Beautiful Ground Floor Gem with Ocean View

50% Discount March-July 31st st due to construction close to condo. Noise only between the hours of 9:00-4:00 and no work on weekends. Perfect if you are out and about during the day and then want to enjoy late afternoon relaxation and prepare for spectacular sunsets.

Aloha! As proud new owners since 2020, we held our breath until a Papakea unit became available. We are thrilled to share our West Maui paradise with you.

Conveniently located on the ground floor of the G building, this corner unit guarantees extra light, cross breezes and an ocean view from the living area and the lanai. You are steps away from all the resort has to offer.

This resort has everything you could ask for: a haven of low-rise buildings surrounded by expansive lawns, lush gardens, koi ponds, and, of course, its spectacular oceanfront location. The resort has free parking, two heated pools, large Jacuzzis, multiple gas BBQ's located by the pool areas, meticulously groomed putting greens, 2 shuffleboard courts and lighted tennis and pickle ball courts. Included in your resort stay is access to many free activities: water aerobics, yoga, lei making, free weekly Mai-Tai Party, and concierge services. Be sure to check the schedule at check in.

Our condo has is a welcoming home base. Mini-split air conditioning allows for comfortable temperatures throughout. The kitchen and bathroom are fully equipped and a washer and dryer is available for your convenience. Enjoy a king sized bed, a new pull out sofa sleeper, a Bose speaker with Bluetooth/Alexa capabilities, the use of a 42" flat screen TV with DVD player in the living room, and a 32" flat screen TV in the bedroom, both with cable. WIFI is also available

For your outside enjoyment, we provide beach towels, beach chairs, beach umbrella, some snorkel gear, a cooler, boogie boards, golf balls and putters. For inside entertainment we provide puzzles, games and welcome the give and take of books.

Sand beaches are within walking distance and you can snorkel directly in front of the resort, swim with fish and sea turtles or simply lounge while whale watching or enjoy picture perfect sun sets.

Just south of the resort is an easy walk through the Kaanapali, Lahaina, and Kapalua resort areas where you are welcome to enjoy their beaches and proximity to shops and fine dining. Gentle trade winds will accompany you on the boardwalk along Kaanapali beach all the way to Black Rock. If you are excited to take advantage of ocean outings, a short drive to Lahaina is the launching area for deep sea fishing, whale watching tours, snorkeling cruises, and sailing adventures. Back closer to home, just across the street from Papakea are shops, restaurants and Times Supermarket for all your grocery needs.

Whether one of the numerous returning guests under the previous owners, or a brand new guest, our goal is to ensure your stay in our condo meets your needs and expectations. We want your stay to be hassle free and fun filled.

* Though we generally have a 5 day minimum, we welcome inquiries for shorter stays.

Beautiful Maui Escape

We came to Maui to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. Our stay was absolutely perfect! We were close to the sea wall where we saw whales and watched the sun go down every night!! The pool was just outside our room where we enjoyed the hot tub every evening The room was stocked with everything we needed to make our stay convenient and comfortable. We will for sure be back!!

Although we were there for work, it was also the perfect vacation. The unit was beautifully located, super clean and was stocked with everything that we could have ever needed. In addition to the sparkling ocean right there and the grocery, food trucks and restaurants just across the street, the Papakea complex offers water aerobics, lei making, yoga and even a mai tai night. We met many people that we will keep in touch with. Thanks Marielle and Kris!

Home Away From Home in Lahaina

Hi ya'll Grandson Mason and I just returned to our homes in Louisiana. It is 11am on 8/7 - one week ago we headed your way to Maui. It is hard to believe a week has gone by - but it has! and is was a GRAND Adventure indeed, for both Mason and myself. Thank you for wonderful accommodations. The location was surreal and the condo literally felt like home with all the amenities - our experience and your hospitality will always be remembered. God Bless and we hope to visit G108 again in the future. Much Love, Pam Hughes aka: MawMaw

Best of everything

Beautiful, well maintained, well stocked condo on the first floor. Almost as close to the ocean front and views nearly the same as in the ocean front units we've previously stayed in. It was fun to stay near the pool and get a resort view too. Everything in the unit worked. It had just about everything you could need while away from home to prepare a meal, and it was a great place for chatting with other condo owners and vacationers and making new friends. The unit was very very clean which was very important to us. There is a 3 ring binder that tells how everything works, and gives some ideas about what to see and do around the island, places to eat, etc. We recommend this condo!

Wonderful place for family vacation!

The resort is beautiful and very well-maintained. This unit was the perfect location for going to the pool, beach, shuffleboard, and putting greens. They have diligent staff cleaning the pools, BBQs, and community areas consistently, and the unit itself is well-equipped with everything you need for the pool or for snorkeling/exploring the beach. The kitchen also was well-stocked with pans, utensils, etc. which made meals at the room very easy. The resort is located near many walkable restaurants, as well.

60TH Celebration

My husband and I had a wonderful time celebrating my 60th at the Papakea Resort! The condo is well taken care of and very clean!!! Pictures are exactly what the condo looks like but they can't give you that awe inspiring feeling you experience once your standing inside looking out at the view this condo has to offer! The condo is well equipped in the kitchen, beach gear for up to 4 people and washer/dryer! We spent a great deal of time on the resort property and had a most relaxing time in Maui! There are several options to find food, groceries and gifts items all with in walking distance from the condo! We couldn't have asked for anything more! Can't wait to go back! Thank you Marielle

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
For over 20 years we had the luxury of taking advantage of the use of a family condo on Sanibel Island, Florida. The decision to sell it was not easy but it opened us up to explore properties closer to home in the San Francisco Bay Area. We are a family of three with a teen daughter and almost too many mini-dachshunds. We run a family business together and deal with the stresses of life by knowing we have a vacation home to retreat to.

Why they chose this property

We looked at four of the islands before deciding that Maui was our home away from home. As we began our search for a condo, we at first we thought that a large, expansive interior with more than one bedroom would trump any other need. That was until we found the resort at Papakea . It's location can not be beat, the amenities of the resort offer a expanded vacation experience, the staff are genuinely friendly, the property is beautifully maintained and because it is a smaller, low-rise complex there is a feeling of community.

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
