Hale Kai is an absolute gem—peaceful, beautiful, and just steps from the ocean. If you're looking for a place that feels like home while offering front-row seats to Maui’s natural beauty, this is it. The small, close-knit community vibe made my stay feel warm and personal. Everyone I encountered was friendly and respectful, and it’s clear that the people who stay here value the quiet magic of the place. This was my second stay, can't wait for another stay.

I’ve been staying at Hale Kai each year for about 10 years or more. Obviously I consider Hale Kai my home away from home. The condos have all you need, the pool is right there and a small private sandy beach (sometimes a turtle will come there to rest). Plus at night there is the fun conch hailing of the sunset.

First, this unit is managed by Hale Kai and that has definite advantages. Other units are VRBO and Aribnb and they don't have the IMMEDIATE response time for issues that hale Kai management provides. The bed was great, bathroom clean, everything functioned throughout the condo. Location was perfect for us-no stairs to get to the pool, beach or BBQ. Plenty of parking. We will return to this unit.

Response from VrboOwner on 23 Mar 2024
'Aloha Bonny. Again so sorry! We did our very best to accommodate under the circumstances. Please try us again!
Negative at first, then once inside and seeing the view from back patio... loved it!
I did a bad job of checking details while booking and being hot natured, was not wild when I discovered there was no A/C (totally my ignorance). However, once chatting with another guest about that, we managed things with the shades and windows and it worked out well. We even moved our bedroom mattress from the bedroom to the living room floor and slept there, able to hear the ocean while we slept which was AWESOME. I was able to cool down and enjoy the ocean sounds. We had some plumbing issues but again managed it and enjoyed our stay. Management will address those issues. All in all, really enjoyed our stay as we spent more time exployring Maui and not too much time in the room, but even the pool and small beach was enjoyable the short time we were at the VRBO.

The pictures serve the property perfectly. We loved staying in Honokowai area of Maui, we'd never been there before. Only one exit north of Ka'anapali.
The view from the living room was priceless. The place was clean with all needed amenities. Lack of AC in January is not an issue, the breeze kept us comfortable.
The pool was right off our patio. The private beach was very swimmable (unlike a lot of Kaanapali because this beach had a rock break).. Never overcrowded, only these two condo units use this beach. Was great. Even on days it disappeared due to higher tide. Still very usable.
Great farmer market store right across the street, ABC store within walking distance. Local park/beach right next door to condo if you want to use the public beach instead of the private one.
Our only lower star is due to the fact we were never give the code for the door. And check in on Saturday at 3pm are after office hours. We got lucky an owner in the complex saw us mulling around and called the office manager on her personal line to get us the code to get in. I had emailed 2 days before check in to get code, no response.
Will definitely return to this complex.
This property was perfect. It was clean and well stocked. The location could not have been better as it was central to everything we wanted to do. Even just staying on the property to enjoy the pool and ocean was fun. I would definitely stay here again.

Reviewer Comments:
There wasn’t an Airconditioner and we weren’t able to sleep because it was so hot nor come in from the beach to cool off. Don’t rent this one if you are use to air conditioning. There was one fan in the unit and we moved it around with us. We left after 3 days of an 8 night vacation. They wouldn’t work with us on any form of a refund. It was built in the early 60tys and hasn’t changed much since then.

This is true we do not have AC nor to we advertise that we do. We have ceiling fan in each room living room and bedrm. We have broke at least a dozen records for the heat. If I could control Mother Nature I would have made it cooler I promise you that.
We are old Hawaii no high rise just nice condos on the beach. Most of the time the ocean breezes and ceiling fans work. Sit out on your own lanai and listen to surf not an AC or take a dip in the ocean front pool maybe a swim in the ocean that is what we have to offer.
