We've been lucky enough to have stayed at Napili Suf twice in the past year and do not think we would stay at another place in Maui if we could avoid it.

We had a garden view studio on the 1st floor, same one as we had last year. It was very clean and had everything for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was well equipped and the bathroom was spacious and clean. It had a balcony which although did not have a seaview, had a view of the gardens and swimming pool and it had alot of privacy. Since last year, the carpet has been replaced. The gardens are well maintained and someone is always doing some maintenance to keep them itidy. There are barbecues around the property for the guests use and a coffee morning on a Wednesday and a Mai Tai evening another night.

There are laundry facilities so you can pack light(er), there is free parking too and none of the cleaning fee nonsense that other properties seem to have (the ones that charge it but fail to clean it for your arrival).

Napili Surf are very flexible with us, since we are not from the US and they do not take credit cards, so arranging prepayments/deposits in USD can be costly, also with the arrival time being after the office closes, they make arrangements for the key.

On top of that, the location of Napili Surf is fantastic, with a beautiful beach where turtles like to swim in the evenings and you can see whales in season from the beach. The water is lovely and you can snorkel. Some days it is rough and others it is like a lake. Next door is another condo unit (Napili Point?) where you can take breakfast if you don't mind standing in line and they have happy hour plus full service restaurant. Napili market is nearby for supplies although Safeway in Lahaina was our best supermarket. Lahaina is not far away for dining options and evenings out, so too is Kapalua for Sansei's.

We were looking for a nice place to stay for a base and found Napili Surf via Trip Advisors. It is a complex with many accommodations. We were in the 1 bedroom units not on the beach but with a pool. The units for $139.00 per night were a bargain for what we got. Harry at the front desk was most pleasant and helpful. Actually everyone seemed helpful. The units were very clean, efficient and well appointed. In the full kitchen frig they provided a fresh pineapple and all the necessities to make tea or coffee. Nearby is a wonderful restaurant right on the beach. We even saw whales during our breakfast. All in all I highly recommend these units for the either a base station or a longer R&R stay.

The Napili Surf is a great, affordable place to stay in Maui. The unit we stayed in - rear-most building (not ocean front) 2nd floor -- was VERY clean, well kept, and met my expectations. Keep in mind, these are privately owned units, and from what I could see passing by other rooms, the conditions can vary. For example, ours had a nicely expanded and updated bathroom but others did not. Party-going types will not like this place. It's very quiet. No air conditioning, but there was sufficient breeze to keep us comfortable (though the noise from the pool area can be intrusive at night with the windows open- had to get up and close them). It's a great 'home base' for exploring Maui-- i.e. not a "destination resort" that you'll never leave, but a nice place to come home to and from which to plan your adventures.

We just returned from one of the best resort experiences we have ever had, and we hesitate to share this review because we don't want Napili Surf to become so popular we cannot return. The deluxe accommodations in our one-bedroom condo with daily maid service, included full kitchen with dishwasher, newly remodeled bathroom with thick, fluffy towels delivered daily, and wonderful staff ready to assist with any request. The louvered window above the shower let the trade breezes float through as we showered after coming in 20 yards from the beach....the accommodations could not have been better. All hours of the day and night there was a breath-taking ocean view from the lanai or the bedroom windows, framed by palm trees. The living room with large, flat screen tv. also wired for Sirius FM radio. The large bedroom with king bed and excellent mattress as well as a pull-out couch and twin bed/day bed in the living room made this apartment just about perfect for a couple or a family. The apartment is not air conditioned, but ceiling fans and cool breezes did the trick. There is a 9 p.m. quiet rule since all the apartments have open windows. There is a high proportion of returning guests and owners who come for the beauty and serenity, many of whom have been coming for over 40 years, so we had no problem with noise. The grounds are beautifully maintained and the pool was placed just between our apartment and the golden crescent beach that is Napili. The sun sets over the open ocean each evening in colors so gorgeous they defy description. Best of all, the humpback whales make their way up the channel between Maui and Molokai and provide entertainment morning and night. Binoculars were not necessary to see the constant parade of spouts, tales, and completely breaching and spinning whales.....all viewed from our lanai! Napili Beach is a jewel and we hope they never succumb to the development craze in the rest of western Maui, including at the adjoining Kapalua Bay property, where the cranes and tall development with loud construction noise (our only complaint during this stay) are taking away from the peace and beauty in this magnificent part of the island. Get to Napili Surf as soon as you can....it is too beautiful to be missed!
