Maui Resort Rentals: Honua Kai Hokulani 837 - Stunning 8th Floor Ocean View Studio
This spacious oceanview studio provides awe-inspiring views of the Pacific Ocean and Maui's neighbor island, Lanai, from its prime 8th-floor vantage point nestled in the Hokulani interior courtyard.
Relax and reconnect in the ample living space fully appointed for your enjoyment. This outstanding 8th-floor oceanview studio suite can accommodate up to four guests in its king-sized bed and full-size pullout sofa. As day turns into evening, relax and recharge, draw a bath in the soaking tub and invite in the last rays of the day.
The glass lanai doors fully open, allowing four people to comfortably enjoy the stunning view. This suite has a southern exposure, which equates to more sun and less direct wind, generating the perfect balance for tropical air conditioning. In this suite, opulence and comfort are the constant, gracefully interwoven for your happiness and relaxation.
We encourage you to express your culinary creativity in the well-appointed kitchen. The space is fully equipped with stainless steel Bosch appliances and granite countertops, and we have provided every appliance & utensil to prepare the perfect meal or refreshment... just bring the ingredients.
Enjoy your meals on the spacious lanai or dine indoors in the climate-controlled air conditioning. In addition, our commercial-grade Vitamix blender lends itself well to preparing creative libations or smoothies with fresh local produce.
Take pleasure in spending your days at the resort’s three-acre aquatic playground. With four separate swimming pools, a waterslide, waterfalls, fountains, and four hot tubs, there will be no shortage of options for you and your loved ones to enjoy.
When it is time for a bite to eat, Honua Kai is home to the popular Duke’s Beach House, which serves breakfast, lunch, dinner, and cocktails. Duke’s specializes in serving up Hawaiian-inspired cuisine using locally sourced ingredients and freshly caught seafood. Should you wish to enjoy a refreshment by the water, poolside service is available. For coffee, sandwiches, and other grab-and-go items, including beach gear and souvenirs, visit the Whalers General Store conveniently located in the Konea Tower lobby.
A state-of-the-art fitness center is located in the Konea Tower, perfect for guests looking to maintain their workout routine during their stay.
Should you feel like pampering yourself with a refreshing massage or treatment, head to the Mana Ola Spa. This sanctuary within the resort weaves Hawaiian-inspired themes and ingredients into its wide array of signature treatments. Revitalize your senses with a Hawaiian Lomi Lomi Massage, Pohaku Massage, or Purifying Ocean Mineral Facial.
If you wish to avoid excessive baggage fees from the airlines, consider packing lighter and utilizing the washer and dryer in the residence. Free upgraded 300 Mbps high-speed Wi-Fi is available and included with your stay. Complimentary booster seats, high chairs, and futons are also available upon request (based on availability).
Honua Kai occupies 38 pristine beachfront acres on the shores of Kaʻanapali’s North Beach, so you’ll literally be just steps away from the tranquility of Maui’s shoreline. Stroll out to the beach to touch your toes in the soft sand or take a refreshing dip in the Pacific Ocean. An “Ohana Play Package” including beach chairs, BBQ equipment, and a portable cooler is provided complimentary.
If during your stay you require assistance or advice about the surrounding area or the suite, rest assured that you’ll be swiftly taken care of with aloha by one of our friendly and knowledgeable liaisons - hand-picked from West Maui’s leading luxury hotels. Help will never be far away because our offices are ideally located directly across the street.
*Please note that Honua Kai is located in a hotel-zoned area meant for tourism and is thus safe from Maui's pending short-term rental ban affecting apartment-zoned areas.*

Aloha Susan and mahalo for your comments. We're glad that you enjoyed the resort's amenities, ocean front pools, and great beach. It's nice to hear all the staff were courteous and responsive. We hope to see you again. With aloha, MRR
If you’re looking to a place to watch the whales from the balcony this is the place!! Early morning and late afternoon were the best but there wasn’t a time when I didn’t see some whale activity. Everything about the room was as described. We had an issue with the air conditioner not working when we arrived. The host was very responsive and the issue was resolved quickly.

Aloha Kirsten ~ Mahalo for your comments. We're glad you loved the resort and condo. We don't provide ocean-going equipment for liability reasons and are sorry to disappoint you in this regard. We hope to see you again someday. With aloha, MRR
My new husband and I stayed here for 6 days during our honeymoon and the property was fantastic! The place was spacious and had a wonderful view of the resort and the ocean. Plenty of pools and Duke's drinks to keep us happy and a short drive to Lahaina and other fun areas. Will definitely be back!
We had a wonderful time. The location is perfect to walk on the boardwalk or go to the beach. We enjoyed the pools and Dukes. The property management was very helpful and the checkin process was easy. The condo is beautiful and well taken care of. Thanks so much.

Great Stay!
We just returned from a great stay at this lovely condo. The condo is immaculately maintained and tastefully furnished, and is incredibly well stocked by the owners--the kitchen has everything in addition to the mere basics, including olive oil, balsamic vinegar, a full spice rack, to insulated mugs, and all sizes of baggies. There is even a boogie board and beach bag for use during your stay. The area is great, and we would absolutely return on another trip to Maui!

Thanks Hollie for the review. Glad you had a great time. Hope to see you back again one day.

We enjoyed watching the whales from our balcony, it was a better view than we expected. Chairs and cooler were a nice addition. The only small thing for a family who enjoys bbq, the kitchen wasn’t fully equipped.
Would definitely recommend this unit!

Room was clean, modern, and laid out well. Photos accurately reflect the space. Customer service was outstanding! Special shot out to the manager, Chris, who was very attentive. We will be returning soon!

Stunning Studio!
We stayed at Bruno's little best kept secret for 4 nights and it was amazing! This condo has absolutely everything you need! so well equipped i wish i wouldn't have packed half the stuff i did. Great location, easy access to the beach. LOVED opening the lanai doors at night and listening to the ocean. Don't hesitate to book this outstanding condo! can't wait to come back next year! Thanks Bruno!

Loved everything but there wasn’t bedding for the pull out couch. We asked the front desk for a blanket and we’re curtly denied with the explanation, “We don’t deal with vrbo/condos.”

Aloha Adrianna and mahalo for your comments. We're glad you loved everything at the resort. The sofa bed linens are typically located in the coffee table/chest and we're sorry if you didn't find them. The front desk is managed by outrigger hotels and as such does not service private condos. Should you stay with us in the future, please note our guest experience team is available daily from 8am to 8pm to assist our guests. We hope to see you again. With warm aloha, The Maui Resort Rentals ohana

Best vacation rental! Exceeded expectations!
3rd time staying at Honua Kai. Twice used VRBO and once the hotel directly. VRBO has better rooms with superior location and views. I've seen all properties from Kapalua to Lahaina and Honua Kai is best for amenities and condition of condos. Way better grounds, kitchens, bathrooms and appliances. Most other ones are cramped or dated! This unit was fully loaded so generously equipped with more than you could ever ask or imagine!! A top chef would be more than satisfied with all the kitchen supplies! The view, the ambiance the beach the pool all super great! You won't find anything better!! Luxury at a reasonable price! Aloha enjoy!!!
