***HONUA KAI VOTED ONE OF THE TOP 10 RESORTS IN HAWAII: 2018 CONDE NAST READERS' CHOICE AWARDS***

From the moment you walk through the door of Konea 551 you will realize that you are entering one of Kaanapali Beach’s crown jewels. This masterpiece boasts a stunning 5th floor location on the interior oceanfront corner above the palm canopy in the closest wing to the ocean in Honua Kai’s desirable Konea Tower. As you take in the views of the azure blue Pacific, Ka'anapali's iconic Black Rock, and Maui’s neighbor islands of Lanai and Molokai from your private oasis of comfort and luxury, you will know that you have found paradise. This oceanfront “Ali’i” (Hawaiian word for royalty) residence affords sweeping oceanfront views, abundant living space, opulent finishings, and a built-in Viking BBQ grill on the expansive 600 square foot wrap-around balcony.

Konea 551's interior comfort blends the resplendent charm of old Hawaii with the sophistication of modern master craftsmanship and design. This residence accommodates up to six guests in three sumptuous king-sized beds. For your convenience, one of the king beds can be split into two XL twin beds. The spacious open floor plan provides the perfect tropical retreat for families and friends to gather and reconnect.

Your party will have plenty of room to spread out in the 2280 square foot of interior living space. Konea 551 is within a stone’s throw of the sand and but a short stroll from Honua Kai’s many pools and amenities. Bathe in the warm Maui sun from the privacy of your own balcony because the spacious outdoor living area offers plenty of unobstructed tropical sunshine.

Each bedroom has an accompanying luxury bath for each party's privacy. The bathrooms are lavishly adorned with granite counters and glass and marble walk-in showers. Each master bath offers a separate soaking tub and the first master bath offers something only found in the most elite Honua Kai residences - an elegant free standing vessel-style soaking tub.

We encourage you to express your culinary creativity in the gourmet chef’s kitchen. The space is fully equipped with stainless steel Viking appliances including dual ovens, and a built-in wine fridge. There is plenty of space on the ample granite countertops and we have provided all the cookware & utensils for you to prepare the perfect meal or refreshment…just bring the ingredients. Enjoy your meals on the spacious ocean view balcony or dine indoors in the climate controlled air conditioning. In addition, our commercial grade Vitamix blender lends itself well to preparing creative libations or smoothies with fresh local produce.

Honua Kai occupies 38 pristine beachfront acres on the shores of Kaanapali’s North Beach so you’ll literally be just steps away from the tranquility of Maui’s shoreline. Stroll out to the beach to touch your toes in the soft sand or take a refreshing dip in the Pacific. An “Ohana Play Package” including Tommy Bahama beach chairs, BBQ equipment, and a portable cooler is provided complimentary.

Take pleasure in spending your days at the resort’s three acre aquatic playground. With four separate swimming pools, a waterslide, waterfalls, fountains, and 5 hot tubs there will be no shortage of options for you and your loved ones to enjoy.

When it is time for a bite to eat, Honua Kai is home to the popular Duke’s Beach House Restaurant which serves breakfast, lunch, dinner, and cocktails. Duke’s specializes in serving up Hawaiian inspired cuisine using locally sourced ingredients and freshly caught seafood. Should you wish to enjoy a refreshment by the water, poolside service is available. For coffee, sandwiches, and sundries, the Whaler’s General Store is conveniently located in the Konea Tower lobby.

Should you feel like pampering yourself with a refreshing massage or treatment, head downstairs to the acclaimed Ho’ola Health Spa. This sanctuary within the resort weaves Hawaiian inspired themes and ingredients into its wide array of signature treatments. Revitalize your senses with a Hawaiian Lomi Lomi Massage, Pohaku Stone Treatment, or Coffee Fruit Facial, or experience the health benefits of the spa’s unique Himalayan Salt Room.

If you wish to avoid excessive baggage fees from the airlines, consider packing lighter and utilizing the high efficiency Bosch washer and dryer in the suite.

Free high speed Wi-Fi is available and is included with your stay. The newly upgraded Wi-Fi in this suite now clocks in at up to 300Mbps which is up to 10X faster than most of the other suites at Honua Kai. Complimentary booster seats, high chairs, and futons are also available upon request (based on availability).

For added convenience, our exclusive Maui Resort Rentals courtesy shuttle offers complimentary transportation between Honua Kai and a number of West Maui locations.

If during your stay you require assistance or advice about the surrounding area or the suite, rest assured that you’ll be swiftly taken care of with aloha by one of our friendly & knowledgeable liaisons - hand-picked from West Maui’s leading luxury hotels. Help will never be far away because our offices are ideally located directly across the street.

There are few, if any, experiences that rival what Konea 551 has to offer...with the exception being neighboring Konea 550, which is also managed by Maui Resort Rentals. These amazing residences offer the rare opportunity to have 6 adjacent oceanfront bedrooms for those with discerning taste. Look no further as it simply does not get any better.

With warmth & aloha we invite you to 'InJoy' Konea 551 - an undisputed gem at one of Maui’s most celebrated luxury resorts.

Had a wonderful time in this unit. Sitting outside viewing the ocean was wonderful and peaceful. The unit had everything needed especially beach chair's and cooler. I would rent this beautiful unit again as it's awesome for family time. However, I would not use the coffee that was left for us on the counter. Jan S.

Super beautiful condo, the wrap around porch was ahhhhmazing! We did see a lot of whales! Dukes was wonderful, pool was great as well! You have to go down at 5am to a chair around the pool tho. The AC in the bedrooms was outstanding!!! But…Condo is lacking amenities for teens/kids. No beach gear besides chairs and a large cooler. The dryer needs to be replaced. It took over 2hrs to dry a towel, 2 pairs of socks, cargo shorts and a tshirt, 5 things-2hrs. Also had serious problem with no hot water after 8-10m. Emailed rental company and a maintenance team came and left, then another team came and left, then a maintenance mgr came and said he needed to replace a pipe and he’d recommend an outside company to come back the next day and remove the water tank. We never heard from anyone again. So I called 2 days later and she said our unit had been noted. Being noted does not help me to share a bathroom with 5 others. (Keep in mind this is a 3bed/3bath) That was awful! One bathroom had hot water if no one else did dishes or laundry! Nothing was ever resolved about the hot water issue or the dryer. No mention of any type of compensation at all. Beautiful condo, but not sure I’ll rent with Maui resort rentals again.

Breathtaking views, amazing appointments in the unit. I only called once for a minor issue with the dishwasher and they came out and addressed it quickly. Probably needs a new one soon. I also had expressed concern there was no foil or wrap for food storage and they brought me a roll of each. Wonderful customer service! I will definitely return, for a special occasion this was just perfect for my family. Plenty of room. We were 6 adults and one baby. Love love love it!

My husband and I stayed here for a week celebrating our anniversary. The property was beyond what we had expected. I have never stayed at a more beautiful place. We can’t wait to return. The condo boasts the most expansive and gorgeous views from nearly every single room. When we return to Maui we will definitely be staying here again and again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in 551 and will definitely be looking for it again! We had our extended family meet us in Maui and this was definitely the best gathering room. We watched whales in the morning from the deck, grilled dinner there, and played cards into the evening with the crashing waves outside below. It was the perfect Maui vacation spot for a group of six or more.

Great property and stay! We didn't want to leave! The views are worth the extra $.
