Absolutely amazing!

The five of us were thrilled with our accommodations! The property was beautiful and we swam with sea turtles within 15 min of being in the cove. We loved every minute of our stay and would recommend Honokeana Cove to everyone planning to visit Maui!

Family vacation

We loved this small and friendly condo development. It was so much nicer than the other surrounding properties which are large and impersonal. The property is beautifully maintained (gardens, pool, and community BBQ are spotless). The cove is a lovely spot to snorkel or paddle board so long as the water is calm. Napili beach is a short walk away with a wonderful swimming beach.

Family friendly place!

We were having a wonderful time at this family friendly place. Easy walk to beaches and the cove had the best snorkeling. We saw lots of turtles. Sadly, our stay got interrupted by the horrific wind gusts and devastating fires on Maui. We had to evacuate. We would definitely return to this place in the future. The owners were so accommodating and very communicative.

A piece of paradise!

Our family (kids ages 10, 8, and 5) had the most incredible time staying on this beautiful cove. We rented paddle boards, paddled, snorkeled with turtles, swam, and enjoyed every sunset thoroughly! The condo was clean, beautifully remodeled, and had all the amenities needed for a wonderful week. I was quite nervous about missing air conditioning- but the beautiful breeze kept us nice and cool at night. I would recommend this beautiful location to anyone in a heartbeat!

great snowmobile vacation

The property was right on a trail. There was a lot of space for the whole family to spread out. Loved that they have queen, twin and king size beds. The beds were very comfortable. Nice big kitchen to cook in and a beautiful view of the lake. The big table was great for dining and playing games. There was enough room for our three vehicles and trailers. The sauna was used every day. We would certainly stay here again.

Relaxing getaway with beautiful setting

Love the small community here and the quiet hours. So relaxing and beautiful. The turtle and whale sightings were magical. The condo itself is great and very clean. Owner is responsive to questions. The grounds are immaculate and the managers were very helpful. Shout out to Ray for helping us out. Because they clean so well you may need to purchase cooking essentials and some paper products such as Kleenex and paper towels. We enjoyed the deck and speaking with other guests and are so sorry to leave. We would love to return here.

Perfect location

The listing is very accurate, the property sits on a great cove for snorkeling with private access for guests. It's hard to avoid bumping in to the turtles that visit the cove while you are snorkeling. Walking distance to my favorite beach on Maui, Napili Bay. The sunsets and views off the lanai are nothing short of spectacular. The lack of A/C was noticed a little bit at mid day when it warmed up in the condo, but surprisingly the breezes cooled the unit down well at night so sleeping was not an issue and the unit had several box fans as well as ceiling fans to create extra breezes as needed. Overall a "hidden gem" of a location and property as others have noted.

Turtles and teens

The floor plan was perfect for us. The 3 bed loft with bathroom made life with 3 teenage girls a breeze. The 2 downstairs bedrooms offered private retreats for my husband and myself and my son and daughter-in-law. Snorkeling in the cove was some of the best I have experienced. Beautiful fish and turtles everywhere. Our host was very informative and helpful. In fact, we couldn't seem to get the coffee maker to work and he offered to ask someone on island to find one for us! If we return to Maui would stay there again.

Excellent Stay

After 5 days staying at the Grand Wailea we (wife and two teenage daughters) extended are trip to West Maui for a few days in this wonderful condo. I must say that I and the family had a better time at this location of Maui and really enjoyed the spacious and clean condo then I did at the luxury resort. I panicked a bit at first with no A/C but not needed at all with the breeze and ample windows to open. I can stay in the water all day and the cove this property sits on provided fantastic snorkeling anytime of the day. If you like to snorkel and see turtles and marine life this is your place. Everyone poolside was very friendly and got good advise from locals on where to eat and shop. Thanks to Graham and Carrie for provided a great place to stay and make some lifelong memories.

Beautiful, quiet spot right on the ocean

We loved staying at Honokeana Cove condo's. The development is very quiet and the grounds are beautifully maintained. Nice snorkeling is just steps from your condo, it's a rocky entry, but you will swan with turtles, Moorish Idol fish, trumpet fish, etc. The tiki torches are lit every night making for a dreamy evening view. You're close to Lahaina for shopping, but this is a low density area, not tourist filled. Kapalua Bay is close also, which has a great sandy beach and good snorkeling. Try the Gazebo restaurant for brunch, it's close by and worth the wait. The condo is dated, but it filled our needs nicely. The only thing I would have like to see is some bars of soap for a quick shower before grocery shopping for the essentials. Wine, cheese, crackers and a welcome note greeted us upon our arrival.

The cove is a great location. The condo is clean, secure and comfortable. The rental, check in and Checkout process are clear and easy. The sunset from the deck is limited. Walking from the condo to shops and restaurants is not easy due to no sidewalk. The vibe is older adult or family. Again the cove and access to the cove for snorkeling or paddle board is awesome.

We had a lovely time staying here! The views were incredible and having a pool right on property was perfect for our kids (ages 7 & 8). We enjoyed snorkeling in the private cove and were glad the property had many pool and beach amenities to use. We would definitely recommend staying here and will be back!!

So Wonderful, Just Tough To Sleep With Outside Noise

We loved the condo, the warm pool on the property, and swimming with sea turtles and incredible fish right in the bay. We loved hikes to sandy beaches. Our only concern was that we had no AC and so we needed to keep windows open and we could hear the neighbors, the loud birds, the garbage disposal truck picking up trash, and the cars driving by. This made it tough for some of us to sleep at night.

AMAZING visit!

Our family had THE BEST time staying here! The condo was clean, well-located, and had an amazing view overlooking the cove. We had the absolute honor of getting to see (from a distance) sea turtles who had come by to sleep on the shore. The hosts were very commutative, we had a very small hiccup getting into the home initially but they were extremely responsive and were able to help us out quickly! Highly recommend!
