About this property

Oceanfront Papakea Top Floor Corner Condo with Spectacular Lanai Views!


Wake up to sweeping ocean views and unforgettable sunsets from your private lanai.

Experience Maui from this top-floor, corner oceanfront condo at Papakea Resort, where panoramic views stretch across the Pacific to the neighboring islands of Moloka‘i and Lāna‘i. From your private lanai, watch turtles, monk seals, and seasonal humpback whales glide through the water below. Inside, the condo offers bright, updated interiors with island-inspired décor, a fully equipped kitchen, and two beautifully remodeled bathrooms. Whether you’re sipping coffee at sunrise or toasting the sunset, this peaceful oceanfront retreat provides the perfect setting to relax and reconnect in the spirit of aloha.

Papakea Resort captures the best of classic Maui—13 oceanfront acres of tropical gardens, koi ponds, and palm-lined paths that lead to two pools, hot tubs, putting greens, and pool-side BBQ areas. Guests appreciate the peaceful setting just north of Kaanapali, with beaches, restaurants, and grocery options all within walking distance. Whether you spend your days exploring the island or simply unwinding by the water’s edge, Papakea’s relaxed atmosphere and warm hospitality make it an unforgettable place to stay.

Why Guests Love It

Guests often tell us that photos don’t do the view justice—the ever-changing light, the sound of waves, and the privacy of being on the top floor make this condo truly special. The setting is peaceful yet convenient, with everything you need close by. Many return year after year for the same reason: the view never gets old.

Unbeatable Stay

Our stay here was absolutely excellent. The location is perfect—just steps from the ocean with the soothing sound of waves to wake up to each morning. You can’t beat the proximity to the beach, and we loved being able to walk right out and soak it all in.The property itself was clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay.

Great property in great location

The property was even better than we had imagined. The sunset view from the corner unit was awesome! The location was perfect for the activities we had planned on Maui. The kids loved the pool and hot tub and the upscale Weber grills around the pool were a bonus. There was a lot of beach equipment included and plenty of kitchen appliances & utensils available. The hosts were very responsive to all of our questions and we had a very enjoyable experience.
