My family and I had a fantastic stay at Lori's apartment. It was clean, spacious (for 4 adults, 1 toddler, and 1 infant), and the lanai had amazing views at all times of the day -- we spent so much time out there! We would love to come back any time we're back in beautiful Maui.

Oceanfront condo

The property and condo were very nice and clean! Great location, out of the way of the busy tourist areas! Walking distance to a few food/beer locations. Only issue you could have if its hotter in Maui during the summer. No air-conditioning in the condo. We were good because of it being Feb. You get a great, cool breeze with the doors and windows open!! Great view on balcony! Watched whales every day on our patio!! The unit has everything you need! Everyone was great to deal with for our booking! Simple process!

This is a beautiful 8th floor corner unit. Tastefully decorated, fully equipped kitchen, two sizable baths, two large bedrooms with king size beds, large lanai with very comfy furniture. We had a small hiccup upon checking in but Adam the manager and the owner were very reactive in a quick manner. The location was convenient. There is no direct beach access, just a 2-3 minute walk so no disappointment. There is no air conditioning but there are so many windows and ceiling fans that the condo was comfortable day and night. The view is beautiful and the sun sets directly in front. If we return, we will surely stay here again. We miss it already!

Great location

The property was very nice with an exceptional view that was perfect for watching whales from the lanai. The place is kind of small but this was noted on the description. The toilets, while functional, need to be replaced. Also, there was no hot tub as noted in the description. A good value for the price.

Right when we walked into the condo we were blown away. It’s beautiful, spacious, comfortable and the views are breathtaking. It was quite hot when we were there but there are plenty of fans and breeze to keep you comfortable. Kitchen and bathrooms were very well stocked. Great beach out front where we say turtles swimming everyday. Communication, check in and out was super easy. Also easy walking to a strip mall with grocery and food. Will stay here again!

Great place for a relaxing Maui vacay

This was our first time in Maui, and we were very pleased we landed here. We explored all of the island, and really enjoyed where this condo was located… central to most of the things we loved, good neighborhood, great coffee shop nearby, nice beach front, amazing view, lots of sea turtles. The condo was just as described for the most part. It’s on the 8th floor, and the owners were very thoughtful in putting a locking metal screen door on the front so you can really harness the trade wind breeze that comes through. They’ve also loaded the place with fans, so you can always have good air flow. This was a great place for two couples, with the two en suite bed and baths. Nice kitchen, comfy beds. Also loved that there was a washer and dryer. The one thing I would say was a bit unexpected, though not a dealbreaker, is that the building sits perpendicular to the next building with all its balconies. This means you hear everyone on their balcony, and it can get loud. I’d recommend earplugs to help you sleep at night. Also, be aware that the front bedroom really needs the doors and windows open to keep airflow. This limits the amount of privacy you have, but as long as you are staying with considerate people, it works well. Lori was a dream to communicate with, and the on-island contact, Adam, was also incredibly responsive and pleasant. Overall, I highly recommend Lori’s place!

Great Stay

We were very pleased with the condo. The pictures are exactly what it is. Nice to have 2 king size beds when there were two couples. The bathrooms were also great with walk-in showers. The view from the deck were fantastic and so nice to fall asleep to the sound of the waves. Adam reached out to us immediately, my only request was the need for wine glasses which he delivered to us on our last day, but at least there are glasses for the next people that stay. All in all (except for noisy neighbours who let there kids screen at 6AM) it was a great place to stay. Well stocked with beach towels and beach chairs. Thanks for all of it, another great Hawaii memory for us.

Great hosts!

The condo was as stated on the listing. It has a direct water view. You will also see all your neighbors balconies but everyone was respectful of noise. The bedrooms were a good size. The owners keep this unit well stocked. There was a nice gift basket when we arrived with coffee and cookies and various treats. The balcony is a good size. Very good communication with the owners and staff. There is no air conditioning so be aware it does get quite warm in the condo. The winds don’t really help much unless you feel safe leaving your entry door open all night. They do supply you with a lot of fans to help cool you down. I would have given this a five star if there were A/C The owners were responsive and helpful. They even got us an early check in. We never used the pool but it is kept very clean. Even the grills by the pool were thoroughly cleaned every day. Nice location.

About the host

Host profile image
My profile photo I'm cuddling with my baby "Kona"❤️ named after the one of the other beautiful Hawaiian islands. We are so excited to host you at our beautiful Hololani condo. We live in Seattle and Hawaii. My husband and I started Goldstar Vacation - Maui because we really enjoy travel and hospitality. We strive to give every guest a Gold Star Vacation experience. We stay at this Hololani unit quite often to ensure that it is in great shape. In Hawaiian, Hololani means “Gone to Heaven” which is exactly how you'll feel. It is decorated with real Hawaiian art and you'll get a true Hawaiian experience at this Hololani penthouse. The Hawaiian trade-winds add to the experience and are amazing throughout the unit. Hawaiian trade-winds signify freedom of movement and provide a cooling benefit year round. We look forward to getting the chance to host you for your trip to Maui. Mahalo.

Why they chose this property

Kahana stole my heart the moment I discovered it — it’s that sweet spot on Maui where life feels just a little slower, a little calmer, and a whole lot more magical. Nestled between the iconic beaches of Napili and Kaanapali, Kahana is like Maui’s best-kept secret. It’s close enough to all the action (if you want it!) but tucked away enough to feel like your own peaceful paradise.

Kahana is a true local neighborhood with a laid-back vibe, where you’ll find friendly faces, ocean breezes, and that irresistible feeling of "aloha" everywhere you go. You’ll wake up to the sound of waves and watch some of the most incredible sunsets right from the shore. And don’t get me started on the sea turtles — they love this spot as much as we do!

One of the things I love most about Kahana is its charm and walkability. You can stroll along the oceanfront path to grab a coffee at Miso Phat Sushi (a local favorite!) or indulge in a farm-to-table dinner at Maui Brewing Co., which is just minutes from the condo. Feeling like something casual? Head to Captain Jack's at the Sands of Kahana — only a short walk away — for beachfront dining with your toes in the sand and the sound of waves crashing nearby.

Kahana feels like real Hawaii. It’s not flashy, and that’s exactly why I love it. It’s the kind of place where you’ll find hidden gems, meet locals at the farmers’ markets, and spend your days barefoot, exploring tide pools or grabbing poke from a neighborhood spot. It’s where you can still find a quiet beach all to yourself — and that’s a rare treasure on Maui!

I chose Kahana because it feels like home — relaxed, welcoming, and a little wild in the best way. Plus, it’s perfectly situated for adventure. Whether you want to snorkel at Napili Bay, surf at Honolua Bay, or sip mai tais in Lahaina, you’re never far from the magic.

And hey, if the turtles love it here, you know it must be special. 🐢💙

What makes this property unique

Wow… where do I begin? This oceanfront gem feels like a cruise ship anchored on land, with nothing but the vast, breathtaking ocean before you. What makes this condo truly special is its authentic Hawaiian charm. It was originally furnished by a lovely local woman who lived on Maui for years before returning to the mainland to be closer to family. Her spirit and aloha remain in the space, giving it that warm, “ohana” (family) vibe that feels like home.

We’ve made a few thoughtful upgrades to enhance your experience. Both bedrooms now feature brand-new king-size beds with luxurious bedding — I personally adore bamboo sheets for their softness and cool comfort. We also rearranged some of the decor to make the space feel even more inviting, and yes, we added a large, high-quality TV… though let’s be honest, with all the beauty outside, who’s watching TV in Hawaii?

This property exudes the essence of island living and is perfectly located for adventure and relaxation. You can snorkel and swim right out front, or hop in the car and drive just five minutes along the stunning Honoapiilani Road to Napili Bay — one of my absolute favorite beaches on the island. Head the other direction for about eight minutes, and you’ll find yourself on the iconic Kaanapali Beach.

If you prefer a leisurely stroll, walk along the oceanfront path, and in just three minutes, you’ll reach the Sands of Kahana and the Beach House Restaurant, where you can dine with your toes in the sand, gazing out at the Pacific.

Hololani offers a true Hawaiian experience — peaceful, beautiful, and close to everything that makes Maui unforgettable. We can’t wait to share this little slice of paradise with you! 🌺
