This 24-acre condominium resort consists of five residential buildings on the grounds of the old Kapalua Bay Hotel. It’s a mix of private condos and vacation rentals with high-end resort amenities and very professional staff. The grounds are tropical and pleasing. The buildings have a contemporary Hawaiian feel and sit well on the acreage, giving most rooms some view of the ocean from these low-to-mid-rise buildings.

Though not on a beach (it’s a rocky shoreline with great snorkeling), sandy Kapalua Beach is a short walk near the south end of the property by their members-only Beach Club.

The overall feeling of the resort is very Hawaiian and calming with rich wood tones and warm color schemes. The hotel is expensively furnished with lots of artwork spread about the grounds (which you can self tour by scanning QR codes). The buildings and the hotel itself are handsome. The staff is eager to please and will get you anything you need. They show a lot of aloha to each and every guest—including children.

They have an on-site program called “Jean-Michel Cousteau Ambassador of the Environment” (closed October through mid-December) for guests 5 years old and up during which keiki and adults learn about sea creatures, take underwater pictures, go on hikes, etc.

This condo property is divided into three separate areas: Golf, Ridge and Bay. The units are priced based on view and room quality—not area. The Bay has the best ocean views; the Ridge can have some decent ocean views or partial ocean views. Fairway view or partial ocean view units can be found in both the Ridge and the Golf villas. Many of the units have been upgraded to luxury (they call them “gold”) standards, including new bathrooms, kitchens with granite counters, high-end appliances and new furnishings.

Golf villas have 186 units, 4 pools, and are older (built in 1977) and smaller than Ridge villas, which have 161 units and 2 pools. Bay villas have 141 units that hug the shoreline (at least some units do), as well as 3 pools and 2 tennis courts. Floor plans are variable, but roomy.
