Hono Koa Vacation Club

We had three adults and two teens, and there was plenty of room for everyone. The condos were clean and well maintained, the parking was always available and included, and every staff member was kind and greeted us. Donna gave us a warm welcome, shared island stories and local recommendations, and sent us off with goodbye hugs and pictures. Our late-night arrival was easy to manage, and the condo had everything we needed, even a new rice cooker when we asked. We cooked many meals there, and it came with coffee, dish soap, laundry detergent, and an ice maker. Wi-Fi was easy to connect to for Netflix. The pool and hot tub area was well maintained and cleaned every morning. Near the pool we found a bin with leftover beach and pool toys, plus beach chairs, and used some before returning them for other guests. I loved having coffee and reading in the grassy area each morning. It was quiet and peaceful, and a local coffee shop and beach were walkable. A car is useful for exploring other areas. I’d definitely come back!

We booked through Interval International. For Maui, we chose a less expensive resort so we could spend more on excursions, meals, and souvenirs. It turned out to be a great choice, with charming wooden furnishings, a private balcony, and a good-sized, handicapped-accessible pool. The views from the window were stunning in the morning and evening. The resort is about 40 minutes from OGG and even closer to the island’s smaller airport. We were close to South Maui, many beaches, restaurants, nightlife, and excursions departing from Lāhainā. Having a full kitchen saved us money on breakfast and lunch, so we could go all out at dinner. There were plenty of regular and beach towels for the week, free WiFi, and quiet hours from 10:00pm-8:00am. The lack of central a/c wasn’t a problem in the main living area or king size room, with plenty of doors and windows, but the twin size bedroom window barely opened and the fan didn’t cool it enough. We requested a suite for six: one room had a king size bed, the second had two twin beds that squeaked and had springs we could feel, and there was a pull out couch presumably for the other two guests. The pool furniture could use an upgrade if you plan to stay in at night or skip the beach.

We picked this over a big resort so we could spend more time on excursions and exploring beaches. The location was great and easy to reach, with good food and activity options nearby. The rooms were a great size. I’d highly recommend it.

Our two-bedroom rental worked perfectly for the family, and the ocean view was breathtaking. The place was clean and spacious, with a perfect location near beautiful beaches and the food truck park. Donna welcomed us with fantastic service and helpful suggestions for supporting local businesses. All the staff were kind and helpful. Thank you so much!
