Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
Really outdated sofa bed had a smell also really old the bedroom smells old that suite really needs updating but the view it was really nice
We moved our stay at the Papakea resort. It was close to lots of things, very clean, and our room had a beautiful view. The light went out in our bathroom and the staff were quick to come and fix it which was great. A couple things that could be better with our specific room and not with the resort overall is that there was very little kitchen equipment and zero Tupperware containers. Lucky we weren’t planning to do very much cooking but it would’ve been a challenge if we had. The knives were super dull and had rust on them but we made due. Overall this is a great resort and we would come back but these are a couple things that if addressed would make this unit even better!

Beautiful condo and beautiful property! We weren’t originally booked to stay here, our original accommodation fell through hours before leaving for the airport and we rebooked here very last minute and we couldn’t be happier with this place! 100% recommend to anyone and we will stay here again if we ever come back to Maui!

Nice staff, beautiful grounds and ocean view! Liked our villa but the 2nd bedroom is a loft so any early risers had to be extra quiet as sound carried up. Not a big deal but would have preferred 2 enclosed. Even still I would recommend the unit and the complex. Given all the positives it is a good value as well.

My wife and I absolutely love Papakea. We stayed there ten times since 2003 and the great guest service and the property’s cleanliness has been consistent over the years.
It is highly recommended and we plan on going back numerous more times.

The staff was wonderful. The view was amazing. I wish the pool opened earlier. It is open from 9am-10pm. Early morning swim would have been nice. But otherwise, it was just beautiful. Will definitely book again.

We had a fabulous ocean view. We ate most of our meals on the balcony. It was terrific. We wish we'd had more help figuring out transportation, but once we were there, it was fairly simple.

We had a ground floor ocean front room. It was grea! Property is well maintained, right next to the ocean (we were at 20 meters from it).
Bonus - parking is free.

The view from the balcony was amazing. The a/c was great. Really like the convenience of this area for coffee/food. The property is beautifully maintained. A few kitchen items were not available.
Location and beautiful maintained grounds. We were unhappy with the lack of maintainance and cleanliness of our room. There was a moldy, used coffee and filter in the coffee machine. Also there was moldy dirty dishes in the dishwasher which was out of order. We also had no beach towels. There were also chips in the floor in the kitchen.

Resort grounds were great, clean and very manicured. The room was very clean, our unit had a couple issues like bedroom fan not working, and showers would not drain quick. Other than that everything was nice. It says online there is a gym but it is actually at the neighbouring hotel and it says for a “Fee” we never looked more into that. Pools were clean, lots of shopping around and the best cinnamon bun we have ever had just outside the property

Very clean and friendly. The master bedroom having huge windows facing the ocean was a beautiful surprise. I would stay here again, however, the only thing missing, that would've made it a 5 star review, would be to add A/C to both bedrooms. It was very hot in the rooms at night.
