Hale Kai O'Kihei
1310 Uluniu Rd, Kihei, HI 96753
Hale Kai O'Kihei sits right on the sand in North Kihei, a low-rise, 1969-built complex of 59 units spread across two three-story buildings with direct oceanfront beach access. Most homes are one-bedroom, one-bath layouts around 620 square feet, with a smaller run of larger two-bedroom, two-bath units near 912 square feet for buyers who want more room to spread out.
The grounds keep things simple: a pool, a BBQ area, a putting green, and shared recreation space, all a short walk from the water. It is an older building by Kihei standards, which tends to show up in price rather than in the setting, and the setting here is hard to beat for anyone chasing an oceanfront foothold on a starter budget.
