What was great:
Incredible views (best in my life), very comfortable and clean beds, great location, shuttle is available to ride around Kapalua (which was very convenient with small kids). The unit itself is very spacious. There were 6 of us and it felt very comfortable.
What needs to be improved:
The property itself is outdated. I understand renovation can cost a lot, but having at least couple upgraded pans/coffee maker/electric tea pot would make a huge difference.
We were not able to enjoy the balcony/lanai in the master bedroom. There was a wet, dirty carpet with a terrible smell that needs to be removed. It stays under rain and never gets dry.
Dirty/old carpets in the property.
No beach toys/games/boogie boards found for small kids which are usually available

The unit was as expected though for some reason the place was littered with mobile AC units. Perhaps the central AC unit was out but we just turned them all off. Have to say it was kinda funky having all those machines around with cords and the vent ducts laying all around.
November 2022
When I booked in February, we noticed from prior reviews that the AC wasn't working. I emailed the host agency and they assured me that it was repaired so I booked for November. The repairs turned out to be portable AC units which were so loud we couldn't sleep with them on. That's a problem. Also, the portable units do not get below 72 degrees. I notified the host agency on the first day and they couldn't do anything because they said that the part to repair the AC hasn't come in. That's almost 9 months! One other minor issue that I had to report, the speakers on the TV in the living room were blown making it tough to understand words. This unit has one of the best views at the Villas, it's a shame that the owner doesn't maintain the property to the high standard it deserves.

We came to celebrate a niece’ bday. The villa is in a great location, close to everything. We barely left Kapalua for dinner. There’s so many places to eat in and nearby Napoli. Our villa is very nice. Probably needs a bit of an upgrade, especially the the furnitures. But not enough to keep us from coming back.

The views from this condo were absolutely amazing ! The entire complex was a beautiful property. We walked to the little Cafe/Market close to the Ritz every morning for coffee. Steps right outside the condo lead to the beach and a hiking trail. The interior had plenty of space for our family that included 2 adults and 4 teens 15/15/17/17. Two master suite bathrooms that were huge and a smaller bathroom with a shower. Kitchen was completely stocked and plenty of linens as well. Small air conditioning issue when we arrived - that we called on and they had someone there within 10 minutes - Great Service !! One of the pools on the property is right outside your front steps and hardly anyone was ever there.
Totally recommend this property !!!

The property is perfect for a family vacation. Pool and beach access are only 1-2 minutes Each. The views overlooking the bay and ocean great and much better than what was anticipated.

Our family of 6 had such a wonderful time staying here. There is a calm beach (Kapalua bay beach), a wavy beach/windy beach (Oneola beach), and even some cliff jumping (Namlu Bay) all within walking distance!! The only thing we would have done different is stock up and just eat all our meals at the Condo. Most of the restaurants close by were weeks long waiting lists, or outside the shuttle area. All in all this was a fantastic place to stay for some amazing memories.

We have stayed in several units in Kapalua, and this has hands down the best view. It is positioned perfectly in the front row right on the ocean, and the sunsets and whale sightings are spectacular. Yes, the interior could use a little updating, but it was clean, and who cares when you've got that view? It never gets old! We felt very lucky to be there, and we will be back.

This condo boasts close to 360* views of beautiful Kapalua Bay. The space was perfect for our group--two coulples with one child each. The bedrooms both have spacious and luxurious master baths and balconies attached for privacy. Kitchen was stocked with what we needed to prepare meals and there were beach chairs and towels ready for use. Vacation of a lifetime!

The unit is in a great location. Lots of restaurants close by and the best golf in Hawaii is discounted for staying at these villas. I saw plenty of whales from my balcony. The unit is close to the beach and steps to a pool. Although the bathrooms are slightly outdated everything else about the unit is great. The location is the best in the complex and I would rent this same unit again.

The location of this unit was exceptional. The views of Molokai were breathtaking. Whales and dolphins were seen daily. The furnishings were a little tired and could have used some updating. The beds were a bit uncomfortable. Loved the place and with a few updates the unit goes from a 4 star to a 5 star.

We love Kapalua and this villa is perfect for an ocean front view. It is close to hike the trails along the beach, right next to a pool, and a short hike to the beach. It has 2 masters with large master baths, though a tad outdated. One of the masters has a noisy portable air conditioned unit which was annoying as it boomed off and on periodically through the night. The other master with 2 queens is much nicer and more updated. There is a 3rd bathroom with a shower that is nice. The kitchen is nice and has lots of supplies. The unit had 4 beach chairs and a boogie board which was wonderful! Mostly, we loved that this unit is upstairs so it makes it easier to load and unload your car. There are gorgeous views! The pic with the chaise is from a small bedroom balcony. The larger balcony across the front of the villa is very shallow so it can only accommodate chairs. Basically, the unit’s local is great and the furnishings are nice. We will be back again!

The ocean front views of this villa compensate for the outdated decour and master bath. There is a long but shallow balcony all along the front. There are 2 more balconies off the 2 bedrooms where the chaises are. It was a delight that beach chairs and beach towels were included. Thanks 23b3!

Our fifth stay at the Kapalua Bay Villas, and we nailed the location. Views, close, but not too close to the pool, and a short walk to the beautiful Oneola Bay beach. Unfortunately owners have let this become a run down sad example of a ‘purely for investment’ property. Too many sub-par examples to list.....but we made the stay more about surfing, Leoda’s, and swimming...lots of fun to be had.

This was a perfect location for for my nephews wedding at Merrimans, The unit was the perfect size for my 2 adult sons, husband and self. Master BR & bathroom were large with walkout deck & lounge chairs, beautiful view of the bay, boys BR nice size, 2 double beds with deck & bay view w 2 chairs. Kitchen & bathrooms are older but clean & adequate, Nice furniture throughout with stunning views of the Bay & Kapalua Trail, Front deck off living room w chairs for morning coffee at sunrise & breathtaking sunsets sipping mai tais. Pool next door very convenient for quick swim or lounging has a grill & eating area. The kitchen amenities have the basics you need drip coffee maker, dishwasher, microwave but the 2 rear burners on the stove not working. We ate out most so not a huge deal but need repair. They did supply 4 comfy beach chairs, beach towels & several hair dryers & ample bath towels. We loved the location a short walk to Kapalua Bay for snorkeling, hiking on trail, & Oneloa Bay. Close drive to Lahaina for the luaus, dinner, shopping. Would definitely stay here again- breathtaking views & location.

This was our 3rd visit to Kapalua Bay Villas. We love it here and the view is spectacular. We found the villa very clean and comfortable and everything we needed. The kitchen is stocked with pots, pans and a rice cooker. Ample bowls, glasses and stemware for any need. There was salt, pepper and random spices in the cupboard. You will need to purchase everything else, as usual.There was apparently someone who had trouble with the toaster prior to our visit and would like to be sure to mention that a new toaster and coffee maker (both still in the box) were brought to us when we arrived. Management is extremely quick to respond (usually same day)if you let them know WHILE YOU ARE THERE of any difficulties. (We had NO problems at all.) We watched whales thru a telescope which was on site! The balconies provide sun or shade, whichever you prefer. This is the first time we have used the pool since we prefer the beach, and it was lovely, clean and refreshing! Plenty of towels in the villa and lots of lounge chairs for sunning. I would recommend this as one of our favorite locations. Be sure to try"The Fish Market Maui" in Honokowai for fresh fish plate lunch. It's soooo delicious! We will return!

Having stayed in many of the Kapalua Villas over the last 17 years, this unit was a bit sad. The decoration was sparse and the kitchen was lacking. The toaster, coffee maker and apppliances did not work properly. The basics of kitchen stock were not there. The view is great. This one goes on our no list for future stays.
