We had a fabulous time in Maui- because how can you not?! That being said, we have stayed at several other resorts across the island, and enjoyed them much more than Honua Kai. The room/unit itself was ok - size was good, and it had a well-stocked kitchen. The unit overall could use a refresh, furniture was worn down, large hole in the couch (as mentioned in other reviews), and overall just seems a little old/rundown. The property manager was very accommodating and her communication was good. She was quick to respond when the door batteries were dead, and when we checked in and didn't have enough linens. The tower this unit is in does have a small coffee shop with snacks and such, however its hours were limited. Duke's is the only restaurant on site- pretty location, ok food, hard to get in to- make a reservation! There are several nice pools on property, although we did find it odd that they didn't seem to monitor guests/wrist bands at all. Our last visit to Maui we stayed at the Fairmont and were happy to see them monitoring guests at the pool. The beach is beautiful but not good for swimming - be mindful of coral and rocks, especially if you have young children. We had to drive daily to get to swimmable beaches. The location of the resort is great- quick drive to Napili and Kapalua, and a short drive down to Whaler's Village and the busier Kaanapali area. Overall it was a great visit, and the resort is nice, but definitely not "high end" if that's what you're looking for.
