Paki Maui

An older, low-key complex right on the water in Honokowai, where the lanai is the draw: whales in winter, turtles grazing the reef and surf you hear all night. It suits couples and families who want simple, walkable condo living over resort extras and can live without AC.

What guests say

Guests love

  • Whales from the lanai. In winter guests watch whales for hours from their lanais, and some mention clear looks across to Molokai and Lanai; a few say to bring binoculars.
  • Turtles on the reef out back. Guests snorkel right behind the building over a shallow reef and swim with turtles, and a few even spotted a monk seal.
  • Surf you fall asleep to. The buildings sit at the waterline, so with the sliders open the waves are a constant soundtrack day and night.
  • Food right across the street. The fish market, food trucks, ABC store, bakery and snorkel rentals are an easy walk, so many guests skip the car for meals.

Worth knowing

  • Most units have no AC. Most units rely on ceiling and standing fans plus the ocean breeze; many guests found that enough, but some found afternoons and warm nights uncomfortable.
  • Little beach at the building. The shore here is seawall, rock and reef; guests walk to the park next door, which has a gentler beach for kids.
Choosing a unit: The whale watching and surf sounds come with the ocean-facing units; a few garden-side and courtyard units have little or no ocean view, so check which side a listing faces if the lanai view matters.

★★★★★ July 2026

If you want a quiet getaway, Paki Maui condo is excellent. There is no AC, which I thought would be an issue, but we were on the move most days and the morning/evening breezes from the open doors were part of the experience. The balcony views won't disappoint. Other guests commented that they could watch whales from the balcony and that snorkeling was best right from this area. You can see the small pool and the cute grassy loungers right by the ocean from our balcony.The rooms were open and spacious, and I loved having an in-room washer and dryer. There was a bag of decorative pillows that smelled strange, but it was addressed. Other than that, it was very clean and a great price. The room here is quiet and secluded, but it's next to many dining and shopping options.

Wonderful view! Although we did have a few minor issues in the beginning our host solved the problem promptly. Perfect location for family fun! We saw turtles every single day from the lanaii.

Gorgeous view right on beach. Penthouse had everything you could need, beach chairs, boogie boards, wheeled cooler plus supplies for the whole week not just a day or two. Would definitely stay again and recommend to family and friends!

Our host was terrific! We were initially needy as it related to our understanding of the Internet and how the A/C worked. Both Amy and Guido were exceptionally responsive to us and were very understanding. The two condos were perfect for our family of nine, and in an excellent location to see all that Maui has to offer. The views were absolutely stunning as well!!!

Fully equipped kitchen, bed was very comfortable, but the best part was the oceanfront view!! Beautiful!!!

★★★★★ July 2026

Beautiful view from this condo! Condo is not a “clean” as it looks in the pictures. Bathrooms could definitely use a revamping, especially 2nd bath. Inside needs repainting/replacing especially baseboards. Curtains are in pretty bad shape. All in all it was fine but just know pictures are much prettier than actual condo… but like I said view was spectacular!

Mostly one-bedrooms on the water's edge, where green sea turtles graze along the sea wall in the late afternoon and a raised sundeck catches sunsets and winter whales. Ocean entry is rocky with no sand out front, and nearly every unit relies on fans.

Low-rise and quiet, with a grassy lawn, pool and hot tub above a small pocket beach where green sea turtles often haul out in the mornings and easy snorkeling starts right in front. Few units have AC, and lofts can run warm.

Oceanfront beside the ancient Kalepolepo fishpond, whose calm lagoon suits small children and draws resting sea turtles. Add a heated oceanfront pool and a rooftop grill deck with 360-degree views; snorkelers drive to Wailea for clearer water.
