The front desk receptionist was very friendly and helpful. The bed was very comfortable and view from our lanai was fantastic. Would definitely stay here again!!
Excellent location- check in and unit was exactly as described! Bed was super comfortable- lots of extras and very clean! Looking forward to staying again! 5⭐️
Very clean and cozy. Beautiful view, includes a black sand beach behind the property. The loft provided a comfy second bed. Filtered water and a fridge. The best way to see Hana and arrive at Haleakala National Park early, fresh for the Pipiwai Trail and to avoid the crowds.
The sunrise view from our condo was spectacular! The condo was very comfortable for our overnight stay. We were surprised that there was no air conditioning or elevator. Overall it was lovely.
The description of the property was accurate. Things we really enjoyed included waking to the ocean sunrise, the koi pond, the sound of the pebble beach, and the little host touches like a cold water pitcher in the fridge & a wash cloth dedicated to beach things like sand & mud. The manager & staff were on-site during the day; we found them kind & helpful. The only minor drawback we found was the many slatted doors & transoms - good for ventilation, but not so much for privacy.
Came to Maui wanting to do the drive to Hana. After reading multiple sources we decided to make it a 2 day excursion requiring an overnight stay in Hana. Hana Kai was easy to find, had adequate parking, was close to The Ranch Restaurant and both food truck locations, and Rm 202 was very nice. Clean. View from the hill above the water is the view we came to Maui for. The mattress was excellent. Water pressure was good. There is no AC, but being on the windward side of the island you don't need it with the slider open. Whereas all accommodations in Hana are pricey, this was the most affordable.

Beautiful but Uncomfortable
The property and location is as advertised; both well maintained and beautiful scenery. However, we underestimated having no A/C. Even with fans blowing full speed and balcony open to the ocean, we found little relief from the hot and humid climate. We sweat just hanging out in the condo at night and even took cold showers but did not sleep comfortably. So much that we ate the $$ and booked somewhere else after the first night of our reservation. This was beginning of September.
We loved the fresh breezes coming from the ocean, both during the day and while we slept. The condo was extremely comfortable and in an ideal location. It was very luxurious to sit on the balcony and admire the exceptional view. Things to keep in mind are that cell service may be unavailable until you reach the town (as stated in the information) and the bandwidth doesn't support streaming. Leaving the screen doors to the balcony open allows noise from other guests to be heard. At 10:00 one evening (when quiet time is listed as starting), I called out to the folks next door that it would be nice if they moved the party inside, which they promptly did.
The staff was exceptionally helpful and we enjoyed our stay at this beautiful condo.

The condo was lovely and exactly as pictured. The sounds from the ocean were so soothing, and Hana was a perfect way to start our trip to Maui. Plan ahead and buy your groceries, stock up on gas, etc., near the airport or wherever else you’re traveling from. Prices skew higher in the Hana area, so we were happy we had everything we needed with us. The road to Hana is not for the faint of heart, especially the Southern road. Definitely take the road most traveled to Hana, and consider a utility vehicle. We had a Camaro, which was not ideal for the driving conditions, but we’ll have stories to tell for years to come. We made a reservation at the Hana Ranch Restaurant (within walking distance) and were not disappointed. Overall we had a great stay and are happy this is how we decided to start our Maui adventure.
The property location is very serene. I woke to early morning sunrise colors which we could see from our bed. In the morning walk along the water was so peaceful. The room has beautiful water views. I will come back to stay here.
We had two couple stay at this location; unit 202 and 205. My husband and I stayed in unit 205, so that us what I am writing to. It was a comfortable, clean, and convenient place to stay overnight after our back road to Hana trek. We finished the top side the next day. Much enjoyed the view from the balcony and listening to the waves during the night. We picked up some snack and drinks at a small local grocery and had a very relaxing stay.
This is a great property in Hana, which is a small, locals-only type of town with very few places with privacy or beach/ocean views. The balcony view of Hana Bay is easily the best feature here. Expect to hear some of your neighbors on their balconies, but it’s hardly a nuisance. Everyone was respectful and quiet hours were honored by guests. This is life on Hana! Also, we kept the balcony doors open at night and listened to the waves and never felt hot or uncomfortable sleeping … in supposedly humid August! The location is central to all beaches, the national park, and walkable to food trucks. If you’re staying in Hana, this is the place!

Nice view. Very good unit. A little too noisy. We enjoyed our stay.
My husband and I stayed 2 nights here as part of our belated honeymoon. We had a wonderful experience. Our view of the ocean was fantastic. We loved watching the sunrise in the mornings and listening to the waves at night. Although there was no AC, we were comfortable at night sleeping with 2 fans (we brought one down from the loft) and the ocean breeze. Very clean. Quiet. We highly recommend staying over in Hana. It was wonderful to have the time to experience Hana and go to the national park. Highly recommend this place!
Communication and check in process was very well done. Pictures of room on VRBO were absolutely what we saw. The experience could not have been better! Mahalo!

The view of Hana bay and the black stone beach form our apartment was magical. The rooms are open spacious and designed to make the most of this view. Hana is a small town and does not have many facilities in terms of shops and restaurants (Thai food trucks mostly)! Would advise to bring food and the kitchen at Hana Kai was well equipped to cook.
Property was convenient and easy to access after driving the Road to Hana. I am so glad we stayed to explore Hana. There are dining options and a general store nearby. There is access to beautiful beaches nearby.
