I take personal pride in keeping my home clean and well maintained. As it is also my home away from home, I update and replace things regularly. I believe in supporting local businesses and local people. All upgrades to my home are purchased at local non-chain businesses whenever possible. My cleaning and maintenance team are local independent owner operated businesses and I have met with the owners personally.
F-308 is one of 2 similarly appointed homes. Check out my other: E-205 (VRBO listing)
This ocean view home is located on 13 acres of green, lush, manicured grounds with a thoroughly Hawaiian atmosphere. The only resort with two ocean front pools, two spas and two 12 hole putting greens. There are lighted tennis courts and two ocean side shuffle board courts. Relax in two beach cabanas, visit the koi ponds and BBQ on any one of the 12 gas BBQ grills. Yoga classes and weekly Mai Tai parties too!
Papakea is conveniently located between the Kaanapali and Kapalua world class golf resorts, just minutes away from shops, restaurants and galleries in nearby Lahaina and Whaler’s Village. You are just a short walk to famous Kaanapali Beach and the boardwalk which stretches all the way south to Black Rock and beyond. You are steps from a terrific snorkeling reef, where you can swim with the gorgeous fish and sea turtles. You are within walking distance of casual dining, a coffee shop, farmer’s market, grocery and convenience stores.
F-308 is one of two similarly appointed homes at Papakea. Check out the other E-205 listing. Be sure to check out the reviews... My mission is to put our guest and the center of everything I do.
The fine print (LOL):
Full contact information is required for all adults 18 and over staying in our home within 48 hours of booking. Name, physical address, cell # and email address.
I do not have a rental 'contract' nor require a security deposit. I ask only one thing: Please treat my home with love. It’s not a hotel. It is my home away from home. Pretend I are staying in your home as guests while you are staying in our home. The feeling you get when you walk back into your home after we leave is the same feeling I want when I walk into my home after you have left:)
Property is going through a sink hole repair and sea wall renovation program, which is anticipated to begin March or April 2026. Project is in contract phase and no firm dates have been set. Please contact the host for more information and timeline.

This is an absolutely awesome condo! The location is great, the kitchen was equipped with everything that was needed to cook our own meals. The view was amazing, especially during whale season. We will be back
Will definitely book again the next time we are fortunate enough to visit Maui. Good communication from the Sondra from the moment we booked until we arrived. Unit had amazing views, was very clean and had many features to make us feel at home. Location was great and within walking distance of stores and several restaurant options.
Sondra’s condo is just perfect in every way. From the moment you walk in you know you are in paradise. The views -oh my!
And the other reviews are spot on. Sondra has thought of everything to make you feel at home.
We had the best vacation! Thank you, Sondra💕
The unit is about 30 feet from the water. We spotted whales while sitting on the lanai. Restaurants, grocery store and shops are easily walkable. Two pools and hot tubs, tennis courts, putting green. Unit itself is lovely and stocked with amenities. Communication with the owner is excellent! We plan to stay again.
Sondra’s place is beautiful, tasteful island decor, comfy bed and a fully stocked kitchen.
We had everything we needed for the beach and my granddaughter went snorkeling right in front of our apartment.
Sondra quickly responded to any questions I had, while there.
I am grateful to have visited Lahaina in the days before the devastating tragedy there, and I am deeply saddened by the loss of such a special spot.
We booked this trip in January and almost cancelled due to wanting to be respectful of the residents of Lahaina.
I’m so thankful we kept our reservation and got to experience this amazing place!!! The people here are so caring and friendly. The property is beautiful and we loved that it was right on the water. We even got to see a sea turtle swimming right from our balcony. The rainbows were big and so beautiful!!!
This condo had everything we needed. We only cooked dinner once, but Sondra had everything we needed including a large spice selection. The place is very clean, the bed is comfortable and we absolutely loved waking up to the sounds of the ocean!!! Her communication is quick and personable. We just can’t say enough good things. Coming home was difficult. We will definitely be back and are already planning another trip for 2025 with our kids.
Loved this spot🌸Everything couldn't have been better. From the great communication with Sondra to the immaculate unit, well stocked kitchen and fantastic views, even saw some whales🐳Can't wait to return🌸
Mahalo!
This property is perfect! Don’t hesitate to book or it will be gone! Everything was supplied and an ABC store was right close by! Gas too! Pool is great and grounds were beautiful! Book it and have a great time!
Wonderful overall experience. The location, amenities provided and comfort added to the overall experience. Having beach chairs and a cooler were /greatly appreciated. Definitely would recommend this property to others!
Was just like the pictures. Ocean is right there and really couldn’t get much close without being in it.
Place has everything needed. Clean and comfortable.
We enjoyed staying in F308. The view of the ocean from our balcony was amazing. It was a home away from home, very clean, updated kitchen with all the tools needed for cooking just like home. The owners were a pleasure to work with. Would definitely stay there again.
Pictures and description of condo are spot on! On the ocean to watch whales, monk seals, kayakers, boats, surfers and sunsets. Updated, Clean, Attractive decor throughout. All the amenities you will need and more,. Walking distance to restaurants, shopping, Kaanapali beach & boardwalk. Able to snorkel right in front of resort sea wall.

Oceanfront views, whales, has it all!
Great condo, equipped with all the little things you need and more, for an enjoyable Hawaii vacation. Highly recommend renting from Craig and Sondra - great owners who really care about their unit and about their guests having a great vacation. Stayed February 2019 and saw many many whales right from the lanai. The on-site grills are very nice and both a fish market and grocery mart very close to allow you to have fresh home-made meals. Liked the grassy areas for catching some sun, and the pools and hot tub are a great feature. The grounds are very well maintained. Nice staff. Will be back!!
The condo itself is perfect. Clean, new, comfortable furniture and bed, with the most stunning perma-view of Molokai. I can only imagine the whales you must see from the beachfront lanai. (WHEN we return here it will be in the winter to catch that!)
The property itself, Papakea, is our favorite in the area. Acres of green, well landscaped grounds, pools, putting greens and more. But even cooler is that you can walk across street to restaurants, supermarket, farmers market with hot food buffet, food trucks, boutiques. And it's super relaxed and inviting, compared to the high rise properties nearby that just seem cluttered and over-populated.
The view from the Lanai will lower your blood pressure
We had a fantastic week at Sondra and Craig's condo in Honokawai. The view from the lanai is directly on the water looking out over the channel to Molokai. Sunsets were beautiful! Sitting and watching the changing skies and amazing clouds while we had our coffee or ate dinner really enhanced the experience. The unit itself is very compact but well designed. The bedroom is in the back near the entrance and bathroom, allowing the ocean side of the unit to take full advantage of that great view. The kitchen is incredibly well equipped and organized, making cooking meals simple and fun. They had knives that actually cut!! We had plenty of room to spread out for 2 people. The beach chairs and thick beach towels were a nice addition. The dryer does take a little getting used to as things aren't completely dry when you take them out. The property itself was perfect for us. Efficient check-in and friendly front desk staff, easy parking, beautiful lush well maintained grounds and 2 fantastic pools and hot tubs. Each had a pool hut with very clean bathrooms and lots of seating and tables. Very family friendly but also fun for older couples. Just across the street from the property is a little shopping center with a great market (Time's Market) that had everything we needed to put together a great meal. There is also a snorkel Bob's in case you want to get gear for snorkeling and places to eat. This location is also a short drive to nice beaches and Lahaina. We had a great time! We'll be back! Thanks Sondra and Craig!
Sondra's condo is lovely. She was really thoughtful with everything she put into the place. From the Bose sound systems, bedding, beach accessories, all the way down to the cutlery.... we were very impressed by the quality of everything.
Would 100% stay with her again.
