Napili Shores

5315 Lower Honoapiilani Rd D128

Lahaina, HI 96761

Napili Shores is one of West Maui’s most iconic low-rise oceanfront resorts—celebrated for its timeless Hawaiian character, 6.3 acres of lush tropical grounds, and direct, walkable access to the world-famous sandy beach of Napili Bay just moments away. Elevated above the shoreline and anchored on rock-solid lava, the resort enjoys a stable, high-elevation setting that is inherently protected from seawall concerns and coastal erosion issues—an increasingly important advantage in today’s coastal ownership and regulatory landscape. This is exactly what Maui buyers dream about: no high-rises, no congestion—just white sandy beaches, swaying palms, plumeria-infused ocean air, and unforgettable sunset skies. Unit D128 is a remodeled ground-floor studio, thoughtfully upgraded in 2020 and ideally positioned for privacy, convenience, and seamless indoor-outdoor living. Improvements include granite countertops in both the kitchen and bathroom, in 2025 a beautifully renovated walk-in shower at a cost of $25,000 was installed, and the addition of a split A/C system—bringing modern comfort to a classic island setting. Unlike many units at Napili Shores, this residence has zero steps to access and parking is very close to the front door, all special assessments have been paid in full and it also has been owner-occupied and lightly used as a second home, not pounded week-in and week-out as a vacation rental. The result is a noticeably well-kept interior with minimal wear and tear, offering a calmer, more residential feel that’s immediately apparent. The studio opens to a serene garden setting, creating a peaceful retreat while remaining just a short stroll to the shoreline, pools, and resort amenities. Inside, the layout is efficient and inviting—designed to feel open, comfortable, and functional. Ground-floor access means no stairs, easy unloading, and effortless movement between the unit, parking, pools, and beach access—ideal for full-time living, second-home use, or future rental flexibility. Napili Shores spans over 6.3 acres of meticulously maintained tropical gardens, forming a tranquil, walkable environment that feels more like a private coastal village than a resort. Amenities include two swimming pools (one oceanfront, one garden-side), two spas, BBQ and gathering areas, shuffleboard, and two beloved on-site restaurants, including the legendary Gazebo—famous for its breakfast and oceanfront dining. Beach gear rentals and ocean activities are conveniently available onsite. With direct access to Napili Bay’s sandy shoreline, owners and guests enjoy calm swimming, world-class snorkeling with sea turtles, paddleboarding, and unforgettable whale watching during the winter months. Beyond the bay, you’re minutes from Kapalua Bay, Honokeana Cove, championship golf courses, tennis and pickleball clubs, coastal trails, and the dining and shopping destinations of Kapalua and Kaanapali. Importantly, Napili Shores is hotel-zoned (NBCID / Business Resort) and NOT apartment-zoned—making it Bill 9–proof and providing long-term security and flexibility in an increasingly regulated Maui market. This zoning allows for legal short-term rental use while preserving the resort’s legacy value and desirability. D128 stands out as one of the best-priced units in the complex and has been cared for as a home first—not cycled through constant guest turnover—offering a quieter, more intentional ownership experience in one of Maui’s most enduring and sought-after oceanfront communities.
