Centrally located between Ka'anapali and Kapalua you will find yourself close to a grocery store, the farmer's market, the fish market, shopping and many restaurant's. Depending on the tides the property provides a small beach out front that is great for swimming and snorkeling. ABOUT THE CONDO... This beautiful direct oceanfront STUDIO is located in beautiful West Maui along the North Ka'anapali coast. While relaxing on your private lanai, you have incredible views of the islands of Moloka'i and Lana'i. Even though this condo is on the 1st floor, it is above ground level, so you can leave you lanai doors open and take advantage of the breezy trade winds and the musical sounds of the pacific. The breathtaking Hawaiian sunsets will be a lasting memory. Listen to the local sounds announcing the sunset every evening, by the blowing of the conch shells up and down the coast line. The tropical grounds of Paki Maui include a tranquil koi fishpond and waterfall that greets you make your way to the condo. The ocean front side of the condo/ lanai has a grassy lawn area of about 30 feet between you and the ocean. It's just perfect for sunbathing with lounge chairs and tables to help you relax. From the lawn area there are 5 or 6 steps that lead you to protected waters - ideal for snorkeling, and swimming. During your snorkeling experience, you may see the magnificent Giant Sea Turtles, many tropical fish and colorful coral. There is a gated heated pool and Jacuzzi area surrounded by lounge chairs and beautiful Hawaiian flowers and plants. You may choose to barbecue your meals on the two gas BBQ grills in the pool/cabana area or use the charcoal ones that are located in the lawn area, ( not gated ). Enjoy your meals on your oceanfront private lanai. Many of our guests consider the newer BBQ's on the lawn area to be the "Gathering Place" where you can meet and chat with some of the other guests staying at Paki Maui. If your travels bring you to Maui from mid-December through April, you will be treated to the magical experience watching the migration of the incredible Humpback whales to the warm Maui waters. Watch these “gentle giant’s” frolic in the channel from your lanai or book a trip on a local whale watching boat where whale sightings are practically guaranteed during this time. Pods of spinner dolphins and giant green sea turtles can be seen year round. Occasionally you will see a Monk Seal that stops by for a long needed rest in the near areas. This unit (#102 A) is a Studio condo. What is so unique about this spacious studio is it's SIZE. It's the same square footage as the one bedroom Condo's located at Paki Maui. Your King Size comfy bed sits close to the sliding glass doors. The sounds of the ocean will lull you to sleep only to be awakened by lifting your head off the pillows to see the Islands of Lanai and Molokai. There is stone flooring throughout the unit and beautiful coffee green marble counter tops. The remodeled bathroom has a nice tiled shower with sliding glass doors. The sink/vanity area is separate from the shower area for privacy. The kitchen has everything you need from a blender to a toaster and is stocked with utensils, pots and pans, dishes and glassware. Paki Maui does not allow air conditioners to be installed, so there are ceiling fans throughout the condo for your comfort, even two in the spacious kitchen to help with the days of no trade winds. If it is time for a low key 'no worries' vacation, then this condo located at Paki Maui Resort is the place for you! Need more space? We also manage the adjoining one bedroom condo, unit #102.
