Why settle for ocean view when you can have OCEANFRONT! You could throw a coconut to the water from our deck. THE SUNSET PICTURE WAS TAKEN FROM OUR LANAI. Papakea L-305 is as close as you can get to the ocean and offers easy access to world famous Kaanapali Beach for long walks in the sand. Watch the world go by from the lanai with the privacy of being on the 3rd floor.
Watch the whales (Nov - April) from your deck while you drink your morning coffee or with evening cocktails as you watch the sunset.
Let the waves lull you to sleep. The master suite and living room have breathtaking views looking across the channel to the islands of Lanai and Molokai. We are one of the few units with both ocean front views in the living area and master bedroom. Most of the units have all the bedrooms to the back of the condo.
New air-conditioning unit in both bedrooms and the living area.
Fully remodeled. Sliding glass doors that open from the center bringing more of the view in.
New tiles floors throughout.
Newly remodeled kitchen with granite counter tops, natural cherry cabinets, stainless steel appliances. Fully appointed making cooking and eating in a breeze.
Newly remodeled bathrooms. Master bath is an en-suite with a new walk in shower.
Second bathroom also has a newly remodeled walk in shower.
The Papakea Oceanfront Resort is a tropical oasis of 13 acres of manicured grounds. It has the largest amount of land of any condominium resort on Maui's Kaanapali beach, the only resort with two oceanfront pools, two spas, two 12 hole putting greens. Grounds also include three lighted tennis courts, two shuffleboards, two beach cabanas, tranquil koi ponds, lush gardens and 12 outdoor barbecues.
This is one of the best locations on Maui! From your lanai, enjoy ever-changing ocean views of beautiful sunsets, rainbows, dolphins, turtles, seals, whales(Nov.-April), surfers and boats. You will be footsteps away from great swimming, snorkeling, sunbathing and relaxation.
This 3rd floor unit, in the desired 'L 'building, is an oceanfront unit with central air and ceiling fans throughout. Kitchen is fully equipped. The bathrooms are complete with new cabinets, granite counter tops and walk in showers. Of the waterfront buildings, the 'L' building has the closest parking to the building and an elevator. It is also the closest to the year round beach next door as the beach in front of us comes and goes with the tides.
This 2 bedroom IS NOT A LOFT! This condo has two very private bedrooms and A/C throughout or fans cool the condo easier than a two story loft area.
The condo sleeps four to six with a California king bed in the master bedroom. Fall asleep to the sound of the waves. All rooms are on the same level. If you tire of the view, there are two flat screen TV's in the living room and master bedroom.
Two twin beds in the second bedroom can be turned into a king bed upon request.
The living room sofa is a queen size sleeper sofa.
There is a washer/dryer in unit.
This unit is equipped with golf putters, tennis rackets, various snorkel equipment, beach toys, collapsible cooler and beach chairs.

By far our best experience at Papakea! This property, specifically this unit was absolutely perfect. Property was clean and just as advertised. The views were perfect and we could not have asked for a better place to stay!

We loved sitting on the lanai and watching the whales. We usually stay at a more secluded area of the island so we really enjoyed being able to walk to some cafes and coffee shops. The food truck park was a big hit for our group too. One note - my personal experience is that rentals on VRBO often don't come with as many amenities. This one had a large number of bathrooom towels which was an unexpected bonus - but you'll need paper towels and trash bags, dishwasher detergent, etc. (There will be enough for your first day or two)This isn't uncommon in other Maui rentals - but it's nice to know ahead of time. Plus, don't expect any type of shampoo/bodywash.

We loved our stay in Maui and would definitely stay in this condo again! It was amazing! The view was incredible, the two bedrooms were great, and it was stocked with everything we needed for a great week!

If you’re going to spend your hard earned money, it’s only fair that you get an honest review. We had seen 100+ reviews here and they were all amazing reviews, so we thought we were booking a great stay. Please continue to read for a real and honest review.
1- Cockroaches. There were different bugs just about every night. This alone is a deal breaker and should be noted in the reviews. We made sure we took videos of the bugs so we had proof.
2- We have small children and the first night our key code didn’t work so we had to book another hotel. We had messaged the host and she eventually responded but we had booked a hotel prior to the response for the night. After her telling me I was wrong about the code, we showed up the next day and the door code STILL didn’t work. The host had us call a number for one of the other managers to get his door code, which worked immediately. Host didn’t want to own up about the code not working.
3- There was NO beach!! If you have kids or family that likes the beach, this will be a terrible location. There’s literally a sea wall that the waves slam into 24/7. The beach across the waterway (in front of other hotel) was about a 10’ beach. The pictures are deceiving (host has a picture of a couple getting married on the beach). You can either go to the pool or sit on the patio at this hotel. With kids in our family, the beach is a necessity for fun and this host made it seem like there is actually a beach here.
Overall a terrible stay.

This condo was everything I hoped it would be. The views amazing looking out over the ocean, every night we enjoyed the gorgeous sunsets from the lanai and during the day the whales were happily playing! And the sounds of the ocean were the only music we needed! We appreciated the beach chairs, beach towels and other beach toys. Papakea Resort is walking distance to shopping, the beach walk, beaches and plenty of restaurants. A quick drive to Whaler’s for more shopping and good restaurants. The grounds are well maintained, and there are barbecues available.
We look forward to our next trip to Maui and stay in this wonderful condo.

We loved our stay in Maui. Everything we needed to have fun on the beach, at the tennis courts and on the putting green were all provided. Rachel was wonderful to work with and very responsive when things arose that needed attention. The view was stunning. We cannot not wait to go back.

Clean condo with all you need for a lovely stay in Maui. We’ve stayed at the papakea for over 20 years now… the location and views are unbeatable.
We were able to push the two twin beds together for our kiddos to all sleep in a “king” bed. They had sand toys, boogie boards, snorkel gear, tennis rackets etc to enjoy.
Favorite part was coffee on the lanai with the gorgeous view every morning. Definitely our favorite building to stay in with the access to the water view and grassy area below, as well as easy access to the pool. If our kiddos needed to
Run up and grab something, we could see them the whole time.
Easy communication with the owner. Checkin and our was easy breezy.

We had an amazing stay in this ocean-facing unit! We have stayed at the Papakea property twice before, but never in a unit like this that faces directly out to the ocean. The views morning, noon & night take your breath away. The unit was very clean & well-appointed. Our family of four had plenty of room for the week we were there. The A/C units kept things nice & cool. Walking distance to restaurants & grocery store. We would absolutely stay here again & again. Highly recommend!
