"Home in Paradise
The location of the Hale Kai Oceanfront Condominiums is fantastic, right on the ocean with a park right next to you. We would like to thank both Valeries who work in the office, they were wonderful. They helped with booking our reservation, staying in contact, providing helpful tips, and being available onsite to answer questions, provide guidance, and help me locate my lost watch. We loved our unit 215. The unit had updated kitchen appliances, bathroom, and the owners did a beautiful job of decorating. David, who maintains the property grounds, does an incredible job keeping it beautiful and appealing. We think of everyone at the Hale Kai as family and we look forward to returning soon."

"A Little Piece of Paradise
Hale Kai is a hidden gem. This was our 7th time to Maui and by far Hale Kai was the best spot. Beach front, small, intimate, warm & welcoming.
The unit (215) was clean and had everything you could ask for. We loved the added touches of laundry pods, coffee, treats, post cards...just a really nice touch."

"Lahaina Firestorm stay.
We arrived the day of the firestorm. It was WINDY coconuts were falling on the road. We had no electricity or communication and worst no propane (we heard that they've been out of propane for 2 wks) residents were preparing their food going down to the BBQ to find out there was no way to cook their food- We had to toss eggs & shrimp etc. Thankfully Latino mkt opened Wednesday and we got 2 cans of bean, tortilla, cheese to make a burrito which was our only meal on Wed & Thurs - We weren't able to do any of the tourist things & understandably not at no fault of Hale Kai. Don the Mgr? at the condos was as helpful as he could be. The radio kept saying for road conditions go to but that was impossible with NO internet. Don would pass on what he heard. We got a flight out on Friday morning. So please take this into consideration when you read my answers to the question. We weren't able to go anywhere. Luckily the people where nice & the place/view was comforting. I'm sure any other time I'd give it a 5 star....maybe 4 because the propane would have help numerous guest."

"3 time in 215. Our home away from home. Perfect!!
Experience always good however 5 of our days really rained which cancelled many plans. Comfortable and clean and perfect location. Shower could be a lot hotter in the water dept. only fault. Maybe it was just a issue that week. Bed and linen super nice and extra blankets and pillows a plus. We own a beach rental in Cali so love to hear about the comfort aspects from our guess. Will be back. Mahalo. "

"Wonderful stay at Hale Kai
We stayed for a week and a half at Hale Kai 215 in August 2022. The condo was very clean, well furnished and comfortable. The kitchen and bathroom are newly renovated. The kitchen has all the equipment/utensils you need. Even the pull out couch was comfortable to sleep on!
The lanai and view is incredible. You're steps from the ocean, sunset side and the pool was a good size and well maintained.
Turtles can frequently be seen playing the the waves from the pool deck.
We have stayed a few times in Honokawai (this are of Maui) and love it. There's a great little organic market across the street (try the banana bread, pineapple salsa and Lulu koi cream cheese), a fish market a couple blocks away, a food truck area 5 mins walk away etc. Many choices of beaches nearby and lovely historic Lahaina. "

"The view from the Lenai was superb...
Easy check in. Incredible stay - Nothing but good things to say about Hale Kai #215. Property was clean and well maintained. I would recommend this unit to anyone. The undisputed winner in our world were the beaches of Maui. Rent a car and hit as many as you can - you won't be sorry. The Luau's were close and the one we attended was incredible.
The real gem was the Lenai at this unit - great view morning and at sunset. We definitely plan on going back!"

Hale Kai is a great quiet complex right on the ocean. We loved morning coffees on the lanai and easy proximity to anywhere you wanted to go. Overall 10! And the turtles and snorkeliing e=right out front were great too"

"Back to our roots
We started coming over in the late 80s and we haven’t been there for about 10 years. It was fun to come back to see the condos. It’s amazing nothing has really changed and it still has a great feeling that we used to enjoy. There are some things that could’ve been updated and we need to think about that the next time we come over."

"20th Anniversary Trip
Pretty awesome. The view is outstanding. The condos are located right next door to a beach park, which we used to hang out, snorkel and watch the turtles swim by. The pool was clean and quite for our stay. The lack of air conditioning was no problem, just open the louvers and the ocean air does the job. It gets hot between 2-5 pm so use the outdoor screen on your porch to keep the heat out. This unit was well appointed with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Comfy bed, great kitchen, clean bathroom. Every time we looked around for something we needed, we found it! Cleaning supplies, broom, vacuum, extra pillows, etc. Only caveat; the bedroom window is located by the parking lot and road which made for noisy evenings and mornings. Other than that, it was a terrific stay! Thanks!"

"Quiet, Peaceful, Away from the Resort Crowds!
EXCELLENT experience! We will rent #215 again! We loved this place! The updated kitchen had everything we needed for meal prep. Nice, updated bathroom. Comfortable large bed. Even the pullout couch bed was quite comfortable as it has a thick mattress. It was a magical experience to listen to the ocean lull us to sleep through the screen door . We went to a few resort areas and we were so THANKFUL we were at Hale Kai instead. There were days when we had the pool and/or beach area to ourselves. Coffee and card games on the deck while watching for whales were a huge bonus. The residents and other guests were super friendly and laid back. You can't go wrong if you're looking for serenity! The manager gentleman works very hard at maintaining the pool area and grounds. The barbeque grills are cleaned every day. Eventually the corners of the unit, the baseboards, and the curtains could use a good cleaning but it's not a deal breaker. I saw some bad reviews about the uncomfortable furniture and no air conditioning and neither were an issue. First of all, you're rarely sitting around in your unit because you're always outside. Secondly, air conditioning isn't necessary with the incredible flow of air from the ocean. Convenient shopping is within walking distance. The Farmer's Market grocery store makes fantastic homemade guacamole, salsa, acai bowls, and smoothies. The Times grocery store is within walking distance, too. Bad *** coffee often had a line but we enjoyed making our own and savoring it on the deck anyway. The bus system is very efficient and easy to figure out. If you are used to fancy, expensive resorts this might not be the place for you. If you appreciate peace, quiet and laid back Maui, this is the place for you!"

"Hale Kai no ka oi. (It’s the best.)
Hale Kai is a marvelous place to stay. Small and delightful, away from the crowds and right on the beach. I was in unit 215, which was lovely. Farmers market, fish market and deli nearby, you almost don’t need a car. Valerie in the office was most helpful. I’d love to return to this cozy and friendly location. "

"Remarkable views
We enjoyed our stay at Hale Kai immensely! The property was beautiful with amazing ocean front views. We could hear the waves day and night which we loved from condo #215. The property was quiet, peaceful and close to everything we needed and wanted. The park and beach next door to the property were great for snorkeling and playing in the ocean. The kitchen was fully stocked for cooking and preparing meals. Great property, mahalo !"

"Great Anniversary Getaway on Maui
We enjoyed a full anniversary week in Hale Kai #215. The location was perfect, just above the pool with a great ocean view. Amazing sunsets from the Lanai each evening. Weather was a bit warm and so we were grateful for two portable oscillating fans in the unit. The bed was very comfortable. Kitchen fully stocked with dishes, etc. Beach umbrellas and chairs were available in the closet. Also, we used the outdoor bbq. Residents and guests very friendly. Close to park, shopping, The Fish Market and Farmers Market. We hope to return."

"Great time in Maui
It was quite frustrating initially because some white box on the wall eventually turned to control the lights in living room and kitchen; because I could see I couldn’t turn on the stove top. I checked the info book for help or information; Nothing! I had to wait until morning and get some help by other residents- otherwise ok! Please put details for 215 kitchen and lights in you room info book. Thank you"

"A Great Escape
We spent a week in unit 215 in March 2019. The condo was spacious, clean and well-appointed. The expansive view and sounds of the ocean made for a great escape. We enjoyed the little beach adjoining the condo complex where green sea turtles often came up in the afternoon to bask in the sun . Great location near shopping and restaurants, some within walking distance. Valerie at the front desk was very helpful. We have already made reservations to return next year. "

"Second time at Hale Kai!
Just finished a 1 week stay at Hale Kai in unit #215. This was a sisters trip with our husbands and we each had our own unit. Unit was clean and was well stocked with all the kitchen items you needed for meal times. Beach towels and bathroom towels were available for our use and the king size bed with quality sheets made for a comfy night sleep. We love the low-vibe feeling of this complex with its many residents and guest with extended stays. Sunset provided a get together at poolside every evening for conch blowing. The pool was perfect size, never crowded but a bit chilly due to the cool weather Maui was experiencing. Valerie in the office continues to be an awesome asset to the property answering all questions, making recommendations for restaurants and outings and even fixed our TV when the cable went out! The property is lovely with views of Lanai and Molokai, whales, and an occasional sea turtle. We love this property and hope to visit again soon! We walked the neighborhood every morning and enjoyed the Farmers Market, Bad *** Coffee, the food service at ABC store, Ohana Taco's and the Fish Market."

"Super efficient condo with magnificent views
My husband and I had a wonderful stay in unit 215 for 8 nights in December 2018. We were especially pleased with the perfectly appointed kitchen, large comfy bed, and gorgeous shower perfect for cleaning up after a day at the beach. The location of this complex is ideal, we swam with turtles right in front of our condo! Great restaurants, grocery stores, and everything you may need are moments away. Our only suggestion would be a deep cleaning. Don’t get me wrong, the unit is clean, but a good scrub in the corners with a little elbow grease would make this spot that much more amazing."

Perfect 10 day get away. Condo had everything, updates since we stayed a few years ago are well done and most appreciated.Nice to have tile flooring.

"Short Visit
We were only in Maui for three nights and so appreciative that we were accommodated since the minimum stay is usually 5 nights. The condo was very clean and nice- has everything you would need. Pool was lovely and location is close to stores, restaurants, etc. This unit has the bedroom window facing the parking lot and the street and unfortunately during our stay seemed very loud. The weather was quite warm so we kept the windows open, needless-to-say, sleep wasn't good. We did not spend much time there because we were out and about so all in all it was fine. "

"A stormy time at the Hale Kai
Although we've been coming to the Hale Kai for years, this was our first visit in October, and our first staycation, as we're currently living in Kihei. We were here 5 days, and our first and last day saw good weather, but the second night we experienced an electrical storm that went on for hours and shut power down throughout the island. That lasted until 11AM the next day, but we made it work. The unit was very well equipped (loved the sharp knives, thank you!) and the office staff was welcoming as always (Valarie is a dear!). It's doubtful we'll come in October again, but the weather was likely an aberration."

"Our Happy Place
This was our 5th or 6th stay in unit 215; our 9th year at Hale Kai. Hale Kai is in a terrific location. Eating our meals on the lanai to watch for whales, flying fish, sea turtles, etc., is a joy. Kudos to the new owners on the remodel! Now it's beautiful and the kitchen is beyond functional - we look forward to seeing the new bathroom next year! Instead of a kayak whale watching tour, this year we chose to go with Ali'i Maui Outrigger Canoes. It was an awesome experience - something we plan to do again next year. "

"On the ocean. Watch the whales.
We had a great time. Hale Kai is privately owned with an on-site management company, that is great to deal with. The wonderful thing about the proximity to the ocean is being able to watch the whales in the channel, and the sea turtles on the beach at the location. The view is exceptional. The entire complex is well maintained an clean. The entire setting is excellent. We recommend the place to all our friends."

We loved our stay in # 215. It was very clean with new carpet and new couch. Wonderful views of Lanai and Molakai from the back deck along with turtles swimming in the surf. Beautiful park next door.

"Beautiful View!
The Hale Kai complex has a small, intimate "Old Hawaii" feel, which is really nice and homey. Parking is easy, and many stores and restaurants are within walking distance. We stayed in unit 215, which has a gorgeous view of the ocean and Molokai. The sunsets are amazing! The unit itself is in serious need of remodeling, updating and cleaning. Also, there is no air conditioning, and in June the heat was sweltering. I would never go back there during the summer because of this issue. Overall, this unit has a great view and the complex is in a good location. Just keep the other issues in mind before booking a stay here!"
Jun 20, 2015 - Tricia E., Burbank, California
"As always- amazing
We love this unit however this time there were a couple issues: 1. The carpet needs to be replaced. The smell is horrible. 2: the couches or cushions are totally mildewy. The dampness contributed of course but we feel like the unit needs a remodel. New furniture. Also. The bed needs fixing. There are two twin size beds moved together and the frame is drooping. We slept crooked all week "

"Great Condo in a Great Location
We had a lovely stay at Hale Kai and cannot wait to go back! The condo office was very nice and helpful, and we loved that there were laundry facilities available (we didn't need them, so I can't comment but did notice the machines were coin operated). The location was perfect! Directly next to a park with a great playground and beach, plus a little shopping plaza (with farmers market, store, coffee place, etc) a block away! We spent a lot of time at the park with our 1.5 year old and the farmers market had great produce! We loved that the condo had a pool (it was our daughter's first time at a beach and we weren't sure how she'd like it) and nice beach to the north and south. We spent more time at the park's beach, since the water was a little gentler. We stayed in #215 and thought it was perfect for our needs. One bedroom with a king bed, living room, kitchen, and bathroom. Each unit is individually owned, so they're all a little different (the pictures on the website were accurate). This was not the fanciest, most upgraded condo, but it worked great. You couldn't beat the view! 215 faced the ocean and felt like we were basically in it... Sitting on the lanai was a great time and we saw multiple humpback whales! There was no air conditioning, but we didn't really miss it (during my research, it seemed like AC is somewhat rare due to high energy costs). Between the fans and the winds, the condo was kept plenty cool (although as Alaska residents, we would have definitely used a window AC unit to keep the bedroom a touch cooler at night). The kitchen was well equipped, and we used the coffee maker, blender, and dishwasher a lot. The only things missed was some Tupperware -- it would have made packing lunches for the beach easier. We initially thought the shower only would be an inconvenience with the baby, but it ended up being perfect! We would have had to fill a tub twice for proper sand removal and washing. "

"Perfect location - all sorts of added bonuses
With so many highly rated take-out restaurants within walking distance no need for a car at Hale Kai if you want to really rest. With green turtles on the reefs just off shore and the symphony of conch shell blowers around the pool at sunset there is always something happening.
And Valerie and her staff are so helpful and quick to provide any missing items or fix problems..... wonderful. Guests respect the quiet time rules - the ever present sound of the ocean makes sleeping easy.
The property is aging and some units could use an update, but overall it is a great place to spend time on Maui."

We have stayed in this property 8 to 10 times in the last 25 years. Noise at night has always been an issue at times. People downstairs do not realize how noise carries out the bed room windows and upstairs. I had to go down stairs one night and tell the occupants to turn the sound down on their computer. My suggestion is a notice in the bedrooms on the wall a nice reminder that voices and noise carries upstairs. "

"Outstanding vacation location
We have visited Maui before for a day off-ship, but this was our first one-week condo stay. For us, Hale Kai is the ideal combination of great location, nice facilities, nearby necessities and fair price. Unit 215 is a step back into 1970's island deco, but that was just fine with us. The unit is stocked with everything you could possibly need or expect and the complex is very near markets and restaurants. The lanai view of 180 degree sunset and across the channel to Molokai, is fantastic. Owners and long-time repeat guests were very friendly to us first-timers. Thank you. Great pool and sandy beach are right there. We will book again for sure. Our only suggestion is to rough up the dangerously slippery last step onto the sandy beach. You are begging for a lawsuit from a crazy who slips and is injured despite the easy to read, well-placed signs warning of the slippery steps."

We had a great vacation. The condo at Hale Kai was amazing. It was right on the beach, and had a pool as well. We took advantage of the bbq pits several of the nights we were there.

"3 star property with a 5 star view
Older building in a well kept, convenient location. Fantastic view.
Condo needed updating (bathroom,kitchen floor,appliances, decor). Everything was just adequate.
Street traffic noise was loud until midnight or so. Beach park, next door, was disappointingly rocky with the reef too close to shore.
The view makes up for all other shortcomings. Spectacular.
Would stay here again but not in this unit.

My husband and I celebrated our 1st year anniversary in Maui and decided to stay at Hale Kai. We were so happy we did! The place was very clean when we arrived. We did find a couple of dirty clothes that must've been left by previous renters, but otherwise, everything was clean. There was no AC, but the trade winds, along with the ceiling fans and the breeze from the ocean when you open the patio doors kept the place cool. We also had the conveniences of home, a kitchen, tv with cable, bath and beach towels. It was nice to lounge outside by the pool although we didn't get much of a chance to do so. We saw sea lions and turtles while we were there! It was amazing :) It was nice to have the farmer's market and a coffee shop across the street. There's also a supermarket that's within walking distance. Valerie was also very helpful. She was prompt with emails, answering our questions and concerns. I would highly recommend Hale Kai and room 215 to vacationers! :)"

"Top Notch ol school
Perfect. Love that it is not a resort. Its quiet, homey, updated, adorable..condos have vaulted ceilings, kitchen with all the amenities, view was to die for, pool was impeccable, neighbors were chill. Just all around great vibes, everything you need. Could totally live here. One of those places you'd rather keep a secret but....gotta share the love."
