Unit #209-3BR/2 Bath

Honokeana Cove 209 is a 3-bedroom 2-bath top floor unit just a quarter mile south of Napili Bay's sandy public beach. This lush, tropical 38-unit property sits on a secluded cove with breathtaking views of passing whales (in season), dolphins and the island of Molokai. The cove offers some of the best snorkeling on Maui without the crowds. Countless encounters with sea turtles, coral formations and tropical fish are easily had at the cove. A heated swimming pool and oceanside grills are only steps from the unit. The acclaimed white sand beaches of Napili Bay (5 min walk) and Kapalua Bay (10 min walk) offer additional snorkel, paddle board and swimming opportunities. Great restaurants, coffee shops, snorkel/paddle board rentals and groceries are all within walking distance. World-class golfing at Kapalua is just minutes away.

Cove 209 has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom on the first level and a private Mezzanine bedroom with bathroom upstairs. The unit’s corner location and abundant windows take advantage of Hawaiian trade winds for airflow. A lush old-growth Kamani tree off the lanai provides shade, privacy and comfort throughout the day. The unit is bright, airy and clutter-free with modern conveniences like USB outlets, touch faucet and smart ceiling fans.

  My family had an excellent stay for a week in our condo at Honokeana Cove. We were here for a we, and the condo was midway between the festivities. PLUS, we had our own private cove with turtles galore, amazing sunsets and rainbows in the morning. The condo was one of the best outfitted I have ever stayed in, with everything you could need in the kitchen, to beach chairs and ice chests. So beautiful and relaxing!

  Alyssa R from Encino, California recommends this vacation rental

  This is our second time staying at Honokeana and I can't rave about it enough. It's the best snorkeling on the island and we just love the low key, easy feel of the property. When we go to an island, we want to feel a bit removed from it all, but we also have small children. So, this is THE PERFECT option for feeling quiet and secluded, away from the giant resorts, with a perfect pool, kitchen and play areas for the kids. This condo in particular was so nicely redone and furnished. Please include in the rental listing that you have beach chairs and an umbrella for your guests to use (would've saved us from renting prior to arrival). Thank you!

  Our family of 6 stayed in unit 209. Our stay was incredible. The condo was updated, clean and comfortable. The ocean view is amazing. Honestly better than the pictures show. 5 minute walk to Nāpili beach which is one of our favourite beaches in the area. The managers were friendly and helpful. I cant say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay. We will definitely stay here again.

  There is nowhere in Hawaii I would rather stay than the Cove. The grounds are lovely. The views are amazing with whale flukes and spouts. The snorkeling is always rewarding. Su is great to help with some of the little details. An easy drive to Kapalua or Lahaina for shopping, dining, or golf yet it is just as pleasant to stay on the property for swim, sun, and relaxation. Stay #5 will be in our future.

Very comfortable. TV is a bit overwhelming to control, but finally figured it out. One note as with most of the units at the Cove, traffic noise outside is an issue. You will be sleeping with all the windows open & can hear everything.

  we had a group of friends stay here, and our local friends recommended Napili for the beaches. The condo was impeccable and had everything we needed. Even a few loaner chairs and float noodles which were so great to have. Loved the sea turtles everyday and the tiki torches at night with sunset. Just a perfect spot, beach access is a few minutes walk around to the next bay, otherwise enjoy the rocky Honokeana Bay perfect for swimming, snorkeling and paddleboarding. Wish we could have stayed forever.

  We stayed at Honeakana Cove, unit 209 for 11 nights. It was out second visit to Maui and we will never stay anywhere else! The condo sits on the most beautiful cove where dozens of sea turtles live. The best snorkeling on Maui is in your backyard! Napili Beach (my favorite on Maui) is just a 5 minute walk. You are minutes from Kapalua, the blow hole, Two tiered pools, etc. Napili Market is just a few blocks away - a fantastic market with everything you will need after your Costco run. Su at front desk is EXCEPIONAL!!! We forgot fathers day cards and I stopped in the office to ask for some blank paper for my boys to make cards - and she gave us her handmade cards that are just beatiful. Unit 209 is perfect in every way - well stocked and simply/tastefully decorated. We floated on tubes and watched the sunset most nights. Grills are great too - I thought we would eat out more but we didnt want to leave the cove, so we grilled in most nights. This place is exceptional!!!! Thank you, Honokeana Cove for such a lovely vacation!

  The location was fabulous. The staff and management were great. The bed was comfortable, I was in the loft. The upstairs bathroom exhaust fan was of no use.
  I found the living room and dining area lacking. The furniture is very uncomfortable, and the lighting was poor.
  The kitchen was ok, but the microwave was very small. The oven looked great, but was dirty inside, there were no instructions.

    Aloha Richard, Mahalo for your comments. I have passed this onto the owner for review. This unit was recently remodeled from top to bottom. Everything is brand new. Sorry about the oven; my maids must have missed it on the cleaning from previous guest. We hope you will return to the Cove and find another unit that might suit your need better. mahalo, su

  We had a wonderful time. Sue and Betty couldn't have been more accommodating.

This corner location had the most spectacular view and we would stay here again in a heartbeat. We saw whales everyday, turtles sunbathed right in front of us. The snorkeling and paddle boarding was wonderful. We even had a race from the opening of the cove to the shore! Definitely a vacation to remember!

  I have been staying here for more than 20 years. This unit has been just sold and is not in the usual high quality of the other units. I do believe that the new owners are going to make new improvements. The size of the unit is great for a family or 2 couples. I no longer care to climb stairs so I usually rent a lower unit. I was lucky to get a unit at all, so I was just happy to be here in this lovely setting. I will be back again next year.

  Honokeana Cove was exactly what we were looking for. Property was beautiful, well maintained, staff were helpful and friendly.
  Unit #209 left us disappointed with the unit only!
  It apparently is in escrow and lets hope the new owners clean it up and update it appropriately.
  We knew it was in rough shape when we booked, but it really is in rough rough shape!!!!! We did not let the unit spoil our stay at Honokeana and we certainly hope to return in the future.
  We would recommend Honokeana; although we would not recommend this unit until it is overhauled.

  Not too fancy but comfortable in a terrific location on a cove full of turtles and lovely fish. Hard to find this level on the coast which has enormous complexes that are newer and more expensive but pretty generic and far more expensive. This place is like home-- quirky. Some units more up-to-date than others. The one we rented needs an upgrade but was fine for our family. We could cook for ourselves--there are three gas grills for guests. Hard to beat!

  Don J from Roseville, CA recommends this vacation rental

  We have stayed at Honokeana Cove in the past. It is a family destination in a great West Maui location. The best asset is the private snorkeling cove with many resident sea turtles. While this is an older property the units are generally well maintained and clean. The staff are also very accommodating and make you feel like family. We find the second floor loft units offer a great value for the number of bedrooms and space.
  
  On our latest visit in June 2018, we stayed in unit 209 and found it clean but several years overdue for a major renovation. The flooring was well worn and in need of replacing, as was the furniture and kitchen appliances. The chairs and sofa were so uncomfortable that we sat on side pillows to add some cushion. The electrical switches in the kitchen had to be in a midway position to turn on sink light. The entire unit was also over-decorated with island souvenirs and art. There were 3 TVs in the unit, but we could have used printed instructions to operate the digital TV and DVD player.

  Alice T from San Diego, California recommends this vacation rental

  Honokeana Cove is our favorite place to stay in Maui. We've stayed in numerous units over the years and this was by far the most need of updating. The carpet was old and stained. Even the wrought iron patio furniture with vinyl seats have seen their day. They did add nice granite on top of the original dated cabinets, which was odd. Also, the unit does have a fair amount road noise, but it helped to shut windows and curtains. Other than that the staff and property were fantastic as usual. Will come back again, just not to this unit.

  • Manager Responded on 8/30/2017

    Aloha Alice, Thank you for your review. Sorry for the condition of this unit. The owner recently passed away and his daughter will now be ready to update the unit or sell.

  Spending my 60th birthday in Hawaii was awesome, but only 3 of my 8 days were allotted for Maui. HKC has always been my home away from home when visiting Maui, and this trip reinforced my love for it. I do miss the old lava rock facade on the buildings giving it that old Hawaiian charm, but the grounds are still beautiful and very well kept - the plants and grass lush and blooming. I already booked my return for December, but for 8 days at HKC! Mahalo nui loa!

  Neal F from Hollister, CA recommends this vacation rental

  Overall it was a great vacation. Can't beat the location, views and beautiful grounds. Some things need improvement....unit 209 is getting run down and needs a makeover. The downstairs bathroom had a plastic ceiling cover above the tub that fell on my grand daughter. She's OK but it scared the s--- out of her.
  
  My only other suggestion is the ocean access. The steps down end too far away to be of much use. The rocks make for a challenging entry and exit from the water. This is OK for the younger folks but elderly or disabled have a tough time. Some ideas that could help are:
  1. Extend the stairs another 30-40 ft. out into the water.
  2. Extend the hand rail 30-40 ft. farther.
  3. Make a ramp on left side of sea wall that extends into water.

  • Manager Responded on 4/13/2016

    Aloha Neal, thank you for your comments. This unit is hopefully being updated soon. The access into the water is all that we are allowed by the County, State and Federal Governments since we would be encroaching on all their land. During the summer months the water is much calmer and access sis much easier. Come visit us in the summertime. mahalo, su

  I spent 2 weeks at the Cove in Feb/March, staying in 3 different units. Unit 209, one of the larger condos, was a good choice for 5 of us. Though in need of some updates--which will be happening in May, we were told--we loved the views and the space of this unit. And of course, the real draw of Honokeana Cove is outside, not indoors. Swimming with turtles multiple times a day, watching whales breach on the horizon, chatting with the regulars who come back year after year--this is what Honokeana Cove offers, and we will be back!

  We arrived after office hours to the keys waiting in the managers mail box. The unit was clean and well appointed, LOVED the view when we woke up in the morning. More importantly it was quite. The perfect vacation spot to relax and hang out with your family. All the beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. The only thing I could "complain" about was that there weren't any extra blankets (that I could locate), only the thin bed cover and sheets. I would have liked an extra blanket. We definitely will plan on requesting this unit again!

  • Manager Responded on 2/24/2016

    Aloha Ann, It was a pleasure to have all of you here at the Cove. It's funny you should mention blankets when just a few months ago everyone wanted air conditioning!

  Honokeana Cove is a quiet, private condo on Maui's west shore. It is located on a marvellous snorkelling cove with a killer view of Molokai. The sandy beach is a 1-2 block walk. Unit 209 is 2 Br + upstairs loft bedrrom and 2 full baths. The unit is well stocked. It is clean and the furnishings are more than adequate.
  
  In all, if you are looking for a quiet, relaxing place to stay on Maui, this is it. It is particularly well suited for extended stays. Many of the guests get to know each other at the pool or communal BBQs.

  Jeff T from Medford, NJ - New Jersey does not recommend this vacation rental.

  This was a lovely resort but we unfortunately had a below average condo. Upon arrival we found the condo had not been inspected and cleaning products were left out, a smoke detector was chirping, and bath towels were missing. Resident manager was extremely helpful and corrected everything right away. First surprise was no air conditioning. This was not communicated well upon booking...I eventually found a blurb on the FAQ page of the website, buried under "Heating and Cooling" that not all condos have air. Would not have been an issue except our condo was located next to the road and we were awakened every day at 5:30am by the noise. Air with closed windows would have greatly reduced the traffic noise. Condo is in desperate need of updating. Dresser drawers were broken, beds very uncomfortable, door knobs on bedrooms would stay locked after leaving the room, then blow shut by the breeze and we would get locked out. Fortunately the resident manager provided us with the keys. Another smoke detector went off at 3:00am that we had to dismantle. The video on the website made the condo appear lighter and brighter than it actually was. Again, updating the dark wood paneling would make it more light and appealing. I got the feeling this condo is not rented often and the only update it's had in the last 20 years is granite in the kitchen. The resort itself is lovely, beautifully landscaped, great location on the cove with outstanding snorkeling, clean pool, walking distance to Napili Bay and restaurants. At night we could see in some other condos and they looked much nicer than ours. First time we've had a less than excellent experience based on a TripAdvisor high rating. Very disappointing. Would only return if we had an air conditioned unit that was updated.

  • Manager Responded on 9/2/2015

    Aloha Jeff, I am terribly sorry for your experience in this unit. This owner is making plans to do some updating next year. I hope you will come see us again and book early to get the unit you desire. As far as air conditioning, normally we do not need it here in Napili. It just so happened that we had an unusual heat wave; the hottest I have seen it in the 45 years I have lived here. Mahalo for your review, Su

  This was our 12th visit to Honokeana Cove and it's like coming home. This being said Unit 209 would not be my choice again. This location on the property is very convenient, though it has a fair amount of street noise. Unit needs some work, especially the lighting. Also pretty dark interior. Too much "stuff". Overall, Honokeana is a wonderful relaxing experience with unsurpassed snorkling and atmosphere. Especially good if you want to get away from the "big hotel" experience.

  David F from Salem, Oregon recommends this vacation rental

  Not even the rain could dampen our spirits. We loved our stay at the Cove. The view was breathtaking and the grounds beautifully kept. Our condo was a little outdated and could benefit from a furniture rearrangement. The living room area space seemed cramped because of the furniture arrangement and the number of extra pieces. We had friends and family staying in other units and they seemed more recently updated and roomier because of the furniture present and its arrangement. We appreciated the well stocked kitchen and were able to cook everything that we wished. The property managers were amazing-friendly and helpful. We Would love to return and will definitely visit the Gazebo Restaurant again. It was worth waiting in line to have an amazing breakfast. Whales, spinning dolphins and turtles were just some of the wildlife easily seen from our lanai and the snorkeling was as fantastic as described in the brochure. We have already recommended Honokeana Cove to our friends. Thanks for such a fun vacation!

  Honokeana Cove Condos complex is great. Unit flooring is a bit outdated and the master bedroom bed in only a queen as stated in the description. Would like to have had a king at least. Unit 209 bedrooms are next to the highway and can be noisy at nights. I had to close all the windows, run a fan for noise, and sleep with ear plugs. If the temperatures at night didn't cool off it would have been uncomfortable as the unit is not air conditioned. I will be coming back to the condos but will ask to stay in another unit away from the highway. Ma halo.
