Ground-Floor Oceanfront Suite and Wraparound Lanai at Honua Kai

E komo mai (welcome) to Kai Hele Ku ("The Quickest Way to the Ocean"), where the warm embrace of Maui's kai (sea) and the golden glow of Kaanapali Beach create a magical backdrop for your dream Hawaiian escape. This luxurious 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom retreat at Honua Kai Resort is more than just a place to stay—it's a portal to unforgettable moments, where every sunrise and sunset becomes a treasured memory. With ocean views that steal your breath and amenities that pamper your soul, Kai Hele Ku invites you to slow down, reconnect, and let the aloha spirit carry you away.

Key Features:

Grand Master Bedroom – A Haven of Serenity
• Rest in a king bed so plush it feels like a gentle hug from the island itself. Wake to the shimmering Pacific stretching endlessly before you, a daily reminder of Maui's awe-inspiring beauty.
• Melt your cares away in the en-suite bathroom, where a soaking tub and walk-in rain shower offer a spa-like retreat. The double vanity provides the perfect space to pamper yourself after a day exploring the island.
• Step onto your private lanai, where the makani (breeze) whispers stories of the ocean and the horizon dances with light.

Master Bedroom – Tranquility Perfected
• This elegant suite features a king bed framed by island-inspired touches, making it a sanctuary for relaxation.
• The en-suite bathroom is a personal spa, complete with a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and double sinks that echo mālama (care) and harmony.

Third Bedroom – Flexibility Meets Comfort
• Tailored for ʻohana (family) or friends, this room features a king bed that can easily convert to two twin moena (beds), adapting to your needs with ease.
• A nearby bathroom with a walk-in shower ensures everyone has the privacy and comfort they deserve.

Property Features – Every Detail, Every Luxury
• Ground-Floor Location: Step from your private lanai directly onto lush resort grounds or take a leisurely path to the beach, where the nalu (waves) await your footprints.
• Oceanview Lanai: Sip morning coffee as the sun paints the sky, dine under Maui's starry hōkū (night), or simply sit in awe of the Pacific's infinite beauty.
• In-Suite Laundry: Travel light, knowing a washer and dryer are here to keep everything fresh and convenient.
• Beach Gear Included: Adventure is effortless with chairs, an umbrella, and a cooler ready for your days by the kai (sea).
• High-End Appliances: Whether crafting a tropical breakfast or a feast for the sunset, the fully equipped kitchen lets you channel your inner chef.
• Island-Inspired Luxury: Every detail, from the vibrant décor to the serene color palette, immerses you in the beauty of aloha.

Resort Amenities – A World of Wonder Awaits

Pools & Hot Tubs – Splash, Relax, Repeat
• Dive into a world of water bliss with three pools designed for every mood. Laugh with the keiki (children) as they slide into joy, float peacefully in the lagoon pool, or unwind in the warm embrace of one of five hot tubs under the glittering hōkū (stars).

Ho'olei Spa – A Sanctuary for the Soul
• Surrender to the magic of Hawaiian lomi lomi massage or a rejuvenating facial infused with the healing mana (energy) of the islands. Leave glowing, renewed, and connected to the rhythm of paradise.

Duke's Beach House – Iconic Island Dining
• Savor every bite at Duke's, where fresh island ingredients meet aloha on a plate. Watch the sun dip into the horizon as you toast to another perfect day with a mai tai in hand.

Beachfront Access – Your Playground Awaits
• Stroll down to the golden sands of Kaanapali Beach, where you can swim in turquoise waters, snorkel among honu (sea turtles), or simply sink your toes into the warm embrace of the sand.

Kaanapali Boardwalk – A Path to Paradise
• Just steps from your door, the boardwalk offers endless opportunities for exploration, from vibrant shops to tranquil sunset strolls that will etch themselves into your heart.

Your Hawaiian Escape Awaits
Kai Hele Ku isn't just a suite—it's a story waiting to be written. Here, the rhythm of the ocean, the warmth of the sun, and the gentle touch of the island breeze create moments of ʻike (deep connection) and joy. From luxurious accommodations to breathtaking views, from the first light of dawn to the final glow of sunset, this is where memories are made, love is celebrated, and aloha is lived.

Great condo + great location = great vacation

Our family of six adults and two children stayed at this wonderful property for 11 days . The kitchen & beach cupboards were so well stocked we wanted for nothing! The bedrooms & bathrooms were spacious & comfy. The ground floor location was very convenient as we came and went from the beach and the multiple pools . What a family friendly condo and resort ! Owners were lovely to work with. So glad we found this lovely spot!

Maui Vacation

Property was as described. Great location, very short walk to the beach, easy access from parking lot or garage to condo. Rooms were more than accommodating for our group. Very short walking distance to food truck park, local grocery store that had more than enough, and other resorts for food or drink. Location was ideal for our need and would highly recommend. We loved our stay and would definitely consider staying again.

The place was close to the perfect beach. The amenities were great, and the people who worked at the resort were extremely courteous and helpful. The apartment was spacious and clean. There were a couple of things that I sent emails about and never got a response from the property managers. (For example, the lights in one bathroom did not work.) In the video it mentions that there is soap for the dishwasher and washing machine and if you run out you will need to get it yourself. No problem there, except there was basically four dishwasher soap pouches (enough for four days and we were there for six days). So this meant that we had to go buy some. There was barely any washing machine detergent, so again for a six night stay, we had to purchase soap. I do not know, maybe it is just me, but for a beautiful place that I paid over 12,000 for six days, it is kind of tacky to not have at least enough soap for a week. Other than that, we loved our stay and would totally stay in the same resort again. Thank you!

Family Fun in Maui 2019

We loved our stay at the Honua Kai Condo! The condo is in a perfect location on the ground floor with glass doors that open to the lanai with grassy area and a view of the beautiful ocean. We were a group of 3 couples so the 3 master suites were perfect. The rooms are large and the beds very comfy. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook some meals and we used the community bbq which is a short walk away. Eating our meals on the beautiful lanai was an added bonus. There is a closet full of sand chairs, beach toys and snorkeling equipment - all of which we enjoyed and appreciated. We would definitely come stay again!

Unbelievable!

By the pictures I knew this was going to be a nice place to stay, but I was not prepared with how amazing it was. Everything inside was perfect! The kitchen was stocked with pans, utensils, and everything one would need to cook a meal. The bedrooms, bathrooms, and living area were all wonderful. But the most amazing aspect of this property was it's relation to the beach! Being on the ground floor, having an ocean view, and being able to come and go with very little effort was priceless. I also was impressed with the resort, Hona Kai, that the condo in in. Our family loved staying here. The owner and manager were very pleasant to work with also.

Beautiful condo, pictures don't do it justice!

One of our best family vacations, the condo was amazing, so convenient to walk outside to the beach or around the corner to the pool. The beds were so comfortable and the beach toys and equipment were plentiful. Plenty of beach towels and house towels We had our two yr. granddaughter and the pac n play was perfect, there is two high chairs also. The TV's were big and have Netflex, Hulu, etc. We had a lot of room for 5 adults and one toddler, it is also a very quiet condo. The kitchen was excellent, although, we did not use the convection oven, but it was stocked with all the amenities. Just a FYI, which has nothing to do with the condo, but if you're bringing a toddler that uses diapers, We had a terrible time finding "over night" diapers in any of the stores, so bring plenty! We did bring a big beach blanket from home which came in handy, also. There is a big market around the corner & down the street from the complex or a small expensive one in the complex. We ate one afternoon at Dukes, very good, and a two minute walk from the condo. Every thing was great! A BIG thank you to the owner, for sharing such a beautiful place and Sherry for all the emails and updates. We will be back, Happy Vacation to all, Aloha, Tom and Jennie

We had an amazing stay at “99 Steps”. The condominium was perfect for our party of 5 adults and three children under 4 years of age. We cooked a number of meals in and used the resort BBQ. The first floor location with the lanai and grass was perfect for our grandchildren to run around outside while we drank coffee in the morning. We would absolutely stay here again.

Well managed property steps from the ocean

I love a well managed vrbo! We had a seamless and very relaxing stay. Fresh free towels whenever we wanted at little kiosks open 24/7. The outside patio is nearly completely private because it’s next to a path that is barely taken and there are bushes in-between. This unit is the 2nd closest to the ocean, which is actually the best location (the other is by a busy path and noisy pool are). I counted 4 hot tubs on property, might have been more. The snorkeling a little further down (5 min walk) by the Westin is imo the best on the island. You can continuously swim and snorkel for over an hr and see coral and many varietals of fish. The house is well stocked with pots, pans, spices, olive oil, dishwashing fluid, laundry detergent, soaps, and shampoo/conditioner. Only one small issue and without exaggeration from phone call in the evening to someone showing up with a toolbelt was under 15 min. There’s even a damage waiver policy that covers any damage up to 3,000. We’ll def be coming back.

Absolutely perfect stay

Our group of 3 adults and 3 children loved our stay in this apartment. The location is absolutely stunning, as is the space itself. The ground floor was perfect for our 1.5 year olds - and a wonderful compromise, with a spectacular view, easy accessibility, and no hassle of a balcony. The underground parking onsite made it easy to take day trips to other parts of the island. We could have spent all our time at Honua Kai though! The pools, beach, dining were all outstanding.
