A private luxury oceanfront retreat in Napili, Maui
Some places slow you down the moment you arrive. The air is different. The light is different. The sound of the ocean below the lanai does something to your nervous system that no itinerary can replicate.
Alana Pūnana — perched above a secluded Napili bay within the beloved Alaeloa community — was built for exactly that feeling. Unobstructed ocean views, tropical seclusion, and the rare, unhurried grace of West Maui as it used to be. Not just a place to visit Maui from. A place to disappear into it.

This is a beautiful and well provisioned property. It felt like a friend had lent us their fabulous home. The owner/ manager was very pleasant and helpful. We had been worried about there not being AC, but it was not an issue (albeit we were there in winter). There are very good fans and ample opportunity for cross breeze. The view from the private lanai is stunning. One of my favorite places anywhere!
This home is truly amazing and is great for 2 couples or a family of 4-ish. The views and sound of the ocean are spectacular and the setting so peaceful and serene. We Kayaked from the cove in the community and the ocean side pool was fabulous. The home itself is set up perfectly and we didn't want for anything. We highly recommend this property.

About the host
Hosted by Valentina Guolo
I was born and raised in Italy and moved to California in my twenties where I have started a few businesses around food & wine. I've always loved the ocean and dreamed of living by it. Maui has stole my heart 20 years ago and I spend my time trying to get back to the island!
Why they chose this property
I fell in love with this home the moment I first saw it! I had waited for an oceanfront property in Alaeloa for over 10 years, when my dream home finally came on the market.
What makes this property unique
This peaceful, quaint, private home sits over a secluded bay and is blessed with incredible views, the sound of the waves and the perfect breeze. Both bedrooms are oceanfront! I'm honored to share this incredible home with you, so you can experience the true old time aloha spirit...
