Love the place … accessible to pretty much what we needed like restaurants, beaches, grocery store etc. Enjoyed the daily morning walks. The location was perfect … love being in the lanai, saw turtles and wales. Mesmerized by the sunset view as well. Overall, it was a 10/10. Will for sure come back to this property !!!

Great frontline location in a low rise resort. Bed comfortable and shower was very good. The property is a little dated and although well equipped kitchen wise it would have been nice to have at least a couple of matching red wine glasses. All in all a very nice stay.

My husband and I truly enjoyed our stay in Papakea F205. Although we did not cook, the unit was thoroughly stocked with essentials needed to do so. It also had the necessities for a beach day as well, which we really appreciated.
Although there is no beach at the property, the ocean views from the unit and the sunset were amazing every night.
We rented a car and ventured to many beaches and restaurants every day. I would recommend doing so.
Would definitely rent again.

I come to Hawaii on business quarterly and when on Maui I stay only at Papakea. Great facility and bang for your buck.

This place was great to stay in. Condo was clean and well appointed. The grounds were nicely kept. It was wonderful seeing and hearing the surf all day and night. Now it's too quiet here at home!

The property was very nice. The sound of the surf against the sea wall right outside was incredible. Only downside of the property is no actual beach.

We enjoyed the beautiful sunsets and views of the water and other islands at this property.it was fun watching sailboats and fishing boats go by. The grill was convenient and clean. The bed was comfortable. We especially liked working with Julie. She was helpful and made our stay enjoyable.

We arrived at Papakea and the check in process was very easy. Upon arriving to the condo, within 15 minutes we realized that the toilet was clogged and not flushing properly. I reached out to Julie, and within another 15 minutes, a plunger showed up at our front door. Communication with Julie was easy ( and obviously prompt!) We loved staying at this condo. The kitchen was fully equipped, allowing us to make breakfast (x3), lunch (x3) and dinner (x2). By far, our favorite part of this condo was the porch and the view! We thoroughly enjoyed opening the sliding doors to the porch and hearing the waves crashing outside throughout the day. We ate all of our meals out on the porch. Each evening, we would have dinner on the porch, perfectly aligning with the sunset. We spent a full 9 days on various parts of the island. We spent 4 nights at Papakea. Both my husband and I agree that the time we spent on the porch watching the sunset was one of our most favorite parts of the whole trip. It is a very quick walk to beach access & the condo comes equipped with chairs, towels, and a cooler! We loved everything about Papakea!

Great communication about check-in, directions from airport, suggestions for food & activities, Covid restrictions & steps/process
Super location with great oceanfront view... took sunset pics from balcony every night & whale watched, too
Nice decor / furnishings... just right touches like magnetic door closers (it gets windy!) and door peg on front door for move in/move out
Home away from home feel
Great kitchen... lots of dishes, pots & pans, glassware, grilling stuff, etc...
Cupboards loaded with spices
Fans (ceiling & big moveable one) allowed us to sleep with only balcony screen to hear the ocean
Beach towels, beach chairs & cooler!
Washer/dryer very useful for extended stays
Papakea resort grounds nice with pool, hot tub, bbq grills, good Covid measures
Close to good restaurants & beaches... we still drove to these
We will return!
