KBM Resorts: Honua Kai Hokulani HKH-714 Ocean Views Beach Front Resort Includes Rental Car Overview
Okay, so first thing about Honua Kai Hokulani – you’re going to pull up and think “wait, this is actually happening?” because honestly, the oceanfront location here is just ridiculous in the best way possible. I mean, you’re literally steps from Ka’anapali Beach, and not the crowded touristy part either. This is the north end where locals actually hang out, and you can watch the Maui sunset without fighting for elbow room with a hundred other people holding up their phones.
The HKH-714 unit specifically has these floor-to-ceiling windows that face straight out to the ocean – and when I say ocean views, I’m talking about waking up to whitecaps and maybe spotting some humpbacks if you’re there during whale season (December through April, if you’re wondering). The whole place feels more like a luxury condo than a typical resort room, which makes sense because that’s basically what it is. You’ve got a full kitchen that’s actually useful – not one of those sad hotel kitchenettes with a broken coffee maker. The rental car inclusion is honestly clutch because you’ll want to hit up places like Mama’s Fish House or drive the Road to Hana without dealing with rental car desk drama.
What really gets me about this place though is how it manages to feel both upscale and relaxed at the same time. The pools here are gorgeous – there’s this adults-only infinity pool that overlooks the beach where you can actually hear yourself think, plus a family pool that’s not too chaotic. The grounds are immaculate without feeling stuffy, you know? And the staff genuinely seems to enjoy working there, which you notice in little things like remembering your name or giving you actual local recommendations instead of just pointing you toward the tourist traps. Check-in was smooth as butter when I was there, though I’d imagine things get a bit more hectic during peak season – so maybe plan accordingly if you’re visiting around holidays. The only minor thing I’d mention is that the trade winds can make the balcony a little gusty some evenings, but honestly, that’s just Maui being Maui. You’re getting a perfect 10-rated experience at a 4-star price point, which in West Maui is basically like finding a unicorn. If you’re trying to decide between this and some of the bigger name resorts down the beach, just book this one – you’ll thank me later.
