About this property

Aloha!

Welcome to Hale Mahina Beach Resort , your Maui home away from home.
Located between Lahaina and Kapalua, it is a short drive to many wonderful Hawaiian experiences. Beachside dining, sunset cruises, snorkeling excursions, hula shows, and championship golf courses, just to name a few. If you don't feel like driving, our Maui public bus, which provides service to the most popular areas of the island, stops 100m from the resort.
If you feel like island hopping, there is a small comuter airport a short distance away.

Set amongst palm trees and hibiscus flowers, this oceanfront resort boasts not only lush landscaping, but it's own private beach! Please not that seasonally, the beach may be inaccessible due to strong currents removing sand.

Take a dip in the pool, soak in the jacuzzi or simply relax on the lounge chairs provided for your convenience on our oceanfront lawn. The BBQ area, complete with tables and benches, is a perfect spot to watch the sunset while cooking dinner or meeting other guests.
From our beach, you can enjoy swimming or snorkeling with the many fish and turtles that inhabit our reef. There is even a company that will deliver stand up paddle boards to your door!
Please note: occasionally, during summer months, storms can “carry” some sand away temporarily.

From our spacious, private lanai, enjoy the famous West Maui sunsets where you have unobstructed views of our neighboring islands. During the winter months, you will be entertained by the frequent humpback whale shows. Fall asleep to the rustle of the palm trees and the sound of the waves gently lapping on the beach below.

Other features of the condo include queen sleeper sofa, fully equiped kitchen with dishwasher, newly remodeled bathroom with custom walk-in shower, queen size bed with quality linens. For your entertainment, there is a large HDTV, DVD player, Iand free WiFi.
In addition to the lanai table, there is a dining table for four for further dining options.

First Maui Visit

This property is awesome! Unit was clean, comfortable, and well stocked. The complex is only two buildings, which helps limit the number of people around. Not having AC was not an issue. Host responded promptly to questions and was very easy to work with. We watched whales and turtles from our lanai each day we were there. The view of the ocean from the lanai cannot be beat. You are very close to the ocean. The sand area of the beach is smaller but adequate. There is plenty of lawn space and beach chairs for everyone.

Beach escape

We used the condo as our base for exploring Maui. We very much enjoyed our stay. Our highlight was returning each evening to watch the sunset over the ocean from the balcony. The accommodations matched the listing. We appreciated having a washer and dryer in the unit and all of the beach gear available. We found the beach at the condo to be good for a quick dip in the evening but we would not spend all day there. The vibe of the pool and beach area is more adults just hanging out and we felt more comfortable going to nearby beaches to let our three and two year old enjoy themselves. Overall, we were very satisfied with our stay and if we are lucky enough to return to Maui we would look this place up to try to stay here again.

Great beachfront property

The best part about the property are the amazing views of the beach and sunsets. Turtles come all the time and just lie on the beach. It’s a small private beach which is great as well. The unit does not have air conditioning but that didn’t bother us at all, the unit has plenty of great air circulation and the weather is great all year round. The unit was very clean wen well stocked. The beach can be a little rocky inside the water so keep that in mind but has some grear fish for snorkelling. Watched people head out a bit further and conveniently surf as well. Would definitely stay again. Communication and access to the property was extremely smooth as well.

Beautiful Maui condo

We loved this condo - the view and whale/dolphin/turtle watching were amazing! The condo has everything you need and we loved being so close to the water. We used the sofa bed and it was very comfortable. Every afternoon two or three turtles came up to rest on the beach and weren't bothered at all by the people, who fortunately kept their distance. It's a very pretty, small property with a very nice pool and hot tub. There were plenty of lounge chairs to sit on the lawn right next to the beach. It's a nice swimming beach and the snorkeling is pretty good. You will usually see turtles and there's a fair amount of fish over by the rocks to the right of the beach. We snorkeled twice and it was kind of murky, even when the water appeared calm, but it was nice to be able to snorkel right off the beach - we weren't really expecting that. Snorkeling might be better in the summer. We found great snorkeling in nearby Napili Bay (right side), Wailea area in South Maui and Honolua Bay to the north. We also highly recommend PacWhale Eco Adventures for a whale watching trip - it was fantastic and the guides very knowledgeable. Communication was very easy with the condo owner and the other residents/guests were friendly. The hibiscus on the property are amazing - colors I've never seen anywhere else. Would definitely stay there again! Maui is more expensive than ever, but there are a few great happy hour places - both MonkeyPod locations (Whaler's Village and Wailea), Sea House restaurant at Napili Bay and Beach House Bar & Grill on the Sands of Kahana property. All are close to the condo except the Wailea MonkeyPod location.

Incredible view!!

We did like this property very much! The view from the lanai area was great & so loved hearing the sound of the ocean when we slept. All was good in kitchen except 1 fry pan(medium sized) had a bit of rust?/grease? on it. Towels were awesome for size and we found entry to place easy access for us! Elevator close @ hand good & quiet neighbors. The only issue we had was the stairs as both of fell even though we had treads on our flip flops. There was an instant light that alerted us to steps but this was our 1st time in a condo where we should have more diligent in where we were walking. Loved the drawers for storage! Didn't know bbq was charcoal only, maybe we didn't read that part of the guide book. We were glad to be in the area.

Lovely Stay

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay here. The location, the view from the balcony was all just amazing. Seeing the turtles and seals come up on the beach was very exciting to watch. We also were treated to a whale show from our balcony which was a real treat. If we go back to Maui, we would definitely love to stay here again.

Maui get away

We had beautiful views and loved our time on the lanai. The condo does not have a/c, but there are many fans that keep air circulating. It was nice to have access to the beach, however it did wash away part way through our stay due to strong tides. The turtles were fun to watch both in the water and on the beach! The condo is located within a short drive of many attractions. It was a great, relaxing get away!

Spectacular

This condo is absolutely amazing. The view is breathtaking (we saw so many turtles every day and the sunsets, oh my gosh). The little beach right in front it perfect. The pool/hot tub are right in front of the ocean so you don’t have to miss out on the views in their either. Don’t let the no ac scare you away, especially during the fall months. It was so breezy and I was rarely ever too warm, the sleeping with the fans made it super comfortable. Condo has everything you need for cooking and all other needs. Complex is very quiet and relaxing. Will be back again!

Great property!

This unit was perfect for us. It had all that we needed for our 10 day stay. It was clean and comfortable. The property/complex was well-maintained and everyone we met was very welcoming and friendly. It's important to know that the unit is not air-conditioned and it got very hot in the late afternoon between 4 and 6 pm; however, it cooled down for watching the sunset from the balcony. Also, the beach access is difficult when the ocean swells come from the south. We saw a full rainbow over the water one morning, several sea turtles in the afternoon, and even a monk seal playing in the surf one day. Overall, a great place to stay and we would definitely return.

Piece of Heaven in Maui!

This is what I remember as a kid! This place is a piece of heaven in Maui! This is one of the few places still like it in Maui. Amazing amazing amazing! Private beach, snorkeling right outside of property! We saw so many turtles and fish. The condo was amazing and some perks that the condo came with snorkeling and beach gear. You won’t regret this place! We loved our stay and planning on coming back next year. There I no ac but if you open the doors and windows the air blows right through. Overall amazing!

Amazing Location and View

We had a wonderful time at this condo. It was very clean and just as described. The view was absolutely amazing, and we were able to see several sea turtles right from our balcony. The pool and hot tub were not busy at all, which was nice coming from a crowded resort! There were always plenty of lounge chairs to lay out on as well. There was no AC (which we knew going into the trip) but there were plenty of fans to help keep the room cool at night. We were outside most days, so it wasn’t an issue for us. Would definitely recommend this property!

Stunning Sunsets

The condo is in a beautiful location with panoramic views and stunning sunsets. There is a sandy beach a few feet away with gentle waves perfect for snorkeling The Manager’s wife accosted us within 5 minutes of arrival regarding our “group”reservations. This was a family vacation for which we rented four condos. I’ve stayed at Hale Mahina several times with family and had no problems but this time we had children with us and the manager targeted his reprimands on them if they laughed too loudly in the pool or played catch with a nerf football in the grass area. The condo was very nice and aptly supplied for our stay.

Take Me Back

This was our favorite! We stayed in 3 Vrbo’s on Maui and while they were all exceptional, this one took the win. Nice grassy lounge area, small beach away from the crowds, lots of turtles, central location to various beaches for our morning snorkeling trips. Washer/dryer in unit. AC would be nice but you will get a good cross breeze with both doors open and there is a ceiling fan and portable cooling fan in the bedroom. Can’t wait to revisit during whale season.

Wowee Maui!

We were very pleased with our stay in Honokowai. Loved dining with ocean views, convenient to beaches and shopping, close to but not in the midst of the hustle-bustle of Lahaina.

Beautiful Maui Vacation

We had a lovely stay in Maui and Rebecca was an amazing hostess. We enjoyed waking up everyday and taking in the gorgeous ocean views from the lanai. The unit was well equipped and spacious enough for my husband and I. It did get rather warm later in the day with the sun coming in from the West and no air conditioning. The bathroom has no airflow and there’s a bit of road noise in the bedroom with the windows open. These were minor inconveniences however and we definitely enjoyed our trip. For others planning activities, hiking at Haleakalā State Park and sunset at the summit was our favorite. Getting reservations for sunrise was too difficult and we wanted to pick a good day for the weather. We also enjoyed hiking the Pipiwai trail on the Road to Hana, although we found parking to be problematic at many of the scenic sites along the drive. We used the Gypsy app which was helpful for navigation. Keep in mind, reservations are also required well in advance at Waianapanapa State Park for the black beach which we missed. Kimo’s and Lahaina Pizza Co we’re our favorite restaurants. We also enjoyed strolling Banyan Tree Park and Front Street with all the various shops.

I currently live 5 minutes away, and am available if you should need assistance.

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with this apartment the minute I walked in the door and saw the amazing blue color of the ocean and the heard sound of the waves lapping on the shores below.
