We absolutely loved our stay. The condo is exactly as described. The view from the lanai is unbelievable!! The sunsets are stunning. You are so close to the water. Close to the beach. Lots of nearby beachfront dining options. Used the pool, the 12 hole putting green and the pickleball courts. Highly recommend. Hope to stay herre again
We loved our stay in this beautiful corner condo…. The view and comfort from the lanai was amazing. We already miss the sound of the pounding of the waves. Leaving the sliding glass door opened every night, we slept soundly to the waves on the most comfortable mattress ever…. Located above the pool, access was great. Parking was so easy as well. Saw whales and turtles daily. It was our little oasis. Would love to return again soon…. Wes & Mary Beth, Dec 2-13, 2025
We stayed at Papakea many times but never direct ocean front. Loved watching the sunsets from the lanai in the evening. The unit is very comfortable and very well appointed with the exception of a safe. We managed without. Will definitely be going back. Thank you for sharing your experience/home with us.
The unit was very clean, updated, and had everything we needed. Hosts had plenty of kitchen utensils, pans, and necessary baking sheets for the outdoor grill. Bed was comfortable, bathroom was great with the double vanity and overall we would absolutely rent again. Very grateful for our time there.
This is the most amazing unit. It felt too good to be true when I booked it but it is just as pictured. The front balcony is incredible. I highly recommend!
