Sleeps 10, Great Ocean view condo at Papakea

Great ocean view, our condo is just 95 yards from the ocean.

Spacious 4th floor condo with large loft.

We completely remodeled the condo in March-June 2020. There is an entirely new kitchen, all new appliances, all new flooring, new paint, new beds and mattresses, new vanities. Pretty much everything was replaced except the tubs and toilets (and those will probably be replace in the next year or 2).

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS: There is a california king in the master, a queen in the 2nd bedroom, 2 bunkbeds upstairs in the loft with doubles on the bottom and twins on top and 2 air mattresses if needed. One of our teenage kids likes sleeping on the lounge chair on the lanai. That adds up to 12 (2 master, 2 2nd bed, 6 bunk beds, 1 on lanai, 1 (or 2) on air mattress(es)), which we don't care if you have that many people there but we advertise sleeps 10 because we feel like it it starts getting too crowded with more than 10. But different folks have different preferences when it comes to this.

Papakea has incredible ambiance, it is just like you hope Hawaii would be like. I can't stress this enough. Everybody seems to love Papakea.

Papakea Resort is truly the spirit of Old Hawaii. With 11 low-rise condo buildings scattered across 13 acres oceanfront acres, the Papakea Resort is one of the lowest density condominium resorts on the island. Unlike many other Maui resorts, it is set well back from the street, but is still conveniently close to grocery stores and restaurants. A convenience store, a full service grocery store, several coffee shops and a number of terrific casual restaurants are all within walking distance. The upscale shopping/restaurant venue of Whaler's Village is only a short 5 minute drive, with the charming village of Lahaina another 5-10 minutes further down the road. A few of the amenities on the property include 2 shuffleboard courts, 2 lighted tennis courts, 2 twelve hole putting greens, 2 pools, 2 whirlpool spas, 12 outdoor grills and 2 beach cabanas.

Our condo can seat 21 people for dinner - dining room table(6), kitchen bar(4), lanai table(6), lanai couch(2) and living room couch(3); but I admit that is a bit tight.

Please note: Papakea Resort charges a $17/day resort fee for the first 10 nights of your stay. This fee, which is collected directly by the front desk at the time of your stay, covers all resort amenities, including parking, wifi internet, cable, 24-hour security, onsite Expedia concierge, all resort amenities and activities - even a weekly mai tai party!

Both elevator and stairs are available.

Paradise in Maui
Overall our stay was amazing. The apartment was great, the stairs were a bit steep but the kids got used to it. The beds were very comfy (hubby wanted to take it home with us!!!). The location was fantastic. We saw a lot of turtles swimming past. It was a great base for road to Hana which was fun, Haleakala Observatory for sunset which was like you were on another planet. Close to Black Rock which our 5 yr old grandson snorkeled with some turtles. Overall we loved our stay at Papakea. Will definitely stay again.

Nice location & view
Overall, the location was nice in Kaanapali. The unit is older but spacious. There were nice accessories, such as towels and boogie boards, but they're very difficult in get to for use. In addition, the place has not been clean very well and there were cockroaches. I'm just being honest. Cleaning people were not doing a good job of getting the crumbs and the food from behind the refrigerator and the stove. The three separate air conditioners work very nicely. The balcony is nice. It's a great location with a great view at night time. It's just a little bit older and has a bug problem. I thought that the amenities such as soap and towels were minimal and not enough, given the fact that it's quite pricey. I expect a lot more amenities for the price. I will try some other listings in the future.

Beautiful spot
Papakea is a great location and great amenities. The staff who work for the resort were lovely and helpful. The condo could use some added amenities that we have come to expect from other rentals such as beach umbrella and a cooler would have been a great-to-have. The kitchen is as very stocked on things like pots and pans yet there were only 4 plastic bowls and cheese grater was broken. Some of the art is coming off the walls in the unit and the main bathtub needs some upkeep. The faucet is barely hanging on and bother the bath and shower we’re clogged. These issues were minor- we loved the space and number of beds was great for our size of group. Thank you for a great overall stay!

I can't say it enough, it was fantastic. We celebrated our 25th anniversary with our 5 children (ages 16-23), our sons significant other, my brother, sister in law and niece. Everything about this condo was spot on. We had 11 people ranging from 16-53 and there was more than enough room. A great view, great amenities and the host was quick to answer and fix the one problem we had with a blow up air mattress. The property was well maintained as were the grounds and pool. Thank You for an incredible adventure!

Whale watching wonderland
Papakea is a great place to chill and unwind. It is walkable to nice resorts bars and restaurants. The grounds are nice, the staff is attentive and it seems well taken care of. We went in March and could pull up a chair and watch humpbacks breaching a short way off the shoreline. It does not have a great beach but nice ones are very close and the pools are next to the ocean. The only way it would be better is if it would convert one of the two beach huts into a small place where you could get a snack or beverage

Christmas at Papakea!
This was a great location for our family Christmas. We had plenty of room to gather for group meals and the location was lovely. The remodeled areas of the condo were very nice and the grounds at Papakea were well-kept. The owner was easy to communicate with and the staff at Papakea was friendly and helpful. We had only two minor complaints about the condo. First the bathrooms have only been partially renovated which means the shower areas are not in terrific shape. In addition the stairs to the loft are very steep so you would not want small children or older adults using that area. Otherwise, G403 was just what we were looking for!
