About this apartment rental

From the moment you walk through the door of Konea 551, you will realize that you are entering one of Kaanapali Beach's crown jewels. This masterpiece boasts a stunning 5th-floor location on the interior oceanfront corner above the palm canopy in the closest wing to the ocean in Honua Kai's desirable Konea Tower. As you take in the views of the azure blue Pacific, Ka'anapali's iconic Black Rock, and Maui's neighbor islands of Lanai and Molokai from your private oasis of comfort and luxury, you will know that you have found paradise. This oceanfront Ali'i' (Hawaiian word for royalty) residence affords sweeping oceanfront views, abundant living space, opulent finishings, and a built-in Viking BBQ grill on the expansive 600 sq ft wrap-around balcony.

Konea 551's interior comfort blends the resplendent charm of old Hawaii with the sophistication of modern master craftsmanship and design. This residence accommodates up to six guests in three sumptuous king-sized beds. For your convenience, one of the king beds can be split into two XL twin beds. The spacious open floor plan provides the perfect tropical retreat for families and friends to gather and reconnect.

Your party will have plenty of room to spread out in the 2280 sq ft of interior living space. Konea 551 is within a stone's throw of the sand and but a short stroll from Honua Kai's many pools and amenities. Bathe in the warm Maui sun from the privacy of your own balcony because the spacious outdoor living area offers plenty of unobstructed tropical sunshine.

Each bedroom has an accompanying luxury bath for each party's privacy. The bathrooms are lavishly adorned with granite counters and glass and marble walk-in showers. Each primary bath offers a separate soaking tub and the first primary bath offers something only found in the most elite Honua Kai residences - an elegant free standing vessel-style soaking tub.

We encourage you to express your culinary creativity in the gourmet chef's kitchen. The space is fully equipped with stainless steel Viking appliances including dual ovens, and a built-in wine fridge. There is plenty of space on the ample granite countertops and we have provided all the cookware & utensils for you to prepare the perfect meal or refreshment... just bring the ingredients. Enjoy your meals on the spacious oceanview balcony or dine indoors in the climate controlled air conditioning. In addition, our commercial grade Vitamix blender lends itself well to preparing creative libations or smoothies with fresh local produce.

Take pleasure in spending your days at the resort’s three acre aquatic playground. With four separate swimming pools, a waterslide, waterfalls, fountains, and five hot tubs there will be no shortage of options for you and your loved ones to enjoy.

When it is time for a bite to eat, Honua Kai is home to the popular Duke’s Beach House Restaurant which serves breakfast, lunch, dinner, and cocktails. Duke’s specializes in serving up Hawaiian inspired cuisine using locally sourced ingredients and freshly caught seafood. Should you wish to enjoy a refreshment by the water, poolside service is available. For coffee, sandwiches, and farm fresh local items, the Aina Gourmet Market is conveniently located in the Hokulani Tower lobby.

Should you feel like pampering yourself with a refreshing massage or treatment, head downstairs to the acclaimed Ho’ola Health Spa. This sanctuary within the resort weaves Hawaiian inspired themes and ingredients into its wide array of signature treatments. Revitalize your senses with a Hawaiian Lomi Lomi Massage, Pohaku Stone Treatment, or Coffee Fruit Facial, or experience the health benefits of the spa’s unique Himalayan Salt Room.

If you wish to avoid excessive baggage fees from the airlines, consider packing lighter and utilizing the high efficiency Bosch washer and dryer in residence.

Free upgraded 300 Mbps high-speed Wi-Fi is available and is included with your stay. Complimentary booster seats, high chairs, and futons are also available upon request (based on availability).

Honua Kai occupies 38 pristine beachfront acres on the shores of Kaanapali’s North Beach so you’ll literally be just steps away from the tranquility of Maui’s shoreline. Stroll out to the beach to touch your toes in the soft sand or take a refreshing dip in the Pacific. An “Ohana Play Package” including Tommy Bahama beach chairs, BBQ equipment, and a portable cooler is provided complimentary.

For added convenience, our free courtesy shuttle offers complimentary transportation between Honua Kai and several West Maui locations.

If during your stay you require assistance or advice about the surrounding area or the suite, rest assured that you’ll be swiftly taken care of with aloha by one of our friendly & knowledgeable liaisons - hand-picked from West Maui’s leading luxury hotels. Help will never be far away because our offices are ideally located directly across the street.

***Please note that Honua Kai is located in a hotel zoned area meant for tourism and is thus safe from Maui's pending short term rental ban affecting apartment zoned areas.***

This was a family trip of four celebrating our daughter's graduation from college. The good: Very clean on arrival Huge balcony with an amazing sunset view and BBQ Large condo with big kitchen and a great gas stovetop Fab location in Kaanapali Beach chairs and cooler provided Good selection of martini and wine glasses As we paid considerably more than a waterfront, luxury hotel for the four of us to spend 10 nights, we are expecting that level of accommodations ... Needs work: Extremely worn out couch in the living area NEEDS to be replaced. The dishwasher either needs to be repaired or replaced, if we didn't essentially completely clean the dishes before putting them in, they weren't cleaned by the dishwasher. Kitchen items need to be reviewed for a basic cooking experience - we ended up buying and leaving - food storage containers, cutting board, wire whisk and potato peeler. The cheese grater was terrible. No hand soap provided in the kitchen - we also bought that. Lots of wood table surfaces, only 2 coasters and no placemats. 2 of the 4 TV's were not smart TVs

Our stay was very nice.We have stayed at the Hanua Kai several times. The unit 501 is well situated with great views. The unit itself is a bit worn-out and needs some minor repairs. I informed the rental agency. The Hanua Kai wasn't as busy as it has been in the past so that was nice. Dukes was greatcas always. Overall it was a nice week.

This condo has spectacular views of the ocean, nearby islands and whale watching! Too bad during our entire week long stay we were not allowed to go out on the very expansive balcony. We arrived to find signs on every balcony door saying “BEWARE Balcony Closed”, plus the outdoor furniture was piled up and tightly wrapped together. We were shocked that for the high price we paid for an oceanfront condo this was what we got! Also we were traveling with two young grandkids (3 and 5) who now could not enjoy the amazing deck area. Of course that meant immediately upon arrival I got on the phone with the local management rental company. It turns out the Honua Kai Resort was painting the exterior of the building including the railings and balcony baseboards and that was why we were not allowed out there. Every day a cherry picker type of machine would lift workers up to our 5th floor balcony or the 6th floor unit above us to work. Besides having no access to the balcony there was also a privacy issue. There were men working on our balcony! This was our very least favorite visit to Hawaii which we have done annually for years. Fortunately the management company did compensate us with a partial refund after I made daily calls complaining of us never being allowed on the balcony for the entire week.

Pros: Beautiful view of ocean and grounds, beautiful and spacious bathrooms and kitchen, lots of comfy seating inside and out, staff was friendly & helpful. The living room had comfy recliners. It was nice to be able to put your feet up. Cons: For the unit price, it should have been pristine, but wasn't. When we arrived, the first thing we noticed was a bad smell. The air-conditioning wasn't working in any of the rooms. There was a wet area rug in the living room with a loud fan going to speed up drying, which we turned off the next day since we couldn't hear each other talking. It felt like a sauna in there. The AC was soon fixed, it worked fine in the bedrooms, but never worked well in the living room. The tech said the air coming out of the vents was cold enough, but the fan wasn't powerful enough. He suggested we close the curtains in the afternoon...we came to see the ocean, not the curtains. The rug was finally removed. There was something spilled on the side of the couch and one of the bedrooms had handprints all over the mirror and we found a book behind the curtains, so it wasn't cleaned thoroughly. The curtains had an area streaked with black, front and back. There were holes in the decorative pillows on the bed and in the table runner in the dining area. The couches, while comfortable, looked dirty and worn. I realize we were in the tropics, but seeing bugs scatter when you turn on the kitchen light at night was rather disgusting. Not worth the cost.

The property has an absolutely beautiful view and the condo was very comfortable. I would suggest a new area rug and a new couch in the family room. The area rug is really dirty and the couch is worn out. Other than those two issues it was a very nice unit.

Super beautiful condo, the wrap around porch was ahhhhmazing! We did see a lot of whales! Dukes was wonderful, pool was great as well! You have to go down at 5am to a chair around the pool tho. The AC in the bedrooms was outstanding!!! But…Condo is lacking amenities for teens/kids. No beach gear besides chairs and a large cooler. The dryer needs to be replaced. It took over 2hrs to dry a towel, 2 pairs of socks, cargo shorts and a tshirt, 5 things-2hrs. Also had serious problem with no hot water after 8-10m. Emailed rental company and a maintenance team came and left, then another team came and left, then a maintenance mgr came and said he needed to replace a pipe and he’d recommend an outside company to come back the next day and remove the water tank. We never heard from anyone again. So I called 2 days later and she said our unit had been noted. Being noted does not help me to share a bathroom with 5 others. (Keep in mind this is a 3bed/3bath) That was awful! One bathroom had hot water if no one else did dishes or laundry! Nothing was ever resolved about the hot water issue or the dryer. No mention of any type of compensation at all. Beautiful condo, but not sure I’ll rent with Maui resort rentals again.

Had a wonderful time in this unit. Sitting outside viewing the ocean was wonderful and peaceful. The unit had everything needed especially beach chair's and cooler. I would rent this beautiful unit again as it's awesome for family time. However, I would not use the coffee that was left for us on the counter. Jan S.
