If you are looking for lodge that will force you to take advantage of the outdoors, and not just sit in your room and watch TV, then the Nalu Kai Lodge is for you! This cute, clean, comfortable lodge is located in the heart of Paia, Maui. You couldn't ask for a better location. All the great shopping, dining, and... more

Cute lodge, but big limitations. The rooms are pretty small. Bathroom area is open to room with only a curtain as a door. Not a problem for us, but could be for others. The lack of air-conditioning is a big problem until the sun goes down and then it still takes awhile for the room to cool off. The security... more

I read the on line reviews and really wanted to love it. Many things written are true. The rooms are nicely decorated [cool rock bottom shower stall] and the curtain instead of a bathroom door worked out ok. Also is in a good location which is walk to everything. We must not have been there on the right nights, because... more

NKL is as nice or even nicer than it looks online!. A precious place in a great town. The rooms are very pretty (I want that bathroom floor!)and give you just what you need; a great shower, perfect bed and refrigerator...if you are into seeing the island, surfing and thus not spending your day in your room. We are, so... more

As a single, female traveler, I felt very safe and secure in my cozy and clean room! The location is ideal! Within walking distance to everything in town, and only a 2 minute drive to Ho'okipa for the best surfing/windsurfing. Hands down, I would recommend Nalu Kai lodge to anyone looking for a unique experience that is much more enjoyable... more

We (husband, 2 month old infant and myself) stumbled upon Paia on the way to Hana and it ended up being our favorite place! After splurging and staying at a waaaaay expensive place literally 15 yards away (which was lovely), we needed a much more reasonably priced stay. This was a last minute "booking" - I found them in the... more

I agree with all of the good reviews below! This place feels like sweet breeze smellin', beachy, authentic, cool, beautiful north shore Maui! Clean, comfortable, great tradewind breeze, decent price. Waking distance to everything in cool Paia town. Close to the best beaches in Maui (north shore) & on the Road to Hana. It is not a resort.....Thank God!! more

We just stayed at Nalu Kai. It’s not the most fancy place around, but it is the most genuine flavor of the north shore. If you want to meet real people, who aren’t wearing a uniform, but can give you the good suggestions, places to see, and things to do, Nalu Kai works. We stayed in one of the upstairs... more

We were to stay here the last 2 nights of our honeymoon. When we got there, we were completely unhappy. The room was extremely small, hotter than a sauna and there was absolutely no view of the ocean or mountain which was stated in the property description. We could not believe it. The walls were paper thin, there were soo... more
