Honua Kai 1024 Updated Beachfront Luxury Condo w Pool

The room was exactly as described. Great location in the Kaanapali area. The bed was comfy, kitchen fully equipped and it was nice to have access to beach chairs, boogie boards and umbrella. The only downside is that the room faces the highway so when doors were open, we mostly heard traffic and construction- so not a place to sleep with windows/ doors open and not really great for hanging out on the lanai. We didn’t really mind as we didn’t hang out in the room much. But the resort is very nice and clean and well-run.

was an absolute perfect retreat. Well equipped. quiet. close to good food and beaches

I was notified with only a few weeks before my rental date that the unit that I had paid for was no longer available and that I could accept their substitute property or get a refund. I accepted the substitute property only because it was too late to find any other property that would suit our needs or be near our family that would be there in their own unit. They had me over a barrel and I had to take it or leave it. Cancel all my plans, car rental and abandon my family. The substitute property was remote and had no fitness center. I will never book with third party again.

We love staying at the Honua Kai Resort. Pool is great, plenty of space, and easy walk to beach. Also nice to have pool service from Dukes if you want. Easy walk to Whalers Village and many options for drinks and dinner.

Everything was as shown in the photos! Beds were very comfortable, kitchen was well equipped. Lovely Mountain View’s .

We had a incredible stay at this VRBO at Honua Kai. I was VERY hesitant in booking and almost canceled my reservation due to the bad reviews but they were so inaccurate and I am so glad we did not cancel. We are a family of 4 with 2 kids (ages 2 and 5). The dryer worked fine and we had no issues. Towels were not thin, and were new looking. No one slept on the sofa couch but it was comfortable to sit on and watch TV. AC worked fine and had no issues. There were plenty of laundry pods, dishwashing detergent, cleaning supplies etc. It's located in the Hokulani Tower Building and is close by to everything. Parking was easy. On arrival, our key code didn't work, but I was able to follow the directions and call in and get it fixed within 5 minutes. Overall, I would stay here again!

Everything was Convenient and everyone was gracefully welcoming.

The room was excellent, well maintained, and contained everything we needed. Our biggest issue was guidance around arrival. There were no details other than parking is free and the room number. The resort though has multiple buildings and parking lots for various purposes with a lot of signage requiring permits/key card access. Being rented on vrbo through an off site property manager led to a lot of confusion about the very basic of where our room was. The property doesn’t have any maps or signs to indicate where to go. We spent over an hour trying to communicate with physical people who technically weren’t there to support us and by phone with a poor property management agent who had no additional directions. In general the actual stay was great, but more directions about where to park and go to find the room from someone who has actually been to the property would have improved the experience immensely.

I’ve stayed at this resort several times, different units. This was the smallest one bedroom but it worked out. My brother said the sofa bed was good. We all enjoyed the resort and beach.

I've stayed at Honua Kai 6 times, including this room. Owners and property managers like the ones that have this unit are the ones bringing the ratings of Honua Kai down. This unit doesn't appear to have been updated in any way over the past 13 years since the hotel opened. .This is listed as 1 bedroom with 2 beds (sofa bed). However, the sofa bed is completely unusable. You're laying on metal springs with no padding whatsoever. They stick in your back and you'll get no sleep. I called the property manager many times and they did nothing. I told them a twin roll away would be fine but they wouldn't rent one. They said I could get an air mattress after paying for a condo with 2 beds. Honestly, this should be expected in such a nasty unit. The carpets are disgustingly filthy and stick to your feet. This is exactly what you would expect in a Motel 6 where you feel you have to wear socks. or you'll catch something. The furniture has knicks all over it and the bathtub has rust in places. The cushions on the kitchen chairs are also filthy. The kitchen is missing so many essential items that it makes it tough to cook They only provide a few towels so you'll constantly be doing laundry. However, there's something wrong with the dryer. It takes about 3-4 hours to dry a few extremely thin small old mismatched towels. I could go on and on. This is a terrible unit and not like the rest of Honua Kai. Find another room to stay in and avoid the unresponsive property owners. They're trying to get as much money as possible out of people without investing anything back into the unit. It's too expensive to get to Hawaii to waste your vacation on this unit and these people.
