We have stayed here a few times now and we have never been disappointed. It's a lovely property. This is our first time staying in the Villa. We loved the space. One thing I wished was that they have maid service such as in the towers but otherwise it was great.

Perfect location and amazing communication from the host! Room was exactly what we needed and stocked with beach items, cooler, and the pool was so convenient and close especially with it being our infant’s first experience at a hotel. The amenities were perfect!

We had an absolutely fantastic time at Honua Kai. The condo, pools, beach, restaurant, store, etc was A! It was very easy to communicate (via text or phone call) with Maui Resort Rentals. They helped provide for extra items we wanted during the stay with a simple text message. I can't wait to rent from you again!

Great spot. Would have loved to be facing the Ocean instead of over the driveway.

Overall, it was a great place to stay. Big, spacious, all the amenities. The unit did need some repairs - broken light in the main closet, clogged sink in the main bath, wonky washing machine door, no daily cleaning service included with stay. It has easy access to the beach and use of the pools at Honua Kai, plus the grounds are beautiful. One thing that could be improved is the pool/beach towels provided. These blue towels are poor quality and no bigger than a bath towel. Nothing luxurious about the towels to remind you of the luxurious condo.

First, the property manager and owner were VERY helpful giving details about accessibility and additional information about the easiest place to enter for snorkeling. The unit was not far from the elevator and had tile flooring at the entrance, which was great for parking my scooter without soiling the carpet. We could scoot down the boardwalk a short distance to the beach and reef and snorkeled 4 of the 6 days we were there, so it was SUPER EASY! We even saw a sea turtle 2 days in a row! OF NOTE: I can walk short distances, but the property may not be ideal if you truly cannot walk.The unit itself was very nice with a great view of the mountains (and a welcoming rainbow) and a balcony view of the ocean. The furniture was nice and there was a good table for meals. We cooked a fair amount and the dishes were enough to work with, though a cookie sheet might be helpful.The beds were comfortable and it was very quiet. Blackout curtains were effective. Sleeping was relatively easy.The bathroom was quite nice and I greatly appreciated the bathtub so I could sit to bathe.We used the washer/dryer and appreciated the instructions and laundry detergent pods.The beach equipment was nice and my friend used the swim fins for snorkeling, since she hadn't brought hers.My only thought (personal choice, really) is that carpet in a beachfront condo can get dirty very easily. I do prefer solid-state flooring.

Owner was great at responding promptly before our stay and communicated with us at arrival. The on site manager was equally as good at communicating with us and throughout our stay if we needed. The condo was clean and worked well for us and our 2 kids age 6 and 8. The kitchen was well stocked but no storage for your pantry items. The kids loved the pools and snorkeling right off the beach plus enjoyed the amenities in the condo for the pools and beach. They loved looking for wildlife (geckos, fish, frogs and cats) plus the daily rainbow sightings off the lanai. We’re already planning our next trip back sooner than later.

Really loved our stay here, very clean, the location is great. It really feels like a resort, you have several pools were you can relax and it is right in front of the beach.

The condo and the property grounds were all maintained. Condon itself was well furnished and comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils but a few starter things like salt, pepper, Saran Wrap, etc would have been a nice extra. Condo was very quiet and ac worked well though was not needed too much during our stay. View from the lanai was not the best but we knew that going in as the pictures on the listing were accurate. It was still a nice place to have all our breakfast and dinner meals though. The Mauna Kai grounds are well kept and the pool facilities are fantastic. Having Dukes on site was also great. The beach in front of the condo was also excellent and it was great to have the walking path connecting you down the coastline. Location is also great for walking with multiple restaurants, food carts and a grocery within 5 min. Would definitely recommend the unit, complex and property management co to others visiting Maui.

First timers to Hawaii. Room was lovely. Overlooking the front of resort but pretty views of the mountains. Pretty sure we were the only people on that side.

In all, it was a wonderful stay. Honua Kai is a great resort and this room was exactly as described. Fully stocked kitchen made meal prep easy to do and the views from the balcony could not be beat!

One of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed. The room was really nice and had everything we needed and more. Mark and Barb were easy to communicate with and answered all of my questions promptly. The lanai was big and beautiful and had great views of the ocean and pools. We walked to Whalers Village a couple of times and food trucks are nearby. We definitely want to return one day.

Property is stunning with an incredible ocean view and a quick walk to the pool, ocean, and Duke's restaurant. On top of this, I've never received this kind of service from a property owner. He gave easy to follow check in instructions and even personalized recommendations on eateries and activities. We hope to stay here again next time we're Maui.

The Honua Kai is one of the favorite resorts on Maui. The grounds are immaculate and the beach access is fantastic with amazing sunset views daily! My kids (13 and 15) loved the pools. Access to Lahaina was easy and we used the beach walk regularly to explore. The unit was clean and perfect for what we needed. My kids found the pull out sofa comfortable. The 2 sets of snorkel gear, beach chairs and cooler came in handy. Check in and out was a breeze and communication was great.

We loved our stay... the room came along with all the beach thing needed to play and stay comfortably. The beds were comfy, the view was beautiful and the property is so nice. The pools are super fun and Dukes is a great perk. Also the coffee shop was great.Will hopefully come back with our whole family next time!

My boyfriend and I enjoyed our stay at Honua Kai. Great location and loved being able to walk along the beach every morning. The studio was perfect for two people. We appreciated that the kitchen had basic cooking suppliers (olive oil, spices, etc). We look forward to staying at this location on our next Maui trip.

Loved this place.Very comfortable for two couples. The grounds were beautiful and easily accessible to most attractions. I could have stayed forever! We were there in March 2025. The pools were very busy with lots of kids.I wished the management co would have designated an adults only area as well as not decide to change the garbage at 5:30am.Regardless,we had a great time.

We had an amazing time staying at Honua Kai. The resort amenities were incredible for families, the property manager had all requested items (pack and play and booster) in the room for our anrrival and the views and beachfront access made this property stellar. The unit was clean, comfy, and beautiful we can’t wait to come back!

Liked it so much the first time we stayed at the Honua Kai about 5 years ago. It was the same amazing experience this time. A very family friendly environment with plenty of activities for kids. The location is also a plus. We will be coming back every time we visit Maui

we have been to the islands multiple times but this condo was by far the nicest we've ever rented. Shelly was very communicative and helpful, the condo was clean and well stocked. It's steps away from the beach, pool, Duke's and the beach walk. It has an amazing view. We couldn't have asked for more. We'll be back!

We had a great visit for 8 days during spring break. Loved the location and access to pool and ocean/beach. We asked for an early check in as well as late check out but since they were fully booked we didnt get either although we sat outside the unit for an hour and no one was cleaning and it was ready but we couldnt access until 4pm. We also had issues with the AC and Fan breaking in the Master bedroom. after 2 nights of ot sleeping because of the heat, we contacted the rental agency and they were very quick to respond and did fix the AC but not the fan. We also requested some additional cleaning supplies and garbage bags and they were very quick to respond and deliver items. Favorite part was the spacious and well stocked kitchen and the views of the ocean in the morning, right out the door. Will definitely be back!

Loved the property for our family of 5 (kids ages 10-15). The location was central to everything we wanted to do on the island and resort staff were all very kind and helpful. The ground floor location was amazing since we could walk right out onto the grass from the lanai. The communication from the owner and property manager was quick, thorough, and very helpful. We will 100% stay here again on our next trip to Maui!

Upon arrival the smoke alarm/carbon monoxide detector was beeping every 30 seconds or so indicating a fault.I called the Maui Resort Rental number 3 time over the next three plus hours trying to get someone from maintenance to come by (before bed time after a long travel day). The admin who answered the phone each time seemed frustrated at the lack of response from a maintenance crew.Finally, after no one came by, I disconnected the smoke alarms(2) and the CO2 detector to determine the problem. I was hesitant to do so at a condo knowing they would probably frown anyone tinkering with those devices.I determined it was the CO2 detector, unplugged it and reconnected the two smoke detectors. Finally no more beeping every 30 seconds!Amazingly enough, about 15 min later the maintenance staff from the condo stopped by because my disconnecting the smoke alarms had tripped a fault in their control center.Although they were nice enough they did not care about the CO2 detector working only that the smoke detectors were back up and running.Hopefully your stay will not require any of the maintenance staff.
