WHALE Watching & OCEAN Views! Honua Kai Penthouse- Top Floor- Remodeled June'24

West Maui is open and we are happy to host you! Honua Kai Resort is a hotel/resort zoned and you are safe from the new legislation targeting other short term rentals.

Maui Paradise: Oceanfront Condo with Stunning Views and Whale Watching at Hokulani 749

Welcome to Hokulani 749 at Honua Kai Resort & Spa
We are thrilled to introduce you to our newly remodeled penthouse suite, Hokulani 749, located at the award-winning Honua Kai Resort & Spa. We purchased this stunning unit in May 2024 and decided to completely remodel it before making it available to guests. The transformation, inspired by a modern beach house aesthetic, features exquisite designer touches and luxurious finishes throughout.

As owners at Honua Kai since 2017, we’ve had the pleasure of hosting hundreds of guests and earning over 100 five-star reviews on our other listings. We’re excited to offer you the same exceptional experience at Hokulani 749.

1. What We Love About the Property

Hokulani 749 is one of the best units on the property, boasting arguably the best direct and unobstructed beach and ocean view of any 2-bedroom condo at Honua Kai. Positioned on the top floor with no palm trees or other obstructions (like Duke's Restaurant) to block the view, you’ll enjoy breathtaking vistas of the ocean and golden sunsets, all from the comfort of your condo. With its prime location one unit away from the last condo at the "49 stack" in the Hokulani tower the views are absolutely unrivaled.

Kitchen: The gourmet kitchen is a showstopper with its brand-new designer water drop pendants, top-of-the-line appliances, and all the cookware and dishes you need to prepare your meals. Whether you're whipping up breakfast before a beach day or crafting a gourmet dinner, you'll love the convenience and beauty of the kitchen. It’s also stocked with a Vitamix blender, coffee maker, and BBQ tools to ensure you have everything for your stay.

Views & Whales: You'll spend hours mesmerized by the expansive views of the ocean and coastline. If you're visiting during whale season (December through April), you're in for a treat! Watch humpback whales breaching and playing in the waters just beyond the shore. It’s a magical experience that’s sure to leave a lasting impression.

Luxurious Remodel: The condo has just undergone a complete remodel in May 2024, with a fresh, contemporary style that blends modern design with island charm. New luxury plank flooring, fresh decorator white paint with accent walls in soft Antinori Blue, and a locally sourced Monkeypod waterfall dining table are just a few of the standout features. The Samsung wall-mounted TVs (65” in the living room and 55” in the second bedroom) and brand-new ceiling fans keep things comfortable while adding a touch of sophistication.

2. What We Love About Maui

Maui is a magical place that offers something for everyone, whether you’re looking to relax on the beach, explore the island’s natural wonders, or immerse yourself in local culture. Here’s what we love about Maui:

Scenic Beauty: From the dramatic landscapes of Haleakalā to the lush rainforest along the Road to Hana, Maui’s beauty is unparalleled. Spend your days hiking through national parks, relaxing on pristine beaches, or enjoying the stunning views on the scenic drives.

Outdoor Adventures: Maui is a playground for adventure enthusiasts. Go snorkeling at Molokini Crater, try your hand at surfing, take a sunset boat ride, or go zip-lining through the trees. There are also endless hiking trails and plenty of places to explore by bike.

Island Culture: The Aloha spirit is alive on Maui, and we love the opportunity to share it with our guests. Enjoy traditional Hawaiian music, dance, and fresh island cuisine. Don’t forget to explore the charming shops, art galleries, and local markets for a taste of island life.

3. What We Love About Booking Through Us

Booking with us offers a personalized, guest-focused experience that you won’t find elsewhere. Here’s why:

Convenience & Extras: We provide essential amenities like laundry pods, starter toiletries, and a pack-n-play and mini high chair for families traveling with little ones. You'll also enjoy access to the resort’s pool towel program, Wi-Fi throughout the property, and underground parking for one vehicle (with valet parking available for a second car).

Exceptional Experience: With our over 100 five-star reviews, we pride ourselves on providing a memorable and seamless experience for our guests. You can trust that we’ll go above and beyond to make sure your Maui getaway is as special as possible.
