Spacious, well fitted out, with a fabulous lanai plus

The Honua Kai property was as advertised, clean, gracious, with beautifully manicured grounds and lots of space to stretch out. Unit 1025 was spacious with breathtaking views of the strait between the beach and Lanai from each of the rooms and especially the lanai. We saw whales every day splashing around in the ocean. It was truly special.

Family Fun!

We have been to Honua Kai many times. This way by far the nicest unit we have stayed in. Spectacular view! We had to reach out to the property management company a few times, and both times they were extremely quick with their response. Great company to work with! I would recommend this unit and Maui Life Reality to anyone looking for a quality family vacation in Maui.

Great view nice property

Pleasant stay, quiet setting, friendly people. Kitchen could of used better cleaning, pots and pan need be replaced, Teflon all scratched and scraped. Should be stocked with more toilet paper than was supplied for amount of people. All beds comfortable!! Ventless dryer not so desirable, but absolutely better than nothing.

Everything we'd hoped for and more!

The pictures tell it all. Beautiful, well equipped condo with spectacular views. Some days it was difficult to pull ourselves away for island activities. Whale sightings galore. It was our 50th anniversary and we shared the condo with our two children's families. Very comfortable and more than enough room. We were particularly pleased with the quick responses we received from Barry & Lyle, whenever we had questions. No actual problems, just random questions and they still responded promptly.

The Place to Stay in Maui!

We loved the condo---adored the view from the Lanai---and had an absolutely fantastic time! We are in our late 60s and early 70s, and we met out kids (in their 30s) and our granddaughter (age 2) for an 11 night stay over Thanksgiving. Everyone loved the condo, the pools, and the beach. It appeals to all ages. Did I mention we had a good time? Now for some details: The management of this condo is excellent. Barry, Thomas, and the entire gang are very responsive to your every need. I was cooking Thanksgiving dinner at the condo and had a bowl obsession, and a need for more silverware. What we requested---and even more---was delivered in a very timely fashion. The Lanai has a stunning view of the ocean, and you can even see your party in the river pool below. We had most of our meals on the Lanai, but of course, enjoyed visiting Dukes regularly also. The condo is well situated for quick visits to other beaches---we especially liked DT Fleming Beach Park (a ten minute drive) , and the Kahekili Beach Park just a short walk down the beach walk from Honua Kai. At the Honua Kai beach area, the best beach is on the third entry on the left. The condo has great beach toys for your use from Tommy Bahama beach chairs, sand castle making toys, and beach umbrellas. The beach walk itself is very scenic from Honua Kai to the other Kaanapali resorts, with lots of shopping and restaurants. We have returned home now and it is snowing. I would highly recommend 1025 at Honua Kai. It has plenty of room, was heavenly, has a view that can't be beat, and it never snowed once when we were there!

Amazing spot!!!

The view at this place was unbelievable! We saw whales every day and loved grilling and watching the sunset. So glad we stocked up at Costco and Safeway because we didn’t want to leave. Snorkeling right at the beach and fun, kid friendly waves. The pool and waterslide were also fun. Lastly, the blow up mattresses were nice for our smaller kids. What a dream vacation!

Beautiful View, Condo needs work

While the view was outstanding, we found the condo itself to be in need of work. For the price we paid per night, we felt the condo was lacking in basic amenities like a working oven (ours made a terrible noise), a cleaning product to wipe down the kitchen, full length mirror and so much more. The door handle/lock to the balcony was broken. I would not recommend staying here until improvements on the condo are made. Again, for the money we spent the clean up process should have been included instead of us having to do the work. We have stayed in many places that offered a more updated and better working condo with a view for much less money.

Honua Kai 3 Bedroom Penthouse

First off, I want to say the property and penthouse were beautiful and definitely met our needs. My complaint is that the property management company changed from the time we booked to the time we arrived. This change was not communicated to us. I kept receiving emails from the previous rental company. For example, the check in video did not match the actual process at all because of the change. The day after we arrived, I received another email asking how our first day had been and if there was anything they could do to help. When I reached out for assistance I was told they no longer managed the unit. Because of the change in property managers, the rental listing was not accurate. It stated it was fully stocked and that there would be beach items in the closet behind the front door. When we arrived, there was nothing stocked (i.e. spices, storage bags, foil etc) in the kitchen other than starter coffee. The closet behind the front door was empty. There were no beach chairs in the rental. For the amount of money paid, and given the property has beach access, I would have thought this would have been a staple. With that said, and knowing what to expect next time around, our group looks forward to visiting again.

Misled left and right

For the amount that you pay to stay in a penthouse suite l, you would expect solid communication and a property that meets your expectations. This was not that… The property manager (Maui reality) we’re garbage and took no ownership over the many lies and issues we had. First off, we received wristbands that did not work/open our room door. We arrived late (9pm) and not one was answering from Maui reality. Luckily the bellmen were nice e out to let us into our room. We did not get a callback until 9am the next morning. The suite smell was overpowering with paint in the rooms and bleach in the showers. WiFi didn’t work, which rendered the TVs useless. Even after the WiFi was corrected 20 hours after check in, the TVs didn’t connect to watch apps like Netflix. No big deal, we didn’t go to Maui to watch TV, but would have been nice at night with the kids. The cabinets were bare, no large bowls,Tupperware, or any storage containers of any kind. There were no beach chairs, boogie boards, umbrella or coolers as advertised. The grill didn’t work and when were used the gas oven, it made a horrific sound like it was going to explode. All of this, while Maui reality was unreachable still times, took zero ownership and communication was almost non-existent. Almost as though, they knew if was going to be an issue and ghosted us for a week so they didn’t hear the complaints. At the end of our trip, we were trying to reach the owner of the management company, Scott and he was unreachable… email, calls and text left unanswered. Called his office and received no return. We were tying to extend our stay because we wasted the first two days dealing with issues. At the end of the day, the room and location are beautiful. The management company is absolute garbage human beings, liars and lazy.
