About this property

Maui Resort Rentals: Honua Kai Hokulani 144 – Large Ground Floor 1BR, Spacious Lawn Area + Easy Pools/Beach Access

Hokulani 144 is a premier ground-floor suite with one of Honua Kai's largest one-bedroom floor plans and easy access to the pools, beach, and BBQs mere steps away! Enjoy the extra space to spread out on the partially secluded adjacent lawn area. Take in the views of the majestic West Maui Mountains or the resort's lush, manicured grounds from this suite's delightful location.

When it's time to rest, the gentle Maui breeze will lull you into deep slumber in the primary bedroom's king-sized bed. If needed, the sofa converts to a queen-sized bed to accommodate an extra guest or two. The living room and primary bedroom both have a flat screen television if you want to catch your favorite show before you drift off.

We encourage you to express your culinary creativity in the well-appointed kitchen. The space is complemented with stainless steel Bosch appliances and granite countertops, as well as a full array of utensils. We also exclusively offer a Vitamix blender to create the perfect tropical smoothie or libation... just bring the ingredients. Enjoy your meal outside under the majesty of the West Maui mountains or dine indoors in the climate-controlled air conditioning.

Take pleasure in spending your days at the resort’s three-acre aquatic playground. With four separate swimming pools, a waterslide, waterfalls, fountains, and four hot tubs, there will be no shortage of options for you and your loved ones to enjoy.

When it is time for a bite to eat, Honua Kai is home to the popular Duke’s Beach House, which serves breakfast, lunch, dinner, and cocktails. Duke’s specializes in serving up Hawaiian-inspired cuisine using locally sourced ingredients and freshly caught seafood. Should you wish to enjoy a refreshment by the water, poolside service is available. For coffee, sandwiches, and other grab-and-go items, including beach gear and souvenirs, visit the Whalers General Store conveniently located in the Konea Tower lobby.

A state-of-the-art fitness center is located in the Konea Tower, perfect for guests looking to maintain their workout routine during their stay.

Should you feel like pampering yourself with a refreshing massage or treatment, head to the Mana Ola Spa. This sanctuary within the resort weaves Hawaiian-inspired themes and ingredients into its wide array of signature treatments. Revitalize your senses with a Hawaiian Lomi Lomi Massage, Pohaku Massage, or Purifying Ocean Mineral Facial.

If you wish to avoid excessive baggage fees from the airlines, consider packing lighter and utilizing the washer and dryer in the residence. Free upgraded 300 Mbps high-speed Wi-Fi is available and included with your stay. Complimentary booster seats, high chairs, and futons are also available upon request (based on availability).

Honua Kai occupies 38 pristine beachfront acres on the shores of Kaʻanapali’s North Beach, so you’ll literally be just steps away from the tranquility of Maui’s shoreline. Stroll out to the beach to touch your toes in the soft sand or take a refreshing dip in the Pacific Ocean. An “Ohana Play Package” including beach chairs, BBQ equipment, and a portable cooler is provided complimentary.

If during your stay you require assistance or advice about the surrounding area or the suite, rest assured that you’ll be swiftly taken care of with aloha by one of our friendly and knowledgeable liaisons - hand-picked from West Maui’s leading luxury hotels. Help will never be far away because our offices are ideally located directly across the street.

*Please note that Honua Kai is located in a hotel-zoned area meant for tourism and is thus safe from Maui's pending short-term rental ban affecting apartment-zoned areas.*

Couldn’t have asked for a better location on this property; close enough to make grabbing things from the room easy, but far enough away from the pool noise. Very relaxing!

Great property, location and accommodations.

Everything was great and as advertised. The check in through the valet was very simple and quick. They were very professional. We loved the ground floor walk out unit and convenience to the pools and beach. Our only complaint was the sofa was stained and looked dirty. It needed a good cleaning or simply to be replaced.

Great location. Simple accommodations.

Location was close to all 5 pools, hot tubs, towel closets, & Duke's restaurant. Quiet. Spacious bathroom. Convenient for connecting with family. Loved the large circle walkway for evening walks. Also close to beach boardwalk that goes for miles. Beach walks were also close by. Walking distance to Times Market & food wagons. 5 min drive to Farmer's Market org. store to the north and 10 min drive to Lahaina center.

Perfect Location

Our room was ready for check-in 2 hours earlier than expected, which we were notified by text as we waited by the pool. So convenient! This is our 3rd time staying at Honua Kai resort. This ground floor room is the PERFECT location- steps to the pool, beach and lobby! Also a large grass areas right outside the lanai which is great for kids and families to run around and play on. The kitchen was clean and had all the necessary utensils, dishes and cookware. The washing machine needs minor repair, but works fine nonetheless. Despite the scary tsunami warning/evacuation and nearby wild fire during our 12 days, we very much enjoyed our stay! Mahalo!

Aloha and mahalo for your comments. We're happy to offer an early check-in when possible and we're glad that you appreciated the early entry. We agree that the location of this home is conveniently located and offers access to a lot of outdoor spaces. The tsunami warning and wildfire were scary, but Maui County is on top of these types events and all was handled well and without event. We're glad that you still very much enjoyed your stay! It was our pleasure to host your family and we hope to see you again. With aloha, MRR

Wonderful ground unit for family of four

The unit location was great for easy access to and from the beach/pool. Not having to take the elevator was a big convenience for us. Unit was clean and as advertised. They had two beach chairs and a cooler. Management was prompt when we asked for an additional blanket for the pull out couch. The only plus would have been if boogie boards were included so we didn’t have to rent them.

Loved the ground floor!

Being on the ground floor greatly enhanced our stay. The pools were fantastic and having Duke's on property was huge (still craving the poke tacos & hula pie) but having our own little yard was the best.

Terrific Spot! Highly recommend!

This was a great 1 bedroom condo for our family! My husband and I brought out two little ones (5) and (almost 2). The ground floor level was perfect access to the pools, Ordering takeout from Dukes (7 mins round trip) and a short walk to the beach. I was slightly nervous about being close to a walkway but it was not bad at all. The bushes and plants provided enough privacy and the resort is well secured. Maui resort rentals provided a pack n play (upon request) beach chairs, umbrella, boogie boards and a cooler. Which was perfect for our group and we used for the pool and beach. The unit has a washer and dryer which came in handy. It would add a little extra convenience if the unit had more bath towels ( comes with 4) but that is an extra ask. The resort has beach/pool towels you check Out with wristbands. There are a few towel spots around the resort. This made it really easy to exchange towels as needed. The pull out couch was great for our 5 year old. Not comfy for an adult though. We will book here again.

Great property and clean unit

Overall the resort is a great place for families with lots of great amenities. The unit itself was clean, spacious and had all what we needed. The host was responsive and they follow up multiple times to make sure we are not missing anything. Location of the unit is convenient specially for kids if they are coming wet from the pool. Unit is close to the main pools and beach . Only thing which is a reasonable compromise is that the unit is next to the entry door which means the patio isnt as private but to be honest this will be the same for all ground floor unites. For us this was ok because we did spend most of the time outside in the pool and beaches and only used the patio at dinner time. If I have a recommendation for the host it would be to work with the resort for a smoother checkin process since there was a confusion on the check in time with the front desk. The hosted fixed it as soon as I called to be fair

Perfect experience from arrival to departure

LOVED - LOVED - LOVED the location of this room right on the ground floor so close to the main lobby and quick walk to the pools and restaurant. The accommodations were perfect for our 7 yr old son and 6 yr old daughter who shared the queen pull out sofa bed in the front room. We were able to put them to sleep and close the door and enjoy each other’s company and TV without waking our kiddos up. Loved the kitchen - great for our kids to have cereal and make coffee, ice box was great for drinks and medicines. We used the washer and drier a lot! Loved the convince to do clothes and towels. That alone was worth it! Our little guys can’t seem to go a day without going through 2 pairs of clothes! Loved the bathroom! So big! Great shower pressure and loved the space and that there were two doors so the kids didn’t have to go through our bedroom in the middle of the night. The outdoor garden area and table was great! We enjoyed a couple of carry out meals outside. Super relaxing and enjoyable. Loved that the resort have pool towels that could be auto distributed and dropped off. Also I love the cabana rentals they were perfect! There’s so much more I can go on about how do you not have the space. The staff are SOOO nice! Perfect location and experience for our family! We’ll be back!

Happy little getaway

We stayed at Honua Kai H144 in late June 2021 and had a wonderful experience. We were a family of 4 (2 teens). The room was as stated and facilities were expansive even in covid times. Loved being on the ground floor with easy access to the pool, store, and beach with no wait for the elevator. The two things that would have made the trip “easier”: this unit didn’t have a can opener (that we could find) so we got creative with opening cans, and the unit only had 4 bath towels (no beach towels) so we bought some beach towels and made sure to hand bath towels to minimize washing laundry. Yes, we could have used towels from the pool but those were sometimes a challenge to find AND had a fee if a towel wasn’t returned so we chose not to create that worry and nagging with the teens. Overall this gets a 5 star from our family and we can’t wait to visit again soon!
