Great Memorial Day Rates in Gorgeous West Maui Ocean front resort close to beach

WELCOME TO THE PAPAKEA RESORT IN WEST MAUI!!
West Maui 2 bed/2 bath ground floor condo
Ocean front resort close to beaches

Condo updated with stainless appliances and new flooring and new furnishings. For those who can work remotely, why not work from the beautiful Island of Maui?. Our unit has wireless internet to easily facilitate remote work situations.

The Papakea resort is located on the Kaanapali coast of Maui. It has approximately 13 acres of lush tropical gardens with foot bridges and Koi ponds, tennis courts, and a putting green. The Papakea resort has 2 pools and hot tubs. Our condo is in H building - ground floor, convenient to access.

We purchased the condo in 2014 and love the resort. We fell in love with Maui when we visited over 25 years ago, and still visit a few times each year. We named our condo "Tranquility" Maui condo as Maui is a beautiful and peaceful island. Our condo is in H building which is close to the pools and grills but far enough away not to hear the "pool noise" We are a ground floor unit which is VERY convenient! No climbing stairs or waiting for an elevator.....just walk out your front door or lanai!!

Since we want you to enjoy Maui and our condo as much as we do when we visit, our condo is updated with :

- Stainless appliances
- Walk in bathroom showers in main bath and master bath.
- Tri-zone (central) Air conditioning system . AC in Both Bedrooms and Kitchen/living area. (no window air conditioner in our unit!)
- Double pane bedroom windows installed in both bedrooms for great sleeping!! No old/outdated jalousie windows in the bedrooms like other units have!!
- Digital safe
- Pillow Top King Mattress in Owner Bedroom
- Two queen mattresses in the guest bedroom.
- Beach umbrella, Beach chairs, cooler to use at any of the beaches in Maui
- Golf putters and golf balls to use at the putting green at the Papakea

Our condo has 2 bedrooms. The owner bedroom has a king size bed and a flat screen television on the wall. There is a sitting area with a desk. Our second bedroom has two queen size beds and a flat screen television. Both Bedrooms are air conditioned. Some units have living room window AC only. Our condo has air in both bedrooms and living/kitchen area.

The Kitchen comes fully equipped for 4 people for those of you who like to cook. If grilling is your preference, there are barbeque grills poolside on the property that you can use. Very convenient to access from your ground floor unit without having to climb stairs!

Enjoy your coffee with our Keurig coffee machine on the ground floor lanai that overlooks one of the two Koi ponds on the property. For those of you who like to eat out, there are many great restaurants within a few miles of the property. Additionally there is an ABC convenience store right in front of the property.

We personally love visiting many of the beaches on Maui. Our unit has lounge chairs, a cooler, and an umbrella for you to use at any of the beautiful beaches on Maui.

Please consider making our home your home as you visit this beautiful island. We are happy to have you as our guests. We hope you will enjoy our condo as much as we do.

great location for a family trip

This is a lovely location, would definitely book again! Being on the ground level was great for us, especially with a toddler--easy access to the koi ponds, putting green, shuffleboard, and pools. Noise from the other units in our building was minimal. Pool area was sometimes busy but never so busy that we couldn't use the facilities. Lots of beach chairs in the closet. Kitchen is well stocked for cooking meals, and there is a grocery store in easy walking distance. Beds are comfortable, and I appreciate the layout of the unit--bedrooms are not right next to each other, which again, when traveling with kids, is nice! My only complaint is that the AC is connected to a timer system--you have to crank dials in the living room and in at least one bedroom for the system to operate. This means that overnight, the AC will click off. Not a huge deal--and I see the reasoning from an energy-saving perspective--but something to be aware of.

Family vacation

We really enjoyed our time at this condo. The location was excellent and centrally located. The grounds of the property were really nice. Overall the condo was great and had all the things you could hope for. Having laundry was a huge plus so really liked that. I will say that while the place was surface clean, it could really use a deep clean which is my only complaint. My husband and kids equally enjoyed the place and having the ground floor unit was really great with kids.

Paradise at Papakea

The condo was really beautiful and was just perfect for myself and 2 grown boys. We loved the convenience of being able to walk right out on the grounds from the patio. The condo was beautifully decorated and the kitchen was well stocked for all our cooking needs as we bbq'd out by the pool most every night. The pool was warm. We saw whales every day from the grounds. It was a short drive to Napili Bay beach which was a perfect beach to play at. If I had to give any feedback about the condo, it would have been nice to have a small supply of washing machine soap. Other than that, it was perfect stay for our weeks vacation. Thank you for a memorable vacation!

Wonderful Property

This property is pretty perfect...has everything you need for a great condo vacation - free towels, beach chairs, umbrellas, snorkel gear, comfy beds, terrific A/C, quiet location on resort with short walk to easy parking. We enjoyed everything about the property and resort and appreciated the fully stocked kitchen that included some basic spices, fabulous non-stick pans, and all the kitchen gadgets we needed to cook a few meals in. Highly recommend this wonderful condo. Great for a family with teenagers or 5 people since one room had 2 queen beds. Mahalo!

Peaceful retreat

We were looking for a 9 day escape. This location was perfect. Access to a variety of foods, (smaller supermarket just across the street) excursions were reasonably close, very well maintained resort. Not too big, not too small. Just right. The road to Hona starts about an hour away, so travel for that experience will take a full day to get it all. Highly recommend the local food trucks (about 10 options) and the pizza place just across the road. Owners were great. They responded when I asked questions and provided a lengthy list of ideas to do while we were here. Condo was well appointed and clean. Niece / nephew had a great time here. Could not ask for anything more

Extra surprises

Everything was in great order, the A/C being the main one in this summer weather. It was the little things that made a huge difference, they had two boogie boards, beach chairs, snorkel equipment. I didn't recall seeing a washer / dryer listed, but they had that too. The grounds had a putting green and the unit conveniently had a few putters available too. Little notes with instructions on how to use things shows care from the owners. A store, some restaurants and a great food truck lot with a dozen trucks within a few hundred yards was nice. The only wish we had was if it was on Napili Bay or Kapalua Bay, but then the price would be a lot more too.

Great place on a great resort

Everything was great with our stay, from the location (close walk to stores, food and grocery), the resort property (with nice koi ponds, pools and BBQs) that was quiet and chill, the condo was clean and had nice additions like on-site laundry and lots of beach accessories for us to use. The beach in front of the resort was decent, but we found it better to drive 10 minutes north to a great public beach that had crystal-clear water, white beaches and turtles swimming in the water. It was an amazing trip and we want to go back and stay here again in the near future!

The perfect condo!

This unit is absolutely wonderful. There were several to choose from when I was looking, and I randomly chose this one. So happy I did. It was very close to the front desk, patio walks right out to the ponds/pool/mini golf area. The unit was spotless and had everything we needed, including beach chairs and towels. The water pressure in the shower was awesome. I didn't have to contact the owner at all. Everything I needed was provided ahead of time or was in the unit when we arrived. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat!

About the host

Hosted by Jim or Jean

Host profile image
We live on the East Coast and try to visit Maui as often as we can. We first visited Maui over 25 years ago and fell in love with it and wanted to purchase a property to call our own on this beautiful island. There are so many activities. We enjoy visiting the beautiful beaches and watching the gorgeous sunsets. The outdoor activities are fantastic including zip lining ( picture is of us at Piholo ranch zip line), surfing, snorkeling, and scenic drives. There is something for everyone to do.

Why they chose this property

We chose the Papakea because it is an ocean front property in the Kaanapali area, and we consider it one of the most beautiful places in the world. Because the Papakea is on almost 13 acres, there is never a feeling of being crowded. It has many amenities, including shuffleboard, two pools, two hot tubs, tennis courts and a putting green. It's a quiet relaxing place to unwind.

What makes this property unique

Since it's an ocean front property we enjoy our evening walks to the ocean to watch the beautiful sunsets. Nothing beats a Maui Sunset !!
