This place is fantastic. Excellent service and very competent and friendly staff. A special kudos to Kevin Maratea of 5 Star Scuba for his instruction,enthusiasm,and knowledge enabling this neophyte's dream of finally going scuba diving come true..A quick but thorough crash course in the pool led to an incredible dive right off the resort beach where the coral reefs reveiled...

My wife and I stayed at Honua Kai for a week in February in a studio. It was the perfect size for two people and had great views from the 9th floor. The room was fairly clean (except for the sticky floors) and the kitchen was brand new and well appointed. The folding doors on the lanai were our favorite... More

We've spent a lot of time on Maui over the years -- this resort is a wonderful addition to the choices available in Ka'anapali. By far the nicest suites and best value on the west side of the island. We stayed in a Studio on the 5th floor with a direct ocean view. The Studio in this property is larger... More

Booked after reading Tripadvisor reviews and was happy with choice. We had a 2 bedroom apartment on the 5th floor, with ocean views. Sun all day and very quiet. Well appointed with brand new furnishings and fittings. Great coffee in cafe and fairly close to supermarket. You need a hire car to get around. More

All of the reviews prior to mine are correct. It's a new property, feels clean, and looks nice. The rooms have full, upgraded kitchens, and big bathrooms. They have Aveda bath products. We loved being able to do laundry the night before we left. The lanai's are wonderful to wake up and have coffee outside. Beach is beautiful. (coral right... More

We had stayed at the Ka'anapali Alii (which was fantastic but much more expensive) on our first trip and looked forward to this trip back to Kaanipali. Although this resort is beautiful, it is off the beaten path with not as much to do. I guess you could walk to Whaler's Village, but it's a long walk. Duke's is great,... More

Make sure to book an ocean view room. We stayed in a 1-bedroom mountain view room in the Hokulani tower in Feb which should also be defined as "highway and water treatment plant" view. It's noisy and occasionally smelly with lanai doors open. Overall, it's a great resort for families with kids. Nice rooms, nice grounds, fish feedings every morning... More

From the first moment we pulled up to the curb island life on maui began. The staff took care of everything for us...bags to the room...seamless check in process...giant patio (we learned it is called a lanai) bay doors open and let that warm island air relax your soul. Special requests? No problem! Cut yourself on the coral? Friendly, knowledgeable... More

I'll start this review by saying that Honua Kai is not a Hotel or a Resort. It's amazing that they charge a $25.00 resort fee, because this place is merely a Condominium Complex. I've read the numerous other reviews on this place, and most of them are spot on. The rooms are nice, because they are new, but everything else... More

I wish I could give it 4.5 stars. My family of 5 stayed here in a two-bedroom unit. We rented through vrbo and the owner was extremely helpful pre-trip with suggestions and everything went off without a problem. We had stayed in Honolulu for 5 days prior and flew here for a 6 night stay in Maui. My husband and... More
