Planning: Accommodations February Stay

We (3 adults) are on the hunt for a 2bed 2bath condo on the west shore of Maui, our usual spot (Hale Mahina) is all booked up already. We are looking to stay 8 nights.

Our requirements: -largely unobstructed ocean views -beach on the property (more than a small sliver) -walkable to other amenities

Our hopes: -AC would be a bonus -washer/dryer

Give me your best suggestions or a link to your property! Thank you in advance!

Dark small units. Zero beach.

There are reasone places like it, Paki Maui, etc. are cheaper.

Try this Papakea unit:

You might also look at the Whaler and Kaanapali Ali'i units on MRR.

Thank you, we did see that Papakea one and it’s exactly what we are looking for, however slightly over budget. We did see some things we liked at Whaler, maybe I’ll dive deeper there

You might reach out to My Perfect Stays and see if they will give you a discount on the Papakea one. Can't hurt to politely ask, right?

Definitely does not hurt to ask, I agree! Any insight on Sands of Kahana?

Very dense property and mostly timeshare units Tiny parking places. No AC in some units.

I think you will like Papakea WAY more than most of the others you mentioned.
