Napili Bay Resort 217, Lahaina Maui

Great place to stay

Very comfortable stay at Napili Bay Resort. The condo was clean, well equipped, and had a very comfortable bed. You can’t beat the access to the beach. Also a plus being so close to The Gazebo.

Excellent Experience

Excellent Experience! Quiet , wonderful place and a true gem!

Great place to atay

Had a wonderful stay at the Napili Bay Resort. The weather didn’t cooperate, but the condo was nice and well equipped for cooking and the beach. In walking distance of 5315 Kitchen and Gazebo Restaurants if you so want to eat out. Grocery store is... more close by. Nice grill and picnic area . Walk through the gate to the beach. Beach is beautiful. less

Good location and customer service

We stayed for 7 days in February. The condo was as indicated in other reviews and I would recommend it to others. We had interactions with Heather and she was very responsive and committed to being helpful to her guests.

— Jim, Stayed 02/15/2023

Amazing condo, steps from napili bay beach

We absolutely loved our stay at Napili Bay resort in Heather’s condo. It is a very special place and an amazing location. We could walk to snorkel bob’s for rentals, walk to amazing dining, and were not in an overly populated resort area. Highly recommend... more her condo, I’ve already shared the link with more than a few people who inquired upon seeing the beach view from the condo! Kitchen is well stocked and very useful for longer stays. Highly recommend a stay in Heather’s condo less

Great Location

The unit was as depicted on VRBO- chairs on the deck were not that comfortable but everything else was good. Access to the beach was perfect!!!!

— Faith, Stayed 11/07/2022

Great condo

The condo we had was perfect. Great views and sounds of Hawaii. Doing birds in the trees and the sound of the ocean. We will come again

— Gary, Stayed 11/03/2022

Awesome Location + Everything you need in an apt.

I have been coming to Napili for years and you really cant beat this beach! The condo is a two minute walk, and has all amenities you need for a comfortable stay! No issues without AC, even in 90 degree weather, there is a nice... more cross breeze with windows and doors open + fans. Perfect little kitchen + BBQ's outside. Will definitely return! less

— Leah, Stayed 10/10/2022

Great value on a nice, quiet little getaway

Basically we were very happy with this unit. It was clean, quiet, had a nice view, and we would definitely recommend it. Having said that, here are a few observations we had: 1) The bed was very comfortable but the bottom sheet didn't really fit.... more I'm guessing the cleaning service uses standard sheets and the foam mattress must not be standard size. We had to remake the bed fully every morning. 2) The high top table on the lanai is great for enjoying the view, but it was very awkward to get in and out of. Hard to scoot in and out when your feet don't hit the floor. 3) The lanai has no lights so if you wait until after sunset to eat dinner, you're stuck inside eating from the couch off the coffee table. Some kind of lighting on the lanai would be very helpful. 4) The only condiment in the kitchen was salt & pepper, and the refrigerator was completely empty. It's hard to believe that people don't leave things behind for the next visitors. My guess is that things are so tough in Maui right now that the cleaning service takes everything that gets left behind. Hopefully that will change soon. We really did have a great time and the above items are minor little nuisances compared to the tremendous enjoyment we experienced on our visit. Thanks! less

Follow-up on our stay at the Napili Bay Condo 217

For the most part we enjoyed our brief stay while being in Maui. Because we were there for such a short time (for a granddaughters' wedding) we did not rent a car and other family members lodging a few minutes away provided transportation for us.... more The room was nice, comfortable and well supplied with amenities. The only things we would have enjoyed more was being able to get some sun on the lanai vs. just the shade we had and also being able to get more internet use as we pretty much had to go without any of that during our time there. We gave up, trying to figure out how to use the TV and even family members gave up trying to help us as well as the set-up for that issue wasn't clarified enough for us. Overall, our stay there was nice and pleasant one. less

— Sylvia, Stayed 09/09/2022

Napili Condos

Enjoyed the stay. Condo was in great condition. Good location for things we did and places to go.

— Julie M, Stayed 07/18/2022

Great stay, great value!

I’m impressed! Our 12 night stay could not have been any better! Maui has forever been my happy place in the world. Over the years, I’ve been a frequent visitor and have had the opportunity to sample a wide variety of accommodations throughout the island,... more ranging from a hammock on the beach to 5-star hotels. But Napili Bay is my favorite and Condo 217 is my home away from home. It’s been nicely updated, the kitchen has everything you’ll need and more; the shower is luxurious, the mattress was heavenly, and, at night, after a cocktail or 2 on the lanai, I slept like a baby as the trade winds kept kept the temperature perfectly cool (in July). And, lest there be any doubt, the beach — Napili’s beach is among the most beautiful in the world — is 100 steps away. Enjoy. Mahalo. less

Hidden Napili Gem

Having stayed in Napili many times, I was not familiar with this unit’s location prior to. The unit is perfectly located, very spacious, has a beach view, and is steps from the beach. I will absolutely stay here again and would recommend to anyone looking... more for a Napili, Maui stay. less

— Michael, Stayed 06/18/2022

Wonderful Condo

Great stay in Napili Bay. The condo was fully stocked and very nice. Great location and comfortable bed.

— Jill, Stayed 04/03/2022

Quiet and comfortable

My husband and I had a great stay here. The kitchen had everything we needed. The bathroom was roomy, the bed very comfortable, and the lanai charming. We love the shutter-style windows that let the breeze in all day and night. Beach access is steps... more away. Being on the second floor gave us extra privacy. There was never a problem parking. This place is small but mighty! less

— Ellen, Stayed 01/17/2022

Beautiful as always

My wife and I had a relaxing 2 weeks in unit 217 at Napili Bay. This was our third visit and each time we had easy access to the comfortable and clean accommodation. We love the laid back atmosphere, beautiful beach and no hassle check... more in. We highly recommend Napili Bay resort. less

— Christopher, Stayed 12/18/2021

A Slice of Heaven

This is my 2nd time staying at Napili Bay. It is truly a slice of heaven and one of the hidden gems of Hawaii. The accommodations are great, it has everything you need for a nice long vacation, a comfy bed, sitting area, well stocked... more kitchen, good size bathroom/shower and a small porch with view of the ocean. Its proximity to an amazing beach, walking trails, golf and shopping can't be beat. We used the BBQ area many nights and laundry is easily accessible. My favorite part was that my son could snorkle and swim with the sea turtles right on our beach! Skip the $150 snorkle tour, you will see more right on Napili Bay. Do yourself a favor and give it a try ... You won't regret it!! less

— Cheryll , Stayed 11/20/2021

Number One Napili!!

Great place! Cozy but all the space you need! Everything was well thought out and taken care of... sounds of waves crashing at night lulls you to sleep! Stay.

— Derrel, Stayed 11/03/2021

Napili Bay Stay

Very nice stay with everything provided for the room and the beach. Birds just outside the room were our morning alarm with an encore performance at sunset. The commode needs a little repair, but it was a lovely stay.

— Nancy, Stayed 10/19/2021

Great Experience

We really enjoyed our time in the condo. It was fully stocked with anything we needed and we really appreciated the umbrellas, beach chairs and cooler. The BBQ area was a nice feature and we grilled some mahi tacos down there. Overall, we had a... more blast and we would definitely stay there again! Thank you. less

— Mac & Cheri, Stayed 09/15/2021

Great time at the perfect location!!

The condo is unbelievable its like you have you own private beach went swimming and snorkeling every morning. Condo has everything you need there's a market right around the corner. If your looking for a Condo in Napili look no further!!

— Bryan, Stayed 08/07/2021

Amazing

We loved our week here! Great unit! Updated, clean and convenient location. Amazing beach! We would love to BUY a unit here. We will be back!

— Michelle , Stayed 07/19/2021

Oasis tucked in Napili

Napili Kai 207 was no ka oi. The best!! We had a large family gathering but chose to stay a half a block away where we could get respite from the grandkids! We loved the deck and our view of the ocean. The birds were... more raucous in the morning and evening! We loved it. Kitchen was very well stocked and the bbq area was a great place for family gatherings. Bed was super comfy. less

— Joan, Stayed 07/06/2021

One of our favorite locations

We love Napili Bay condo complex. Great location. Comfortable and low key with everything we need and nothing we don't. The complex is clean and very well kept. The onsite manager always works diligently to keep the place clean and everything in working condition. Some... more units are getting old and need updating though. Unit 217 is newly renovated and is very nice. Great ocean view but not noisy from the crashing wave, but we were woken up every morning around 5am with very loud bird chirping that went on for about 30 mins. less

— Bien, Stayed 05/22/2021

Wonderful vacation!

We had a wonderful time at Condo 217 at Napili Bay Resort. The apartment was very clean and fully equipped with everything you may need. We loved the beach access and everything else about our stay! Highly recommended.

— Stephanie, Stayed 04/20/2021

Love Napili

This is our absolute favorite place to stay on the island. We love the Napili Bay condos and have stayed in several of them. This was no different. A nice, simple, clean unit. We had a great time and a great experience. If I were... more to get into the MINOR details, I would say this unit probably had the nicest shower we've seen and used. It also included a variety of kitchen utensils and pots and pans that were helpful in eating there. The beach chairs are a must and they were included. I was disappointed that there wasn't any snorkel gear as most units have those, but that is easily and cheaply rectified by renting the gear. There were boogie boards. The TV was a bit small for the unit and unfortunately wasn't a smart TV so we couldn't access for example Netflix. There were a few movie channels available, but most needed to be purchased (which wasn't even an option). There was an apple TV but we could seem to make that work. I was excited to see a sonos speaker as well, but again, we couldn't seem to get it to work. My biggest complaint, though I would certainly stay in this unit again, was the bed. It was a bit hard for our liking. Not sure if it needs to be replaced, or if it is just a firm mattress, but it wasn't as comfortable as we hoped. The internet was fantastic which was a must for us. Overall it was a great unit and we'd stay there again and again. less

— Jeff, Stayed 03/08/2021

Mahalo!

We stayed in condo 217 and it was perfect! Everything we expected plus some. The bed was wonderful the view was beautiful especially breakfast on the deck. Very clean and fully stocked on essentials. Thank you again for such a wonderful stay. WE WILL BE... more BACK! less

Condo 217

Nice, updated condo. Great location.We enjoyed our stay, tried to book for next year, but were unable to do so.

— John, Stayed 02/12/2021

A Hidden Gem

My stay at Napili Bay Resort was perfect. I could not have asked for a better location. My balcony had a view of the ocean, I was able to hear the sound of the ocean from my apartment as the resort is just steps away... more from the beach. The location was a short walk to Kapalua Bay where I witnessed the most amazing sunsets. Taking a stroll in the opposite direction takes you to Napili Village where there are small shops and a food market to stock the fridge. It's a pretty laid back area which was exactly what I was looking for. I will be returning! less

— Ella, Stayed 01/07/2021

Great condo

Condo is in a great location. Very quiet, yet a short walk or drive to restaurants and shops. Beach is great. The condo was very comfortable and had a great breeze that kept the condo cool.

— Joseph, Stayed 11/10/2020

Comfortable clean & everything we needed

The condo is in a great location, super cute & clean, everything we needed ~ look forward to another visit & would definitely recommend for a fun trip to Maui.

The best place to stay!

We had an amazing time! We could not have asked for a better place to stay. This condo was stocked with everything we needed. Absolutely beautiful!

— Terrie, Stayed 03/20/2020

Great studio great view

Well equipped studio in a resort right on the beautiful napili bay. This was our 8th stay at napili bay resort and our second time in unit 217. Small quiet resort on the beach. Unit 217 is well equipped and has a very comfortable king... more bed. What more do you need. less

— Mark, Stayed 02/12/2020

Great Location

Great location to enjoy all that Maui has to offer! The unit is a comfortable place to rest from all the fun you can have right out the door!

— Patrick, Stayed 01/12/2020

Everything we needed

Carolyn and George Webb, we just spent 15 days in 217 The condo has been upgraded , for a studio it has full size everything, even the bed is a king size . This condo is near the back,of the buildings there r benefits to... more this, you get birds in the palm trees right off your deck, can hear them singing and the crickets chirping I love this, We have also stayed in the front building, you r right onthe beach with gorgeous views but that’s were all the crowds are. We definitely would stay again in 217 as u can see the beach and water from your deck. We have stayed in 5 different units in Napili Bay condos, it won’t be our last. Just a note about going off season, it’s great, less money, and half the crowds. All the units are privately owned and the decorating is up to them so check them out. less

Great valu for an amazing location!

Condo 217 was perfect for my Wife and I. It had everything we needed to make our 1 week stay feel like we're living our best lives in paradise. I love that you can hear the ocean when you wake up in the morning and... more the bed was super comfy! The walk to the beach literally takes 1 minute. I love that the owner provided a cooler, beach chairs and boogie boards for us to use which we did use everyday. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots,pans,plates etc to cook what we needed and the napili market is just down the street to stock up the fridge with food and drinks. There is an ice machine which is awesome, right next to the laundry area. This is a location where I would recommend my family and friends to stay that doesn't break the bank. less

— Alex, Stayed 10/03/2019

Condo 217

The condo was perfect. The breeze coming through the windows kept the room really cool. All the appliances in the kitchen worked great. Plenty of dish and pans. The parking was great, even coming in late space was available. I loved the beach availability, supplies... more for the beach availability of the out door shower. Thank You for allowing me to stay. Have a great week and Bless day.Debbie Watson less

— Deborah, Stayed 09/12/2019

Highly recommended

The condo we rented exceeded our expectations! It was very clean and well outfitted. It was as good or better than described with regard to the view and it’s proximity to the beach. We would definitely make a return trip.

— Grant, Stayed 08/20/2019

Adequate

Smaller than expected, but fine for two. Clean, quiet. Downside was the lack of air conditioning.

— Rickie, Stayed 07/23/2019

comfortable, cozy, and close (to the beach)

We have stayed with you before and always love the cozy, convenience. Everything we need is available. We easily cooked most of our meals at the condo and loved eating on the lanai. Thanks for providing beach chairs and boogie boards, and the bag with... more treats was a wonderful surprise. We used the bag every time we went to the beach for all our beach stuff.Your supplies made it easy to keep the condo clean. The only things I wished for were hooks in the shower to hang our swim suits to drip and dry. Loved staying. Thanks. less

— Bradley, Stayed 06/25/2019

Great Vacation

Our condo at the Napili Bay Resort was great! The view from our lanai was very private and the room was the perfect size. We stayed 7 nights, and could have stayed many more. There were tile floors throughout, which was great for keeping it... more cool during the day and easy to sweep if we accidentally tracked any sand in! The beach we had access to had great snorkeling, there were many ammenities in walking distance i.e. restaurants, surf shops, shaved ice, etc. It was a very quiet and relaxing atmospere. And above all all the staff we encountered were extremely welcoming and nice. less

Napili Bay 217

Very well appointed Excellent bed ,complete kitchen ,good TV ,nice staff

— Tom, Stayed 04/23/2019

Fantastic place to stay

The place is excellent! Very clean and with modern new appliances. There was only 1 little bump in the entire stay, and that was beyond the owner/condo/manager's realm of influence. A watermain broke and the entire area was without water for about 12 hours, but... more luckily it was overnight, so only a bit of an inconvenience. I did try to call the resident manager twice, but it only went to voicemail and I never did get a call back. The location is absolutely excellent! walking distance to the beach at Kapalua, which is great for beginner snorkelers, and the local beach is excellent for playing in the surf with boogie boards. One bay over to the left is turtle bay, which is excellent for snorkelling and filled with turtles that are relaxing and sleeping with more than a few cleaning stations. we loved every minute of our stay and would gladly return. less

— Dean, Stayed 03/27/2019

Beautiful spot

Very well kept. Nice and clean and very comfortable. We appreciated the gift bag. It was a nice touch. I was worried about no air conditioning but the ceiling fans kept us cool. It did get a little noisy sometimes but nothing too much. The... more unit was well kept and stocked with lots of kitchen items. There were also beach towels which was awesome. Saved us from bringing them. The bed was amazing! It was our first visit and we do definitely hope to return. Thank you for your generous hospitality. less

— Lynn, Stayed 03/17/2019

Peaceful in Paradise

Napili Bay is our favorite beach on Maui, and this Condo is our new favorite place to stay. It has everything you’ll need, and it’s right on the beach. The condo was perfect for us, clean, updated, comfortable. Thank you for the welcome gift basket,... more Jim!! We had a wonderful stay at beautiful Napili Bay, we will definitely be back. less

— Sandra and William, Stayed 03/08/2019

Small resort experience on Napili Beach

We had 2 great weeks in #217. We loved our stay at the Napili Bay Resort. We had everything we needed in a well appointed and comfortable studio. Not a lot of room, but it only mattered on rainy days - otherwise the beach was... more steps away and it was heaven being able to grab our chairs and umbrella and camp out there for the day - the unit was close by to go back for drinks and snacks. The whales and dolphins came out to play not far off the beach, and snorkeling was great. #217 was clean and updated. No air so it could get warm, but the fans usually did a great job of cooling down the room. Appliances are new, the bathroom is newly renovated and clean, aside from some beetles that come out just at night in the bathroom - still not sure where they came from but they disappear in the morning. Parking is really easy, laundry and BBQ facilities are close by and overall the grounds are really well kept. We definitely recommend this unit. Anyone would be lucky to stay there! less

— Heather, Stayed 02/27/2019

Loved Napili Bay!

We just returned from an 8 night stay at beautiful Napili Bay and can't say enough about our experience. Our condo was everything we viewed on-line but better. Extremely well equipped kitchen, an amazingly comfortable bed, a beautiful new shower and the soft sound of... more waves crashing. We loved the location because we were right on Napili Beach and a short walk to Kapalua Beach (which has amazing snorkeling) and the beautiful Kapalua Coastal Trail. The condo has beach chairs, towels, boogie boards and a cooler so you can pack your snacks and head to the beach which is steps away from the condo. Some of our favorite places for sunsets and happy hours were the Sea House Restaurant on Napili Beach and Merriman's at Kapalua Beach. This was my 3rd time in Maui and I love the Northwest area of the island. You are a short drive to Kaanapali and Lahaina if you want more action or nightlife. We loved our stay and highly recommend this beautiful condo should you be looking for a spot that is a bit more remote but a short drive to the busier spots. Mahalo!! less

— Joelle, Stayed 11/04/2018

We love the condo

We have stayed two times now in 217. It is very accommodating for two people. I like being on the second floor and back from the beach as it is more private. You still get a good view of the bay and we will definitely... more be staying there again less

— Raymond, Stayed 08/27/2018

Great location and price

Great location right on Napili Bay. Condo was clean and just as advertised. Suit 217 was not on the beach but had a beach view which we decided was better than "on the beach" because of the noise on the beach. No A/C but it... more was not an issue because the wind never stoppen blowing throught the condo which we lilked. Condo had 2 chairs and 2 boogey boards (only request would be to have a beach umbrella with the chairs). Overall a 5/5. We will stay here again if we come back. Mahalo. less

— Benjamin , Stayed 07/23/2018

Amazing staycation

That condo was perfect for me and my boyfriends staycation anniversary. It was comfortable and perfect size and location from napili bay! Definitely would stay here again!

— Chloe, Stayed 04/28/2018

Amazing

This condo is perfection. The bed was the comfiest out of all four places we stayed on Maui. And the cross breeze provided by the window and door shutters was AWESOME! Very clean and LOVED the welcome gift. Great touch. And beach access was seconds... more away from our front door. Loved! less

Napili Bay Resort Condo 217

I am a many time returning visitor to the Napili Bay Resort Condos and just experienced one of my best stays ever in Condo 217. From the very beginning of my inquiries to stay in this condo, to my stay and exit, it has simply... more been a great experience. Alway very timely personal contact with the owner throughout my entire experience and that has been greatly appreciated..............The condo itself was entirely comfortable and well appointed, I wanted for nothing and simply had to provide only the food and drink I wanted, to make my stay complete. Very comfortable all around, from the very cozy bed and furnishings, I was beyond satisfied. Also, the "Welcome gift" provided by the owner at our arrival was an extremely nice and welcoming gesture, and simply set a perfect tone for enjoying this awesome Maui island......I would would stay here again and again. Thank you so much less

— Rick, Stayed 03/06/2018

Review

The bathroom could use a little updating. The door could be painted at least. Our stay was very comfortable, the condo was supplied well. Thankyou very much

— Alec, Stayed 01/31/2018

Perfect Location with nice beach

Although construction site in neighborhood area we had wonderful time. Napili beach access from resort, kapalua beach 10 min walking. Close to golf courses and to my favorite Honolua bay- great snorkeling. Condo has everything you need and big advantage was mattress - we use... more firm mattress for a long time, and it was perfect (most condos we rented in past had very old spring mattresses). Mahalo Izabela and Mirek less

Highlights of Condo 217

We had a wonderful 6 days in Jim's condo #217. It was comfortable, clean, and well equipped. Having our meals on the lanai was a highlight of our day. Being so close to the ocean on Napili Bay is the BEST!!!!

— Jill, Stayed 12/17/2017

Napili Bay Resort #217

The condo was a bit small but clean and comfortable. We could see ocean from the condo and sand beach was wonderful. Our vacation was not about relaxing on beach but visiting as many places as we could since it was our first time in... more Maui. We would like to visit the condo again and hope to enjoy the beach, hopefully to stay at ocean view room. Arigato, Jim-san :) less

— Yasuko, Stayed 11/25/2017

Unit 217 at Napili Bay Resort

We love Napili Bay Resort -- this was our fifth stay at NBR and first time in unit 217. You can’t beat the location of NBR, within walking distance of two of our fav restaurants (Gazebo and Sea House) and great snorkeling. This unit had... more plenty of storage and bed was comfy. I especially appreciated the comfy couch to relax on after being on the go each day. The goody bag of snacks and water was also appreciated. Unit 217's location is perfect -- you can see and hear the waves but not the noise from beach goers. We heard a bit of construction noise from the Napili Surf Resort renovations next door, but it did not bother us. I believe the reno is scheduled for completion next month (Dec 2017). We would definitely stay in this unit again. less

— Pamela, Stayed 11/14/2017

Amazing Maui

Jim's Condo was absolutely perfect and we would not hesitate to recommend it. Tastefully decorated, fully equipped and the king bed was very comfortable! A canopy of trees, a view of the ocean and the sound of surf! What more could you ask for. Our... more Toaster broke on our second day and within hours there was a new one hanging from our door from Jim's colleague Lisa. Napili Bay is stunning and a perfect location to explore the beautiful island of Maui! less

Condo 217

We really enjoyed our stay at 217. Personally we like staying on the second floor back away from the beach where you have some privacy. There still is a nice view of the ocean from the patio. The condo is very well layed out and... more the appliances were relatively new. Jim the owner is very helpful and responsed quickly to any questions we had. less

— Raymond, Stayed 08/22/2017

We won the Maui Jackpot!

The condo was fantastic! There's nothing like sleeping on a high-quality memory foam mattress while hearing the waves crashing on the beach. With the full kitchen and grill outside we cooked some amazing meals. We were probably 200 feet from the beach and only a... more few minutes by car from restaurants and a grocery store. Lahaina is only 15-20 minutes from the condo. It made a good vacation great! less

— Ethan , Stayed 07/11/2017

Excellent!

We loved our stay in napili bay! Perfect location. Condo had all necessities. Loved sitting out on the deck. Can't wait to come back Mahalo!

Napili Bay Resort, Condo 217

We had a great time in Napili Bay for nine beautiful days in Maui. The condo was clean, conveniently located to the beach and had all the facillities we needed. We spent many long sunny days at the D.T. Flemings Beach Park, which as well... more as only being ten minutes away, has great walks and secluded beach spaces. Napili Bay is great for sunsets, which is one minute from the condo. Local facillities like the supermarket are only five minuteas away. Nice to relax on the beach, then up to the condo for a gin and tonic as the sun goes down (you can get a nice view of the beach). We enjoyed our visit. less

— Robert, Stayed 04/20/2017

Peaceful Bliss

Napili Bay is a throwback to the 60's and 70's when resorts were intimate and only 2 or 3 stories high. We have not been back for over 10 years and were dismayed at the development along Honokowai and Kahana. But Napili Bay is pretty... more much the same and these particular units are a treasure. Unit 217 is far enough from the beach so the surf is not roaring in your ears but you can still hear it as it lulls you to sleep at night. Although we had some warm days with the loss of the tradewinds, having 2 ceiling fans kept the room comfortable. We liked the jungle vegetation we could see from our lanai instead of looking right into another resort. And if we turned our heads you could easily see the beach. You are well supplied with beach chairs, beach towels, the bed is comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped. I think they have just about thought of everything to make your stay pleasant. The grounds are very nice too with a barbecue area and a laundry. Mahalo to Jim and Lisa for a very nice place. less

— Cordelia , Stayed 03/18/2017

Perfect for Us

Jim's condo was perfect for our needs. The atmosphere of the place was very mellow - not like a crazy busy resort. We loved our leisurely breakfasts on the lanai with just enough of an ocean view that we could watch whales further out. Napili... more Beach was beautiful and intimate. We used the community grill one evening and met some other nice guests, as well. If we ever get back to Maui, we would definitely stay here again. less

— RangerJ, Stayed 03/02/2017

Beachside Jungle Treehouse

A tapestry of green jungle outside your 2nd floor lanai lends a treehouse vibe and fosters privacy. The sounds of the surf are audible, but not as strong as a beachfront location; this can be very welcome if you are unaccustomed to the sounds of... more surf and trying to navigate jetlag. The combination of the visual and aural in 217 is utterly soothing. Local art, furnishings with a zen flair, and an enchanting sculpture enhance the sense of place. Fabulous proximity to beautiful sandy Napili bay, this unit is a peaceful pad in paradise. less

Perfect Size, Perfect Location

Condo 217 at the Napili Bay Resort greatly exceeded our already-high expectations. This condo is the perfect setup for a couple on vacation: full kitchen with large stove-top and oven, large fridge, and even pots & pans & spices etc for cooking; a large, very-comfy,... more king-sized bed, and huge couch and living room area; cozy lanai with a view of the ocean around the corner; a few easy steps away from a gorgeous beach with a view of Moloka'i and fairly frequent humpback whale sightings. The beach chairs, towels, and small cooler were perfect for spending time on the beach. There are a few amazing restaurants a short walk away along the beach, as well as a shopping center with more dining choices and a good sized market less than 5 minutes away by car. We're already talking about returning! -Rob & Alyssa less

Comfortable Condo

When we arrived, a nice welcome bag of goodies was awaiting our arrival. The soaps provided in the bathroom were really nice quality. I always appreciate that. This condo has upgraded tile in the bathroom and tile floors. There are also new appliances, all of... more which are in excellent condition and well-maintained. The bed is of excellent quality and the couch is especially comfortable. It has a lounge portion near the windows - wonderful! When the cable for internet was cut, the other condos were without internet, but our service was based on DSL (did I get that backwards). We were the only condo with service, which for me was very fortunate. I had to work the first few days I was there and did not need to leave the condo - in fact, I sat in great comfort on the lounge couch. The intenet speed was very good. The view to the ocean is pleasant when sitting outdoors and the overall air circulation in the condo seemed better than others we have stayed in. I noticed a few small things that could improve the overall impression. The mirrored closet doors in the bathroom need to be replaced and the sliding panel door that blocks the bathroom sink from the rest of the condo is splintered at the bottom. Oiling the cabinets would bring back the shine and remove water damage; the cabinets looked relatively new. I noticed a tile on the kitchen counter was coming loose at the end of our stay, even though we had not used that area excessively. This must be a hazard of the ocean climate. Perhaps granite would be better in the kitchen since the counter area is relatively small and the cost should not be too high. Thank you for a lovely stay. less

Best location, comfortable and clean

This was our first time to Maui and we stayed in four places around the Island, so we could see it all! We ended our trip at Napili Bay and absolutely loved this location! It is a smaller bay with amazing sand and gorgeous for... more swimming and snorkeling, to see turtles and whales, and stunning sunsets. Also, the Pavillion for breakfast on one side, the Sea House for happy hour or dinner at the other side are both great options you can just walk to! We also walked over to Kapalua bay for our best snorkeling experience on Maui. We were in unit #217, so just the tiniest view and we didn't use the patio but still we were happy to be so close to the beach. We were so happy it was very quiet, no traffic, which had been a problem at our other places.The units are small, but the bed and couch were so comfortable and everything was spotless and updated in the kitchen and bathroom. We just spent all our time outside. I would definitely stay again, great value for your money and nice people - so nice to get snacks when you arrive! less

— Kaija, Stayed 01/23/2017

Book this place before I do again.

Jim is an incredible host with a remarkable place. BOOK IT. It's in an amazing part of Napili, right on the beach and walking distant to other fantastic beaches and hiking trails. The condo was very comfortable and with the lanai peaking out to the... more water, we woke up to the sounds of the beach every morning and fell asleep to the sounds of rain against the trees at night. This part of the island is pretty special. We will definitely be back and will absolutely look to book this condo again. less

Napili Bay - 217

— Colin Dixon, Stayed 12/28/2016

always a wonderful welcome

This was the 3rd time staying at the understated, yet welcoming Napili Bay Condos. Our unit #217 was our 2nd time staying there. Trade winds seem to find our sweet unit and provide us with lovely breezes. It is located in a quiet area of... more the low-rise complex and lends itself well to meals on the lanai, which does, indeed, have a "bay view". The furnishings are lovely and well-thought out and the king bed is extremely comfortable. Jim always provides a "welcome basket" to make a weary traveler less stressed. The condo is equipped with almost every single thing one could want and need. A lovely BBQ area is below the studio, as well as a laundry hut, which also serves as a lending library and brochure center. You cannot go wrong with reserving this particular studio. Thank you Jim for our fabulous stay and we cannot wait to visit again. Aloha, Jennifer Lauri from NY less

Fabulous experience

Well, all I can say is this was the perfect experience. Everything that is described in the condo is exactly what you will find. Quiet location, steps to the beach. Beach chairs and boogie boards are included. Bed was very comfortable. Stop at the grocery... more store - either Costco or the Napili Market, which has everything and stock up for your stay. I highly recommend #217. less

Honeymoon in Napili Bay

We loved our stay at Napili Bay. When we arrived there was a gift basket for us with an assortment of local treats--this was a very thoughtful extra touch.

The room was perfect for relaxing on the beach. Very clean. Very peaceful. It is positioned in the perfect spot for hitting Napili Bay for snorkeling and swimming. Great vacation!!

— Jason , Stayed 06/10/2016

Listen to the ocean

Condo 217 is conveniently close to the lovely beach of Napili Bay. The lanai has a generous partial view and ocean sounds are clear 24/7. The condo is clean and well stocked with thoughtful extras such as boogey boards and beach chairs. There is a... more very large comfortable king bed and perfectly placed levered windows to permit excellent cross ventilation. Snorkeling was very good and the barbecue area boasts 2 large modern Kenmore grills we took full advantage of. The resort is just 10 minutes from Kaanapali and 20 minutes from Lahaina. less

One of the nicest units in Napili Bay Resort!

We have stayed at Napili Bay Resort on a number of occasions and I have to say that unit #217 is one of the nicest. The bed is heavenly - very rare to find in any rental property. They have a cushy little sectional sofa... more that was wonderful for watching a little March Madness on the TV during our stay. The unit is very clean and very well stocked and the gift bag was a generous touch. We would definitely rent this particular unit again and I'm sure we will return to Napili Bay Resort as you can't beat the very short walk from blender to beach. less

— Brenda, Stayed 03/26/2016

Excellent again

Our second stay in 217 was just as lovely as our first. The unit was clean and very comfortable. The property was immaculate, and the beach is a stones throw away. We are starting to plan our next trip here already.

— Chris and Teri, Stayed 03/25/2016

Total Delight

Everything was perfect. We had everything we needed and we slept great! Being so close to the beach was wonderful. We were even able to see whales from the limited view from the lanai. The Napili Market was also a pleasant surprise. It was no... more more expensive than Safeway for the things we bought, and was so convenient. less

— Jon, Stayed 02/24/2016

Wonderful stay

Enjoyed our stay very much. Condo location was amazing, just steps from the best little beach on Maui. Everything was very well thought out for vacationers, not just in the condo but the common areas as well. Secure beach access; fresh water outdoor shower next... more to beach; great BBQ area; icd machine, etc. Gift basket was a very nice touch. All the appliances and cookware were good/great quality. The bed was very comfortable as was the sofa. Bathroom area was a little worn but everything worked perfectly. The only nit-pick item would be soap/shampoo. It would be nice if more of both were provided. Hope to come back soon! less

My husband and I stayed 4 nights in unit 217 last week. Although it was a little small, we loved it! The bed was super comfortable, and the unit was clean with everything we needed. The best part was the fantastic location just steps from... more the beach! The beach is paradise! I love how the water glistens. And we both enjoy walking over to Sea House Restaurant for Happy Hour, appetizers, or dinner. We are now in a two bedroom condo about 2 miles away, but are missing our very convenient studio! less

Relaxing

Felt very welcomed off the bat with a great gift basket from the owner. Great hospitality! It was clean, with everything one would need. A snorkel set would have been nice to have, though. This location is great because it's a 1-minute walk from the... more beach, but it's also in the shade of trees and not in direct sun so it doesn't get out-of-control hot there. Great experience! less

— Dave K, Stayed 07/23/2014

Wonderful location and condo!

We loved our stay at Napili Bay and in condo 217. The location was amazing. We could walk 2 minutes to get to the beach and go snorkeling, walk back to the condo for lunch, walk to the Gazebo restaurant, and walk to happy hour... more at the Seahouse restaurant. The condo itself had most of the amenities needed, the bed was comfortable, beach chairs were provided, and the view from the lanai was great. We loved it and will return for our next stay in Maui. less

— Corey T, Stayed 06/02/2014

Well done!

The reservation process was very easy and we received several e-mails prior to our trip informing us of key details like directions and the lock box code. Included with the room were very nice beach chairs and new boogie boards. All of the appliances worked... more well and the WiFi had very good speed. We would not hesitate using them again on another visit. less

Comfortable and stress relief

This was our first time in Maui. We have traveled to Mexico to "all inclusives" quite a few times before and wanted to try the condo experience. We were not disappointed. The ease of traveling around the island was fantastic. It rained about 50% of... more our 9 days in Maui, but this was not an issue as we drove around by car and had a fantastic time. The condo was a great place to kick back and relax. Comfortable was the first thing that came to my mine. Everything was accommodated right down to shampoo, soap, little things like pam spray for the frying pan, salt and pepper. The gift basket was amazing and so enjoyed after a long day of travel. I read all the reviews and thought the ones on this condo were always so good and I did not have any surprises. Clean, clean, clean. Thanks for the enjoyment of your accommodation. less

The Spirit of aloha in Unit 217

When you book online, you sometimes take a chance to what it is exactly you will be walking into when you arrive. I had read the reviews on Condo 217, and it seemed to be that many people had enjoyed their stay. I have to... more admit that my expectations were met and exceeded with my stay. I had a short vacation of 3 nights, and the beauty, peace, serenity and location made this a vacation to remember. The bed is so comfortable, the sound of the waves puts you to sleep, and couch to chill out on, the lanai to enjoy a coffee or drink on, and the welcome basket was a plus. I normally stay only in Lahaina, and I took a chance on staying outside of the town. If you are looking for a lovely getaway, a beach outside your door, a welcoming ocean, and a place to just relax - this is the place to book. Thank you aloha Condos for this one-of-a-kind experience, I will be back for sure! Mahalo! less

— A FlipKey verified reviewer, Stayed 12/03/2013

Great unit

We stayed in the unit for one week and were very happy with the view and the location. The unit was a studio unit so it was small but it had everything we needed. The beach was just steps away and the snorkelling was great.... more My husband swam with the turtles right off our beach. It did not have air conditioning but with door and lanai shutters open we had a nice cross breeze. less

— A FlipKey verified reviewer, Stayed 11/24/2013

Truly refreshing in every way

When we walked into the condo we happily felt our vacation begin. We loved the island themed decorations, the sound of the waves and the gorgeous view from our private patio, the huge & extremely comfy bed, and the clean kitchen. It was home. It... more was spotless when we arrived and was easy to keep clean while we were there. The location was close to great snorkeling and other things we wanted to do. We prepared 24 meals and the kitchen had everything we needed. The landscaping was fun to look at - there were even bananas growing and an aloe patch if you got sunburnt. The wifi allowed us to post photos on the internet for our family back on the mainland. There were beach chairs, beach towels and boogie boards for us to use and even a cooler! It was the best place to stay for us because the location on the beach was incredible and everything we needed for our adventures was provided in the condo, so it was a truly relaxing and fun experience. less

— TurtleCrazed, Stayed 09/04/2013

Small but perfect!

This was my 1st time staying in Napili. This condo was impeccably clean. The cross breezes through the condo were amazing. Who needs aC with the fresh air blowing through and 2 great ceiling fans. The bed was very comfortable. And large. I didn't even... more realize there was another person in the bed next to me. This area is very quiet. By 9pm, there was only the sound of the ocean, trees rustling in the wind, and the birds. If you're into just hanging in your condo, this is not the place, as it is small. We found it perfect--as we were on the go every day, all day. The Snorkel Bobs rental is just around the corner. We got our snorkel gear day one. The markets are close by and so is the farmers market. We found this condo to be perfect! less

Tropical Tranquility

We love this property it's well maintained, clean & intimate. This marks our fourth stay at "The Napili Bay Resort" and our first time staying in condo #217. I will definitely book this unit again. I like the location of this unit (it's in the... more back) nice and quiet away from the beach. The beach front condos (stayed twice units 102 & 107 both were gorgeous) have a beautiful view of the bay but can be very noisy during the day as the beach fills up.There are mature trees right off the patio of #217 so it's very private.. The birds are lovely... it was such a pleasure to sip my morning coffee while listening to the birds. The ceiling fans insured a cool & comfortable room. I appreciated the boogie boards, chairs and cooler for our daily adventures. Can't wait to come back! less

— A FlipKey verified reviewer, Stayed 08/20/2013

A good deal for a fun time.

We have stayed at Napili Bay Resort several times but this was our first time in condo 217. For the price, we felt like it was an exceptional value. The condo is very comfy with a nice big couch and a wonderful giant bed with... more ceiling fans above. It's easy living with a few steps to our most favorite beach ever. Great for running up to the condo for lunch or snacks. The bay has fabulous, easy snorkeling. The only improvement I would make to the condo is to provide a bright floor lamp, to replace one of the little lamps, for nighttime reading. We enjoyed staying in this condo. Thanks Jim. less

Catching up on much needed sleep and relaxation!

We were very impressed with the level of ease it took to plan and implement this vacation. If you enjoy waiting in lobbies, checking in and out then this is not the place for you. The condo was clean and inviting. How could it not... more be you are in paradise right? All amenities are available to you and we needed nothing. There is a flat screen television and DVD player. Rebox is in the Napili market so you can rent movies if you want too. You are within walking distance to the beach and best of all in close proximity to the Gazebo! Finally the personal touch from Jim was what made this experience even more memorable. less

The perfect escape!

Napili Bay 217 was more than just another condo unit, it was the perfect escape, in a beautifully appointed condo, located on a pristine beach! You don't want to miss the opportunity to stay here and experienced the aloha spirit at its best. We felt... more right at home from the moment we walked in and felt the cool breeze coming from the lanai while devouring the chocolates left in the gift basket. The unit was very clean, beautifully furnished and the bed very comfortable (my wife said it was the best sleep she has had in a very long time). Just steps from this condo is Napili bay where you will find how amazing it is to simply sit and soak in the sun and views. Having the condo so close enabled us to be at the beach and walk back and forth for lunch and snacks. Overall, a perfect stay in a perfect condo! We were celebrating our 20 year wedding anniversary and booked this trip at the last minute. Jim was so helpful and accommodating to make our dates work that it made all our other planning so easy. We will be back and highly recommend to everyone reading this review...don't pass this place up. less

Nice condo in a great location.

We really enjoyed our stay at Napili Bay Resort in condo 217. It was exactly what we expected from the description and pictures posted. It is small but very comfortable for a couple and had everything we needed, including kitchen and onsite laundry. The furniture... more was nice and updated. The bed was very comfortable. The condo was very clean. The location was great. Very close to one of the best beaches and in a quiet area (compared to Lahaina-kaanapali area). I was pleasantly surprised of the view we had from the lanai. We had a red eye flight and the condo offered late check out (for additional cost) which worked out great. I would and hope to stay here again. less

Comfortable Condo on Napili Bay with all the necessary ingredien

Well appointed condo that is perfectly located to enjoy all the benefits of Napili Bay. We stayed for one week and had a great time enjoying the beach, the barbecue, and the other residents that spent time at Napili Bay that week. While the weather... more was a bit windy for sitting on the beach for a couple of our days we took advantage of all the interesting places to see around the Lahaina area and the Kapalua area.

A slice of paradise at a great price

We spent a week in Condo 217, and loved every minute of it. We felt immediately "at home." The unit was super clean, tastefully decorated in "island" style, lovely lanai with a perfect vista down to the beach and water. Also, a very well equipped... more kitchen, etc. And, for the off-season price, it can't be beat. The only negative, is that voices, sounds, can travel easily between lanais and open windows, so all neighbors need to be respectful of each other. We had one neighbor who talked on her phone on her lanai into the evening, and we could hear every word. But, she departed after 2 days. I'm particularly sensitive to quiet, and that's just the reality of units that are open, and close together. Most everyone, however, respected the evening quiet time. Napili Bay has two restaurants a few steps up or down the beach, and a small grocery mid-way. It's possible to enjoy a week, and never need a car. The daily "sunset" was a ritual not to be missed. And the water, weather and fish and turtles make Napili Bay just about perfect. less

— Craig, Stayed 12/23/2012

Fabulous!

Having stayed in two other units this one was the best so far. The owner has it very nicely furnished and it is very comfortable. It was clean, updated and had everything we could have asked for. Nothing needed to be repaired. The breeze was... more perfect, as was being tucked in the back of the complex. You can still see the ocean from your lanai and hear it at all times. We enjoyed it so much we have already booked it for next year! less

— Sherry, Stayed 12/03/2012

Everything we had hoped for

This ways my second stay at The Napili Bay Resort; the last time being 10 years ago and in a different unit. Unit 217 was perfect and has every amenity to provide all the conveniences, and then some. The unit was spotless and the furniture... more was very comfortable. We met several unit owners out at the Bbq's (which looked brand new). They're a great group of people and take a lot of pride in their property - it shows. The view from the Lanai is great and Maui never disappoints, nor does Napili Bay. Mahalo for making us feel so welcome and ensuring our every need. It was a perfect vacation. We will be back soon! less

— Rick H., Stayed 11/18/2012

Total relaxation!

We totally enjoyed our week in #217 and appreciated the quiet,laid back ambiance and being just steps from Napili Bay beach. Great attention to detail and the condo is so well equipped we could have easily stayed a month (oh how I wish!) Appreciated the... more very nice gift basket that greeted us and made us feel so welcome. Falling asleep and waking up to the birds singing in the trees just beyond the lanai was awesome. We'll be back! less

Like a second home

Clean studio with chaise lounge couch and king-sized memory foam bed. Comfortable bed + sound of waves = great sleep. Kitchen has many appliances and cookware. Thoughtfully included a cooler and boogie board for guest use. Unit is tucked away from beach, facing a small... more yard and trees with small partial ocean view. beach-front property. Close enough to hear waves but not the beach guest noise. Would definitely rent this unit again! less

A great quiet place to visit Maui without going broke!

Our stay at unit 217 was not our first one. Jim does a great job putting together an environment that is very relaxing and has what a couple needs while staying there. This trip was in celebration of our 25th anniversary and we chose to... more come back here as we knew it would be a nice and quiet place to have as our home base while in Maui. Jim had a nice welcome basket waiting for us which was very much appreciated. There are only a couple of very minor things we would include here, just for Jim's awarenesss... Specifically he might want to add a couple of more storage containers to the condo... there were not many that had lids when we were there. A couple of additional cooking spoons to be used with teflon pots would also be great. We much appreciated having a full sized ironing board as well. My husband calls me crazy that I iron my clothes when on vacation, but I do... on that topic, the iron was a bit flaky and might be on its way out... just a heads up, but we did ok with it while there. Otherwise, not a problem. The wireless was great to use to do homework on the next days activities and the bed was ultra comfortable. Thanks again Jim for having such a great spot! less

— A FlipKey verified reviewer, Stayed 08/07/2011

The best choice of the trip!

Great room, great owner (very organized and easy to work with.. no problems at all.), and a great beach!!! We drove all over the island... if you want a slightly secluded sleepy relaxing bay area to kick back and not worry about life... this is... more it! And I'm very picky. Seriously, no complaints. It was wonderful, and we will return. less

Loved it

Loved the studio apartment. The bed was comfortable and we could sit on the lanui and watch the ocean. Just a few steps to the beach. Great beach for snorkeling and swimming or just relaxing reading a book. I used to sit under this grand... more nut tree. less

— Heaven, Stayed 06/21/2011

Hard to fault anything!

What a cozy, clean, modern unit with all the comforts of home. A high end king size mattress(same as we have at home) was a pleasant surprise and dreamy. The kitchen lacked virtually nothing you wouldn't have at home, we had privacy and a comfortable... more environment to relax in. Ceiling fans and well vented windows at both ends of the unit made it easy to find a good comfort level, day or night. Although the unit wasn't "ocean front", it might as well been. You still had ocean views from the lania or a 1 minute walk through the small, secure complex to get your feet in the sand. Perfect! After numerous stays in Maui, usually in a motel type room in some resort setting with crowds, this was a breath of fresh air and we'll be back again in the future for sure. Napili Bay was an amazing, beautiful, safe bay for snokeling, swimming, bogie boards or just relaxing to watch the sunsets in one of the beach chairs provided with the unit. They also provided boggie boards, big beach towels to use and even a small cooler to keep your things cold on the beach. Unexpected pleasures you just can't bring with you. Being originally from New Zealand, I consider myself a good judge of nice beaches and the Napili Beach/Kapalua Beach area is as nice as almost anything we have at home and the best I've seen on the island!! You owe it to yourself to spend those valuable vacation dollars and time in a unit and area like this. Resturants and a well stocked General store in easy walking distance. less

Great Condo as Expected

Having stayed at Napili Bay Resort previously we new what to expect. Condo 217 lived up to oue expectations of having a wonderful, comfortable stay on Napili Bay. first time in 217 and think it is a great value in our favorite location ever. We... more can't wait to return. Appreciated the quiet, well maintained condo and dealing with aloha condos was a breeeze. less

Perfect place in Maui

We had a wonderful time in maui in our condo 217! The place is very nice and had all we need. Thank you so much for the welcome basket- the fruits were delicious. We hope to come back soon...

This was a delightful temporary home.

The unit was wonderfully compact and complete. All basic needs had been anticipated. For the large part, it was quiet, yet within reach of stores and coffee and, of course, great beaches. On the one rainy day, we just burrowed down with books. It was... more great! less

Perfect little getaway

We spent a week in unit 217 and were delighted to arrive to a gift basket and lovely presentation . Spotlessly clean, with the exception of the duvet cover. Nice furnishings, extremely comfortable bed, very cosy and private. The lanai has a good view of... more gardens and the ocean waves too. Loved the sound of the surf and birdsong. We will be back! Napili Bay is quite busy but the mornings and evenings are wonderful on the beach. less

Everything we wanted + great value

This condo was perfect - a great value for the location. Nothing fancy or pretentious - just a nice relaxing place (which is the whole point of Maui, isn't it?) Better equipped and more comfortable than home. Easy walkng to 2 great beaches was a... more big plus. Tip: if snorkling is your thing, walk up to Kapalua beach (just north) - it's even better than Napali. less

What an amazing place to stay!

There isn't anything bad I can say about Unit 217 at The Napili Bay - the location is amazing, the beach is the best i've ever spent time on.. loved swinning with four giant sea turtles right outside the condo and most importantly, the condo... more is outstanding, very comfortable and just enough ammount of rustic-ness to it to make it charming. I will be back one day soon to 217! less

We had a really good experience with aloha Condos. When we arrived there was a basket with fruit and chokolate and there was nice and clean. We felt very welcome. The Condo is very near shopping facilities, and in a reasonable distance to Lahaina where... more there is plenty of nice and cosy restaurants. Napili beach is a really beautiful beach, and we fell a sleep to the sound of the waves. We definately recommend this aloha Condo. less

Very Pleasant and affordable on Best West Maui Beach

I found this place 10 years ago from Frommer's-listed as a great, inexpensive option for Napili. First time stayed beach front and center, upstairs. This time far back, on the side, partial beach view (upstairs). I prefer the front and center beach view, but if... more you want to be a little removed from the hub-bub, you may prefer 217. Jim is very organized, sending periodic emails about your upcoming stay. I like these and found them helpful and gave me peace of mind that everything was taken care of. The room was perfectly clean on arrival. This unit does not have some of the upgrades I saw in other units (granite counter tops, newer appliances), but it was fine. Guests here tend to be quiet-definitely not a party spot, which I love. There is some early morning noise from the surrounding birds and sprinkler system. Since the birds can't be controlled maybe the sprinklers could go off a little later (8 instead of 7?). The on-site manager is super-friendly. Hot water can be a little iffy, but generally was fine-just a few times it took a while to come on. The exterior of the building could use a paint job. Jim leaves you a binder of info about the area, which is helpful. Location is super. Napili Beach is great (although a little too crowded) and the sea turtles around the corner make it all a perfect spot. less

Will be back!

Our 9 day stay at Napili Bay condo 217 was everything we had hoped for. The condo had everything we needed. The whole process was super smooth and easy. The wi-fi was excellent for picking out places to eat. The area with the washer/dryer, soda... more machine and tourist info was nice to have. The coziness and quietness of the condos is second to none. A huge plus is the beach access. It was so nice to have such a short walk down to what we thought was one of the best, if not the best beach on the island. Other then the walk to Kapalua, we had a hard time finding parking at some of the other beaches in the area. We spent a lot of time just hanging out at Napili Bay. One morning we woke up and our ceiling fan had broke overnight. We called, and within a couple hours, the onsite management, Lee I believe was there to fix it while we were at the beach. Him and his wife, and everyone else we dealt with for that matter was extremely friendly and willing to help. Spent a lot of time researching before booking this. If you're looking for a smaller, reasonably priced, quiet vacation with great beach access, this is the place for you. Will definitely try to get back to Napili Bay condo 217 less

excellent accomodations

Very relaxed atmosphere. Everyone we met at Napili Bay was very friendly and gave us some great recommendations for restaurants, etc. Loved all the handy guides left in the condo.

Fair for the price- A review from our honeymoon april '10

The Good- Reasonably priced, Safe, Nice furniture, Clean, Nice beach out back, local phone, cable, dvr, towels, boogie board, fully stocked kitchen and dish washer, welcome basket, Laundry on site. The Bad- Room is cleaned at the beginning of your stay only, No a/C, Size... more is appx 400 SF, The Ugly- Condo owner lives in Kauai and accused of being too messy, which is not true. We had to call and email several times to get the matter worked out and get our full security deposit credited back.

Beautiful Napili Bay

Our condo. at Napili Bay Resort was clean, the towels were new and clean, we had a beautiful basket full of snacks and fresh fruit as a welcome gift which was a very nice touch. The only thing that I think people should know before... more they stay at Napili Bay is that there is very little privacy. Since there is no air conditioning windows are open in everyones unit, you can hear your neighbors sneezing, eating, using the shower etc. You can also hear any conversation. If you like to be quiet and want to sit on your porch and not say anything to your travel mate that you do not want to share will your neighbors then you are fine. There is a common area with grills and washers and dryers which is well maintained but the amenities have very obviously been around and not updated sine the early 80's. Overall very shabby chic. less

— East Coaster, Stayed 05/03/2010

What can I say about the most beautiful place provided by the mo

I was most pleased with the accomodations, everything was as it was presented, and more. The welcoming gift basket was not only a nice surprise, but an added statement about this owners desire to provide his guests a true Magical Maui visit. The condo itself... more is well appointed, the island location and beach access excellent, and it attracts the kinds of people, locally and visitors alike, you would call 'friend.' less

Perfect!

I had read many great reviews of this condo, but it lived up to them all! The condo is breezy, clean and wonderfully set up. I really appreciate the good quality bed, nice sofa, TV even pretty nice cookware! Napili Bay is truly a small... more piece of heaven and I will be back! less

Napili Bay Resort - Good bang for your buck

Condo 217 was is a great condo to stay in. Newly updated, this condo was quite comfortable and very reasonable priced. The garden view (with partial ocean) was worth the savings, rather than being in a direct ocean view condo. This unit had no AC... more but wasn't needed. The TV was nice to have at night because Napili Bay is in a quiet location. Thing to note when concidering Napili Bay: 1. Vehical rental is a must. 2. Driving time is substantial to other parts of the island. 3. The beach is beautifull but may not be suitable for small childern, due to the surf conditions. 4. Napili Bay is not in the dry area of the island(it could rain briefly). 5. Leave your kids at home for this unit! 2per-max. 6. An absolute stunning beach. 7. Beach is semi quiet. 8. Good for boogie boarding. 9. Resturants on either sides of the beach(the Gazebo is tops for breakfast, but be early or wait). Access from "The Shores" or beach. 10. Groceries are a 10min walk away. less

Getting away from it all

My wife & I enjoyed the semi-isolation of Napili Bay. This bay is beautiful! The place was quaint, had a view of the ocean from the lania, a very comfortable bed and was well equipped with modern appliances, an HD TV & PVR. I must... more point out though, someone prior to our visit fumigated the place using a common over the counter spray like Raid. It was a rude awakening to discover as soon as we entered the condo. It absolutely reeked! To tell you the truth, my wife must have been really tired as I was surprised she didn't refuse to stay the night. We both had sore throats and numbed tongues the next morning. The smell lingered for the next few days. For this reason, I am reluctant to ever book this condo again as I found this an unacceptable practice. less

— A FlipKey verified reviewer, Stayed 03/11/2010

One More Week, Please!

Contrary to what you might think, being 50 yards from the beach is preferred to being right on the beach. Great privacy from your lanai without losing the whole beach affect. You can eat your meals in your boxers if you so desire! The room... more has everything, including a view, home ammenities, a great bed, a great lounging couch, a nice HD LCD tv on the wall. I wouldn't change a thing. (Especially the price. It is a bargain!) less

What a great place to welcome the new year!

We stayed in unit 217 over the new year and it was a fabulous experience. Initially, I was a little worried that the resort and beach would be noisy and crowded, as we were traveling at a very busy time of year, but it wasn't.... more The beach was busy, but never crowded and the resort itself was quiet and relaxing. Our unit was so clean and had everything that we needed. We really appreciated the beach chairs, the boogie boards, the beach towels and the little cooler. The bed was very comfortable and had a good selection of pillows to choose from. It was never too hot in the unit, even though there is no A/C. It would have been nice to have a little battery operated light for the outside table, as we ate outside each night. We loved that we could walk to so many places. Just steps to the beach, the breakfast place, the restaurant for drinks at sunset. Even the grocery store, bank and post office were only a 15 minute walk away. This was our first Hawaiian holiday and we are totally hooked and want to come back next year. less

Good job, some suggestions for new additions

First of all let me thank you for the wonderful studio you provided for our stay in Maui. I was very impressed by your attention to detail for providing all the small things like water filter, aluminum sheet for oven, beach towels and the special... more gift for us. My wife has a very sensitive stomach and as such avoids eating outside. Your well equipped kitchen provided us with most of the things we needed for our light cooking during our stay. Kudos for a good job. I would also like to suggest some more other additions that may be worthwhile for some of your future customers: 1. Providing (for a fee) a "kitchen basket" for those who are staying 2-4 days. This kitchen basket may have some vegetables like onion, cucumbers, tomato; small cooking oil bottle, butter, yogurt, milk, eggs etc. Basically, I felt if you are going to stay for a week or so, you would do these groceries yourself, if you are going to live for a night or two probably you won't bother with this. However, if you are somewhere in between, an option to avoid the grocery trip with some of the bare essentials for a fee is something that some of the folks will be interested in. 2. Providing a "share your leftovers location". We did some groceries but were unable to finish all what we bought in our short stay. We are an eco-sensitive couple and do not like throwing/wasting food items. There were some groceries that we wanted to buy but did not because even the smallest packaged item was more than what we needed for our trip (e.g. cooking oil, red pepper, eggs). We would have bought some of these had we known a place where we could just leave our left over knowing that someone in need can pick it up from there. I understand you may be concerned about some legal implication because of food hazard of expired items, but I believe you can start off this with non-perishable items with appropriate waivers. Something simple like a refrigerator in an open area or a container near the barbeque area should serve the pu less

Perfect getaway

My boyfriend and I stayed at 217 Napili Bay and we really enjoyed the suite, It really felt like a home from home. The owners left a gift basket of local fruit and snacks which was such a lovely thought and well appreciated after a... more 5 hour flight. The suite is beautifully decorated in modern style, very clean and everything you could need was there from a flat screen tv and wifi to simple but useful things like plastic food containers and a cooler box for picnics, and even dishwasher powder. Also the washer/dryer area and the bbq nearby was very handy. The only thing we felt would have been useful was a small battery operated lamp or something similar as we tended to eat dinner on the lanai at night so a little more light would have been really handy. Being so close to the beach was perfect and we definitely miss the routine of grabbing drinks, snacks and beach chairs to go watch the sunset. We'd like to thank the owners for a lovely, perfect stay and would definitely stay here again. less

Great condo, great location, good for honeymooners

My wife and I stayed in unit 217 for 4 nights in late September/ early October, 2009. The condo appeared just as I had seen it on the Aloha Condos website, and matched the reviews I had read on Trip Advisor. Although initially pleased with... more the condo, it seemed to grow even more cozy the longer we stayed. The condo owner has supplied virtually everything you'll need on your stay within the unit, including beach towels and boogie boards. The unit is recently re-furnished, with a very comfortable visco-elastic mattress and nice couches, tables, and night stands. It even has an HD flatscreen tv for watching television or movies. Nearby the condo (about .5 mi up the road) you'll find a convenient store plaza off the main road. It has a grocery store, two coffee shops, and places to catch a meal like Maui Tacos. If you're in the mood for grillin', the condo shares two large Kenmore BBQ grills that are more than adequate. One word about noise: from this unit location, the wave noise is almost nil (I was worried the units directly on the beach would get too much wave noise) and there is very little people noise (especially in comparison to the beach front units). On the other hand, there is quite a bit of bird noise in the morning (or, at least while we were there). I guess it depends on how you like to wake up! less

Great place at a very reasonable price

Great Stay at Napili Bay #217

Loved this condo. Great location with beautiful Napili Bay beach steps away and great snorkeling nearby at Kapalua Bay and Hololua Bay. We loved the natural "AC". This condo had everything we needed for our stay. Great communication from Jim throughout the process. We'll definitely... more stay again! less

— PacNW, Stayed 07/30/2009

Beautiful location and condo!

The condo was amazing and perfect for what we needed. Napili Bay is the best beach we saw while we were in Maui. You couldn't ask for a better location. The kitchen was very well stocked except I would bring some ziplock containers if you... more plan on making a lot of your own food. There were a few containers but not enough for us. We ate breakfast and lunch at the condo most days and went out for nicer dinners in the evening. We did have one small problem with bugs (termites) one day, but it was handled swiftly by the staff and we were able to continue our vacation relatively hassle free. Overall, this condo was the best condo and location for the price we found anywhere. We still think so! The bed was even nicer than our own and we thought ours could never be beat. One small note about food, don't bother eating at the Gazebo. It's rated high on tripadvisor but the food is average and birds will land on your plate without hesitation (gross!). Definitely eat at Roy's (incredible food and about 2 miles south of the condo). less

— kwpoirier, Stayed 07/09/2009

Most comfortable vacation ever

If we had known the condo was so comfortable and there's so many more things to do in West Maui, we would have stayed couple more days. The price for the condo was very reasonable. It was clean and equipped with everything we need. I... more was surprised it even had 2 beach chairs, 2 boogie boards and 2 beach towels ready for us to enjoy the beach which is just behind the condo. The simplest thing sometimes is the most important. The bed sheets, comforter, and the bath towels were soft, the pillows were firm. We slept so well every night. Even though there were many restrictions in the condo such as you can't hang anything on the patio railing to dry your wet swimwear or towel, there is a cloth liner in the bathroom for you to do that. At first I wonder if we would stay cool in the condo with just 2 ceiling fans but to our surprise, it kept us comfortable through the night. With the free Wi-Fi internet, we were able to access the internet to search for near by restaurants and to get directions. Lastly, I regret not writing in the guests book. Most importantly, I forgot to read the guests book because many previous guests had left very important travel information such as the best beach to hang out, restaurants, and shopping. Thank you for the wonderful experience Baptista less

#217 - Perfect again!

This was the second time my husband and I stayed here; the first being last July for our honeymoon. #217 is perfect because it's very private, but still steps away from the beach. It's close enough to everything (Front Street is only a few miles... more away). Jim is an excellent host and left us a really nice basket with fruit and candy - the managers onsite are also great, they checked in with us a few times when we arrived to make sure we had everything we needed. The unit is clean, has new furniture and is very cozy. We cooked a lot of the time on the barbeques downstairs this time; the last time we ate out a lot but we felt the food was so much better when we made it. There's a great ethnic market a few miles away where we got a lot of great seafood really cheap and grilled it. The beach was semi-crowded, but never overly so. (it's a private beach). I would highly recommend this unit for 1-2 people; it's a studio condo and not huge but roomy enough with a fully stocked (utensils and stove, dishwasher, etc) kitchen, private lanai outside, and swimming gear like boards and floaties. If you prefer being around tons of people and like more touristy hotel settings, then this wouldn't appeal to you. But if you like your privacy and don't want to feel like you're up to your ears in people, this is an excellent choice. less

Malia's Maui Experience

My brother booked this property for all of his wedding party and our family. We had an absolutely wonderful experience and would love the opportunity to return. Lee was very hospitable toward us and does an amazing job of keeping the property looking beautiful &... more immaculate. The location is wonderful and Napili Bay beach is beautiful. It was great having that beach feel like "our" beach. There is enough to do there if you don't want to go exploring around the island, and it's wonderful to be right on the beach so it's easy to take snorkel gear, etc. with you from your room. It was wonderful that we had a welcome package waiting for us in our condo, and there was snorkel gear, beach chairs, & other equipement there for us to use. The condo was very nice, even better than in the pictures. We felt very safe in this location, and at such an unbelievable price!

The beach is sooo close

Napili Bay is simply amazing. Nice little beach with great boogie boarding and sunbathing and snorkeling. The condo had everything we needed and was very well put together. We shopped at a grocery store that was just up the road, and were able to make... more all of our meals (including cocktails, more below) at the condo. Jim had beach towels, and beach chairs for us along with two boogie boards that we "shredded" with :) I was also able to keep up with my work with the wireless internet connection (as well as making our friends jealous with pictures), while sipping fresh kona coffee from the lanai. Every evening at Napili Bay the residents take cocktails and beach chairs out onto the beach to watch the sunset. Truly magical. Thanks Jim! less

Great Quiet Getaway

Found the Napili Bay through tripadvisor.com and had read many consistent reports, so my wife and I thought we'd give it a try. We were not at all disappointed. First of all, the location is fabulous. We never needed to leave Napili, and the bay... more is wonderful. If you get tired of snorkeling and swimming in Napili Bay, you can always make the 10 minute walk over to equally stunning Kapalua Bay. The property itself is small, quiet, and you literally walk out onto the sand. There are a few peculiarities, which we quickly got used to. It might take a night or two to get used to the noise of the pounding surf. The condos are always open....no glass, only screens and shades. No A/C but we never needed it and enjoyed the openness. The condos are only about the size of an average hotel room, but that's all you need. Kitchens are fully functional, well-stocked, and clean and new. Stop at Costco (by the airport) or Safeway (Lahaina) and get your groceries and you won't need to leave. There's a small grocery store with a few other stores (including Boss Frog snorkel rental) just up the road. In a sense I hate to write such a positive review, cause I really don't want the Napili Bay to become hard to get into. It's not a big resort, not for kids, and not super elegant. It's just an excellent quiet place for a couple to get away and be lazy! We love it and are returning soon. less

Great location, good price

We loved the proximity of this place to the beach and the unit itself was comfortable. We forgot the code to get in the door so we had to stay at the hotel next door for one night. The owner of the condo called us... more back the following morning with the code, but we had already been charged for that night of course (even though we didn't use the condo). We wished there had been someone on the island who could have helped us at the time- our perhaps a number that we could have called after hours to get the code. less

Great place to stay on Maui. A few steps to Napali Bay, one ot the best beaches on Maui. Well furnished condo at reasonable prices.

Paradise at it's Best

This was probably one of the most relaxing vacations I have ever had. It was a quiet location and while others were fighting for parking to be able to enjoy Napili Bay we just had to walk across the property and we were in turtle... more heaven. The room was clean and very comfortable. The kitchen was well supplied and I can hardly wait to return. If you have a car and don't mind driving around a bit this place is for you. You are close to some great beaches, but you will have to drive to get to them. Napili itself is right there, but it is fun to explore other beaches too. Not many resturants within walking distance. I am planning to return to Napili Bay. We absolutely loved it. less

Affordable and Enjoyable

We really enjoyed our stay in Napili Bay. The condo was really well kept and there was everything that you ever need/want. The only drawback was the wind. WOW! That part of the island is fantastic but alittle isolated....which was good for us! I would... more recommend the condo for anyone on a budget, anyone wanting to "get away" from the bustle and a as a great place to relax! Thanks. less

Can't Beat the Value

This was our third rental of Unit 217 at Napili Bay. The location is fantastic. Eating breakfast on the lanai while watching humpbacks breach is something special. The beach is great, as is the proximity to Kapalua and Lahaina (close enough to restaurants, golf, etc... more without being swamped with traffic). The condo is perfect for a couple, and we especially liked the sound of the ocean at night. The only downside was having an inconsiderate neighbor for a couple of nights who played their TV (loudly)all night--I guess to drown out the the sound of the ocean. Otherwise, we'd have rated this perfect. We will rent Unit 217 again on our next trip to Maui. less

Unit 217 - Napili Bay : Simply Wonderful

We stayed in Unit 217 for 10 days last October. This was our second stay at the unit in two years and once again it lived up to our expectations. It is a pleasure dealing with Jim/Aloha Condos and the rental process, from initial booking... more right through to completion of our stay and return of deposit, was handled efficiently as always. The unit is as described on the website and was extremely clean and very well presented (and this is from somebody who is VERY picky (NB: see observation below*)). We were greeted with a welcome gift basket on arrival - a nice touch. The unit was well stocked with linens/towels/pots and pans etc and you couldn't want for anything when preparing meals. It had its own boogie boards and beach chairs/coolers/towels. Although the unit does not have air-conditioning (it has ceiling fans, however), I can honestly say that we never felt uncomfortable with the heat at any stage during our stay; the winds kept the unit cool and ventilated throughout the day/night (we have stayed in a similar resort in Kauai and this was problem). The amenities on-site were great - we made use of the 2 communal barbeques and washers/dryers. The resort grounds were well maintained, and the staff were very friendly and courteous. We have stayed in 3 different units at Napili Bay and on two occasions in 217. Personally, we prefer Unit 217 for location, as it is just off the front of the beach (to the side, but still with a great ocean view) and provides a little more privacy during the late afternoon/early evening whilst relaxing on the balcony. *One observation from last year's stay was that in our opinion the living area seating appeared a little worn due to wear. I note, however, that whilst looking at Unit 217 recently, Jim has renovated all the living/sleeping area furniture and furnishings and the unit looks fabulous. Congratulations once again to Jim for making our stay a most memorable one. less

Can't wait to get back

You always take a chance reserving a vacation rental on-line, will it turn out to be as nice as advertized? In this case it was better than we hoped. From the fruit basket greeting, to sitting on the lanai watching the whales, to sitting on... more one of the prettiest beaches we've seen in the islands, this was a truly wonderful vacation condo. While the north end of the island is perfect for a quiet vacation, you had a grocery store and snorkle shop just a couple of minute walk from your door, and a nice beach stroll to oceanside dining or cocktails at sunset (which was not blocked by the offshore island). Not only would we stay here again, if we could afford it we'd buy a unit. less

Vacation

The condo was wonderful! Upon entering the condo there was a great gift basket waiting for us. It was a great place to call home for the week. Unfortunately during our visit in Hawaii it rained the entire week and we spent the majority of... more our trip indoors, so we were very pleased to have some a wonderful, cozy place. less

Paradise Found

Maui was beautiful and this unit made our stay in paradise perfect. We were welcomedon our first day with a lovely fruit basket. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed and the bed was comfortable. The complex was quiet. We sat out on the... more lanai each morning and watched the dolphins play. We were steps to the beach which was just gorgeous. Beach chairs and a cooler were even provided. Snorkeling was great-lots of turtles call Napili Bay home. There is no air conditioning in the unit which was not a problem for us due to the great breezes but it's something to be aware of. I would prefer to stay here than in the noisy, crowded beachfront resorts. If your looking for a peaceful getaway, this is it. I have nothing bad to say about our experience in Unit # 217. Would stay there again in a heartbeat. less

Great Location

My husband and I planned a last minute vacation to Maui and found a piece of heaven at Napili Bay. The complex is more "old hawaiian" style and the studio is nice for a couple. The view from the balcony was terrific and we saw... more many whales. The condo had everything we needed for our stay, ie full kitchen, beach chairs, beach towels, cooler, wave boards, etc. Check in was easy since you get the key code prior to arrival. Rocco made the reservation process so easy and was very helpful. We have been to Maui several times, but have never stayed in Napili. It was great to get away from the crowds and enjoy the beach which is just steps away from the condo. The condo was clean and well kept. There was no air conditioning but had a nice breeze at all times. Once negative was the walls were a bit thin. A short drive or walk to the Ritz resort area is great for a nice dinner out. We will definately be back. less

Perfect Getaway

We love The Napili Bay Resort! I saw somewhere that the loose motto of this place is, "Beach chairs and boogie boards." This sums up the experience save one key piece. The community (I almost say family) of The Napili Bay Resort is really nice.... more When you stay there you meet almost everyone. You meet them on the beach every afternoon for cocktails and sunset viewing (drag your beach chair out there) and later in the evening there is an informal bbq session where everyone sits around the courtyard to "talk story." Beautiful beach out in front and some nice little tide pools for checking out. Also, it's away from the rat race of Kaanapali Beach :) -roccit less

A heavenly week in heaven

The room was great and close to the bay, but not too close. The surf was a little noisy when we stayed at beach unit 5 years ago. The surf noise reminded me of the industrial plant I worked at. That is why 217 was... more just perfect. The tree on the beach is fantastic!!! less

Fantastic Value

We stayed at Napili Bay Condo 217 for our honeymoon and could not have been happier with our experience. The place was clean and had a relaxing tropical feeling. We found that it was nice to be in the building that was not directly on... more the beach, as it felt a bit more private. The bed was very comfortable, and the kitchen and refrigerator were very convenient to have. The beach at Napili Bay is beautiful, and we enjoyed snorkeling in the bay, especially in the early mornings. We hope to return to the Napili Bay soon and definitely recommend it as an excellent value and a wonderful relaxing experience. less

Family's Favorite Vacation Home

Napili Bay Resort (NBR) is my family's favorite vacation spot and Unit 217 is our favorite vacation home rental. We have rented vacation homes in Europe, Canada, Mexico and across the US. We always return to Napili Bay as our vacation place of choice. Napili... more Bay offers my family a safe, comfortable and relaxing environment to spend our vacations. The key attraction to Napili Bay Resort is convenience. If we choose to sightsee, NBR is close to so many attractions, restaurants and shopping. If we choose wind-down, NBR gives us the chance to sit on the beach, swim and only worry what to have for our next meal. For families with youngsters, NBR is in an ideal location in a quiet residential neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle of mega-resorts. We have been coming to NBR for ten years and will continue to make it our prefered vacation spot for many more. less
