Napili Kai Beach Resort
5900 Lower Honoapiilani Rd, Lahaina, HI 96761
Napili Kai Beach Resort has operated as a low-rise beach resort since the 1960s, with roughly 76 condo-style units across four buildings set among plumeria trees and lava-rock paths on Napili Bay. Unlike most complexes in this guide, it runs day to day much more like a hotel than a condo association, with a restaurant, four pools, daily activities, and a small number of true hotel rooms alongside the condo units.
Given that resort-style operating model, Napili Kai does not appear on either of Maui County's officially published short-term rental lists, so verify current ownership structure and rental rules with Diane before you buy.
