Honokowai ~ West Maui

Just north of the Kaanapali Resort is the oceanside community of Honokowai, which begins where the Lower Honoapiilani Road turns off toward the ocean from the “Upper Road.“ Here the larger complexes give way to individual residences and low- to mid-rise vacation condominiums. Many of these legacy properties are built right on the beaches with their own access to the water and spectacular sunset views across the Maui Channel to the neighbor islands of Lanai and Molokai. Expect to witness sea turtles basking and, during season, humpback whales breaching just offshore.
