About this property

May Special! 4 Bed/4 Bath Kama'aina-Style Home across the street from Napili Bay

Locally owned and operated property, in business since 2013. County of Maui Vacation Rental Permit Number: STWM 2017/0006, TMK: 2430020770001 (TA) Registration Number: TA-155-824-1280-01.

Napili Hale: A Kama'aina Gem

Positioned in the heart of Napili, fronting Lower Honoapi’ilani Road, the Napili Hale is one of the last big-Kama’aina properties in the area. This 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom, 2,000 sq ft home sits on a lush 16,000 sq ft lot, shaded by towering 100-year-old monkey pod trees. It's been in the family for five generations and, like most kama'aina homes, it's all about that casual, island vibe.

Just a five-minute stroll to Napili Bay—a picture-perfect white-sand beach where sunsets over Lana’i and Moloka’i will leave you mesmerized.
The layout is effortless: the north side of the house features two ensuite bedrooms, a spacious kitchen, living room, and TV. The south side has another ensuite bedroom, plus a standard bedroom with a bathroom right next door. There’s also a wet bar and a cozy lounge area with a large couch and TV—perfect for getting comfortable and watching your favorite show. The entry room’s French doors open up to create seamless indoor/outdoor living.

2023 Updates:

We've refreshed the place with new king-size mattresses, a full house repaint, a Trex front deck, and some fresh furnishings including a giant L-shaped couch.

This home is part of a pocket of residential homes of generational families from the area—quiet and unpretentious. Privacy is key, so please respect the neighbors and avoid walking or driving up the private road—it’s a peaceful residential area.

The Highlights:

• Kama'aina-style home in prime Napili location, steps from Napili Bay
• Spacious open floor plan with living room, dining area, family room,
and kitchen
• Bonus living space with wet bar, perfect for entertaining or relaxing
• 4 bedrooms: King / King / Queen / 2 Twin beds
• 4 full bathrooms
• Fully equipped kitchen with all the essentials (cookware, dinnerware,
etc.)
• Full-size appliances: 2 refrigerators, beverage cooler, dishwasher, gas
cooktop, and oven
• Dining for 8, plus extra seating for 4 and bar seating for 3
• Two washers and dryers on-site
• Outdoor BBQ for grilling
• Big yard with picnic table for al fresco dining
• Fast WiFi throughout the property
• Plenty of parking for everyone

Notes:
• Local feral roosters roam the area—some find them charming,
others... not so much.
• The neighborhood has a rural Hawaiian feel, though it’s close to
resort area amenities.

Bonus: The house is now outfitted with newly installed split AC units in every bedroom and living area

We’ve made packing a breeze with essentials like irons, hairdryers, bath and beach towels, plus a starter supply of paper goods, soaps, laundry detergent, and more.

Get ready to unwind and enjoy the Napili Hale.

Great location but issues

The property seemed clean but there are essentially two units joined together and there was a bad odor and possible mold in one of the units. We could not use one of the large bedrooms at all on that side and the guest in the other bedroom on that side stayed but had to keep the window open and spent as little time in that room as possible. We essentially had to double up on the one side of the home. We did inform the manager and they did come out to fix some minor things promptly but this wasn’t addressed. This place should not be advertised as luxury as it was very basic although clean. Great location.

Great house in Napili.

We had an amazing stay at the Napili house. Traveled with our parents and kids, slept all 7 of us in comfort. Location is incredible, walk across the road through the resort and you are on one of the nicest beaches in the world. Tennis courts and Pickle Ball are a 5 min walk to Kapalua. Snorkeling, swimming, Paddleboarding, great food all easily accessible. Colleen took care of any needs we had promptly. Would highly recommend.

The Perfect Hawaiian Vacation Home

The house and property were a perfect fit for our family. The huge trees out front shade the entire property and allow for a very relaxing afternoon sitting in the fresh air and breeze. The host was very attentive to our needs and questions. Check in was easy. The house had everything we needed; beach chairs, beach towels, plenty of bathroom items for your whole stay. We will definitely return. Walk to Napili Beach was less than 5 minutes, and that was with a toddler!

Awesome Family Retreat

We could not have found a better house for our family! With toddlers waking up early and old folks sleeping in, it was perfect because the house is split into two areas. It was also great because it was walking distance to our favorite beach, Napili Bay. We had a family wedding a half mile away at the Pineapple Chapel in Kapalua! Couldn’t have asked for more! Everything was perfect at the house! Check in and Check out was very easy!

Prefect spot in Maui

This spot is directly across from Napili Bay. It has a big yard in the front with giant tree. Plenty of room for the 8 of us. Short walk to the beach. Beware of loud roosters in the neighborhood. We had our water shut for about 12 hours. A neighborhood issue, but the property manager got it taken care of quickly. We will be back to stay here again. Very nice place.

Heaven!

My 3 children, my daughter-in-law, 4 grandchildren and I enjoyed a heavenly 2 weeks at this property. The location was wonderful, only a 2-minute walk from our favorite beach. We each had a comfortable bed and the 9 of us were able to gather for meals at the large dining table. The 2 living rooms and large yard provided space for a variety of activities. The property manager was very responsive to our needs. We appreciated the amenities which included a barbecue grill, beach towels and chairs and toys, games, cable tv, etc. I highly recommend this beautiful property for family trips.

Great house in awesome location

We were 2 families (4 adults, 3 kids) and enjoyed our stay in Napili. There were lots of great features, like beach towels, the washing line for hanging out wet towels and swimsuits, pool noodles, one big kitchen that we used for cooking with spices, ketchup etc, and a separate kitchen that you could use for drinks. There was plenty of space, and it was great to all be able to stay together in one house. The only negative was the roosters, who do start up pretty early, but some people in our group found it harder to sleep through than others. Napili Bay is right across the road and was great for swimming, and also riding the waves up the beach and back down again (not sure if this always happens or was just when we were there), and Kapalua was a short walk. We also took short drives to D.T Fleming Beach Park and Honolua Bay.

Amazing stay in Kapalua

Would recommend for any larger group travelling to Maui. The house is huge with lots of living space, very clean and comfortable. Only slight downside, the roosters can be a bit loud at weird times, we were adjusted to it pretty quick but I would bring earplugs just incase.

Great spot for big group

We had a group of 9 people stay here and it was great! Plenty of room for everyone, and very close to great beaches in Napili and Kapalua. The listing is accurate and the host is easy to work with. We recommend the a/c units for every bedroom as it can get warm. The a/c units also help drown out the noise of the roosters when you sleep.

Napili Bay Home

We stayed at this home for almost two weeks and enjoyed every minute. The home is well equipped and very comfortable for a family group. It is so close to the beach and we went to the beach almost every day we were there. I loved having the 4 bathroom and that the four bedrooms were on each corner of the home so we all had our own space. Colleen helped us with everything we needed promptly and efficiently. This was supposed to be our one trip of a lifetime to Hawaii, but our adult children are already talking about coming back next year. Thank you for an amazing trip. Kathleen Clapp

Ideal location and space for our family of 7

We were delighted with the spaciousness of the house, particularly the 4 bathrooms with 4 bedrooms. We spent alot of time walking across the street through the Napili Kai Resort to the Napili Bay as well as Kapalua Bay for snorkeling and swimming. The 2 washers and dryers helped us stay ahead of wet towels and laundry. We also loved the 2 refrigerators - one for food and one for beverages. We would definitely stay here again. Mahalo!

Christmas Family Vacation

We had an amazing three week family Christmas vacation in Napili. This house accommodated the 10 of us perfectly. We loved being across the street from the beautiful Napili Bay. Colleen was very responsive to all of our needs. Our only advice would be, bring earplugs for the many roosters that begin waking you at 3:30am sharp, however, welcome to Hawaii no matter where you stay. Would recommend this property and can’t wait to return!!

Amazing for groups!

This was an incredible place to stay for our group of 10! The house has so much space to make dinner, chill, and enjoy the weather. The rooms were spacious although the folks who slept on the day bed in the entry were a bit less comfortable. The tree and tree swing were a hit! Perfect walking distance to the beach too! Doesn’t get much better than that. The only problem was that we couldn’t find any cleaning supplies - no wipes or spray which made it hard to leave the place tidy and feel comfortable post pandemic but that seems like an easy fix!

Definitely not what we expected

Just left this property about 2 days ago. I had a group of 7 stayed with us for our wedding at Kapalua. CONS: The furniture is outdated, and floors were dirty still had sand on the floors from the previous renters, the washer/dryer inside the kitchen does not work,NO AC and it was extremely hot even with all the fans on. We all had what seems to be bites from bed bugs and now have to rewash and disinfect everything back at home. We had to stay out in the yard until late at night so we can be in the fresh air as the house was super hot. I had to purchase lights to put outside because its very dark and needed to stay cool. It is my understanding that the neighbors are related to the owners so beware that they are watching everything you do on “your vacation “ And while i love nature and dont mind roosters in Hawaii, the neighbors have wayyyy to many to the point you cant sleep. Also- i was not aware but they expect you to do their linen laundry before you leave and leave a house clean when they charge you a hefty cleaning fee upfront. PROS: Location was great for us since we got married at Kapalua beach, nice yard space and beautiful tree outside, which we spent as much time as possible outside to stay cool.

Fabulous Spacious/Comfy Island Home - Perfect Location!

Our group of 6 adult swimmer ladies, had a lovely stay at Napili Hale. Roomy, clean, comfortable and in a great locale. Would go back again with a group without a doubt! We especially appreciated having the bathrooms in/or next to each room. Solid-wood elegant furniture, very comfortable. Well equipped kitchen. Great yard. Loved the two outdoor showers, two kitchens, two sets of washer dryers, and four bathrooms make it an ideal place for two families to share. Convenient Beach access and opportunity to meet friendly vacationers are a plus. Very well situatedright across from Napili bay and several good restaurants. Also close to many walking/hiking trails. Being nature lovers, we humored ourselves listening to the many roosters in the neighborhood.

About the host

Why they chose this property

The uniqueness of the house and property comes with its location and history. This residential neighborhood was once considered a very remote area of Maui where a handful of Hawaiian fishing families lived. In more recent historic times it was surrounded by a multitude of orchards that Honolua Ranch manager David T. Fleming planted in an effort to diversify Ranching operations. The historic Honolua Ranch headquarters were located up Office Road, by the Ritz Carlton Hotel. The Seahouse restaurant across the street at the Napili Kai Resort, was originally the Managers Club for the Honolua Ranch at a time when there where no hotels along Napili Bay. During that time, my great Aunt Lahela lived in a house right where the Napili house is today. There were few other homes around. The few that were nearby were other Hawaiian families and the Ranch managers. There were plantation camps located along what is now Office Road, where the Ritz Carlton is. The plantation camps were generally grouped ethnically, with individuals and families of Hawaiians, Chinese, and Japanese ancestry living in separate 'camps'. Those who lived at these camps were employees of Honolua Ranch and then D.T. Fleming's plantation/orchards. Napili became a vacation destination in the 1960's and most the condo's and hotels you see here today were built around that time. The Napili house property and the pocket of residential homes immediately surrounding it are some of the last vestiges of the Hawaiian community that were present prior to the Honolua Ranch era and prior to the areas transformation into a vacation destination. It is really a special place for me as generations of my family have lived here.

What makes this property unique

Travelers booking the Napili house will enjoy a large home, with double amenities for large groups; two outdoor showers, two washers and two dryers! Plenty of space and privacy and at an affordable price! Additionally, the experience of everyday kama'aina living is pretty nice, at least we think so!
