Fabulous oceanfront studio with great lanai, but the bed while comfortable is a very small queen and the bathroom sink did not drain well. Ocean was rough and exciting to watch and hear up close.

This unit is right on a rock/sand beach but we never ventured into the water because it looks dangerous. The crashing of the waves at night were loud and we were able to keep the sliding glass doors open which was great for sleeping. There is no TV , two small dorm room size fridges and the unit is quite small at 400+ square feet. The lanai seemingly doubles the living space and was a very nice place to hang out. The price seems high but there aren't many options in Hana. The staff was very accomodating and made us feel welcome. Don't come in with high expectations or you might be disappointed.

We had a great time at the Hana Kai. It’s a perfect spot to do the Road to Hana at a more relaxed pace. The view from the room was delightful and the kitchen had everything we needed. We will definitely stay at the Hana Kai again.

My husband and I had a wonderful 2 night stay in Hana to break up the RTH drive & stops. This condo was the perfect halfway base. The sunrise is gorgeous here, a great way to start the day enjoying coffee on the lanai. Access & parking & check in is a breeze, especially if checking in after the office is closed, they’ll leave the keys map & info in a lockbox for you. For a late dinner after the food trucks close, we recommend the Preserve Kitchen & Bar at nearby hotel open til 9 & delicious. The condo is clean, organized, stocked with essentials, the bed is comfortable & the space is just enough for a couple day pit stop. Just a half hour from the Pipiwai Trail & minutes from Hana Farms & Wainapanapa. Would recommend!

My wife and I stayed here for 2 nights and it was an amazing place to stay while doing the road to Hana and enjoying a slower pace of living. The living space is beautifully decorated and the view of the beach and bay was spectacular. We loved the lanai and were out there almost all the time. The sunsets and sunrises here were truly special, especially if you hike up to Fagan's Cross at sunrise. Staying here allowed us to truly experience the road to Hana at our own pace, giving us more time to explore this beautiful part of Maui and relax at the same time. The staff was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. Truly an unforgettable experience!

Sitting on the covered deck, watching the waves crash down on the unique black rock beach, watching sea turtles from the lava rock outcrop to the right as you look off the porch, being lulled to sleep by the sound of the surf hitting and peacefully dragging the black rocks on the beach. A truly unique spot! Bring conditioner, shampoo, and body wash. There are games to play, two mini refrigerators, all the kitchen gadgets you need including cork screw and wine glasses

This was the calmest part of our 2 week trip. We loved being able to just look out from the lanai to the black sand beach. It was nice to be able to stay on the road to Hana and really see the area. It was great having a little kitchen to make our own meals. Highly recommend staying here.
