Serene Garden Condo Steps from Sugar Beach

No Resort or Parking Fees!
Hono Kai C12 is a bright 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom condo on the 3rd floor of a beachfront resort on Ma'alaea Bay, with tropical views and traditional Hawaiian decor throughout. It sleeps up to 4 guests. Please note that there are no lifts at this property.

The bedroom has a queen-size bed, new as of August 2025, and is separated from the living area by Hawaiian-style plantation shutters. For extra guests, the living area has a queen-size sofa sleeper and a flat-screen TV with cable. The bathroom, next to the front door, has a tub/shower combo.

The well-stocked kitchen makes it easy to cook in, and you can dine inside or out on your private lanai. A timed wall A/C unit between the bedroom and living area keeps the condo cool. The condo gets a quarterly pest control spray, and the entire complex was tented in early November 2025.

Step outside to a 6-mile stretch of beach with views of Haleakala and Kaho'olawe. Hono Kai also has an oceanfront pool, BBQ areas, and a coin-operated laundry. From Ma'alaea, you can walk to the Aquarium, enjoy activities from the nearby harbour, play miniature golf at Maui Golf & Sports Park, or shop at the Maui Harbour Shops. Ma'alaea sits in central Maui, so both sides of the island are within easy reach.

Great place very close to the beach!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The condo was clean and comfortable. The location was incredibly convenient for the beach, lots of restaurants and coffee shops, and a scuba dive excursion.

This is a great place to have a budget stay in Maui. I loved the balcony view. Its not a direct beach view, but still gives a peak into ocean with a balcony covered by trees that gives privacy. I also loved the perks shared by the property management. We used it for a free ticket to luau show which was amazing. Property management is very well planned and gave us timely updates.

Maui Time

Condo was everything we could ask for, clean and ready for use when we arrived, nice and quiet and a beautiful area to just relax and soak up as much sun as you would want, already planning our next stay here, as well as My Perfect Stays were right on top of anything that needed to be done.

Nice place

Nice place, very well located, very central, close to the beach. The only cons was that the manager or administrator of the building was really rude the first time we arrived at the apartment, he told my husband that our children were not welcome, maybe he was in a bad mood, i dont know, but that was kind of bummer. although later the owner of the vrb apologized to us and had constant communication with us, it was nice to know that our problems were being addressed

Not So Perfect Stays

After seeing the pictures of this condo, I was excited for my stay. Didn't feel the same way once I got there and saw the room in person. The condo definitely needs to be updated. We made sure to stay out all day; only coming back to the room to sleep. I feel that we overpaid for this room. A woman with a key also barged into our room on checkout day, hours before we even had to be out, making us feel extremely uncomfortable and causing us to rush out in fear that she would come back.

Not as expected

The property is in an old complex that has not been updated. It is really a studio not a one bedroom as advertised. It is rather noisy due to it being directly in the landing flight path of the airport and waves crashing on the breakwater barrier. The only positive note was the proximity to the long and beautiful beach.

Exactly as described

The location was right on the beach, the facility was dated but clean, and it was perfect for a family with kids. The only thing that we struggled with was the kitchen items the blender leaked and the toaster did work but you had to manually hole it down and it only toasted one side of the bread. I called management and the blender was handled promptly but for some reason the toaster was not taken csre of. Also the pans were extrenely scratched and very difficult to cook on. Other than those minor inconveniences it was a perfect stay!

Cleanliness

Cleanliness was just gross. There was grimy and greasy dust everywhere. It’s old with a lack of up keep. The curtains were falling apart. The main queen bed is old and WORE OUT and broken, the middle had a major sag. The pull out couch also sucked. There was a main light and fan that did not work. They did not provide the basics only 2 rolls of toilet paper, extra extra small dish soap and we stayed for 10days. We were not notified that the water was going to be turned off for over 8 hrs during the heat of the day. However the location is amazing And sugar beach is absolutely beautiful! It was so quiet and full of locals. We will definitely stay near here again just not this condominium.

Disappointed

Carpet very stained and worn. Draperies were dirty and not hung properly on the hooks. A/C unit remote controller did not control temperature. The unit was plugged into an extension cord as was the ceiling fan and light. This is not acceptable according to electrical codes. The bed did not have a headboard, gives a very cheap impression! The stove was unbalanced and could cause a burn issue. TV and cable instructions were complicated and not correct. We did eventually figure it out. The A/C unit was also very dirty inside and out, it needs to have its filters cleaned. Finally, a $350 cleaning fee is absolutely absurd! I don't feel that the owners get their monies worth under your management!

Close to perfect

The pictures showed a beautiful view of the ocean and pool and tropical vegetation from the lanai which was true! Unfortunately we could not get to the beach from the property (due to erosion). The pictures inside the condo showed a clean white carpet (the carpeting was our least favorite feature of the property) and an average bathroom. When we walked in upon arrival the carpet looked dirty and was definitely stained. The bathroom was very small and definitely outdated. We noticed the toilet would “run” after 2-3 flushes which I determined was due to the flapper falling off. I contacted the agency on Saturday, talked to someone about the problem then never heard back from them. We left on Thursday and they called after we rated them on a survey. They said they were there and had to order a part on amazon (Home Depot and Lowe’s ?). Other then that the condo was fine! Everything we needed was there and the location was central to the island.
