We were so blown away by the view from the moment we walked in! This property is so perfectly located. It is right on top of the beach. Turtles, rays and seals swim by to say hello. The neighboring beaches, shops and restaurants are a short walk or short drive. And the items within the home are perfectly placed and very thoughtfully selected. We absolutely loved our 8 night stay.

The unit was clean and had a beautiful view. The unit was very hot. The central air did not cool like we are used to. The only way to keep the condo tolerable was to close all the blinds during the day, which defeats the purpose of the great view. We enjoyed the condo at night once it cooled off, but there’s not enough comfortable seating. It sleeps 8, but only 4 fit on the couch. We had 5 adults which left one person sitting on a hard kitchen chair or backless barstool if we all wanted to hang out together. We also paid extra for late check out, but was locked out of our room. We ended up spending time on our last day at the front desk and on the phone trying to get this fixed. The cleaning person also entered the room when we weren’t there. We asked for a partial credit for this inconvenience and did not receive one,

AMAZING STAY!!!!

This place is absolutely amazing and perfect for families. It has more than enough space and is equipped with everything you need to have a comfortable stay. Walking distance from stores and food and just a 12 minute drive to Front Street. Breathtaking view. So amazing falling asleep and waking up to the sound of the waves.

Very nice property, view was amazing.

Wonderful ocean front property. We were a family of six and had plenty of room for our stay. Saw whales right off the lanai and the ocean view was amazing. Ron Roos was very easy to work with and everything went very smooth. Love Maui!

Gorgeous oceanfront views

This condo was a fabulous place to stay in Maui. The views from the bedroom and balcony were stunning. Waking up every morning to the pink sunrise sky was so calming. We saw sea turtles and whales from our balcony everyday and has easy access to the private beach. I would definitely stay here again!

Great Location - Can't beat the views

We loved the views from the condo. We ate on the lanai every morning and watched the turtles swimming in the ocean. We even got to see a pod of dolphins one afternoon. The unit had everything we needed, including beach towels and snorkel gear.

Lovely spot

The Papakea is one of our favorite places to stay on the island. Close to everything we want, this condo worked great. The air in each room is essential for us - we love the island breezes but they are not enough to cool us! Great master bedroom with lots of room and beautiful view of the ocean. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

We have stayed in Maui many times and this property we will definitely return to! The views are priceless and the grounds were awesome. We had plenty to do and we could walk to everything we needed. Beach and pool right outside! Air conditioner in rooms, well stocked kitchen, and good parking. We had a wonderful time! Pickle Ball courts were a bonus!

Paradise

The condo was perfect for our family of 6. The ocean view was spectacular to have coffee in the morning on the lanai to watching the sunset every evening with a glass of wine. Falling asleep to the waves of the ocean was so relaxing. The location was perfect for the many activities we enjoyed to lounging at the pool or playing shuffleboard on property. The condo was very clean and was equipped with plenty of kitchen gadgets to make meals. Mahalo!

Great Unit in Great Location

We've been coming to Maui for 25 years and love this area. Especially after staying in this particular condo. Right on the water with full amenities and great A/C for those muggy days! Loft bedroom is very usable with full bath upstairs. Will definitely stay here again. Property Manager (Ron Ross) is very accommodating and responsive to the few issues we had.

Great, Great, Great!

Great unit Great property and location Great owner 3 Greats, overall the unit itself was exactly as described and easily worked for our family of 5. The unit has been recently redone and shows with a newer kitchen and bathrooms. Oceanfront with beautiful views the entire time we were there. There is an accessible beach within steps....not a ton of sand but sitting up on the lawn while the boys swam and played below worked just fine. We've stayed at this complex twice before and by far this was the nicest unit we've stayed in. Ron was easy to deal with and responsive to all our questions and needs.
