We were so blown away by the view from the moment we walked in! This property is so perfectly located. It is right on top of the beach. Turtles, rays and seals swim by to say hello. The neighboring beaches, shops and restaurants are a short walk or short drive. And the items within the home are perfectly placed and very thoughtfully selected. We absolutely loved our 8 night stay.

The unit was clean and had a beautiful view. The unit was very hot. The central air did not cool like we are used to. The only way to keep the condo tolerable was to close all the blinds during the day, which defeats the purpose of the great view. We enjoyed the condo at night once it cooled off, but there’s not enough comfortable seating. It sleeps 8, but only 4 fit on the couch. We had 5 adults which left one person sitting on a hard kitchen chair or backless barstool if we all wanted to hang out together. We also paid extra for late check out, but was locked out of our room. We ended up spending time on our last day at the front desk and on the phone trying to get this fixed. The cleaning person also entered the room when we weren’t there. We asked for a partial credit for this inconvenience and did not receive one,

The pictures are accurate. The condo is fully stocked, and rooms comfortable. The view is worth it all. Papakea checkin is effortless and the pools and ocean give bountiful opportunities to swim.

Our stay in Paradise!

We love the Papakea resort and have stayed there many times over the years. This particular unit is exceptionally well equipped and the views are to die for!! Not to mention it is like sleeping right over the ocean as you listen to the waves crashing on shore! No sound machine required. The sound of the ocean is far more soothing!! The unit is clean and very tastefully updated. We will try to rent this particular unit again sometime soon I am sure!! Thanks for a great stay! Merritt Family.

Great unit with a fantastic view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit was very nice with everything we needed to fix the several meals we prepared. The living room was large and comfortable. But the view is fantastic. We spend most of our "in unit" time on the lanai watching the turtles, the beach combers, and the famous Maui sunsets. After all those compliments it seems a shame to have a complaint, but it did affect me. The deck chairs were so high and so heavy I struggled to climb up on them every time I went out to the lanai, (which was several times per day). I'm 5'3" so I'm not exactly a shrimp. But we had a wonderful stay.

Great location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was very nice. Clean and had everything you will need on vacation (minus shampoo and conditioner). It is nicely updated except the carpet on stairs. Location was great. Food trucks and other restaurants close by. A short walk to sand beach but can use lawn chairs next to the ocean on the property. We had a slight hang up with the code to the door upon arrival which was quickly fixed by the rental company. My only other hang up is that it’s advertised as “pent house” when in reality it is a very nice 4th floor condo. While there are ocean views from the living room and master bath, the lanai is only off the living room. The third bedroom is actually a loft with bath—very nice but not private and can be noisy if other family is up before whomever sleeps there. I was expecting a third bedroom with door and the pull out couch to be in loft area. That was my mistake however as I apparently misread the description. Enjoyed our stay but would probably find a condo with an actual third bedroom with door and more lanai area to enjoy the beauty.

Nice but a bit uncomfortable

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo itself is quite beautiful and has all the amenities one could need. Having three bedrooms (1 actually a loft) and three bathrooms was wonderful. However, the furniture was very uncomfortable. The tables and chairs on the lanai were very hard and too tall to sit on comfortably. Because of their height, they would also be very dangerous for children to sit in since the kids would be sitting above the height of the railing. The dining chairs were also quite hard and some were wobbly. The couch was ok but the material was scratchy. The beds in the main bedroom and back bedroom were very hard. The bed in the loft was a bit better. I would stay at this resort again but not in this condo.
