Escape to Paradise – Oceanfront Comfort & Value at Papakea Resort, West Maui

Welcome to our fully remodeled, ocean-view condo at the renowned Papakea Resort, West Maui’s hidden gem. Located just a 2-minute stroll to North Kaanapali Beach, our north-facing unit offers unobstructed panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, putting greens, koi ponds, and swimming pool—all while staying cool and shaded throughout the day.

Why choose our Papakea condo over the others in West Maui?

10 Reasons Our Guests Keep Coming Back

1. Unmatched Value with 5-Star Hospitality
We offer competitive rates, especially for longer stays and repeat guests. You won’t find a better combination of location, amenities, and value. Just check our stellar guest reviews—you’ll see why many guests return year after year.

2. Incredible Views, All-Day Comfort
Stay cool on the lanai with natural shade from our north-facing exposure, plus enjoy gorgeous views of the ocean, koi ponds, and putting greens—without the intense afternoon sun. And yes, we have air conditioning and ceiling fans when you need them.

3. Hawaiian-Inspired Interior + Comfort of Home
Enjoy our California King bed, Hawaiian-themed living room with queen sofa bed, and cozy seating. Our fully equipped gourmet kitchen includes stainless steel pots and pans, slow cooker, blender, rice cooker, full-size fridge with ice maker, and even a washer and dryer.

4. Entertainment Options for Wind-Down Evenings
Two Smart TVs (in bedroom and living room) offer Netflix, Prime Video, Roku, cable, and even DVDs. Perfect for relaxing after a day exploring Maui.

5. Your Home in a Resort Paradise
Papakea is not just a resort—it’s a 13-acre oceanfront tropical retreat. With 2 pools, 2 hot tubs, 3 tennis courts, 12-hole putting greens, shuffleboard, and oceanside cabanas, there's always something to enjoy—or not. Reading under the palm trees counts too.

6. Walk to Everything
Beach access is 2 minutes away, leading to miles of shoreline and the scenic Kaanapali boardwalk. World-class shopping and dining at Whaler’s Village or snorkeling at Black Rock are all nearby.

7. Dine In or Eat Out – Your Choice
With Times Market across the street and ABC Store next door, stocking up is easy. Not cooking? Walk to dozens of restaurants and food trucks within ¼ mile.

8. Onsite Concierge = Stress-Free Fun
Let our friendly concierge team help you book tours, luaus, snorkeling, or restaurant reservations. All just steps away.

9. True Owner-Direct Rental
No guessing. No third-party surprises. You’re renting directly from us—the owners who care. What you see is exactly what you get.

10. All the Extras You Didn’t Know You Needed
Free parking, free WiFi, beach towels, beach chairs, iron, hair dryer, and more. Even a mirror in the living room reflects the ocean, so you see waves from the kitchen!

2. No Resort Fees: Unlike many Maui resorts, Papakea has no daily resort or hidden fees.

A little bit of paridise

The condo was very clean and had an amazing view!! The resort was beautiful. The main bed was very comfortable, but the hide-a-bed not so much. We absolutely loved our stay!!!

Great place!

This place is everything it's represented to be online, but Ray was an especially awesome host. We had a communication problem (on my part, not his - I'd had trouble changing the number of guests on the VRBO app and hadn't realized I hadn't correctly registered the number of guests when my son and girlfriend decided to join us kind of last minute). Ray was super helpful, didn't hold the error against me, and helped us figure out everything we needed. Highly recommend this condo and owner!

One bedroom condo

We loved the resort and the location. The grounds and pool areas were very well maintained . We have stayed over in Kehei area previously and decide to try this area. The condo was a one bedroom with king bed. The mattress was a bit lumpy but otherwise ok.The kitchen was well equipped. The ice machine on the fridge didn’t produce ice so we had to buy ice. The air conditioner didn’t seem to keep the condo very cool. The unit is on the end by the stairwell which can be noisy at night. We did have issues with the wash machine and contacted the owner who was pleasant to deal with and was attending to the problem promptly, however it had not been fixed by the time we left. I would rate this condo 3.75/5. Location resort and staff 5/5

We enjoyed the location. The place was clean and looked like the pictures. Getting to and from the pool/ bbq area and beach was an easy walk. The A/C never got very cold when we returned to our room which was the only drawback we experienced.

Ants and roaches

The resort was lovely but we were disappointed with our stay in the unit. There was an infestation of ants and roaches in the kitchen where we had to throw out groceries that became contaminated. The owner was immediately responsive and offered pest treatment which we declined to avoid exposure to chemicals. Instead, since we didn’t feel comfortable using the kitchen, we asked for a 25% discount off the daily rate which was rejected. The owner offered $100 to cover food-related costs, but later wrote that refund would only be available after we submitted our review. At this time of writing, it is unknown whether we will receive that refund.

Wonderful condo right on the beach

Condo is in prime location. We found everything as described. You have everything what you need for a wonderful stay in Paradise. Owner was very responsive. We had one minor topic and it was solved immediately. Reception staff of resort is very helpful. Location is great with a coffee right around the corner, food trucks with great local food just next and the beach right in front of the resort. Just perfect.

Done with vrbo

Had a week in Lahaina, HI booked for our 52nd anniversary and was on our way to the airport when we learned of the fires and that travel was being restricted to essential. We turned around and came home, and asked vrbo for a refund, but were told that the owner refused. Contacted vrbo for assistance, and they made good on the refund. Owner still upset about them coming to my rescue. VRBO + Owner -

Paradise!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Papakea. The unit was as described but nothing could describe the view!! It was amazing. The view of Lanai, the pool, putting greens, shuffle board and the gorgeous ocean!! The morning sun and a nice shady afternoon/evening made the patio so comfortable! All the comforts of home and the convenience of having laundry in our unit made our stay so enjoyable. Our host was so responsive and the staff at Papakea were so friendly! Thank you for giving us a great “home base” for all our adventures. PS-bring your snorkel gear-so much to see in the beach area of the resort and within a few minutes drive.
