A perfect place to relax and unwind, this ocean front condo complex has a glimpse of a view of the ocean from the very private lanai. With tropical garden views in every direction and the sound of the waves in the background, relax and enjoy. The condo’s large lanai has a very private feel but is still open to the beautiful, lush gardens of the complex. A few dozen steps to the left and you are oceanside at the seawall. This oceanfront gathering place is a wonderful, warm spot to visit and watch the whales and sunsets.

The Maui Sands complex is the very last resort from which you can walk on the beach for miles, all the way down to Black Rock in Kāʻanapali. Steps into the ocean make it easy to swim and snorkel in the reefs right out front. Soft sandy beach right out front when the tide is low. Since we are at the end of a 3-mile-long stretch of beach, our shoreline changes depending on currents and storm systems far away. Typically, during the summer months, the ocean currents move the sand north towards our property and our beach grows. This is due to the increased tropical activity south of the islands. During the winter months the Alaskan storm systems push the current and the sand south towards Kāʻanapali and our beach comes and goes. During those months, the ocean entrance is rocky, though sandy beaches are within walking distance (1 block north or 2 blocks south) and others a short drive away.

Beyond the Kahekilli Marine Reserve that fronts the resort is the Hawaiian Humpback Whale Sanctuary with the densest concentration of humpbacks in all of the Hawaiian Islands. If your stay is in the winter, between mid-November to mid-April you may see humpback whales teaching their newborns to swim. Spinner dolphins, sea turtles, eagle rays, and endangered Hawaiian monk seals can be spotted year-round. Out front, the double volcanic reefs break the waves into bathtub calmness during low tides making it one of the best spots in Maui for toddlers to play in safety. Year round you can surf, kayak, snorkel, and swim right at Maui Sands.

Maui Sands is located at the border of North Kāʻanapali Beach and Honokōwai areas of the island. We are right on the ocean in west Maui, a few minutes north of Kāʻanapali and just south of the Kapalua area. The resorts next to Maui Sands are the Papakea Resort and Paki Maui.

Perfect Family Spot

We travelled here with our 4 kids ages 2-9 and it was great. My husband and I rarely see eye to eye on a place being a good size and niceness (generally his standards are much higher than mine.) We walked in the door and the first thing he said was "this is nice." It was a perfect location by beaches, great food options, and the other people staying in the complex were very nice and friendly. Overall the experience was great. We will definitely be back.

Quiet and relaxing

This smaller sized complex is very quiet and relaxing yet within driving distance to everything the island has to offer. Home-style rooms stocked with beach towels, a cooler, and many extras. Just a few steps away from the pool and awesome ocean views. We appreciated the dedicated parking spot. A short walk to shopping for necessities. Sandy beaches nearby. Great communication with owners.

Great Unit in Kaanapali

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here in West Maui for 11 nights mid Jan 23’. The unit is clean and well stocked so made cooking a breeze. Was hot all week so the pool, which was clean and tidy came in handy in the late afternoon after excursions. Great spot as a home base to get to nearby surf spots and other beaches.

We loved staying in this condo! The ocean and pool are both only a few feet away from the back door. Great neighborhood with restaurants and stores close by. We saw whales every morning from the condo overlook. The only concern was that we could hear the people above us everytime they walked. Other than that, the condo was perfect and we would stay here again.

I traveled with my husband and 85 year old Mother. We couldn't have picked a better condo Everything was so close to the unit The ocean was a under a minute and the pool was 30 seconds away The grounds very lovely and we especially loved having a patio where we could enjoy mornings and evenings The condo was very well equiped with everything you could think of The beds were so comfortable and the bathrooms were nice and updated. The condo was very close to some of the best beaches in Maui with free parking. We will definitely be back. Thankyou for sharing your lovely condo

About the host

Hosted by Kristina Acri

Host profile image
We love the outdoors and especially the beaches in Maui. We can't imagine anything better than starting our day on the lanai with coffee, snorkling with turtles and wrapping up the day grilling fresh fish for dinner. We find that Maui offers us the perfect balance of an active, relaxing, restorative vacation.

Why they chose this property

We love Hawai'i and Maui is our favorite island. Maui Sands is a slice of paradise with an old Hawaiian feel. The neighborhood has everything you will need and is within a short drive of excellent snorkling, great shopping and wonderful golf courses.

If you're looking for a tropical get-away with all the amenities of home, this is it! We love the gardens, the gourmet kitchen, and the pool. The ocean is steps from our door and the wonders of the island are all within reach.

What makes this property unique

Our beautiful condo is located in the ocean-front Maui Sands complex. The feel of the property is warm and inviting, a welcoming family get away. Parks, groceries, restaurants and shopping are all within walking distance. Unlike many other oceanfront condos in Maui, we no longer have light pollution at night. Enjoy the stars and sounds of the ocean as the night embraces you.

Maui Sands Seaside is centrally located between Kaanapali and Kapalua, where you can experience the world-class beaches and golf courses. We are also within minutes of a variety of restaurants, shopping and grocery stores. The local Fish market and Farmers market are extremely popular for both locals and visitors. The farmer's market provides fresh local fruit, vegetables, and organic foods; while the Fish market provides a fresh fish counter or you can take advantage of their delicious take-out menu. They do have some tables out in front, but seating is limited.

There's so much more to this place! Come visit and see!
