Kailani Suite at Hana Kai Resort

Top floor ocean view was my dream. Ocean breeze and stocked unit 4 kitchen. Tons of cooking gear. No dishwasher. Sunrise over the black sand beach is like the movies. Highly recommend staying a night in Hana after the road to Hana and then hiking 4 mile Pipiwea trail in the morning when it’s quiet. Hana has lots of food as long as you buy it by 5 pm. Restaurants and grocery store and excellent food trucks for breakfast until 4 pm. Breeze kept us cool. Tides were like white noise. Amazing. Helpful staff, beach towels at front desk. 70s glamour vibe.

We loved our room and ocean view lanai at Hana Kai Resort. Comfy accommodations. No air-conditioning but the breeze off the bay and the ceiling fans did an amazing job at keeping the rooms cool and comfortable. Our favorite part was sitting on the lanai every evening after a busy day of sightseeing and hiking. We ordered takeout dinner each afternoon to eat on the table on the lanai facing the bay. We were in room 204, which overlooked the lower resort building but had a pretty clear, direct view of the water and beach. Staff was friendly and responsive. We had a broken end table on the lanai and our check-in host came to the room, picked it up and returned it within 20 minutes, repaired! Easy walk or drive into the town to stop at the two small stores or food trucks. Staying in Hana allowed us to fit in all the attractions in the area without rushing.

Wow..the views are amazing. I was in the lower building with unobstructed views of the. Water and a corner lanai that did not face any other bldg.. I had the windows open all night , listening to surf crash on the beach. I would go back in heartbeat. Room was incredible, staff was incredible..if I could give them 10 stars I would. Town does close early so either plan on cooking your own meal or but there was one restaurant open.. I did not go. Picked up groceries at the local store to cook breakfast..be prepared it’s pricey($10 for 5 English muffins, $10 for 12 eggs, etc. )

We rented the Oceanfront Studio Unit 2. It had a balcony with a full view of the ocean and great sunrises. It had a full kitchen and because we had been forewarned by the hotel we stopped at Whole Foods and purchased eggs, butter, and bread so we could make breakfast each morning. We did not want to pay $60 for breakfast for two people. The room came well stocked with salt and pepper, coffee and filters, as well as everything in the way of cooking utensils and pots and pans. We have a collapsible Mountainsmith portable cooler that we froze a couple of bottles of water from our hotel in Lahaina and were able to keep everything cold on the 2.5 hour drive to Hana. There is only one choice for breakfast in Hana and you will pay dearly for it. We loved our stay here. Be sure to heed the advice of the inn keeper on purchasing groceries as well as reservations at the state park.

My husband and I just spent two nights at Hana Kai Maui. Because of a last minute decision by us, we had to switch the room the second day. No big deal! We initially stayed in Room 5 which is one of the finest facilities we have ever been in. Large two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The view of the black sand beach (easy walk to beach also) and surf out the massive windows is outstanding. The balcony out of the master bedroom with the king bed was unbelievable; we slept with the doors open with only the screen door shut. The sounds of the surf and waves was amazing. The den is spacious and very relaxing; full kitchen excellent. The next night we stayed in room which has the same basic view as Room 5, although the room 3 is smaller. It was also an excellent place to stay. Staff was very helpful and courteous. Friendly check in/out. This is a great base for exploring Hana and a great place to stay on any trip on the road to Hana.

Great location on a black sand beach, with view and easy walk to ocean. Overprice, but every lodging around Hana is overpriced, even for Hawaii. Large studio-style. Very quiet and peaceful place. We enjoyed our stay at the unit Beside the price, the only negative is that there is no AC, but breeze kept it comfortable.
