Maui Oceanfront Condos

by Patricia Tunstall

Molokai Maui Oceanfront Condos

Molokai is one of the four islands that constitute Maui County. For such a small area--38 miles long and 10 miles wide--this island has many unique features. It has the longest white-sand beach in Hawaii at Papohaku Beach. It has the world's highest sea cliffs at 2,600 feet on the North Shore. It has Hawaii's only barrier reef that protects the east and south sides of the island.

These are only the most obvious highlights. Molokai has only one main road, no traffic lights, a top speed limit of 45, and no building taller than a palm tree! On the west end, the Kaluakoi Resort at Kepuhi Beach offers several complexes of condos and villas on the shore, as well as, a golf course set among the palms. On the southern part of the east end are the Wavecrest Resort and Molokai Shores, both of which have Maui oceanfront condos. Contact the Molokai Chamber of Commerce, the Molokai Visitors Association, or Maui real estate agents for more information about Molokai real estate.

Beach Communities with Condos

On the island of Maui itself, several beach communities have more of a mix of people from all walks of life than do the resorts at Kapalua, Kaanapali, Wailea, and Makena. These communities house the locals who live and work on West and South Maui. The lodging and accommodations are also an eclectic mix of older homes and newer condo developments.

The Napili/Kahana/Honokowai area is a more affordable stretch offering Maui oceanfront condos between the very expensive and exclusive properties at Kapalua and Kaanapali. Lahaina, south of Kaanapali, was once the capital of Hawaii and a whaling center. It still is lively, and has a typical beach town's colorful nightlife. Kihei, on South Maui, is also a bustling, eclectic town that has more affordable lodging, as well as, Maui oceanfront condos.
