Spectacular OCEANFRONT! 2BR/2BA Papakea L-305. June 14 - 18th 250/nt
Why settle for ocean view when you can have OCEANFRONT! You could throw a coconut to the water from our deck. THE RAINBOW AND SUNSET PICTURE WERE TAKEN FROM OUR LANAI. Papakea L-305 is as close as you can get to the ocean and offers easy access to world famous Kaanapali Beach for long walks in the sand. Watch the world go by from the lanai with the privacy of being on the 3rd floor.
Watch the whales (Nov - April) from your deck while you drink your morning coffee or with evening cocktails as you watch the sunset.
Let the waves lull you to sleep. The master suite and living room have breathtaking views looking across the channel to the islands of Lanai and Molokai. We are one of the few units with both ocean front views in the living area and master bedroom. Most of the units have all the bedrooms to the back of the condo.
Air-conditioning unit in both bedrooms and the living area.
Fully remodeled. Sliding glass doors that open from the center bringing more of the view in.
New tiles floors throughout.
Newly remodeled kitchen with granite counter tops, natural cherry cabinets, stainless steel appliances. Fully appointed making cooking and eating in a breeze.
Newly remodeled bathrooms. Master bath is an en-suite with a new walk in shower.
Second bathroom also has a newly remodeled walk in shower.
The Papakea Oceanfront Resort is a tropical oasis of 13 acres of manicured grounds. It has the largest amount of land of any condominium resort on Maui's Kaanapali beach, the only resort with two oceanfront pools, two spas, two 12 hole putting greens. Grounds also include three lighted tennis courts, two shuffleboards, two beach cabanas, tranquil koi ponds, lush gardens and 12 outdoor barbecues.
This is one of the best locations on Maui! From your lanai, enjoy ever-changing ocean views of beautiful sunsets, rainbows, dolphins, turtles, seals, whales(Nov.-April), surfers and boats. You will be footsteps away from great swimming, snorkeling, sunbathing and relaxation.
This 3rd floor unit, in the desired 'L 'building, is an oceanfront unit with central air and ceiling fans throughout. Kitchen is fully equipped. The bathrooms are complete with new cabinets, granite counter tops and walk in showers. Of the waterfront buildings, the 'L' building has the closest parking to the building and an elevator. It is also the closest to the year round beach next door as the beach in front of us comes and goes with the tides.
This 2 bedroom IS NOT A LOFT! This condo has two very private bedrooms and A/C throughout or ceiling fans to catch the ocean breezes.
The condo sleeps four to six with a California king bed in the master bedroom. Fall asleep to the sound of the waves. All rooms are on the same level. If you tire of the view, there are two flat screen TV in the living room and a small TV master bedroom.
Two twin beds in the second bedroom can be turned into a king bed upon request.
The living room sofa is a queen size sleeper sofa.
There is a washer/dryer in unit.
This unit is equipped with golf putters, tennis rackets, various snorkel equipment, beach toys, collapsible cooler and beach chairs.

The condo provided everything we wanted and needed. The view was spectacular, and the lanai furniture was perfect for viewing sitting and relaxing. Rachel was a very prompt and accommodating host throughout the entire rental process. We had stayed at Papakea on one other occasion, and we really like the location and pools and grounds very much. We would certainly stay with Rachel again!Gene & Sue Krismanits
Right from the start, our host Rachelle was incredibly informative and helpful, providing information that proved invaluable for our stay. The complex is absolutely stunning and just minutes from some of the island’s most beautiful beaches.We could literally watch turtles swimming in the sea right from the window, and the sound of the ocean lulled us to sleep every night. The kitchen was very well-equipped with everything we needed, and we loved that there were outdoor BBQs available (spotlessly clean, just like the rest of the property).The beds were extremely comfortable, the apartment was spotless, and honestly we felt completely at home. We genuinely can’t think of a single thing we would change.Thank you, Rachelle, for a truly memorable stay!
This place is in a perfect location. The TVs need some updating but overall the place was great! We definitely would come back and stay again. The owner is very responsive to any questions while staying there.
This is the perfect place to stay! The view from the unit is incredible, waking up to whales swimming in the distance and the sounds of the ocean was so amazing. Close to everything you need and want to do in the area, I will definitely be staying here again. The host is very responsive and kind. This could not have been a better stay!
We loved our stay in Maui and would definitely stay in this condo again! It was amazing! The view was incredible, the two bedrooms were great, and it was stocked with everything we needed for a great week!
Our stay at Papakea L305 was perfect for us. The condo is located right on the ocean where we enjoyed our morning coffee while watching the whales. It had all the amenities we needed to cook and grill. It has two true bedrooms instead of one bedroom and a loft like others that we have stayed in at Papakea. Thanks for the allowing us to use your home away from home for a few days.
Location: walking distance to grocery and abc store, and food trucks.
We had a great time with our children and grandson . Amazing ocean views from lanai and master bedroom. Great condo with lots of amenities, beach chairs, umbrella and snorkeling gears are a big plus.
By far our best experience at Papakea! This property, specifically this unit was absolutely perfect. Property was clean and just as advertised. The views were perfect and we could not have asked for a better place to stay!
The Papakea never lets us down. Grounds and pools are wonderful! Great place for families with nice beach just steps away. Our oceanfront unit was very nice and the closet well stocked with beach toys and chairs etc. a little maintenance on the slatted glass louver windows to make them open and close fully would be helpful! Otherwise a very nicely remodeled unit overall and the lanai oceanfront is amazing! We had a great time and would definitely come back!!
So glad we stayed here! This is a great unit in a great complex offered by a great host. The condo is located on the west side of Maui right next to Kaanapali beach. As in the description, the kitchen and bathroom have been nicely updated. We are a family of four and the condo provided plenty of space for us all. Communication with the host was great in answering all our questions and accommodating us by converting the twin beds into a king. We so enjoyed listening to the ocean and watching the whales in the morning with our coffee. This place will be recommended to any of our family and friends going to Hawaii.
Overall, a great location. The pictures represent the space well. It was quiet and clean. Close enough to walk to breakfast or coffee in the morning. No real beachfront, but that was made clear in the property description. The TVs were definitely on the small side and we never got them to work, but we were too busy exploring the area to really care. I highly recommend, it was a great location for my husband and my two elementary school age children and I.
This condo was everything I hoped it would be. The views amazing looking out over the ocean, every night we enjoyed the gorgeous sunsets from the lanai and during the day the whales were happily playing! And the sounds of the ocean were the only music we needed! We appreciated the beach chairs, beach towels and other beach toys. Papakea Resort is walking distance to shopping, the beach walk, beaches and plenty of restaurants. A quick drive to Whaler’s for more shopping and good restaurants. The grounds are well maintained, and there are barbecues available.
We look forward to our next trip to Maui and stay in this wonderful condo.
We loved sitting on the lanai and watching the whales. We usually stay at a more secluded area of the island so we really enjoyed being able to walk to some cafes and coffee shops. The food truck park was a big hit for our group too. One note - my personal experience is that rentals on VRBO often don't come with as many amenities. This one had a large number of bathrooom towels which was an unexpected bonus - but you'll need paper towels and trash bags, dishwasher detergent, etc. (There will be enough for your first day or two)This isn't uncommon in other Maui rentals - but it's nice to know ahead of time. Plus, don't expect any type of shampoo/bodywash.
From the beautiful lanai you can look out in the distance and see whales spouting, and from time to time leaping out of the water. (next time I'll make sure I bring my binoculars for even better viewing).Loved the closeness to other resort areas to the south by using the boardwalk starting at the Papakea property. Yes, a bit of a dodge around two properties that don't connect, but once we learned the route it was easy-peasy. Could walk to Duke's restaurant at Honu Kai in just 12 minutes, and then continue on all the way to near Black Rock Point for a nice 5 mile round trip walk.Plenty of close by places to eat, Times Market just a 5 minute walk, plus other shops. An ABC market is even closer through a back-gate on the property which is great.Papi's cinnamon rolls is a real gem.... but you better be in line 20 minutes before they open at 7am, or you may have a long hour wait to enjoy them. Will be looking forward to our next visit even more now that we've scoped out the area and how to get around.Mahalo nui loa
The beach front property was in great shape great view. The pool was phenomenal..My only concern was could not use one of the TVs because everything is old school type set upI would definitely recommend this to anybody I knew and will recommend to people we know
Amazing stay! The condo was clean, spacious, and right on the ocean. We loved waking up to the sound of the waves and having coffee with stunning views from the porch. Fully stocked with everything we needed and in a great location close to Lahaina, restaurants, and snorkeling. The property is beautiful, the pools and grounds are well kept, and having no resort fees was a huge plus. Internet is fast too. We can’t wait to come back!
Amazing spot! Highly recommend staying here. The condo could definitely use a refresh of upholstery, & new lamps (they’re literally falling apart). Aside from that it’s a beautiful spot and I hope to stay again!!
