We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. My husband & I chose this location to give ourselves a small distance from the other 16 of us staying in the Kahana area. Our beach was far superior & the best for snorkeling! The room was well stocked with everything we needed and it was very clean.

Great location and very neat and clean. Would have liked two televisions rather than just one. We called the on island contact to see if the room was ready about 45 minutes before check in time and did not get a call back.

Lovely ground level studio, close to the pools and the beach. Clean and well-stocked , we would definitely stay there again.

March 2025

Great one bedroom with a perfect location in Napili. Great beach on one side and great snorkeling on the other. Owner was responsive and flexible. Grounds are beautiful and pools were lovely. Only downside was no view, but the complex provides a great view only 100 yards away. This really is the perfect condo for those on a budget, but still want a complex on the coastline.

We stayed in Kaanapali a couple years ago, and wanted to something in a smaller condo building, not a high-rise. We were very happy with our room overall. But we had 2 issues when checking in, there were 2 bags of laundry that housekeeping had left behind in the unit by the front door that they forgot to remove, and there was a line of tiny black ants running up the closet wall in the bathroom and over the shower. We couldn't get anyone to deal with either issue till the next day since it was after 4:30pm. They brought by a can of Raid on our second day.The bathroom was nice, other than needing more towel bars. And the bed was comfortable and roomy. I liked having a lanai on the ground floor, but maybe next time I'd get a 2nd floor room to have less chance of insects in the room. Having The Gazebo restaurant steps away from the room was great. And I was able to snorkel at the beach nearby, and again at Kapalua beach after an easy walk on the road. I would recommend using fins because I found the currents were pretty strong in Napili Bay, even in the inner part of the bay.

The location is great, but the unit is old with thin walls, you can hear your neighbors talk and yell at each other. The place can use some maintenance, the dishwasher is tricky to use, shower and walls need repair. The W/D are in a common area and not free. On the positive side, it’s less than 5 min to the beach.

We didn't realize we were staying in a resort, a great surprise. The apartment was recently remodeled, it was nicely done! AC mini units in both the bedroom and the living room, worked great, quiet. The resort has 2 nice pools and great locations for watching sunsets. Napali beach is a short walk and has easy entry and good snorkeling. Honokeana cove, aka turtle cove is a bonus snorkeling spot, also an easy walk away. We loved Napili, the market, the Sea House and the Gazebo.

I can’t say enough good things about this place. We are a family of 4 with two kids aged 4 and 6. We loved the grassy area outside the unit, the pool, the restaurant, the proximity to the beach and the most beautiful sunsets. The unit itself was fully stocked with everything we needed. We used the blender a fair bit to make delicious smoothies. The shower was great even for our kiddos. The beds were comfortable. The unit came with some beach chairs and a cooler. We purchased a cheap set of sand toys from the local market. The on sight store offered reasonable rental prices for snorkelling gear and buggy boards. The staff were friendly and responded quickly. We would 100% book this unit again. Thank you!

Pleasantly impressed by this condo. Finally a condo furnished with mid-century furniture. My suggestions:fewer & lighter beach towels, put up lots of hooks on the lanai and get of everything but the table & chairs, fix louvre window levers in bedroom. For older couples think about trip hazards

Napili Shores property and location of condo is terrific, but condo itself is just fair. Kitchen not well appointed and bedroom not cozy. Had problems with light fixtures. Would stay at Napili Shores again, different condo.

Excellent stay, great amenities, comfortable bed, nice pool and hot tub. Condo was stocked with everything you need, more than I was expecting! Beach is beautiful easy to access! Location is good close to many places if you don’t mind walking around, we walked over 10 miles in the 6 days and it was so fun! Lots of wildlife, whales, turtles, monk deal! Paradise!!

We loved this Condo! Everything to love! Great location, easy parking, magnificent view. It was quiet, private, no foot traffic to speak of. Close to bbqs and pool and the ever 5 star rated Gazebo restaurant.The bed was comfortable and clean.I want it a secret for booking my next visit!!

February 2025

The condo and accommodations were accurate and nice as stated in the reviews. Would be a great place to stay for a family with kids. Unfortunately, my wife and I were looking for a quiet, peaceful getaway. 50 feet from the patio is a hot tub and pool. It is open from 8am - 10pm. So expect noise pretty much between those hours. At the other end of the condo is the bedroom which is adjacent to the parking lot. Be ready to hear garbage trucks at 5:30 three days a week, cars coming and going and luggage being rolled to and from rooms and cars. It is a great location to stay, my recommendation would be to pay more for a room closer to the ocean away from the “family pool” and parking lot.

We had a great partial view of the ocean with views of the whales from our lanai. The lanai is out of the wind, close to the pool and a short distance from the beach. The kitchen was well stocked with tools, and we were able to cook some of our meals and enjoy the resort, rather than eating out. The ceiling fans were all we needed to keep the condo cool, and the resort is a very lovely spot on the west side of Maui.

The condo and the location are amazing. At this price it better be. Whale watching from the balcony at this time of year is spectacular. The beach is really beautiful. But the attitude of the hosts is very callous. 4pm check in being really late, I offered to pay for expedited cleaning but was declined. I have an 8 month old baby and reached there at 3pm. In spite of the cleaning already being done, I personally checked no one exiting the room after 3pm, when I called the hosts, they bluntly said " the room isn't released" without even bothering to check if the cleaning was already done. Yes the policy is 4pm check in but for someone who booked 6 nights, they could try to help out, at least when cleaning is already done.

We've stayed at Napili Shores before and really like the location--close to snorkeling, nice grounds, etc. This condo was nice, although the bed frame makes a LOT of noise when you move (like turn over) and the mattress and pillows could be replaced. The appliances could use replacing (dishwasher, fridge) and one of the ice trays leaked all over the freezer. Otherwise, it was clean and had what we needed for our stay, although it's close to the pool and bbqs, so if you want quiet in the morning, you'll want a different condo.

February 2025

We had a fine stay here in this serviceable unit. The furniture is tired and there are leaks in the ceiling. The AC stopped working mid-stay. The pool is noisy also right outside the balcony. The location besides that is good with a short walk to the beach and water. The snorkeling to the south is decent swimming out past the waves (if your skill allows) with frequent turtle and other sightings. The kitchen provided oil, salt, pepper and a few spices.

February 2025

I am hesitant to say how wonderful this stay was for fear it is not available the next time we want to come! We could not have been more pleased with our stay here. It is newly remodeled with beautiful and well furnished kitchen. The bathroom is newly remodeled with lots of room and a nice stand up shower. We had a lovely stay watching the ocean on the lanai.

We really enjoyed this property, location and staff. The pools were warm, grounds manicured and views unbeatable. Also enjoyed the convenience of the restaurants on property and no charge for parking. Great vacation!

This unit is ground floor steps away from the pool. The kitchen was well equipped and furniture clean. The bed and pillows could be updated but still comfortable. Lovely place. Close to our favorite beach Napili …The Gazebo restaurant for. Breakfast is very popular and has a great ocean view. Great place. Excellent location.

February 2025

Our room had a direct ocean-facing view of the ocean, Molokai, and Napili Bay off to the north. Every day we sat on the lanai and watched whale activity, surfers, awesome sunsets and beautiful moon and star gazing at night.Because of the lower temps and humidity, we slept with the lanai door partially open and slept to the soothing sound of waves.Our main complaint is the bed. Probably the worst bed I have slept in, in a long time. VERY soft and has deep depressions, evidence of people sleeping in it for a long time. Plus the bed creaked with every movement. I had read that others complained about the bed so I was surprised that it had not been changed out and I was disappointed the owners had not done that.Also, some of the outlets did not work, and the control for the fan above the bed was either on high or off. We could not adjust it otherwise.

The condo is very clean and has just about everything you need. The sound of the waves are just wonderful to listen to. When you don't want to go out for dinner or cook having two good restaurants on the premises is great, plus they do take out. Napili Shores is a great place to stay.

This is a great unit at Napili Shores. The furniture and cabinetry feels new, and it is decorated really nice--without feeling cluttered at all. There is plenty of seating and places to put bags/suitcases. The bed is soft and so comfortable! I slept great! Loved the ceiling fan in the bathroom which kept the steam/humidity away! I have traveled to Napili Shores for 25 years and will definitely stay in this unit again!!

Great property. Very close to the Gazebo restaurant (breakfast) and Sea Hose (dinner), with a view of the Ocean. And of course very close (short walk) to the beach. I had never visited in January, but because we wanted to whale watch, this was when we chose to go. The rough surf, reduced the ocean visibility, so not the best conditions for snorkeling. But we still managed to see two green turtles. Only negative was the check-in procedure. When I last stayed at Nipili shores Resort, there was a room refresh service that occurred every few days, where new towels were supplied and things straightened up. At checkin, I was told there would be a 58 serve charge, although it was never made clear to me what this was for. I asked if it had to do with the room refreshing service and I was told that service was no longer provided. I asked how to obtain new towels and was told to simply bring them to the frontt desk before 3 PM. When I brought towels to the front desk, I was told I would have to speak to the management company. I told them I had no idea who that was and the woman behind the desk asked how I made my reservation. I told her the reservation was made through vrbo and she then said, OK, call this number and someone will bring new towels. When we called the number, the woman who answered said she was on vacation. Eventually I ended p just washing the towels we had in the laundry room. Not the end of the world, but not what most of us consider part of a vacation

Very easy booking and check-in process. The property management team was very responsive via email prior to our arrival. The condo was clean, nice, and had everything we needed. There were beach towels, chairs, sand toys, paper towels, cleaning supplies, soaps, etc. I really appreciated the laundry detergent included in the room because the detergent offered in the community laundry room was for purchase in a machine that only accepted quarters… and I did not have any quarters! Thanks for a great stay! We would definitely stay in this condo again.

The overall was great. You could see water damage in kitchen and the blinds going out to balcony were not on correctly. Also had issues with the TV, not sure if batteries were too old but could not get remote control to work with the TV and cable

We’ve stayed in Napili Shores many times and I think this is our favorite unit thus far. Very clean and nicely appointed with a beautiful view of Napili Bay. Highly recommended.
