Best Ocean Views on Maui...Perfect for Honeymooners!! NO RESORT FEES!


*** NO RESORT FEES OR PARKING FEES! ***

*** Our condo is Unit 1013, located in The Lanai Building at The Mahana. We recently had our roof replaced in the summer of 2024, so there will be no construction work in our building this year. This year’s roof replacement project will be taking place in The Molokai Building, affecting condo units ending in '01' through '10. ***


Come kick back in a newly renovated 10th-floor oceanfront STUDIO condo – a bright and comfy spot with a modern vibe. Sleep like a dream on the king-sized Novaform memory foam mattress, with blackout shades to make sure you get a great night’s rest.

Wake up to amazing ocean views, the sound of waves crashing, and the chance to spot whales, turtles, and snorkelers below. It’s the perfect spot to relax and soak in the coastal vibes.

The Mahana is a cool oceanfront resort located on the quiet northern end of Kaanapali Beach. As soon as you arrive, you’ll feel the peaceful atmosphere, with a tree-lined path leading you to your condo, just 50 feet from the water.

Each condo here has its own private glass balcony with jaw-dropping views of Lanai and Molokai. The resort is great for sunbathers, snorkelers, or anyone wanting to kick back by the oceanfront grassy lawn, pool and spa. You can also take a nice stroll along the beach path to check out Black Rock and Whaler’s Village.

There’s no restaurant on-site, but there are plenty of great places to eat nearby, like Duke’s at Honua Kai and a Food Truck park is just a short walk away. Plus, you’ve got Times Market and Farmer’s Market close by to grab some local goodies.

Unit 1013 is a well-kept, recently renovated spot that’s perfect for your vacation. It’s got new wood flooring, a cool tile shower, frameless glass, and quartz countertops for a fresh, modern look.
The king memory foam mattress and soft cotton sheets make it easy to relax, and L'Occitane bath products are a nice touch. You’ll also have fast WiFi and a 55-inch 4K TV with Roku, so you can stream Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, HBO Max, and ESPN.

When you head to the beach, you’ve got Tommy Bahama beach chairs, an umbrella, towels, and a cooler all ready to go. Plus, things like an iron, hairdryer, binoculars, and guidebooks are available to make your island adventures even easier.

At The Mahana, you can enjoy the heated pool and hot tub, or hang out at one of the BBQ areas, play tennis, or shuffleboard. Free parking is available for guests, making everything even more convenient.

From the beautiful surroundings to all the comforts inside Unit 1013, The Mahana is the ultimate spot for a relaxing Maui getaway.

You’re welcome to use the pool, hot tub, grills, and beach chairs on the oceanfront lawn.

We want you to have the best time in Maui! If you need anything or have questions during your stay, just call or text me. We’re here to help!

Located on the quieter northern end of Kaanapali Beach, you’ll find great snorkeling right in front of the resort on the sandy beach. Times Market is less than a quarter-mile away, along with other restaurants and coffee shops. There are also other Farmer’s Markets nearby. You can take a nice walk along the beach path, which goes for two miles, passing Black Rock, the Sheraton, and Whaler’s Village.

Renting a car is recommended to make getting around easier.

Enjoy free parking at The Mahana. You can easily print your parking pass from the lobby computer using your last name, rental car license plate and condo number (1013).

Please note, there’s no smoking allowed inside the condo or on the lanai.

Reservations of five nights or longer are welcomed, though shorter stays are accommodated to fill the calendar. For availability, contact via email or check updates on Instagram (WestMauirentals).

Additional options managed by the same team include Mahana Unit 802, Honua Kai's one-bedroom condo, and Lahaina Shores' oceanfront studio on Front Street.

Perfect Honeymoon spot

My husband and I stayed here for the first half of our honeymoon… it is RIGHT on the water. The views are literally breathtaking. We saw probably 100 whales and tons of turtles from the balcony. It’s also walking distance to food trucks and restaurants, we would love to visit again!!

Never want to leave

We loved this place! Very clean and fresh condo, but the Mahana itself is awesome. Convenient free parking spot a few steps away from the elevator, keypad entry to the room so you don’t need to remember to carry any key to the beach, incredible views of a lively ocean with constant whales and turtles… we definitely want to come back one day. Thanks Louis

Beautiful condo with unbeatable views

This condo unit at the Mahana was simply perfect for my week-long stay. The unit overlooks the beach, offers unobstructed views of the islands of Lanai and Molokai, and was perfect for sitting outside and listening to the crashing waves at night. The furnishings on the patio were comfortable and ideal for lounging in the sun, watching Maui's gorgeous sunsets at night, and I can't imagine a better place to whale watch during the season. The unit is stocked with everything you need to enjoy the beach, including beach chairs, towels, and boogie boards. The inside of the unit is bright and welcoming with an incredibly comfortable King-sized bed, a fully stocked kitchen, a washer/dryer, and a wonderfully bright bathroom. Everything was very fresh feeling and up-to-date. The building is in a great spot with plentiful parking and several restaurants, coffee shops, and food trucks conveniently located a short walk away. The boardwalk/pathway to Whaler's Village is accessible just past the end of the grass on the property, which made for an easy option to walk along the coast. Finally, I loved the host. He was unfailingly responsive and was a pleasure to deal both with before and during the trip. I 100% recommend this rental!

A lovely stay in a studio with a great view full of wonderful amenities.

Highlights: View is incredible, feels like you’re on a cruise ship the water is right there. Access to washer/dryer with washing powder makes travel easy Extra sets of towels were very handy also Full kitchen allows you to cook, or for us to chop up great fresh fruit Parking is free and on site Great wireless charger/dock so no need for travel adapters if you have USB-A cables. Access to a cooler bag/Esky with frozen bricks in the freezer makes day tripping a little easier. Louis was a good communicator, and answers every message quickly and with aloha. Lowlights Location is very good but just enough out of the way that you’ll need a hire car to stay here or be in and out of Ubers. It’s close to the hourly bus though. There’s a bit of noise as it’s right next to the lift and the neighbours, and the light that comes through the front door disturbs sleep a little bit. The blackout blinds were good but let just enough light in to wake us up at sunrise everyday.

Sleek studio, amazing ocean views and sounds

This place was so amazing that we've already looked at units for sale in the same building. The views out to the ocean and adjacent islands (which included lots of turtles and great sunsets) were spectacular. The biggest surprise was how prominent the ocean noise was - in a GREAT way - despite being on the 10th floor. Looking forward to coming back :)

Maui vacation

We came to Maui hoping to island hop. But with covid we had issues getting tested and still enjoy our vacation. So we decided to stay in Maui for our 10 beautiful days. We stayed here our last two days. They views were amazing. We saw so many whales and spinner dolphins everywhere. Sea turtles swimming along the shore. It’s a beautiful room and very clean and comfortable.

Million Dollar Views From This Stunning Location

Louis was over-the-top fantastic! He made us feel so comfortable in his gorgeous condo - like we were the only clients he’d ever had! The Mahana is meticulously maintained and provides an enchanting sense of arrival. The condo is conveniently located close to the elevator for easy access. Once inside, we were treated to a fantastic view of the ocean. We had a slight hiccup getting to the condo (Louis knows all about the fire on October2nd). The frozen food we bought had thawed - so blessing in disguise - we ended up eating almost all of our dinners on the lanai. It was so nice and seriously, you can’t get a better view at any restaurant! The kitchen is fully equipped so no problem with easy meal prep. The bed is super comfy and the black-out drapes are wonderful! So much attention to detail is evident in this condo. We would not hesitate to recommend this unit to anyone. Thank you Louis!

Heaven on Earth

I think we may have just found our favorite place on Earth. Everything about Louis' condo was top notch - well furnished; exceptionally clean; great location in a quieter area just north of most of the resorts, but close enough to walk there; and it was right on the beach where we were able to see some incredible sunsets. Check in/out was super easy, and Louis was easy to communicate with. Overall, the next time we return to Maui, we would definitely stay here again.

Perfect in every way!

My husband and I decided to vacation in Maui after attending a wedding for a family friend in Honolulu. This was my first non-hotel booking and from the moment we booked this condo our experience was excellent. The owner Luis was super helpful with recommendations and answering questions, and he even helped me figure out the best way to snorkel for the first time! He also checked in on us and was very helpful once we go to Maui as well. The room was clean, super comfy, and the kitchen had everything we needed (including a coffee maker). The view though was the the best part. It was stunning!!! We spent so much time just relaxing on the love seat on the balcony just listening to the ocean and enjoying the view. It was also stocked with beach accessories like chairs, umbrella and towels so we did not have to buy or rent any. The location was perfect as well. It's It was not overwhelmed with tourists, an easy walk to swimmable beaches and short drive to everything else on the west part of the island. It was also only about an hour or less away from the airport, the start to to the Road to Hana, and the south part of the island (Kihei/Wailea). The beach out front was not swimmable due to coral but it was walkable and you can snorkel right there as well, which is best in the morning when the tide is low and water is calmest. I seriously can't say enough positive things about this condo and Luis. Our stay in Maui was magical and we totally plan to come back and stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Louis Trinh

Host profile image
My wife and I, along with our four kids, live in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia. I work at a hospital near us, and my wife, Kristine, takes care of the household. Kristine is Hawaiian, and when we go back to visit family, we usually stay at a hotel. We normally visit Maui twice a year, and since we have outgrown hotel rooms, it just made sense to buy a condo with great amenities so that we feel like we ARE on vacation. We take a lot of pride in keeping The Mahana condo perfect and our guests happy. Our condo is filled with amenities to make sure that you are comfortable, and will happily do everything we can to accommodate your needs.

Why they chose this property

The VIEWS!!! Its second to none. The Mahana has a great history and is a very well-maintained resort. This side of Kaanapali Beach is quiet, has great views of Lanai and Molokai, and you can snorkel right on our beach. Relax poolside and take in the sunset, its very peaceful. From December to April, you can catch whales playing in the Ocean.

It is also very close to Times Market grocery store, lots of restaurants, a farmer's market, and about ten food trucks in the evenings. Close to everything, though yet set far from it all with a long, welcoming driveway that leads you to The Mahana.

What makes this property unique

Recently renovated with all new furniture, stainless steel GE appliances, artwork by local Maui artist, fresh paint, and new electronics. With comfortable linens, HDTV programming, and the utmost privacy, there is no reason to leave the condo. The Mahana has a pool and spa, tennis court, shuffle board, free wifi, and an Activities Desk in the Lobby to help plan all excursions.
