I need a do over
I stayed at Napili Bay Condos from July 27 to August 3. I have nothing bad to say about unit 209. It is, by far, the sweetest view, most beautiful location of all time. I am not sure how many times I have stayed here,... more
but many. Not just in 209, but several others, as well. I always prefer 209. Now, the cons. For the first 4 nights, a group decided to party on the beach, right below my lanai, until midnight. They were drinking and getting loud, with no regard for folks right there in the condo. I believe it was a group of locals. Not sure if any permanent residence of the condos were participating. Not causing trouble, just having fun, but very loud. I thought there were some rules about drinking alcohol on the beach. After my own adventures of the day, I would return to the condo at around 9. That is just about the time the party on the beach began. They were so loud, even the sound of the waves were drowned out. So, I got some sleep after midnight. I remember the days when I would travel to this condo for a little R&R. Well, the secret is out about Napili Bay. Very crowded, which is cool actually. Obviously, people love this beach as much as I do. I do not believe the condos followed the 2 persons per room rule, as there were lots of people with kids. I don't care about that, but there was not a lot of peace and quiet on the trip. I appreciate that it is summer, and families do come to Maui. So, I am not complaining, because the beauty of this place is still remarkable, but if you are looking for a nice quiet get away, this is not it right now. Again, the view from the unit is unmatched.

Owner/Manager Response
Aloha Jeffrey,
Mahalo for the review. We're glad to hear you prefer unit 209 of all the units at Napili Bay! We also think it has the best view!! We're sorry to hear that folks on the beach were inconsiderate and continued on after quiet hours began at 10pm. We hope you'll return for the "do over" this fall or winter when the beach tends to quiet down.
With aloha,
Amy
Another great stay!
Perfect location, 209 is an upstairs corner unit with the best full view and 209 is the closest condo to the water anywhere along Napili Beach. Turtles swim by every afternoon. Snorkeling is amazing. Sound of the gentile waves lapping up on the shore at... more
bedtime just 20 feet away is wonderfully soothing. Well stocked condo. Very helpful owner. 208 and 207 are also very nice.

Great little condo
We like easy access to the beach, and the Napili Bay is about as close as you can get. Unit 209 is a bit dated - kitchen and bath could use an upgrade - but they are perfectly functional, and the location makes up for... more
any shortcomings. Down the stairs and you're on the beach, and this corner unit has a great view! We also really enjoy the barbecue area and a great blender in the evenings, and there is always plenty of parking available (unlike some Napili Bay properties). A few small nitpicky wishes - that a beach umbrella was furnished along with the beach chairs, that the fridge still had all its interior parts (drawer, butter holder cover missing), and that the shower had more pressure and less extreme variation in temp during a 5 minute shower. But as I said, it all works well enough and we certainly hope to return.

One of our favorites though the inside is getting dated
Napili Bay is our favorite condo complex due to its location, its beach access, and its well maintained amenities. This is a corner unit facing the ocean on the top floor and a coveted unit with the most amazing view. However, the interior is very... more
used and outdated.

Aloha Bien! Mahalo for rebooking already for next year. We look forward to welcoming you back. The location and views are truly unmatched and we rarely have complaints about the interior. We sincerely appreciate your feedback and will take your observation into consideration.
great location
NO pool on site but its right on the beach! Great walks along the ocean going towards the Ritz, very beautiful area if you get out and explore. The Gazebo for breakfast is a must try. There is a grocery store down the street but... more
I highly recommend a stop at Costco when you depart the airport.

The Aloha Spirit Lives!
This was our second time at the Aloha Condos; my wife and I were here at the recommendation of her cousin five years ago to celebrate our twenty-fifth wedding anniversary. We enjoyed it so much the first time around that we were thrilled to discover... more
that there were was an opening left for our favorite unit when we decided to come back for our 30th. Honestly, you can’t beat the value of this place - by FAR the best deal that we’ve found on Maui, and the beach at Napili Bay is amazing! What really impressed me this trip, though, was the friendliness of the other guests - in particular a large group that was also from the Midwest who helped orient me to the outdoor grill-scene. (BTW, those new Weber gas-barbecues are terrific!!) These folks were extremely welcoming and fun-loving — the embodiment of the “Aloha Spirit” that makes Hawaii, and Aloha Condos in particular, so special. Thanks for another great vacation at your fabulous resort!!!

The Perfect Condo!!
It doesn’t get much batter at Napili Bay Condos than this unit!! Ocean front, second level, on the corner. We spent 12 days there through the Christmas holiday and it was simply heaven! We were walking distance to Merriman’s (which I prefer over Mama’s Fish... more
House) and the lovely Gazebo. We’ve stayed at this complex several times but this time we splurged on this very special unit. Like someone else said, I hate to rave too much because it will increase demand. So shhhhh!! ;)

Wonderful Spot in Maui
I choose Condo 209 due to everyone else's reviews. Yes, you can't go wrong with this place. It's a corner unit, with quick access to the wonderful beach. I'm not a fan of anyone on top of my unit due to proverbial noise from the... more
upstairs unit. This room is on the 2nd floor (top) and there's no noise, other than the pounding surf. If the surf is too loud, just close the shutters at night. Just right a corner is where they start the Ironman and Xterra Games. Simply gorgeous location! The room is very nice and even has boogie boards to use. When we come out there again, this will be the place we want to come back to. Hands down, great location, unit and they even let us in earlier than planned, as the plane was an early one.

It can't get much better
I stayed in unit 209 from 1/18/19 till 1/25/19. I have stayed in several units at this complex. I prefer 209. Not sure how many times I've stayed in that unit, 4 or 5 maybe. It is not a brand new place, but it is... more
perfect for me. I am a single traveler, so perfect size. It is right on the beach, lanai basically hangs right over the sand, with the water 50 feet away. The place and grounds are super clean and comfortable, well maintained. The owners and managers just do a great job. This trip, the weather was perfect, lots of whales out int the channel, turtles all over the place. To be honest, if I could spend the rest of my days at this little condo, I would. What more can I say? I hate to give such good reviews, because the place becomes less available, more popular, the price goes up. It is still a great bargain on this beach. Thank you Chuck Buser for maintaining this great place.

Perfect location on a beautiful beach
The location of the Napili Bay Resort is perfect for getting away from the crowds of Ka'anapali,and Lahaina, yet is just a short drive away when the urge hits to visit those areas. This studio condo is a corner unit on the top (second) floor... more
of the complex and affords beautiful views of Napili Bay and beyond. You are just steps to the beach which can become crowded through the day but the nearness allows you to be lulled to sleep at night by the waves. The condo is well equipped for beach activities but a,little lacking in cooking condiments, so bring your own spices. The welcome tote bag with goodies was a very nice greeting upon our arrival. The Sea House and Gazebo restaurants are both within easy walking distance at either end of the beach for those times when eating in is not an option, although sunset meals on the lanai were amazing. Overall, a very nice condo with a perfect location on a lovely Maui bay.

209 is an excellent unit with a perfect view of Napili Bay. The owners and local contact folks are awesome to work with and helped me extend my stay because I was having such a good time. The unit was also very clean and well... more
equip. The reason this is a 4.5 and not a 5 star review is that the unit could be easily improved to 5 stars plus with some simple updates as some of the furnishings are dated and the bathroom (while although satisfactory) needs remodeled to be much more modern. If you are into the retro beach bungalow vibe then this place will be your jam. I am into modern design but that's just me. I would 100% stay there again and for the price I paid it was worth every penny.

(Merrimans has live music during happy hour daily) as well as 2 awesome beaches great for lounging, snorkeling and paddle boarding. Snorkel and SUP rentals are a 5 minutes walk from the condo and the people at Snorkle Bobs are great with helping book your island adventures and with recommendations . The local grocery store has a wonderful poke bar so we enjoyed fresh poke almost nightly. The unit was cool, the bed comfy and the waves were so nice to listen to at night....if there was one thing I would suggest it would be a counter height set on the patio for better viewing but we sat outside each morning and night and loved the scene. Thank you guys for provinding such a clean and comfortable place!

Can't beat the location
I've been to this complex many times. You just cannot beat the location, right on the beach. 209 is my favorite room, because being on the corner, it allows a wide view of the area. The lanai is literally hanging right over the sand, and... more
the view is really unbeatable. The rooms, in general are a little dated, no pool, no AC. But the place is very clean, and again, right on the beach. The portable fans in some of the rooms, are beyond belief helpful, in sucking in that cool outside air. Located away from the big resorts, but just a 10 minute drive to Kaanapali, or 15 to Lahaina. Great little grocery store in the neighborhood. I have nothing to complain about, when renting from Chuck.

We had a wonderful stay in Condo 209. The Condo was well equipped with everything we needed. We ate breakfast in our room and everything we needed was there to enjoy our meals. The gift basket with bag was very much appreciated as I am... more
reminded of our stay every time I take my bag to the store. This room is a corner room and was overlooking the beach. The beach is just right out the widow. We could sit on the lanai and watch the sun set each evening or, sit on the beach in the provided chairs. It was wonderful. Body boards were provided and used every night - I can't tell you how much fun my old man had with those boards. The waves were loud and since we weren't use to that sort of noise it took us a night or two to get used to it. i know if I ever return, this is the place we will stay. Thank you so much for your hospitality and sharing a little bit of paradise.

Vacation Oct 7 - 19th
This was our 3rd trip to Maui and second time at Napili Bay Resort. We love this older beach front resort and will probably never stay any where else. The rooms are clean and well equipped with everything you might need. Everything for the beach:... more
cooler, chairs, boogie boards, even beach towels. We love walking out the door and through the gate onto this fun beach. We rarely left the resort as snorkeling is great and the turtles are always close. Also, if air condition is your thing, this is not the place for you. If you are looking to spend your vacation just steps from the beach, this is the place with the trade winds blowing and waves crashing. Also, we have met the friendliest people vacationing here, many who return annually. Chuck and Debi are very welcoming owner/hosts and will see to your every need. We will return next year.

We arrived to find not only supplies like TP, coffee filters, soap, paper towels and so on that we would need already there for us but also a gift bag with thoughtful treats in it--even coffee!

I reluctantly gave a four star score but air conditioning would have made it a five. The place was spotless, comfortable and located literally right over the beach. We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary toasting it while a stunning sunset shimmered on Napili Bay and... more
the waves lapped the shore a few feet from our second story balcony. We were made to feel right at home with the complimentary beach chairs, boogie boards, beach towels and abundant bath towels as well as the well appointed kitchen. There were no insects or visiting critters in the middle of the night... just the lulling sounds of the soft surf. The adjustable ceiling fan right over the bed felt like cool tropical breezes. Other than AC, I would hope for one improvement before our next visit... two tall bar stools and a matching table on the balcony to enhance the sight lines over the opaque bannister. Otherwise, it was definitely paradise.

perfect for me. It is clean and decorated nicely. I have stayed in this unit 2 times,and in another unit, I believe it was 215, once. Obviously, I love this place.

Just what we wanted!
My husband and I have been to Hawaii several times; each get closer to staying at our "perfect" location. This time, we knew that being right on the beach was our big priority. We also wanted to be able to snorkel and to be close... more
to--but not in the middle of--all the amenities of Ka'anapali. Napili Bay Condo 209 pretty much hit all our wants. We had a wonderful view from our lanai of Napili Bay, the turtles, whales, and people-watching. Tho it's a condo, everything we could have wanted was there, from beach chairs and towels to an extra drying rack. Nearby Napili Plaza was three minutes (by car) away and we went there daily for Maui Tacos, snorkel equipment, groceries (and great sandwiches for lunch), and Mama's BBQ. Getting to Lahaina and Ka'anapali is very easy, and heading north to the attractions was also a snap. I appreciated the easy check-in, the gift of a totebag and yummy mac candy, the responsiveness of the manager on the couple of times we had to call (couldn't find the TV remote! Oh, no!). For the two of us, this was the perfect place. Families may find it a bit small...but just rent two! :-)

209 is a golden spot!
Second time to Napili Bay Resort. Like last time, had a terrific stay. The location is fantastic - there's a swimming inlet in front of the condo and turtle snorkeling in the next inlet 2 minute walk away. The corner view is ideal. We would... more
prefer the taller chairs on the balcony to see over the rail instead of through the rail. When it mattered, we stood up. Chairs or not, we both feel like we would want 209 again.

Beautiful Views
This was our first time at this resort and we were very impressed with it. Was clean and stocked with everything we needed. Our dishwasher didn't work, but we called and someone was sent right away to check it out. The beach bag filled with... more
aloha goodies was very thoughtful and the bag perfect for our time at the beach. As this is a corner unit, we had great views and didn't hear anyone in the unit beside us. our only complaint is that the lanai doesn't have a rail, it is solid wood so you cant see through it down to the water and beach below. the lanai chairs don't sit you up high enough to see over. There were ice packs left in our freezer to take with you in the provided cooler that helped a lot on our day trips. Overall this is a very lovely room with everything provided to make your stay enjoyable.

Awesome view and so close to the water!
My husband and I just got back from a 6 night stay at Napili Bay condos to celebrate our 23rd wedding anniversary. This place was recommended to us by a couple of friends who have stayed here several times before. We loved unit 209 as... more
it was an upper corner ocean front room. It is very clean (never saw a bug) and comfortable. I liked the fact that it provided beach chairs, boogie boards and a cooler to borrow during our stay. I even donated a Costco beach umbrella when we left. The lanai has a couple of chairs and a table so we had many of our meals sitting out there looking at the sunset view. I know some of the other units have had big remodeling updates, but I don't need stainless and granite to be comfortable for a vacation that I am mostly spending outside on the beach. I am a neat freak, and one thing I recommend purchasing to bring with you is some windex or 409 type cleaner...It would have been helpful during the week for counter and sink touch-ups. There is not a pool at this property, but for me it was not a problem as I'm a snorkeler and was gone from the property in several snorkeling spots nearby all week long. We look forward to returning to this property...We think it is the best value in such a primo location of Maui!

We really enjoyed our stay in unit 209, our second stay at this complex. It couldn't be any closer to the beach, with an incredible view from the lanai. Close walk to good food at the Sea House restaurant at one end of the bay.... more
You can see the Sea turtles from the beach or even from the lanai. It is simple, one room place but big enough for two people comfortably. Great water pressure in the shower, no a/c but two ceiling fans to circulate the great Maui breezes. We would return to this unit.

Another great stay at Napili Bay
We have stayed at the Napili Bay resort 5 times, this was our first stay in unit 209. Our stay was booked through aloha Condos and the process is set up to make it very simple and worry free. The condo was exactly as described,... more
includes everything you need to have a very enjoyable stay. The unit was very clean, The ocean was just a few steps away and the lanai had an amazing view. The resort has laundry facilities and a barbeque area, parking is free. This is a great area to stay in if you enjoy walking, the beach is beautiful for early morning walks, the Beach house restaurant and bar is at the far end, has great food and an excellent happy hour (2-5) with the best pupus anywhere. For the more ambitious, the walk to the Honolua General store is a good workout , there is also a very nice snack bar in the back of the store, the food is very good. If you enjoy the ocean this is the place to be, swimming is fantastic, snorkelling and turtle watching also very good, and the sound of the waves will put you to sleep earlier than you expect after a busy day. The only negative we found were the lanai chairs, they were too low to take advantage of the view, and when it is hot the cushy padding became very warm and not comfortable. Beach chairs, boogie boards and a cooler are provided , we enjoyed our stay and would love to return soon.

Love Napili Bay
Best spot on Maui and "The Napili Bay" is perfect. We loved our room and the location. We always check for that corner room first.

Best location on the best beach in Maui!!!
We loved Unit 209 at Napili Bay Resort and would return there in a second. It is the southwest corner room on the 2nd floor, so an easy 180 degree panorama of the sea & sand, right on the beachfront. We rec'd excellent service from... more
Chuck, who always answered our emails promptly, Lisa the local agent who was there in 5 min. when our coffeepot went kaput, and Lee, the resident manager who helped me with change when I was in the laundry room. (They do have a bill changer but it didn't like my $s). The room was well stocked with enough towels for our 2 week stay, enough TP, & tissue. Also had 2 better than usual boogie boards (we have had other experiences), 2 beach chairs, small ice chest, laundry basket, drying rack which we used on the lanai every day, & more. Laundry room has used books and magazines and an ice machine right outside. We loved the closeness to the beach, 30 seconds, and that a key is required to come into the complex from the beach or to go out, so there aren't people wandering through. It is on the small side, but we weren't in our room much. It is not as updated as some of the rooms, but not as old as some of them, either. Huge mirror on the north wall reflects the sea and makes room look larger. Since we were entertaining two friends almost every night (!) who were staying nearby, we found it very cramped on the lanai, which is not deep. We did have trouble figuring out how to get the oven doing what it's supposed to do. And while everything was immaculate, the tub and surround must be the originals and could use a little facelift. However water pressure was awesome and hot as we wanted it! Minor suggestion. We loved the tree right in front of the complex which provided the best shade and had the nicest people under it! We call it the "Giving Tree" after the Shel Silverstein book! You can't go wrong with this unit 209!

Simply Paradise
This was our fourth visit to The Napili Bay Resort and the second stay in unit #209. The location can't be beat as you are directly on the beach with panoramic views of both Molokai and Lanai. Unit #209 is on the corner of the... more
second floor directly facing the bay so the lanai is open on two sides which gives you what I think is the best view of all the condos in the complex. Aloha Condos manages #209, as well as several other units in the complex and I can't say enough about how great they are to work with. Chuck and his group are very professional, communicate quickly and definitely have the "aloha spirit". Both condos that we stayed in were well kept, had very comfortable beds and all the amenities that we could wish for ( free WiFi, dishwasher, cable tv, beach chairs, boogie boards, etc). The only item that is missing from # 209 is a fridge with ice and water in the door so it is more convenient to make that mai tai! On our first stay in this unit we were amazed at how loud the ocean was, so if you are a light sleeper perhaps you should bring ear plugs for the first few nights until you adjust to the crashing surf. After a short adjustment we now love the continually changing character of the ocean as well as the constant breeze that keeps the condo comfortable. I think that the Napili Bay Resort has the best location and is the best value in West Maui. Napili Bay itself is picture perfect, with a great sandy beach and a low key " Old Hawaii Feel". Thanks again to Chuck and his group for another memorable stay.

Wonderful stay at Napili Bay
We had a wonderful stay at Napili Bay Resort #209. This was our second stay at Napili Bay, and 209 is just a perfect unit in a great little affordable resort. The condo itself is well equipped with just about everything you would need for... more
a comfortable week on the beach. (We only had one issue, as we think the oven isn't working properly, should be looked at or repaired.) This resort has no pool or hot tub, which doesn't bother us as we spend our time on the beach or in the ocean, but if you are looking for a full service resort, this isn't it. We had unbelievable views from a private lanai in this corner unit, and the proximity to the ocean on this beautiful, low key bay is fantastic. I have never stayed anywhere in Hawaii where I was so close to the water. The sound of the surf in the units facing the ocean is amazing. The water in Napili bay is perfect for swimming and snorkeling, as is the water in the very close Kapulua bay. There are great walking trails in Kapalua, and the General Store at Kapalua is a nice inexpensive place to have breakfast or a cup of coffe after an early morning walk in Kapalua. The Sea House Restaurant on Napili is also a good breakfast, lunch or sunset dinner spot with reasonable prices for Hawaii. We watched dozens of whales all week from our lanai. The grocery market in Napili is just minutes away, and a much better alternative for buying food and supplies than the very busy Safeway in very busy Lahaina. There is quite a bit of traffic on this side of the island, especially from Lahaina to Kapalua, but was not a big problem if you avoid driving at rush hour. We would recommend Napili Bay wholeheartedly!

Fabulous, restful, idyllic, happy vacation at Napili Bay
We've been returning to the Napili Bay Resort for 37 years - since 1974! And of all the units we've experienced over time, we like 209 the best. It is on the corner of the building, thus the lanai has an oceanfront view to the... more

The amenities of the unit are superb and tasteful - though we hope the owner will upgrade the shower/bath someday. And perhaps a high definition TV with a DVR might be a nice touch... (though we don't go to Maui to watch television). We love it here, and we shall return.

They provided a very nice gift basket to welcome us with a pineapple, tote bag, chocolate macadamia nuts, fresh fruit, etc. The full kitchen is nicely equipped for pretty much any kind of dinner you want to make.

The only thing one should be aware of about this resort before booking is that they do not have a swimming pool, however the beach there is great.

This little gem was everything we were looking for in a stay by the sea in Maui. The ocean was ten feet out the door The sunsets were beautiful. The view from the 2nd floor. balcony were fantastic! We could see the whales spouting and... more
breeching from the balcony! The Hawaiian theme of the condo was charming. We had everything we needed including beach chairs and boogy boards. The unit was just right for two of us, some may say small but it was a studio and we spent most of the time on the porch. The kitchen was well equip for cooking but not there was no place to eat (table to sit at), we ate evening meals out, so only cooked once but did do breakfast and lunch on the porch. We loved the proximity to the ocean, the second floor for a great view of the bay and the less populated area of Napili Bay. I would go back in a heatbeat if I were to return to Maui!

Perfect vacation!
My hubby and I are still glowing after a wonderful, relaxing (too short) vacation at Napili Bay Resort. We stayed in #209 and were very content with this corner unit. It was clean and well equipped, and tastefully decorated. We thoroughly enjoyed the spectacular view... more
from the balcony...we even saw a few whales breaching off in the channel! It did get quite hot on the balcony from 2-4pm, but the beach is steps away, the ocean is lovely and we could always find a spot of shade under the big tree to sit and read and relax. The snorkeling on the reef in the bay is decent, and we saw green sea turtles swimming right in the bay. A really excellent snorkeling site is aprox. 10 kms up the road in Honolua Bay, and I would highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys snorkeling...we saw incredible corals, turtles, a Moray Eel, and countless beautiful tropical fish...most excellent! Fruits and veggies are pretty expensive on Maui, but there's a little farmers market/grocery store on the left side of the road heading towards Kanapali that had the best prices. Also we found some good fresh reasonably priced fish and meats in the Napili Marketplace store on Napilihau Street, which is a 2 min. drive away from the condo. They also have a good selection of wine, etc. The entrance to this store is a little hard to spot as it's located inside a small strip mall of sorts, and you probably won't see the entrance door unless you get out of your car and check out the store fronts...it's a little to the right of the middle. Anyways, we managed to put 500 miles on our rental car in a week...drove up to the volcano, and took the road to Hana...went to the souvenir market in Kihei, and just generally had a great time! Hope to be back here one day soon, and would highly reommend Napili Bay Resort...the location is fabulous.

We are cyclists and rode a round trip heading north from the condo all the way around to near the airport and clockwise to Lahaina. A beautiful ride with good climbs early on.

About the condo itself: I stayed in a second floor unit facing the beach and at night the waves crashed hard on the rocks there on the edge of the bay and this resort appears to take the brunt of the decibels.

out onto the small balcony and enjoy the beautiful view. Chuck, the owner, was great to work with and was very helpful in answering some questions we had as first-time visitors to Hawaii. I would recommend this unit to anyone. The only thing to keep in mind, if anyone in your party is a light sleeper, is that you can't turn off the sound of the waves crashing on the beach. This condo is ON THE BEACH - and it can be loud (and, since it's a public beach, so can the people). Since the windows don't exactly "close," the sound can only be muffled - not completely shut out. It didn't bother me so much, but it did take my husband a couple of nights to get used to it. In NO way do I want to deter anyone from staying here, but if you like to sleep in silence, be prepared - you may want to invest in some earplugs! FYI - my husband was also very concerned that this unit does not have air conditioning, but it was truly not an issue at all. It's very breezy, and hopefully you'll be spending most of your time enjoying the beautiful Hawaii outdoors anyway!

We did see whales, turtles and superb sunsets. If you are looking for a restful, quiet vacation at one of the best beaches, this is the place to be.

Great Getaway
We had a great time at the Alohacondos. It was very easy getting to the complex and Chuck made it a very easy check-in. There was NO hassle with anything. The beachfront condo has a great view of the sunset and has easy access to... more
restaurants, snorkeling, and just lazing on the beach. We didn't feel the need to get up and go anywhere else. The sea breeze flows through the condo and keeps things cooled off at that time of year. The wireless internet access was a real bonus.

Sand and sea turtles in the back yard
We love Napili Bay. We found the area through a travel agent and stayed at a local hotel. I recommended the location to a co-worker who found the Napili Bay condo units. We tried them next and are now true repeat fans. We know it,... more
the sea turtles, the sunsets, the view of Molokai, the local coral reefs and even some residents so we feel like it's our little second home when we get to visit. It's not fancy hotel living. It's comfortable, relaxing and friendly for those who are looking to feel more at home and happy to hang out in a studio apartment than be waited on. The bay is beautiful and not too big. Therefore, you never feel crowded in. Condo 209 is perfect for us and the owner is wonderful. He makes certain everything is up to snuff and that you are welcome and appreciated. The grounds manager is always there to help too. The room is tropically decorated and puts you in the island mood quickly. The bed and amenities are very comfortable. There is a television and DVD/VCR if you're so inclined. There are boogie boards and beach chairs to use. We get our food when we arrive, cook in the evenings and have no pressure to leave the bay unless we want to. Breakfast on the lania watching the clouds drift by Molokai and the sea turtles feed on the coral just yards away is fantastic. The condo is on the west corner and you will be treated with incredible sunsets every night. The only thing to note is that the rooms do not have air conditioning - ceiling fans though - so it can get warm inside but who cares when you need only a swimsuit to enjoy Napili Bay. Give it a try if you want to wind down from a hustle bustle life and tune in to a relaxing and rejuvenating place.

Great Place for Family or Newlyweds
My wife and I visited Maui (Napili Beach Area) in 2005,and wanted to come back, at least once more. The area is great for Family's, newlyweds and even singles. Our accomadations in 2009 provided the best view, and BBQ area for preparing evening dinners that... more
made our stay both economical, romantic and special. The grounds, which are natively landscaped only enhanced the "Hawaii Experience" and we would love to come back again. Best, Bill Monroe

Napili Bay Great Condo!
This was a great condo that I would highly recommend. The view was wonderful and it had more windows than most because it was a corner unit. It is a short walk to the beach which had some of the best snorkeling anywhere (if you... more
like BIG turtles that is!). We snorkeled every day and saw anywhere from 5-30 turtles each time. It was amazing. The condo itself was very clean and nicely appointed. We found the price to be exceptional when compared to other condos and the views of this one can't be beat! Again, I would highly recommend this particular unit and would stay there again.

Fabulous Find in Paradise
We stayed at Unit 209 at Aloha Condos for a glorious week - did not want to leave!! Our rental car remained unused, as the beach was perfect - right down the stairs from our condo, restaurants nearby and a lovely little market and fish... more
market we could purchase provisions. We ate almost all our meals out on the lanai, overlooking the beach and beautiful Napili Bay. The sunsets are gorgeous and the king bed was so comfortable. It was our 30th wedding anniversary and tanned, rested and recharged, we reluctantly made our way home, hoping to come back SOON to Unit 209.
