Whales and Turtles at Kuleana's Best Location


This most sought after location in the complex is a ground floor corner unit offering privacy and just 10 paces away from one of the two almost private beaches, where you may find yourself alone.(Be aware that the beaches are subject to tidal erosion). There are two huge shade trees above for when that sunburn beckons a shady place to enjoy panoramic ocean views with Lanai and Molokai in the background.
Beach chairs, towels and snorkeling gear are provided if you wish to swim with the turtles feeding at the waters edge. Please don't touch them as we would like them to return each day. Seasonal whale watching and spinner dolphins from your lanai and an ever changing ocean show of breathtaking sunsets, sunrises, rainbows and even moonbows over lanai and molokai. World class surfing and paddle boarding from your backyard.

You truly have found paradise.

If a pool is more inviting, enjoy luxuriating under the maui sun in the large pool that is heat controlled to maintain an enjoyable swim no matter the weather. Stroll through the beautiful grounds of the kuleana resort, take advantage of the on-site tennis, shuffleboard court or enjoy a game of ping-pong in the spacious open air lobby complete with library and an assortment of toys for children. A concierge is available to help book your sightseeing trip or luau.
The condominium was completely remodeled in 2014 with tile and granite surfaces , is tastefully furnished and decorated with incredible photographic art. Ceiling fans provide ambiance and comfort in the living room and bedroom. Air conditioning in the bedroom will keep the whole apartment at an even, cool temperature if the trade breezes coming down the slopes of the west maui mountains are not sufficient. All linens are new, high quality and high thread count.A fully equipped laundry is onsite so pack light.
55' HiDef TV with some premium channels and Netflix

Beach Front
Very peaceful and relaxing stay. Small beach just 30 feet from your patio, with a great big shade tree to relax under to enjoy the sea breeze and view of sunset.

Perfect location for the relaxing vacation we wanted. The property was beautiful, the views cannot be beat. Sea turtles right on the beach steps from the unit. The condo was clean and well supplied. Many restaurants close by.

Amazing all around
John and his wife are amazing people! I'll start with the basics. The condo was clean and very well appointed. Everything you would need to make your vacation fun and comfortable, we had guests in other rooms jealous of our water toys. The location is unbeatable! Just steps away from a small but perfect beach with amazing waves (can be heard from the bedroom). No turtles came on the beach itself, but we saw many from the lanai, and walking the grounds (which are beautiful). Now to the good stuff (sorry if it gets long). We got to the condo about 30 minutes before the fire in Lahaina started and we had not gone to the grocery store before we got there. So, no power and no food, panic set in. John called the next morning to check if we were ok and we let him know of our situation. He did not hesitate to let us have access to some food they had in the condo and expressed the utmost concern and love. Might be a little dramatic but this literally saved my life as I'm a diabetic and really needed to eat. His wife also called the next day to confirm we were ok. Ty, the property manager also came through in a big way and gave me a box of protein bars to keep me feed till we could go to town to get some basics. The entire staff at the complex was amazing! Helpful in just being decent humans taking care of others and keeping us updated when they could. When West Maui recovers we will be going back and will be staying in this condo again. Mahalo!

Wonderful View!
My wife and I had an amazing 10 days for our 31st anniversary! The condo is quiet, seems recently remodeled, and has everything we needed in the kitchen and for the bbq. The foam-top bed was extremely comfortable, the reclining sofas were also comfortable, and the shower had very strong water pressure. It can get warm and humid in Maui, but the front door had a metal locking screen that allowed the trade winds to blow through the house, and that combined with the fans and water 20 steps from the back door kept us cool most of the time. At night, the bedroom air conditioning kept the room very cool and the white noise was soothing. But the BEST part about this condo was the location! It’s a corner unit and very private as there’s no beach access from the road. We loved sitting on the lanai to hear the waves or watch the sunset. We also snorkeled off the small beach directly in front of the back door, and saw 4-5 turtles every time (apparently this is a turtle habitat)! Several timeshare guests told me we had the premiere location, and we agreed! We also felt that this is the best part of the island! 7 minutes from Kapalua Bay where there is a beach trail, lots of sand, amazing snorkeling, and you can rent kayaks and paddle boards! 10 minutes from Honolua Bay, the best snorkeling spot on Maui, where the boat tours go. 5 minutes from Kaanapali, with shopping and restaurants. The beach chairs and umbrella were definitely nice to have! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Inside appears new with well-equipped kitchen. The view from the lanai was nothing short of spectacular. The turtles were there every day and we were mesmerized.

Beautiful patio view
The property is very nice and peaceful. The pool is great and the landscaping is beautiful. The view from the patio, especially at sunset, is great! The beach access is located near this unit so it was a little busy outside at times near our patio with guests heading to the water. The ac in the bedroom is a little loud when it’s on at night but works very well to make the room comfortable. The rest of the unit doesn’t have ac. The breeze from the patio makes the living room area comfortable but the bathroom got a little muggy at times. Having the beach chairs and other beach toys available for our use was very helpful. The location is nice with good snorkeling nearby and the easy drive to Front St for shopping and dining options. We enjoyed our stay.
