About this property

Steps From Snorkeling, Sunsets & Serenity

Just minutes from Ka’anapali and Kapalua, this oceanfront one‑bedroom plus loft condo in Napili offers sweeping views of the Pacific and the neighboring islands. With space for up to five guests, this two‑level retreat is perfect for couples, families, or small groups looking for a peaceful, authentic Maui escape. And with Napili Bay—one of Maui’s best swimming beaches—just a short walk away, you’ll have soft sand, calm water, and unforgettable sunsets right at your fingertips.

Inside, the main level features a bedroom with a queen and a twin bed, a full bath, a beautifully upgraded kitchen with granite countertops, a cozy living area, and a private lanai overlooking the ocean. Upstairs, the open mezzanine offers a California King bed, its own bathroom, and a closet—ideal for added comfort and privacy. The downstairs bedroom also includes air conditioning, and ceiling fans throughout keep the space breezy and comfortable.

Honokeana Cove is a beloved hidden gem, and many guests return year after year for its unmatched setting and warm, welcoming atmosphere. The secluded cove offers some of the best snorkeling on Maui, with green sea turtles, tropical fish, and coral formations just steps from shore. Guests also enjoy weekly pupu gatherings, oceanfront BBQ grills, and a relaxed, friendly community feel that’s hard to find anywhere else.

Kapalua Resort—with championship golf and world‑class tennis—is just minutes away, and nearby Honolua Bay and Ka’anapali Beach offer even more opportunities for snorkeling, surfing, and adventure. Whether you’re exploring the island or staying close to home, this condo’s location delivers the perfect balance of convenience and tranquility.

With one of the best ocean views in the entire complex, this unit offers exceptional value and an unforgettable Maui experience. We also offer last‑minute specials and may be able to help you find another unit at the same resort if your dates are unavailable.

Best of Both Worlds!

Awesome snorkeling steps from condo AND 5min walk to sandy beach, what else do you need! No need for a boat snorkel tour as we saw tons of turtles, all sorts of reef fish, eels, urchins as well as even an octopus! Also, discovered restaurant in neighboring resort with great happy hour and reasonably priced meals. I emailed the manager to ask if there were any beach toys (never got a reply) but discovered four beach chairs, two boogie boards and an array of snorkeling gear that was in the closet and put to good use. Overall, great place with awesome snorkeling!

While Lahaina Town is sadly gone and will take a long time to rebuild, there is still much to do. We ziplined on Haleakala, rode horseback at Circle M ranch and went fishing out of Maalaea harbor. And the Cove was packed with turtles as usual.

Gorgeous view, uncomfortable chairs on lanai

The property was wonderful! Well maintained gardens, fabulous snorkeling with soooo many turtles. And at this time of year, March, lots of whales to watch. The pool small but delightful. The view from the lanai was stunning. This is a quiet spot, if you want bars and restaurants don’t come here! The unit owner needs to upgrade their seating on their lanai (deck), incredibly uncomfortable and the occasional chair in the living room was sagging big time. Unit was clean with sufficient supplies.
