What's nearby: You'll be staying only five miles away from one of the most picturesque destinations in the Hawaiian Islands, Lahaina. This charming town offers an endless array of beaches, activities, and luxury vacation rentals. From hiking in the rainforest to shopping in the historic downtown area, this lovely town on the island of Maui provides the ultimate tropical getaway. One of the best beaches you can find nearby is actually half a mile from your home and is Honokowai Beach Park. Less than one and a half miles is Kahekili Beach Park, a gorgeous location that is ideal for snorkeling. Lahaina Harbor offers incredible whale watching tours and the chance to spot humpback whales during the winter months.
Guests can use the shared pool, hot tub, barbecue area, and beach access from the oceanfront property. Elevators and disabled parking serve the resort. Select units include air conditioning and in-unit laundry. Outdoor seating is available around the landscaped grounds.
The neighborhood: Papakea is in the Honokowai area of West Maui, a coastal stretch just north of Kaanapali with a more relaxed, local pace. Honokowai Beach is nearby for a swim or a shoreline walk, and neighborhood markets and casual restaurants make it easy to pick up poke, fruit, or dinner without a long drive. Kaanapali's beach and Whalers Village are farther south, while Kapalua's bays and trails are up the coast. It is a practical base for couples and small families who want West Maui beaches close at hand.
Getting around: Kahului Airport (OGG) is about 40 to 45 minutes from the Lahaina area along Maui's west side. A rental car is recommended for beaches, shopping, and dining along the coast, including Kaanapali and Kapalua. Nearby beaches may be just minutes away, but most destinations require driving. Parking is typically available in designated lots, though popular beaches and restaurants can fill up.

The first day we arrived at the unit the air conditioner did not work. It was 87 °F in the room and we had a 18-month-old with us which made sleeping very uncomfortable the first night. we got very little sleep. I called the next day to have someone come and fix it and they said they would send someone ASAP but there was no timeline provided for when this would occur. We had to stay another night in a very hot room and got poor sleep. After the second night we were able to be moved to a new condo within the complex after I had to call again but we walked into the new condo and there was a huge puddle of water underneath the air conditioning unit in the bedroom. I called and notified the property management company about this and they said that they would get someone out immediately to fix this but recommended we leave the air conditioner off to avoid water damage in the condo (this was unit E203 so beware of it as well). We stayed another 3 days and no one came out to fix the air conditioning unit while we were there so again we had to sleep in hot weather. This really put a negative note on her vacation due to poor sleep for all of us. I requested some kind of refund as we were told at time of rental that there would be air conditioning but this did not occur. I do feel as though some kind of partial refund is appropriate given that the room was not as described in the rental posting and no one came to fix any of the AC units while we were there for 6 days.
I love the property. Been staying there for 34 years.
We had a lovely stay at Papakea. Loved the location - great views from the lanai and great walking distance to many amenities! The Kaanapali area of Maui is just perfect! We did have a couple hiccups during our stay - the resort didn't have the reservation from Vacasa so check-in was delayed, we didn't have sheets for the pull out sofa and kids ended up sleeping on top of a blanket the first night, wifi cut out one morning, and we were offered late checkout and then when we responded to the text to book it we were told it was no longer was available. Overall, we felt these were minor inconveniences compared to the overall experience. The resort was very nice and well maintained and we really enjoyed our vacation and would book at the same resort again!
