About this property

Your Turtle‑Front Retreat Honokeana Cove 204 with A/C

Honokeana Cove 204 is a beautiful second‑floor condo offering a nearly 180‑degree view of the Cove—one of the most breathtaking vantage points in Napili. This northwest‑facing unit stays comfortably shaded all day, so you can relax on the lanai without sun shades while enjoying turtles gliding below, seasonal whale watching, and the soothing sound of the ocean.

Inside, the mezzanine bedroom features a queen bed, while the downstairs bedroom offers two twin beds that can be converted into a king upon request. Both spaces are cooled by air‑conditioning units at no extra charge, in addition to ceiling fans throughout the condo.

The kitchen is fully equipped with stainless steel Whirlpool appliances, Blue Pearl granite countertops, under‑mount sinks, and Maple cabinetry—perfect for preparing meals to enjoy on your lanai with an oceanfront backdrop.

Honokeana Cove is known for some of the best snorkeling on Maui. The cove is filled with vibrant coral, colorful tropical fish, and an abundance of green sea turtles. It’s not a matter of if you’ll see them—it’s how many. Kayaking and paddleboarding are also popular right from the shoreline.

If you’re used to large hotels with endless hallways, Honokeana Cove offers a refreshing alternative. Instead of daily maid service or a 24‑hour desk, you’ll enjoy spacious living, a full kitchen, comfortable bedrooms, and the freedom to relax at your own pace. Quiet hours from 10 pm to 8 am keep the property peaceful—perfect for couples, families, and groups seeking a calm, scenic retreat. With only 38 units in this gated oceanfront community, you’ll experience the charm of Old Hawaii with modern comforts and unforgettable sunsets.

Located in Napili, West Maui—just a quarter mile south of Napili Bay’s sandy public beach—Honokeana Cove is surrounded by lush tropical landscaping and offers stunning views of Molokai from every unit. A heated oceanfront pool sits just steps from your door, adding to the dreamlike atmosphere of this tropical paradise.

The best snorkel bay in the west side

Up to 10 sea turtles will come ashore every night, calm bay to see turtles and fish anytime of the day. Awesome location, lush gardens, special touches like tiki torches at night.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family loved staying at Honokeana Cove for the first part of our April trip to Maui. The nearly private cove is a great snorkelling locale and we saw tons of turtles, some the size of VWs! The BBQs and grounds are very well maintained and the small size of the complex makes it easy to have friendly conversations with neighbors if you like. We returned from at day at a nearby beach to the entire complex watching whales breaching just outside the cove. The complex is walking distance to the grocery and other beaches. We will definitely return here.

Aloha Chris, Thank you for your comments. This unit is not are just a few items that need some attention. Both bathrooms were recently remodeled . Sorry about the rusty there were 2 other spatulas in the drawer. We have been so busy since we opened that the owner can not even get some time in his own unit to get some of these taken care of. But, trust me, this owner will definitely take care of all of these small things when he finally gets back to Maui. It was a pleasure having you back and hope to see you again early! mahalo, su

Access to snorkeling was so easy and we snorkeled with the resident turtles every day and admired them sleeping on the beach every night. Loved proximity to Napili Beach.

The unit was extremely clean and ready when we arrived, even though we were a couple of hours early. The unit has everything you need during your stay (full kitchen, ice maker in freezer, dishes, towels, etc...). There were even beach chairs and an ice chest in the closet. The view was gorgeous and we spent a full day snorkeling in the cove right outside our door. There were huge turtles and a variety of fish to see. It was also a lot less crowded than the other beach areas. Check in and check out were quick and easy. We will definitely stay here on our next trip to Maui.

Wonderful place, great people, quiet, but NEEDS A/C!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family stayed here for 3 nights and absolutely loved the location, private cove, and amenities in our unit. The property was well cared for, and we definitely felt the pride in ownership there. I enjoyed how quiet and secure the place was, and it was very family friendly. However, we roasted in our unit the first night (as it was all closed up) and our last night. We had to sleep with cold packs and one of my kiddos woke up with a severe heat rash. Granted, it was un-seasonably hot, and you would think that being directly on the ocean would be OK; but in the lofts the fans don't help if they are circulating hot air! I would LOVE to come back here again, but this upgrade is almost a necessity for us to return.
Response from VrboOwner on 31 May 2022
Aloha Jeremy & Megan, Sorry for the hot weather: the worst in my 45 years on Maui. Come on back in Spring and enjoy our Trade winds. thank you so much for the review. We look forward to your next stay at the Cove. mahalo, su
