Hale Kai # 101

Aloha and welcome to Hale Kai # 101

Beautiful oceanfront two bedroom condo with king bed, two twin beds and sleeper sofa that can accommodate up to six people. The condo was fully remodeled and refurnished in 2014. The condo is located literally on the beach and adjacent to a park. Unit #101 is located on the ground floor and enjoys direct ocean views. The complex features a pool, laundry facilities, parking and barbecues. The complex is across the street from a farmer’s market and several small restaurants.

We invite you to view the reef fish at low tide in the early morning…play in the ocean, snorkel or swim with the sea turtles. The inviting beach just outside our condo is perfect for building sand castles, relaxing with a favorite book or enjoying the beauty and peacefulness of “Old Hawaii”.

We are located in the small community of Honokowai in West Maui and are just minutes from the world-famous Kaanapali Beach, Kapalua and Napili Bay as well as the historic town of Lahaina. Honokowai has some of the best weather in Maui. World-class golf courses are located nearby.

  Fantastic experience. View is unbeatable. Fell asleep to the waves every night. Saw whales breaching from the Lanai. Easy short drive to Lahaina and Kapalua and great nearby amenities like Pau Bakery and Bad *** Coffee. The pool and BBQ are pretty wanky and there is no spa, but the unit was clean and well maintained. There are laundry facilities if you need them and parking is super easy. If you are looking for something quiet and relaxing this is the place. If you want the mega-resort feel, go somewhere else.

  Jessica D from Mount Vernon, WA recommends this vacation rental

  We couldn't have been happier with the location and layout of the condo. Steps to the beach and pool and park, and beautiful sunset views with sea turtles swimming around. Walking distance to grocery & fresh fish take-out and a very short drive to many beaches and restaurants.
  Included great beach amenities such as beach towels, chairs and a cooler. Kitchen amenities were a little lacking (no salt and pepper or olive oil, and nothing to store leftovers.)
  Both the unit and property were very clean.
  The tv and Wi-Fi weren't working properly but the manager solved that for us quickly. A few lights were out but we let the manager know at the end of our stay and I'm sure they fixed it.
  We would highly recommend for a small family who wants a more laid back vacation away from the mega resorts.

  Paul W recommends this vacation rental

  This was our second time staying at Hale Kai, specifically #101. We loved the idea of being right on the water. The condo itself is very clean and comfortable. The property grounds were very well maintained and welcoming. The pool location is to die for, providing the best sunset and whale watching views you could ask for. There is also laundry facilities on property which came in handy. As advertised, everything needed as far as cooking and meal prep was provided. This made it very convenient as we made at least one meal in the condo daily. The coffee maker allowed us to have fresh coffee ready upon waking up every morning. The location of the complex for us was perfect. It wasn't in amongst all the huge resorts and huge crowds of people,but they were within walking distance. We preferred the serenity Hale Kai provided. It was very convenient as far as proximity to the grocery store and a few eateries as well as a snorkel rental shop and a farmers market among other establishments. These were all within a half mile easy walk. The bus stop is also literally right next to the complex. We took the bus almost daily either to Downtown Lahaina or up to Kapalua for the coastal hiking trail. The management, particularly Melody, was there every step of the way regarding our reservation. She kept us updated whenever needed and was very responsive if we had any questions. We never worried knowing she was on top of everything. We would definitely recommend Hale Kai to friends and family alike. In fact, I just told a coworker about Hale Kai and he is very interested. We will always stay at this property whenever visiting Maui

  We stayed in the condo for a week in Sept. with our two young ones. The condo was perfect! They ran out through the lanai every morning to play in the waves and hunt for shells. The kitchen has all the amenities, the bathroom is a nice size, and the beds are very comfortable. Lots of ceiling fans and a perfect cross breeze kept the temperature cool at night. The pool came in handy when the ocean waves got a bit too big.

We cooked all our breakfasts and a few dinners, the kitchen was well equipped. The beds were comfortable, we all slept well. First morning when I woke up at 5:30am, my first thought was to go back to bed, and then I saw the view from those wonderful large windows and made some coffee and enjoyed.

  Ahlam A from Tampa, FL recommends this vacation rental

  I thought this would be too good to be true. First time renting through VRBO. They property description is accurate. The location is perfect, near a main road, Bad *** Coffee (Best Coffee I've had, made right in Hawaii) and Farmers market (amazing food and Smoothies) are right across the street. A children's park and beach right steps from the unit. The views were amazing. Unit was clean and had everything we needed, from kitchen, cleaning and beach supplies. We received a beach bucket filled with masks, Hawaiian coffee, chocolate, postcards pictures of the unit, and Map. They only things I had a problem with was not having the Wifi password and no AC. They gave instructions and details on everything about the unit but somehow I didn't see anything about the Wifi access. We were gone most of the day so it didn't bother us too much. But as soon as we reached out about it they responded right away. They were very prompt on returning emails. And as far as the AC, we were there during a time when the weather was perfect, we just opened up the windows and doors. I'm not sure how it would feel during summer or hotter days. All in all this was a great place to stay, when I go back I will definitely try to stay there again.

  We loved our stay at the Hale Kai! The location was great and the people are so welcoming and friendly. Our condo was beautiful, with amazing views, a big kitchen with lots of counter space, and right on the ocean. We loved falling asleep every night to the sound of the waves crashing against the shore.
  The grounds are well kept and include a nice pool, 2 gas grills (very nice ones) that are cleaned daily, easy access to 2 little beaches on either side of the condos, and nice laundry facilities.
  The whale watching from our lanai was incredible! Other activities we enjoyed were snorkeling, the road to Hana, dinner at Mama's Fish House, Captain Steve's whale watching tour, hunting for sea glass, the outdoor farmer's market across the street, and the food. The food on Maui is amazing! Some favorites were: Star Noodle, Miso Phat, The Mill House, Mala's, Fleetwood's, Leoda's for pie, Kimo's, Okazuya, the Fish Market, and of course, Mama's Fish House.
  3 must-haves for Maui: a good pair of binoculars (for whale watching from the lanai), lots of $$$, and a sense of adventure (but don't try and fit everything into one trip).
  We're already booked again for next year and can't wait to go back!

The staff was wonderful. The property was well maintained. I would recommend to everyone. The thing I liked most was, because of the kind of property it was, it felt like I lived in Maui, not just visiting.

  What an awesome place! I can’t say much more than that. The location (of the unit) was ideal with panoramic views of the ocean, and the part of town that it is located in is super cute - with the park right next door and the market, coffee shop and other stores just across the street. The pool is perfect for a dip, the barbecues were always “like new” when we used them (most every day) and there was never a problem getting a parking spot. The Murphy bed turned out to be a great extra so our boys could have “their own” rooms, and all of the necessary kitchen gadgets and appliances were provided. It was nice to be able to do laundry also, and the on-site coin opp was super convenient. We will definitely try to get this same unit (101) the next time we stay on Maui! Great find!

  It would have been better if the bedrooms had A/C. Coming from TX to Maui where the temps are hot in both locations are not a good idea. Enjoyed the ocean except for the rocks. Got bruised pretty bad so would not recommend to a friend if access to the ocean was important. Nice place to stay and very well equipped which was great.

  This was our 2nd year staying on the property (same unit). We love the location of Hale Kai; close to town but not too close, nice private beaches, beautiful pool on site. The property itself is kept in pristine condition. The management company on site is organized and very professional. We will definitely be back.

  Loved condo #101 right at the edge of the ocean and also bordering a local park. We had so much fun watching the waves from our lanai, as well as people-watching in the park. Beautifully updated and decorated unit just as the photos show. Such a lovely and intimate, relaxed condominium complex. Many of the people staying seem to come regularly and/or know each other, and very friendly to new faces showing up to the pool or BBQ's. We LOVED this place and hope to return someday.

  Some of the small appliances are pretty worn out ie the toaster is not functioning properly toasting only one side of the bread. A fry pan that is better quality so it sits flat on the burner. Current pans are warped on the bottom. Higher quality of bedding. Better knives
  We love staying there and have booked next year. Thank you

  Barbara T from Shoreline, WA recommends this vacation rental

  This is my second year in unit 101 and my 14th year at the Hale Kai. We stayed here again because of the view, two bedrooms, and ground floor adjacent to the lovely park. Again we had some frustration with the floor plan. There is really no comfortable place to watch TV, and there are two TV's in the living room, and no indoor table except an eating bar with uncomfortable backless bar stools. We had some initial trouble with flying insects which the management reluctantly took care of. Our visit was fun because of the warm aloha spirit of all the guests, many who have been returning for 20 plus years. The beds were very comfortable and I always sleep well listening to the surf. I also love swimming in the ocean and there is a good small swimming beach right there. If the surf is too rough, the pool is nice to swim in. A good coffee shop and the farmers market is just a short walk across the park. We love watching the little local children play in the park, especially on the weekends and there is usually at least one large birthday party on the weekends in the park.

She takes care of business. Thank you Valerie! We're all lucky to have you. Everyone from the cleaners to the grounds team are attentive and pleasant. Thank you all. We will be back! Mahalo

  Tifni B from West Kelowna, BC recommends this vacation rental

  We had a great time in Hale Kai 101. We were blown away by the view every time we were in the kitchen or on the lanai. Our 3 young kids loved being so close to the beach and playground. There are calm tidal pools right outside our back door and every morning the kids would swim in it and build sand castles. We saw many sea turtles right from our kitchen window. Beds were comfortable, sheets were very soft. There were a lot of towels, including beach towels.
  
  Because it’s literal ocean front, you will hear loud waves crashing all night long. When the swell was high, the waves literally sprayed our windows. So if you need silence to sleep, bring ear plugs. I’m so glad we stayed here a week, but glad we didn’t stay longer just because the waves actually kept me awake. What a problem :P
  
  The kitchen is superb, loved making meals in it. Only downside is it took away from the living room, so the living room is awkward, with the TV above the couch - we had to move furniture around every time we wanted to watch TV and then move it back when we were done. Not the greatest “lay down and relax” at the end of the day set-up.
  
  Overall, we loved it!

  We love staying at the Hale Kai !!
  This year the unit was clean upon arrival but noticed the top of refrigerator was very filthy with built up dust and grease
  If I could hope for any improvement it would be master bed bedding. Sheets are very thin. I know that is minimal
  I also wish for a better frypan that would sit in the stovetop solidly instead of only half on the burner. The toaster doesn't toast all the bread on all sides. One of the elements is out. Newer coffee maker? New bedspread in master?
  Thank you. We are back next year and can't wait!!!

    I am so sorry you had any problems during your stay. I wish you would have conveyed them to me as I have new toasters, coffee pots, fry pan etc in my office.

Unit 101 is uniquely located to have the best view possible of he ocean, sky, and islands. We saw many whales and turtles. Because the unit is adjacent to the park, there is no building right next door she the open expense of grass is lovely.

  Overall we were very happy with our stay.
  Several things that could be improved upon... the wireless internet was not good at all. We stay for a month, and need to do business during this time, it was very frustrating how slow the internet was. The only other item is that the kitchen is very hot. There is no air moving in there, it would benefit from a ceiling fan or even a rotating fan to not have heat stroke when cooking.
  We love the place, love sharing with our friends, and can't wait to come again!

  We loved our time in unit #101. The unit was beautifully remoldeled and everything was like new. We arrived late on the first night so we weren't able to apreciate the view from our lani till the next morning. When we did wake the next morning our teenaged daughter was up before us; around 5:45, in awe of the view.
  The beach was literally feet from the Lani as well. There were no less than three turtles eating off the rocks every afternoon, I was even able snorkel out a short distance and swim with one, among hundreds of other beautiful fish as well.
  
  We would defiantly recommend Hale Kai #101, you won't be disappointed

  This condo really is one of the best in the complex! It has just been remodeled so everything was perfect. The ocean is 10ft from the condo; whale watching and sea turtles. The pool was about 50ft away. Staff was friendly. Laundry room with clothes line and books to borrow. Farmers market. My teenagers were able to walk to pizza and gelato and pedicure and massage and souvenir shopping.
  
  If I had to give the "bad".... There is a slotted bathroom door which doesn't give a very "private" feel. And the condo is right next to the park. We had NO trouble and it felt safe, but again, not very private....
  
  I would absolutely recommend this condo!!

  An amazing location steps from the ocean. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves at night, swimming with the turtles during the day. The open space of the park next door is a nice buffer, and the markets across the street were convenient and had some good foods. There's a great cross-breeze to keep the place cool. The property is a little older, but the unit has been updated. The modern kitchen has all the tools for making meals to enjoy on the lanai. I liked how the closet was well-stocked with water toys, snorkel gear, ice chest. Plus replacement light bulbs and extra towels. Even has a folding table and chairs to set up at the park. The flashlight was nice to have for spying on the beach crabs, geckos and cane toads at night! And the herb garden on the wall outside was a nice touch. As for Hale Kai, we enjoyed meeting some of the long-term residents and blowing the conch shell at sunset. The BBQs work great, and the pool is clean and refreshing. The office staff is very friendly. The laundry room/library/recycling area is kept clean. Parking was never a problem - every unit gets a spot so it works out fine. We were very relaxed and the kids had the best experience getting to know the island.

  Kim H from Estacada, Or recommends this vacation rental

  We have stayed at the Hale Kai several times over the past 28 years. I visited with my parents as a child and now my husband and family. We love the Hale Kai.
  This past trip we wanted to rent 101 for the whole two weeks when I initiated reservations in August 2012. At that time i was told 101 was only available for 5 days so i took it and booked 102 for the remainder. In late February i was online and noticed 101 had opened for 6 more days. I phoned to ask to take those additional days and was told i could not change my reservation within 60 days without a charge. Then there was another charge for staying in 102 less than 5 days. I just felt the policy was very unflexible to make the accomodation since it was my original request to stay in 101 as long as possible. and it sat empty from the day we left until 6 days later. Frustrating and silly! Thank you, Kim Hikade--looking forward to my next trip to the Hale Kai !!! ps--the place looks better than ever too

  Vincenzo & Brandi S from San Francisco, CA recommends this vacation rental

  We've been coming the same time each year for 12 years. It was our 8 year old's 9th trip. The housecleaning service was quite poor. The unit's large windows were not clean and the unit itself was not very clean. The cleaning mid trip was very sloppy and we know the cleaning lady and tipped her. If it was my property I would be quite unhappy with how unclean it is being kept. Valerie in property mgt. is fantastic. She is so responsive and helpful. We come because the same friends have been coming for 30 and 40 years and our daughter is like a grandchild to them. We want to keep coming each year but if people our age come for the first time the units have to be clean so they'll want to come back.

  • Manager Responded on 2/18/2013

    Aloha Brandi & Vincenzo I am very dissappointed about your comments. I am responsible for the housekeeping and you never once said anything to me. I can not correct what I do not know about. I am sorry your expectation were not met. It is a great unit with a view you can not get much better or closer to the ocean. The owners remodeled the kitchen and bath in 2012, they bought new beds and a very large flat screen TV and take great pride in their unit. I am sure they will find this review unsettleing. To the owners I say I am confused by the guests. Mahalo Valerie

  We love Hale Kai and 101 is the best location of all the units. We like the improvements that have been made in the last couple of years. The only thing missing was a pair of binoculars to watch the whales.

  • Manager Responded on 2/12/2013

    Mahalo for your kind words! We liked your suggestion regarding the binoculars - great idea! Looking forward to your return next year. Aloha, Carolyn and Kathy, owners

  The location of this condo was perfect. It was quiet and peaceful. The only interruptions was the noise of the surf and the lookouts for whales, sea turtles, and monk seals. The place was even better than the pictures. I'm sure we'll be back again! Aloha!

    Aloha Kathy So glad you enjoyed your time at Hale Kai. Look forward to seeing you again. Mahalo Valerie

  We had a wonderful seven day stay at #101 Hale Kai. The view from our sitting room and patio was astounding. The turtles frolicked in the waves just off our patio. The condo was well equipped. The location great with a farmers market and gourmet coffee shop right across the street.

  • Manager Responded on 1/17/2013

    Aloha Robert Our location is just one of the great thing about Hale Kai. Our Honokowai Turtles have their own web site and are kept track of. They feed off our property along the reefs so they are here on and off all day. Mahalo for staying with us at Hal Kai Valerie

  Heather T from Anchorage, AK recommends this vacation rental

  The location can't be beat, and the pool is lovely. Unit 101 has wonderful views of the ocean.
  
  Unit 101 could use a bit of maintenance. Some paint is peeling, the coffee maker didn't always work, and the twin beds were just downright uncomfortable. A memory foam topper was present in the master bedroom, which made that bed very comfortable; similar toppers for the twin beds would be nice--or just get new mattresses. Also, a number of the jalousie blinds on the park side of the unit were broken (the plastic frames for the glass were cracked, so the glass was slipping out). The VCR didn't work (so we couldn't watch the movies available), although the DVD player worked just fine. Finally, although the kitchen and bathroom have been updated recently, the rest of the furnishings are quite dated. It has the potential to be a spectacular rental, if only a little TLC and cash are invested into the unit.
  
  Aside from these issues, we had a great stay. The property management is great, the location is great, and it is a good value for the price you pay compared to other spots on Maui. This was our third time to Hale Kai, and we will likely come visit again.

  • Manager Responded on 11/26/2012

    Mahalo for your review ~ we always enjoy hearing from our guests! Glad you liked our new Cal King sized bed with the topper - we love it too! We'll check on the comfy level of the twin beds - thanks for the heads up. We periodically replace the tropical furniture to keep our condo fresh and inviting. The current collection celebrates Maui's famous red dirt with rust, brown and orange hues while the miniature palm tree pattern in the fabric mimics the abundant number of palms close by. We've just purchased a 42" flat screen TV and a Blue Ray DVD-CD player . . . nice additions to our unit. Glass jalousies do occasionally slip out of their holders - unfortunately it happens - we're sorry for the inconvenience. It has been fixed. You're so right - the location and views speak volumes. Glad you enjoyed your stay! Aloha, Carolyn & Kathy, owners

  Joanna M from Sebastopol, CA recommends this vacation rental

  Unit 101 was perfect for us...easy backdoor access to a great beach, ocean sounds and breezes filtering through a multitude of louvered windows, friendly staff - as well as neighbors. As a family who prefers casual and active over formal and frou-frou we really couldn't have been happier. Plenty of space, daylight, amenities etc without any of the claustrophobic high-rise jet-set mentality (which is where you'll find sterile boredom!). For us, this was Maui/Hawaii at its best....not to mention the location is brilliant for going back and forth from west to south etc. Fabulous stay - I hope we'll be back some day...
