Five star for family’s, Gary’s ground floor condo at Papakea Resort was perfect for our family vacation. We arrived in Maui at 9:20am , I placed a phone call to Gary to inquire if it would be possible for us to check in early as , the check in was not until 3pm. He answered my call immediately, called the resort and got back to me right away with the approval to check in early, he was very friendly and happy to help. The resort was beautiful with manicured grounds , The condo was better than the photos had shown had very nice floor plan , decorated with Hawaiian style furniture, immaculately clean. The living area had a amazing wall to wall slider and window with a screen for a amazing view of the garden, pond and the island of Luani. For our family of four we had plenty of room beacause of the pull down Murphy Bed , the kids could relax on the bed and watch tv leaving the couch and chair for my husband and I , and when folded up left a lot more living space than other similar condos. This condo had plenty of storage with a full closet in the bedroom, and hall closet. I was happy to see they had thought of everything in the kitchen, toaster blender very nice pots and pans , plenty of dishes coffee maker etc. Our host even Supplied dishwasher detergent for everyday garbage bags for every day , a bag of ice in the freezer very thoughtfully and unexpected. The beds were comfortable and had very high quality sheets on them. Each closet had mirrored doors which was very nice for girls needind to get ready. Our host included in the room plenty of high quality fluffy towels a blow dryer in the bathroom , even Maui special soap we felt very spoiled. For our two kids 6 and 8 years old being on the ground floor with the pond next to our Lani was such a blessing for them they had so much fun catching lizards 🦎 during the day and frogs 🐸 at night, not to mention the relaxing sound of the water entering our room. The Resort offered a surprising amount of free classes yoga, swimerzise , the kids loved the putting greens available for free , and Shuffle ball. The pools were great and even offered poolside WiFi. In my opinion this condo is in the best location on the Island 🌴 you are right next to the best snorkeling in the world, we snorkeled with sea turtles and amazing fish saw beautiful coral reefs at Blackrock beach, Napili Beach Honolulu Bay, D.T Fleming and Kanapali beach. Gary provided all the amenities for a perfect day at the beach , super comfortable Tommy Bahama Backpack beach chairs a Umbrella for shade , beach towels a soft cooler for lunch and drinks, even sand Mats. We had such a amazing Vacation , Gary was...
