About this property

Right on Honokeana Cove Turtles at Your Doorstep

Honokeana Cove is located in Napili, West Maui—just a quarter mile south of beautiful Napili Bay. This gated, low‑rise 38‑unit community surrounds a secluded ocean cove with breathtaking views of Molokai from every unit. Lush tropical landscaping, quiet surroundings, and classic island charm make this one of the most peaceful and authentic oceanfront settings on Maui.

The cove itself offers some of the best snorkeling on the island, with calm waters, vibrant coral, tropical fish, and resident green sea turtles gliding right below your lanai. A heated oceanfront pool sits just steps from your condo, adding to the dreamlike, resort‑style atmosphere. This unit sleeps up to 6 guests comfortably and is located in one of the more private buildings—your own almost‑secluded sanctuary by the sea.

If you’re used to large hotels, Honokeana Cove offers a refreshing alternative. Instead of long hallways and crowded lobbies, you’ll enjoy spacious condos with full kitchens, private bedrooms, and room to relax together. Quiet hours from 10 pm to 8 am ensure peaceful nights, and the intimate community feel makes it easy to unwind and enjoy the rhythm of island life.

Incredible spot. No air conditioning and quite warm in the late afternoon. Be sure to pull the blind and close the curtains. Also fridge could be colder. Get a cooler for the pool. But overall I think it is the most gorgeous ocean accessable spot I've seen in Hawaii. Sea Turtles were literaly under our balcony at night!

This was our second stay at Honokeana Cove, having stayed in another 3-bedroom unit two years ago. We loved the view of the ocean from 218 and looking down on as many as thirteen green sea turtles sunning on the shore below.We were greeted with a beautiful small table arrangement when we checked in, and found everything to be clean and in good working order. The kitchen was equipped with everything that we needed for cooking, except my grandchildren would’ve loved a waffle iron. The property manager, Ray, does an outstanding job of keeping the pool and grounds tidy. He is very friendly!Thank you for letting us stay. We hope to come again!

The grounds were immaculate, all staff friendly and knowledgeable.The warm pool was a great option for end of day socializing. Can’t wait to come back with the grandkids!

Beautiful Location

At the last minute, Napili Point cancelled our stay due to a plumbing leak. I had to scramble to find a new place. Boy, was I lucky to find Honokeana Cove! A great site located on the cove with easy access to beautiful fish and lots of turtles. Also had a large grass area to play or relax in the sun and a nice pool. Our condo unit was very nice, clean and looked right over the bay with turtles resting right below us in the afternoon. Definitely would love to return here again!

Lovely Condo in a beautiful setting

This is a very pleasant small condominium community in a beautiful area. There is a wonderful snorkeling area in the cove and a nice sandy beach within a short walking distance. The condo is comfortable and well appointed. Our only problem was that the number of beds was misstated in the VRBO listing. The manager was very accommodating and was able to provide us with an inflatable bed. The manager was very easy to work with.
