Hana Kai-Maui

Uakea Rd, Hana, HI 96713

Hana Kai-Maui sits right on the water on Uakea Road, an oceanfront condo building in the small, remote town at the end of the Road to Hana. Built in 1974 across two low-rise buildings, its 20 homes run from cozy studios (347 to 413 square feet) up to one- and two-bedroom units (up to 891 square feet), simple, unpretentious homes with a rare oceanfront setting in one of Maui's most secluded corners.

Unlike the operating hotel-condo property nearby, Hana Kai-Maui is a standalone building, and both short-term and long-term rental are allowed here, giving owners real flexibility. It's also FHA and VA loan approved, a meaningful detail for buyers using government-backed financing, since many Maui condos aren't. Amenities are simple: a pool, a BBQ area, and beach access, matched to Hana's quiet, end-of-the-road pace rather than a resort crowd.
