This was my family’s 4th trip to Maui and one of our favorite properties. The location is super convenient: it’s a short drive to shops and restaurants and we always had parking in the garage. You can rent mopeds from 808 Mopeds, which is a 1 minute drive. Downtown Lahaina is a 20 minute moped ride and about an 8 minute car ride away. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and the main living area is really big with lots of room to hang out, eat, watch tv, etc. The entire back patio wall opens up or you can just open a small section of it. The kitchen has plenty of prep space and the washer/dryer is a very convenient. We always had comfortable temperatures; the AC works really well and the large living room ceiling fan feels like a 2nd AC unit. There’s 3 smart TVs with access to most streaming apps. Some don’t require an account but others do. Read the pdf that the owner sends; it’s full of every detail you’ll need for everything in the property. There’s nothing that was missed and it’s super helpful. Any issues we had were quickly resolved by Monty the property manager. There’s plenty of towel dispensers on the property grounds and a few pools and hot tubs. Duke’s is a few footsteps away and is a great place for food and drinks and the to-go service is very reliable. We used one of the many gas grills to cook food we bought at Costco. With the sofa bed you can easily sleep 5 people. There’s a gym on site as well as a convenience store. Room keys are waterproof wristbands. I can’t say enough good things about our experience and the clear and prompt communication from the property owner and property manager.

Clean, stocked for family, great location on property, would return to same place if given opportunity in the future. Other family members in other units preferred this unit with the extra room on ground floor and ability to open up Lani doors and walk in and out to pools and beach from there for the kids.

This unit was in a prime location of the Honua Kai resort. Just steps away from the pools, with views from the ground floor lanai. We loved being able to enter/leave the unit from the lanai door, without dealing with hallways or elevators. The lanai door wouldn't lock from the outside when we first arrived but we let the property manager know and engineering was out the same day to fix it. The beds were comfortable, the rooms were huge, and the unit was clean. Most importantly, its location can't be beat. We had a great trip!

We stayed with another family for a week in March and this was the perfect home base for our perfect vacation. The ground floor unit was a game changer to be able to get in and out without having to deal with elevators, lobbies, etc. The high ceilings in this unit make the place feel even larger than it already is. It came equipped with everything we needed throughout our stay. Loved having the Vitamix to be able to do smoothies and the Instant Pot for easy cooking. Honua Kai is the perfect resort with so many great amenities and a beautiful beach just steps off the property. Our kids LOVED exploring all the different pools/hot tubs. Towel tracker was super convenient though make sure to get your towels early in the morning as some days they seem to go fast. The beach out front of Honua Kai was super fun. The waves were a blast to play in and the kids were even able to see lots of cool tropical fish with just a lifejacket and goggles 15-20 feet from shore. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

This was our 7th trip to Honua Kai and without a doubt Konea 103 is our favourite unit. It was also our first time in a ground unit and we enjoyed not having to deal with elevators, the kids could just go outside on their own. When we weren’t at a restaurant, each meal was on the lanai. Monty was great and very responsive to questions, the check in and out process was seamless. Overall the unit was spectacular and we look forward to coming back.

We stayed here for three nights after a 10 day stay in Kihei. We loved it here. Everything about this condo was perfect. Our 22 month old could walk outside the door and play soccer in the grass or we could go for a short walk and be in the pool. The pool was amazing. Great place for the kids and lots of other kids at the resort for the little ones to make friends. Communication with Brandon always had fast responses and we were happy that it worked out we could get late check out. I would definitely stay here again. Only heads up I will give is the beds were too firm for our liking. Although I am sure there are people that prefer firm, it was tough to get a good nights sleep. We also had 2 babies in the room with us that used the 2 or the 3 playpens there and had a pretty good sleep. We put two of the playpen mattresses in one playpen to make it softer for our older (almost 2) and our 7 month old just had one and they both seemed comfortable at night.

Loved staying at this ground floor condo. It was so convenient for the 10 of us to gather (we rented 2 other condos on 2nd floor for 6 other family members). We were right outside of the pool and also great access to the beach. Condo was supplied with everything we needed for our weeks stay. Would highly recommend. It was also very easy to work with the concierge and booked all the excursions that we wanted.

Beautiful accommodations and plenty of room for my husband and 2 adult children. Beautiful pools, nice restaurant, centrally located to many other restaurants, very narrow beach

Such an amazing trip!!! We love this place. We have rented a ground floor unit each time and this unit was perfect for our family of 5. The owner/host Brandon was excellent to work with and I will definitely be looking to rent from him again in the future. The unit was updated, clean and welcoming. We cooked in the condo most nights and it has everything you would need and more. The unit is also located very close to the pools which was a huge bonus and being located on the ground floor that opens out to the well manicured grassy area of the resort was perfect for our young children. We can't wait to return. This was the most memorable and relaxing Thanksgiving we have ever had. Mahalo

Very nice condo in a beautiful resort. Property was clean and well maintained. The kids enjoyed the different pools and waterslide.

We stayed a week at this condo in late October 2021 and had a phenomenal stay! This unit is gorgeous and is in one of the best locations in the entire resort – the lanai is just a few steps away from the pool but is also surrounded by very nice landscaping that provides some privacy for al fresco dining or lounging on the lanai. The beach was great and only about a two-minute walk from the unit - soft sand, plenty of space to spread out, and good for swimming and snorkeling when the waves weren't too big. We were very happy with the beach supplies provided with the condo – chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, etc. The condo itself was amazing – very well maintained and wonderfully outfitted. The king size beds and en suite bathrooms for both bedrooms were perfect for two couples travelling together. We’ve stayed with other couples in VRBO rentals in the past and usually one couple gets the primary bedroom while the other couple ends up with a shared bathroom or smaller bed – not so in Honua Kai 103 – both couples enjoyed a ‘primary bedroom’ with a private bathroom – what a great floor plan! The living and dining areas were also both well sized and comfortable for four adults. The furnishings were high-quality and comfortable, especially the bedding. We all slept very well on the comfy beds and enjoyed the quality linens. Communication with the owner and property manager were excellent and we were provided with a very comprehensive guide to the resort, the unit, and the area before we arrived which made it really easy for us to orient ourselves quickly upon arrival. I highly recommend this resort and particularly this unit and would absolutely stay here again on a future visit to Maui!

We had an amazing stay in Konea 103. The room came equip with everything we could possibly need. The ice chest, umbrella, sand toys, and boogie boards were so awesome to have already stocked in the room. Everything was clean and comfortable. The location itself could not be any better. I would highly recommend! Can not wait to come back.

Awesome family vacation spot. Photos truly do not do this place justice. Ground floor unit was the best! Who needs a balcony when you can just walk right out through your private lanai and grassy area. Unit location is close to pool, beach, and Duke's restaurant. Peekaboo ocean views were a pleasant sight while sipping coffee from the huge lanai. Our family of 5 (2 adults, teen, and tween, plus grandma) enjoyed our stay. The unit was clean (I'm picky about cleanliness). Beds and furniture were comfortable. All beds are KING size with 2 beds located in the second bedroom. Kitchen had everything we needed to make great meals. In-unit washer and dryer were very helpful. Beach gear was plentiful with enough boogie boards and chairs to keep everyone happy. The resort itself is pleasant. There are many pools to choose from, beach is walking distance, an onsite restaurant nearby, and a general store onsite that has an assortment of grocery items, sandwiches and coffee. Parking is not assigned but spots are plentiful if you return at a decent hour. There aren't many handicap spot so plan accordingly if needed. Overall Brandon (owner) was very great to work with and quick to respond to messages. Process from check in to check out was easy and painless. This place felt like home and I will definitely be contacting Brandon again for our next trip to Maui.

This property was a dream. The location was perfect and the ground floor convenience with the lanai access, made it extra special. The condo was so luxurious in its comfort and Brandon, the owner, and Monty, the property manager, were incredibly responsive and helpful in ensuring that we planned appropriately for the best vacation and were well taken care of while here! Thank you so much for a dream vacation and stay.

This condo is the perfect place to stay at Honua Kai. Easy access to the pools and beach. Our family of 7 fit well and would return in a heartbeat.

Honua Kai is a great place for a family vacation in Maui. Great location, close to everything and nice beach. The floor unit with direct access to the pool areas is great. The apartment is well equipped and well taken care of.Alex

We stayed for 3 nights at the end of a 10 day trip to Maui. You really can’t beat the location of this unit. First floor, with a private lanai, and it takes about 15 seconds to walk to the pool and towel dispenser. Unit itself is large and clean, with everything you need for a great stay. Communication from both Brandon and the on-island contact is excellent. We usually stay in Wailea on our vacations to Maui, but if we can get this unit, we will be coming back to stay here on future trips. Highly recommend.

Great family location, awesome kitchen, spacious, good pools and access to beach. Love the ground floor unit with large outdoor patios.

Outstanding unit great location. The furniture is dated and a bit dingy either needs to be upholstery cleaned or replaced.

We had such a lovely time and the unit was great. Being on the ground floor is so convenient and the Lanai was like a little oasis. Close to the pool, the beach, Duke’s - it really has all you need!

The condo was sparkling clean when we arrived. Fully stocked for preparing meals. Owner and local manager were fast to respond to any questions. The unit has a beautiful patio that leads out to the pool area. Pools are less than 100’ from the back door. You can hear the waves from the ocean from the patio at night. It was an amazing property we will be back for sure.

We loved our stay at Honua Kai in this ground floor unit. The ease of going in and out to and from the pool, beach & BBQ was such a plus. This is our third time staying at Honua Kai and we will for sure be back. The grounds are beautiful. The location is perfect. The kitchen was well stocked. The beds where comfy and the option of splitting the king into two twins was a plus so our kids didn’t have to share a bed. There was a nice ocean view on the lanai which made for a wonderful spot to eat breakfast. It was great to have chairs, an ice chest, umbrella and sand toys provided in the unit. There was also plenty of dishwasher soap, laundry detergent, trash bags, paper towels and TP (which we typically end up having to buy). The Honua Kai and this unit made for the perfect vacation. I can’t wait to come back.

This was a great place and anyone would love to stay here. Even the sleeper bed was great. Wonderful stay look forward to staying here again. Sean

We love Honua Kai in general with all of the great amenities, but this condo in particular was really great! We especially appreciated all our f the kitchen amenities including an upgraded vitamix that we used daily. Also, being on the ground floor we had the outdoor space which was beautiful and super relaxing. Everything in this unit was wonderful. Thanks!

We had a great stay! Room was clean and was the perfect location. It was our first time staying on the ground level and we are hooked as it was so easy and great to come and go.

We love Honua Kai generally and this property was terrific. We like ground floor units for easy access and this one pairs that with enough privacy and distance from walkways. Everything was clean, communication was great, and we appreciated the subtle upgrades like a sleepersinseattle sleeper/sofa and Vitamix blenders. Great unit for some time in the sun!

This was a very enjoyable stay for my family and I. Hope to be back! Great accommodations!

This apartment was a great choice for our family with three kids. We enjoyed the proximity to the beach by having a ground floor apartment. The pictures don't show that even though it is on the first floor, the views are beautiful. You see peeks of the ocean and swaying palm trees. The beautiful landscaping makes the lanai feel very private. The apartment was very clean and well appointed. Brandon and Monti were very responsive and super helpful. We will definitely return.

This place went above and beyond 5 stars for me. If I could give it an extra bonus star I would..
