Napili Kai Condos

Napili Kai Resort is a condo complex at the north end of Napili, just south of Kapalua, about 15 minutes north of Kaanapali Beach. Phone 808-669-6271. Napili Kai Beach Resort is in a beautiful quiet beach location on Napili Bay. There are four swimming pools, a large outdoor whirlpool spa, an 18-hole putting course plus a smaller putting course for children, free parking and no resort fees. The beach cabana has free coffee and juice in the morning, and they have free lei making and hula lessons. Children’s activities are also free, making this a good place for families.

There’s even a weekly keiki (children) hula show (not free). (Call to check for any change in charges for any of the above.) There can be a little more rain in the Napili area than in Kaanapali, primarily in the winter. The Seahouse Restaurant on the property has beautiful sunset views. This is one of the larger and better accommodations in the Napili section of west Maui. Its 11 buildings (mostly 2-story) have a total of 162 units, including hotel rooms, studios, one-bedroom and two-bedroom condos. Most have kitchens and almost all have a partial ocean view. Most, but not all, are air conditioned. Built in 1962.

Three of the buildings have had beautiful new renovations in 2010-2012, and those three buildings are called Puna Point, Puna 2, and Lani 2. Those three buildings are on a rocky shore, not as close to the beach as some of the other 8 buildings. But I still recommend that you reserve a room in one of those three recently renovated buildings. Puna Point and Puna 2 have better ocean views than Lani 2, and they have air conditioning, so Puna Point and Puna 2 would be the best buildings to stay at, in my opinion.
