So Wonderful, Just Tough To Sleep With Outside Noise
We loved the condo, the warm pool on the property, and swimming with sea turtles and incredible fish right in the bay. We loved hikes to sandy beaches. Our only concern was that we had no AC and so we needed to keep windows open and we could hear the neighbors, the loud birds, the garbage disposal truck picking up trash, and the cars driving by. This made it tough for some of us to sleep at night.

AMAZING visit!
Our family had THE BEST time staying here! The condo was clean, well-located, and had an amazing view overlooking the cove. We had the absolute honor of getting to see (from a distance) sea turtles who had come by to sleep on the shore. The hosts were very commutative, we had a very small hiccup getting into the home initially but they were extremely responsive and were able to help us out quickly! Highly recommend!

Great Location
This was our first time to Maui and we weren't familiar with the different areas, but were told by friends to stay in Napili Bay. When I went to book, this place was quite a bit more than other places somewhat nearby. Having not experienced any of the other properties, I can't compare, but I can say, we are very happy this is where we landed.The little cove that's right down stairs was not only the perfect view from the unit, but we swam with the turtles there, almost every day of our stay.While we did drive to other parts of the west side, quite a bit, we also walked to the nearby restaurants and beaches in Napili and loved the surrounding town so much.The kitchen amenities in this unit are great and there is a good amount of space with the 3 bedrooms. With 6 people there's not room for everyone sit in the living room and watch a movie, but that's ok, the kids usually went to their rooms when it was time to relax anyway.The only thing we weren't prepared for was the lack of toiletries. While there was a small travel size shampoo/conditioner in the bathroom, that wouldn't have suficed for 6 people, for 10 days. We were also only left a couple roles of toilet paper, so had to purchase toilet paper at the store. This may have just been an oversignt by the cleaning crew, but when traveling, these are usually provided.Our only critism of the property is that's it's very dusty. At surface level things are clean, but fans, doors, etc. are extremely built up with dust.

All that is advertised and more
Honokeana Cove did not disappoint. It is a very short walk to Napili Bay, and the cove is overflowing with turtles. During the late afternoon, the rocks of the cove are littered with large turtles sunning themselves. It is a little tricky getting down into the cove, but the snorkeling was worth the trip. It is in a good location, not fare from markets and shops. The unit itself was very lovely and comfortable. The pool was also very well maintained and we found ourselves lounging in the pool in the late day hours recounting the days adventures. Definitely would recommend.

Turtles turtles turtles We have stayed in the villas at the ridge multiple times. We have trekked to the beaches and bays to swim sun snorkel. This was out first time at the Turtle Cove. The condo is a perfect home base well equipped and appointed. The front room is a very airy breeze cool relaxing retreat. By 7 am the street it faces is busy but we wear ear plugs so it never bothered us. The second bedroom was perfect for my son and the two rooms are divide by a nicely remodeled bathroom. The loft up stairs had three twin beds and its own bathroom. That provided extra room for my daughter and her guest. They slept cool, quietly, and away from morning sun rise. The kitchen has spice rack salt pepper vinegar and full pots pans lots of glasses and plates silverware. Even a Ninja blender! The rental comes with beach towels and beautiful near full view of the cove and relaxing space on the balcony. The living room could seat more and you can stream all apps via their remote or we used a connected laptop. The rental also comes with some beach chairs and a few things to enjoy the sand and some snorkel masks but we brought many of our own snorkels gear. The star of the rental is the cove and how we easily went out and explored saw turtles by the dozen swimming or sun bathing on rocks every day! The owner is very responsive and early in the rental week sent full instructions. He was kind and hosted well out stay. The entire place has some owners on site or frequently vi

Turtles and teens
The floor plan was perfect for us. The 3 bed loft with bathroom made life with 3 teenage girls a breeze. The 2 downstairs bedrooms offered private retreats for my husband and myself and my son and daughter-in-law. Snorkeling in the cove was some of the best I have experienced. Beautiful fish and turtles everywhere. Our host was very informative and helpful. In fact, we couldn't seem to get the coffee maker to work and he offered to ask someone on island to find one for us! If we return to Maui would stay there again.

Family vacation
We loved this small and friendly condo development. It was so much nicer than the other surrounding properties which are large and impersonal. The property is beautifully maintained (gardens, pool, and community BBQ are spotless). The cove is a lovely spot to snorkel or paddle board so long as the water is calm. Napili beach is a short walk away with a wonderful swimming beach.

Family friendly place!
We were having a wonderful time at this family friendly place. Easy walk to beaches and the cove had the best snorkeling. We saw lots of turtles. Sadly, our stay got interrupted by the horrific wind gusts and devastating fires on Maui. We had to evacuate. We would definitely return to this place in the future. The owners were so accommodating and very communicative.

Such a delight!
Our stay at Honokeana Cove was absolutely wonderful! Graham & Carrie were wonderful hosts & quick to answer any questions I had (& I had a few)☺️ The condo unit was spacious, we had 5 adults & our 1 year old granddaughter with us. It was very clean & nicely updated. The cove, which is steps away from the condo was so much fun to cool off in and see an abundance of turtles and fish. DO NOT, & I repeat DO NOT hesitate to book this unit. You won’t regret it! Thanks Graham & Carrie for a wonderful stay. We will most definitely be back! Mahalo, Meadows Family

Best Vacation EVER
We loved our stay! The condo was beautiful and renovations were fabulous! The little community was quiet and well maintained. The cove had the best snorkeling around. You don’t have to go beyond your front steps to see such abundance in sea life! The resident turtles were our favorite! The groundskeeper was diligent about maintaining the pool, lawn and grills daily! The tiki torches each night were a quaint touch as well! We have 2 young children and an older child/adult and there was something for everyone! We rented a paddle board and life jackets from a local company and they even deliver on site! Also, you can walk to The Gazebo for an amazing breakfast (go early the line is crazy after they open). Napili beach is a short walk as well and a perfect little beach to enjoy! Napili Market was perfect for our last minute snacks, drinks or poke bowls! We are already planning our next trip! Thank you for sharing your hidden gem in Maui!!!

The property was as described. Nicely decorated and clean. The location was perfect for snorkeling! Our 3 children snorkeled daily and enjoyed seeing the sea turtles. There are also other good spots within walking distance as well as hikes and restaurants. As other reviews stated, you can hear noise from the road in one of the bedrooms. The lack of AC was not an issue at night with the windows open. The grounds were well maintained and the pool was clean. We would definitely recommend the property to others.

Loved Honokeana Cove
Our family of 5 stayed in this condo for 5 nights in April. We just loved the cozy space; the updated finishes; the views from the large lanai; the wonderful outdoor spaces - especially the virtually private cove, pool and lovely green space; and the location. It is a very quiet, friendly and family-oriented condo community. It was a short walk to many places (just be prepared there aren't always sidewalks). There is onsite parking available, but the lot is a little tricky if you have a minivan. We would come back here to stay again for sure!

Updated large corner unit on an exquisite piece of Maui.
The location on a private Cove, close to shopping, beaches and other attractions is wonderful. Turtles! The sunsets are breathtaking. The unit is tastefully decorated, with comfy towels and beds. Large windows for beautiful views. Great communication with hosts. Note: there is NO AIR CONDITIONING. It was pretty stifling when we first arrived; we opened all the windows and turned on the nice big ceiling fans to get a breeze. The loft stayed a bit warm, the rest was comfortable, but with the windows always open, you can hear traffic and roosters, and the neighbors let you know if you're talking too loudly during quiet hours.
