1 bed/1 bath renovated end unit condominium on the 2nd floor of 2 story bdg.
Classic sailing vessels inspired and clad in custom crafted teak.
This condo sits at Maui Sands is an Ocean Front Property, with a spectacular view of the islands of Molokai and Lanai.
The interior of the unit has been designed with serenity in mind, and was inspired by the architecture of wooden tall ships. There is a large teak island adjacent to the kitchen and creates plenty of space for both the chef and the diner!
The end unit provides an extra window for maximizing the benefits of the cool ocean trade winds.
With extra living space on the large lanai, you can enjoy delicious meals or a superb Maui evening. We have a wonderful garden view, surprisingly private with a peekaboo view of the ocean framed by palms and fragrant plumeria trees.
There are plenty of built in drawers and cabinets for our guests, with TV's in both the living area and bedroom.
The seawall and ocean shore is literally 30 steps from you front door! You will enjoy the fresh clean air and hear ocean waves from every room!
Please note the ocean front is beach area varies with tides and time of year. Rising ocean levels shift the sand back and forth quite a bit. There are wider sandy beaches in walking distance both north and south of the property.
The entire condo is accessible by the guest other than a small owner lockout.
Check in time is 5pm and check out 11am.
I am always available by email, text or phone should you need me. I am more than happy to provide recommendations as well.
A low density property, Maui Sands glows with ambiance and charm of Old Hawaii. We have 52 units in six 2-story buildings on three plus park-like acres. We are in the heart of Honokawai, close to delicious take-in and dine-out restaurants, as well as shopping, grocery stores, and the award winning Farmer's Market.
This is a lovely neighborhood with a mix of permanent residents and favorite local business alongside shops that cater to our visitors. It is the kind of neighborhood where strangers say Aloha as they pass on the street.
Honokawai is located on the Northwest shore of Maui, with views of the islands on Molokai and Lanai across the channel. Maui Sands epitomizes old school Hawaii ambience. This is a low density property , with beautiful grounds, including mango and banana trees.
We are a very easy short walk from some lovely beaches, and Honokawai Park. There are many good local restaurants for breakfast lunch and dinner, multi-cultural food trucks, a large Times grocery store, The Farmers Market, a health food store, a coffee shop, and some spa facilities, all within a 3-5 minute walk. One of ours and our guests favorite things about this location is The Farmers Market that is a very short walk away just north of the condo and across from the Honokawai Beach Park. They hold a special outdoor produce market with free samples on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings, but they offer fresh organic produce and an excellent deli from 7am to 7pm, 7 days a week.
A short drive south to the Whalers Village, and further on to Lahaina brings to great Front Street shopping and historic sights. The Historic Town of Lahaina (once the capital of Hawaii) has something for everyone including Warren and Annabelles Magic Show (some of the best close hand magic we've ever seen).
The Wharf in Lahaina has its share of wonderful excursions to choose from as well. We particularly like Trilogy for a day trip to the Island of Lanai. There are many sunset cruise to choose from along with snorkeling, fishing, sailing, and whale watching trips to fit most budgets. North towards Kapalua there are three more championship golf courses, as well as fabulous beach walks and mountain side hiking! Nothing like a sunset view from the side of a volcano!
We are within minutes of some terrific restaurants and a short drive from many more. Ocean gear such as fishing equipment, snorkel gear, and kayaks can be rented within walking distance. There is a bicycle and scooter rental across the street. Some of our favorite Island Highlights would be: traveling the road to Hana, with water falls and sightseeing around every bend: sunrise or sunset viewing from the top of our volcano, Haleakala; picnicking at historic I'ao Valley, with a short walk up to I'ao Needle and back by way of I'ao Stream Trail, and many more!
If you decide to forgo renting a car for part or all of your visit, there are many alternative means of transportation available for you.
The Maui Bus stops in front of the ABC store just next door and south of the property. The fee is $2 per leg of your trip per person, and they don't make change.
Uber and Lyft is also available as are traditional cab services. You may decide to leave the driving to someone else and take a tour to visit Hana or Haleakala. We like Roberts Hawaii but there are other companies out there that do a great job as well.
If you do decide to rent a car, there are local car rental companies available that do airport pick up.
One note of caution, The Maui Bus does not allow luggage to be brought on board, so this isn't a good way to get to or from the airport.
