2 Bdrm Condo across Kahana beach in West Maui

We have the Best of Everything Enjoy your vacation at the beautiful and tranquil Pohailani Resort in Kahana. Located on Maui’s famed Westside you will be steps away from sandy Kahana Beach, shopping and restaurants. Lush tropical landscaping surrounds 2 pools, several barbeque areas, laundry facilities and a tennis/basketball court. Kana’apali Beach is 5 minutes away and Lahaina Town is just 10 minutes away, by car or public transit. Just some of the many reasons why Pohailani Resort is so popular with residents and visitors alike. The moment you arrive on Maui you will realize why you came. The warm feeling of tropical breezes and the famous warm Maui sunshine will make you feel that coming to Kahana is the best vacation decision you could have ever made. The Kahana area is on the west side of Maui just north of historical Lahaina. Our complex is very large and extends right up to the ocean. Most of the units are arranged around the the outside of the grounds, and the large interior grounds have with lots of trees, grass, and lush vegetation in a park-like setting. The pools and BBQ areas are all on the inside area. The units are not set up like typical condos. The complex is made up of individual private duplexes (each building has only 2 units - 1 upper like ours and 1 lower) so there are no adjoining walls with other units. This allows the upper units like ours to have vaulted high ceilings. The ocean at Kahana Beach is just a few steps away from our unit about 80). You can access the beach by walking through the left side of the Hololani Hotel right in front of our unit. Kahana beach usually has calm seas and good snorkeling. The beach gets wider as you go south. The lagoon/inner-reef directly in front of the complex is a wonderful place to explore. There are also many, many other great beaches within a short distance of the unit. If you do not have snorkeling or diving gear, we have some in the unit, or it can be rented at Boss Frogs which is a 1 minute walk next to Dollies Pizza. The Kahana Gateway Shopping Center is only a 1 minute walk away. You can get there from the back of our complex without having to go on a public road. There you will find a general store, restaurants (Roys, Maui Brewing Company, and Angus Steak House), banks, gas station, a coffee shop/internet café, McDonalds, and shops providing locally-made and imported items. Just a short distance (1 minute walk) down Lower Honoapiilani
Road is the Valley Isle Resort, the home of the Valley Isle Fitness Center. If you’re missing your daily workout at the gym "back home" – this is the place to go. Of course there are so many other places and beaches close by that you will also want to explore. Whalers Village and the Ka’anapali beach area is just a 5 minute drive, and the he shops and galleries of Lahaina Town are just a 10 minute drive.

There are so many things to do on Maui for any age and budget. There are too many to name. We have listed a few things we like to do below. These are just a few of the options.

1) World Class Beaches.

2) Snorkeling. Snorkel at Kahana Beach less than 2 minutes from our front door, or at any of the many other beaches close by. There is also a Snorkel/Surf rental shop right next door.

3) Snorkel/Whale/Dolphin Watch trips. There are many companies offering this, usually leaving from Lahaina or Kanapali. Try the Lanai trip with Paragon Sailing Charters. Known as the pineapple island, Lanais hidden secrets include spinner dolphins off the white sand beach at Manele Bay. The underwater treasures are so unique that Lanai has been rated one of the top 10 snorkel destinations in the world.

4) Luau. Try the Old Lahaina Luau voted Best Luau on Maui for the fifth year in a row. Very Hawaiian.

5) Shopping/Dining. Take a Sunset walk on bustling Front Street, Lahaina with many stores, shops and restaurants. Have a drink at Kimos. Dinner at Lahaina Grill is tasty. Roys and the Maui Brewing Company are right next to us in Kahana. Whalers Village at Kaanapali Beach has a great shopping plaza and lots of beachfront restaurants. The Lahaina Cannery Mall has lots of shops, restaurants, and Starbucks. The new plaza across the street has all kinds of shops including a Barns and Noble book store with Starbucks inside (nice!).

6) Surfing. Rent a surfboard at Boss Frogs next to us and try surfing any many of the beaches. Kaanapali beach offers lessons and beginner surf. Ask Boss for directions to other spots.
