM Hawaii Luxury Real Estate. Aloha :-)

Spring break 2022 at Honua Kai

Honua Kai is a great property with lots of amenities in a great location and we always enjoy staying there. The only draw backs this time were the trash area on the floor and backed up with trash and it seems as if they are short staffed - the hallway floors could use some cleaning too. The rest of the property including the grounds, entrances, pools, gym, and barbeque areas were great.
