Wonderful stay!

We stayed at the Westin Nanea for a week and then stayed three days at Papakea Resort. All 5 of us preferred the laid back atmosphere at Papakea and the fact that it was so much smaller. Absolutely beautiful grounds and we loved sitting on the chairs at the edge of the ocean with no sand!!

All went well

There was a tiny snafu on check in (things happen) yet the staff at the property and the cleaners worked to take care of things quickly while we went out to grab a bite to eat. We appreciated there help. The unit itself was well appointed with all that we needed. Air conditioning worked while it was not needed much. Location makes it very easy to walk to lots of food as well as the water. We enjoyed coffee on the balcony in the morning while the teens slept in. Lots to explore very very close by. Plenty space inside and out to relax.

Second loft 'bedroom' lacking

There are several hidden fees in addition to the outrageous service and host fees. The second bedroom is obviously only intended for children's use as it is way less upkept or presentable.

Perfect for our family!

We are a family of 6 (with four boys ages 10 to 16) and we absolutely loved this place. It was perfect for our first trip to Maui. The view from the lanai, the kitchen, the sleeping arrangements, the location...everything was just what we needed. Having all the equipment (snorkel, golf, boogie boards, umbrellas) was incredibly helpful as well. The boys spent so much time playing mini golf and swimming. And the beach was a 2 min walk. Highly recommend!!

Very nice property with beautiful views

The apartment has everything one needs. It was clean and well equipped. The view from the fourth floor is outstanding. The complex is well maintained. We didn’t have a reason to contact property manager. Everything was in place. We had a tiny issue with ants but I would assume this is common. We lost quite a bit of food because of them. The only safe place in the kitchen was the fridge. We did not cook but the place has everything for one to do so. I would gladly stay there again.

Great location and activities

Great view. We saw humpback whales going by twice. To sleep 6 my husband and I shared the loft (2 single beds) and our grandauhter slept on the pullout couch in the living room. Nice to have 2 bathrooms, but the loft bathroom was a bit grungy. This place was very well equipped with beach toys and kitchen ware. We used the Boogie boards and snorkel gear a lot. 10 minute walk to Kaanapali and 10 minute drive to Napili. We loved both beaches.

College spring break and moms birthday

A quick family getaway. Booked last minute. We loved the condo! Great location! Pools and hot tub were great! Food trucks near by were great. Owners were awesome and communicated quickly! So very happy with our stay! So many toys available for use. We used the snorkel gear and beach chairs. A family on the beach gave us a boogie board, so now there is an additional boogie board in the closet!

Postcard views

Spent 4 wonderful nights at Papakea resort in this unit. Views from the lanai were picture postcard perfect. Lots of whale sightings as well as rarer spinner dolphins. Had putting competitions, played pickle ball and took advantage of the lounges around the pool and at ocean front. Walking distance to wonderful restaurants and groceries.

Loved it!

The location is excellent, the people are kind and helpful, the property has excellent facilities including tennis, large putting green, shuffleboard, beautiful grills and a pool-side shelter for meals outside. The hot tubs are the perfect temp, the view is gorgeous. Easy walk to the farmers market and great pizza restaurant and coffee shop. Room was plenty big for the 5 of us. When we return to Maui, we plan to stay here again.

Reminds me of a Grand Cruise ship just before it goes in for a retrofit for major maintenance.

Not as promised. Lots of non-functional equipment including AC system. Lights out, missing lampshades, bent pans, had to fix range hood, mold growing in shower on ceiling. Etc. Property manager was good to work with, but it took a few days and the place was stifling. Especially top bedroom. Owner promised a refund of deposit for cleaning, but that has not shown up yet two weeks after being promised. Many issues were due to prior renters NOT cleaning or notifying property manager about issues. The place could use a good rework and thorough cleaning. AC needs to be fixed and the listed AC for bedroom needs to be installed. The temporary provided was up on two stacked drawers so it could vent. It worked and that was good, just now what a permanent solution should be. Owner appears to be a reasonable person who is trying, but dealing long distance. This can be a very nice place after it is reworked and issues fixed. View of ocean is nice, most of the view of the West Maui mountains is really the roof of the adjacent building. Grounds are well kept. Note that you need to put time on a timer every 6 hours for the AC or it shuts off.

Great walkable location.

This was my first time booking a VRBO and I was quite pleased with the overall experience. This location is close to the beach. We were lucky to see turtles swimming by. This location is also close to a huge food trucks station with many options for dinner. We walked their for dinner a couple of the nights. We also walked to Dukes for dinner and live music. There is also a shopping center right across the street with a grocery store. Property was very spacious and greatly accommodated our family of 4. The only minor complaint that I have would be that the living room AC didn’t quite cool the downstairs bedroom even with the bdrm door open. It wasn’t really a big deal because we slept with the fan on, but want to mention for future guest. Would definitely book again.
