Beautiful view, great location, and resort grounds are very well kept. Enjoyed whale watching from the lanai, the pool and hot tub, the grills by the pool, and played pickle ball. No beach but you can access it right next door.
The condo was well furnished with all the things we could possibly need to have a fabulous time. Plenty of towels, beach gear, and a well stocked kitchen. Beautiful property with a wonderful view.
The unit was filthy. Bed was not made, we had to wash the sheets. Walls and door covered with dirt and grime. Closet smelled of rotten fish. Pillows and mattresses are very old. We checked out early because we just couldn't stay there any longer. Host was less than helpful.

Aloha Shelley,
We recently saw your review and were sorry to hear that your stay did not meet expectations. We truly wish we had the opportunity to address any concerns during your visit.
Did you happen to reach out to Dave, our property manager? He is always available and happy to assist guests with any issues that may arise during their stay. We confirmed that the unit was fully cleaned by the team prior to your arrival. Historically, they have done a great job with their cleanings.
Regarding the odor you mentioned, we have not previously experienced or received reports of any foul smells in the unit. It is possible that items such as sand toys may not have been thoroughly cleaned by prior guests, which could occasionally contribute to an odor, but this has not been a recurring issue.
We also want to note that we have not received any other reports regarding the walls being unclean.
We also do not have a record indicating an early checkout.
We appreciate your feedback and will certainly keep it in mind as we continue to maintain and improve the experience for our guests.

Absolutely wonderful! It was such a calm, peaceful, and beautiful place to stay. The Papakea resort wasn't busy and chaotic like other resorts.Owners were so very helpful and great to work with!
We stayed at the Westin Nanea for a week and then stayed three days at Papakea Resort. All 5 of us preferred the laid back atmosphere at Papakea and the fact that it was so much smaller. Absolutely beautiful grounds and we loved sitting on the chairs at the edge of the ocean with no sand!!
Really enjoyed our time in Maui at the Papakea resort. Excellent communication with the property owners when we had an issue. The view from the balcony was spectacular.
Our 2nd stay at Papakea, even better then our 1st because we brought family to this beautiful island. The whales were on point and showing off to us. Great time at your resort-also saw sea turtles crossing the resort shoreline. Perfect stay. Just perfect.
We had a great time! The unit was awesome and location is perfect!!! We woke up to stunning views and lots of food and shopping options were within walking distance. Will definitely be back!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The condo was exactly as advertised and the views are beautiful from the balcony. The pool and hot tub were nice. The staff was friendly. The grocery is in walking distance and there are several great restaurants close by. We had a wonderful time.
