This is a clean & comfortable one bedroom unit with a full ocean view at Paki Maui, a property architecturally designed to take full advantage of Maui's weather and the proximity to the ocean! The view from the lanai spans the Auau channel and a view of the islands of Molokai &Lanai. You will see turtles lunching off the reef any time of the year, and if you stay between mid-November to mid-April you will be treated to the show the humpback whales put on while mating & teaching their calves to swim!
If the goal is to relax and enjoy the view, you won't have to go more than a few short steps!! This is a SPECTACULAR view! You will not be disappointed! This is an elevated lanai facing the ocean.
Paki Maui is located in the heart of the Honokowai neighborhood. There are grocery, take out, and eat in restaurants within close walking distance. To the north and the south are lovely sandy beaches, but the prize is the set of 3 reefs that protect the ocean swimmer from the heavy surf, and make for great snorkeling and swimming!
Our efficiency kitchen is perfectly equipped for eating snacks in, or creating full meals from the fresh local produce at The Farmers Market right across the street!
This home is equipped with several amenities to provide you with a wonderful vacation from start to finish!
*At the pool is a shared BBQ. This is located just off the lawn perched over the sea-wall. Views Everywhere!
*We have a smart TV in the living area
*This unit captures the fresh ocean breezes like no other! You will love falling asleep to the sound of the ocean waves! We keep portable fans in addition to the ceiling fans for your comfort as well. Please note, this resort does not allow AC.
*We provide free wifi, 70+ mbps download, and off street parking.
*The bedroom has a comfortable queen size bed, and there is a comfortable queen size pullout couch in the living room as well.
*Please note that while we keep beach chairs, towels and coolers, we recommend renting snorkel gear from one of several vendors in the neighborhood for the sake of both fit and sanitation.
*On the grounds of Paki Maui you will find a sundeck as well as lounge chairs across the oceanfront lawn of the property for sunbathing. There is also a BBQ located at the pool for guest and residents use.
Our space is yours!
I have lived on Maui for 28+ years, and did live in this neighborhood for 15 years. I am very happy to help answer any questions you have about the space, the neighborhood, or the island. I'm just a phone call, text or email away.
Honokawai is a unique Maui neighborhood. It's the kind of community where people know each other and say "Aloha" walking down the street. There are grocers, eateries of all types and local shops. Down the road is our favorite beach walk - walking south (go right) on Lwr Honoapi'ilani Rd you will see a blue "Ocean Access" sign pointing right. This will take you to Honua Kai Beach, one of the top rated beaches in the world from Travel and Leisure Magazine.
Maui does have a public bus system, and works great for getting around West Maui. The bus stop is located just south on the road in front of the ABC store. If you want to wander further afield you will want to consider renting a car. I am happy to make recommendations for you.
Lyft and Uber are available for all around the island, but are not permitted pick ups at the airport.
*The volcanic reef fronting the shoreline runs parallel to the shore. There are 2 lava reef ridges that serve to protect the swimmer/snorkeler during low to mid tide. The max depth between the 1st and second reef is about 9 ft, and in the afternoon fairly warm and very comfortable. We see turtles, spinner dolphins and eagle rays, as well as countless other marine animals along this shoreline!
*Please note - Paki Maui is AC free. AC is not offered or allowed at this location. Paki Maui was built to take advantage of the breezes and channel the air through the condo spaces. There is an air circulation system that draws air through the buildings, thus allowing the guest to enjoy the ocean sounds and breezes. This unit comes with ceiling fans and extra floor fans.
For check ins on Christmas and Thanksgiving day our cleaning service charges an additional holiday cleaning fee of $75.00. We will contact you regarding this additional fee after you make your reservation.
*We take your safety and well-being seriously. We have a comprehensive cleaning and sanitizing program for this property. Our cleaning service and on-site staff are spending as much time as necessary to make sure that all areas of your rental are thoroughly cleaned before you check in.
We ask you to plan ahead as we may not be able to allow early check ins and late check outs as often as we would like.

This condo has a nice lanai for sunsets but it needs a little TLC as the kitchen is small with only one drawer, and no cupboards for food. There was additional family staying in another larger two bedroom condo in the same building and the unit was newly upgraded, yet it cost about the same per night.

We found this to be the perfect spot to spend a few days - the view from the lanai is awesome- great whale watching. The property is conveniently located as well - great food options are just across the street. The unit is a bit dated but very clean.

We loved staying here! The views and sound of the ocean made our experience the absolute best! The kids had a great time at the pool every day. The location of Paki Maui could not be better with groceries, coffee shop, etc. right across the road. We could not have asked for a better place to stay in Hawaii!

We loved our stay here - along the ocean with a beautiful breeze, close to shops and restaurants, sunrises & sunsets. The place had everything you need included beach chairs, snorkels etc

This was perfect for what we needed. While it's small for 3, we weren't in Maui to hang out in our room. The lanai was amazing and has ruined me for future trips, because I don't want to stay anywhere I can't hear the waves at night. The view from the lanai of Molokai, the bright stars at night, and seeing whales in the channel made for an unforgettable experience. If you're sick of paying top dollar for eating out on Maui, the Okazuya deli across the street has tons of very reasonable options, as do the nearby food trucks. If we go back to Maui, we would hope to stay here again.

Couldn't have asked for a nicer spot to relax and recharge. Everything we needed on site or in walking distance. We saw a whale spout right from the kitchen!

Great week of whale watching, swimming in the ocean, fresh papaya from the market, and lounging beside the beach. Perfect getaway. We would add that an improvement could be made with newer carpet, or replacing it with tile. Also, the bathtub is very slippery and could use a rubber mat. Other than that, our stay was wonderful…

We loved our stay at Paku Maui! We had beautiful views of Molokai and Lanai islands. We saw sea turtles and whales from the balcony and pretty great snorkeling right of the property. Plenty of lounge chairs on the property and the unit had all the beach accessories you need.
There were plenty of fans to keep things cool and when able we opened the front door to let a cross breeze come through.
The kitchen was well equipped though I would make a suggestion to add some baking pans. The only negative was the sliding bathroom door had gaps so it didn’t allow for much privacy in the bathroom.
The location was perfect, close to Maui brewing company, hiking trails, shopping and food trucks.
Would definitely recommend staying here!

Amazing view, loved looking out to the ocean every day. Quiet complex and nice pool and spa. Inside of the unit was as advertised, could use some updating to the kitchen and bathroom but the beds were comfy and it served us well for our vacation.
