    <description> <![CDATA[ 
Introducing Alaeloa 38





Alaeloa is a hidden gem nestled along the picturesque coastline of Napili.  This tranquil and idyllic enclave is home to just 42 residences situated on 13 beautifully landscaped oceanfront acres.  


Alaeloa 38 is a free-standing three-bedroom cottage with vaulted ceilings and a spacious covered lanai with views of the ocean and Molokai.  Nestled in a mango grove, the property has the charm and feel of Old Hawaii.





Located on the western coast of Maui, Alaeloa surrounds a pristine bay with stunning views of the Pacific Ocean and neighboring islands. This intimate and secluded bay provides a private haven to relax, soak up the sun, and listen to the soothing sound of waves gently lapping against the shore. The calm waters are perfect for swimming, snorkeling, paddleboarding, kayaking and, in the winter, when the swells come in, surfing at the north end of the Bay.


Alaeloa's prime location in Napili makes it an excellent base for exploring Maui.  Nearby Napili Bay is one of Maui's most loved beaches.  Known for its crescent-shaped beach, it is anchored by the popular Sea House and Gazebo Restaurants.  Further North is the Kapalua Resort, which is home to the Bay and Plantation Golf Courses, the Kapalua Tennis Gardens, five beaches, hiking and walking trails, and The Montage Kapalua Bay and Ritz-Carlton Resorts.


Alaeloa is a leasehold property.  Read More about Leasehold Ownership

    <description> <![CDATA[ 
Introducing 330 Cook Pine Drive: elevated living in Kapalua's Pineapple Hill Community





Sunset at Pineapple Hill from 330 Cook Pine Drive


This is a rare offering of of one of only six homes on an oversized lot in Pineapple Hill.  This gracious estate is nestled on a hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean framed by the neighboring islands of Molokai and Lanai.  


This private ocean view estate is situated on approximately a half-acre in one of Kapalua’s most popular neighborhoods, Pineapple Hill. Remodeled in 2018 with a contemporary, elegant island inspired design, this home is one of the most secluded in the community. 


The main home is comprised of a spacious living room with a fireplace and soaring ceilings, a gourmet kitchen and ocean view dining room, wet bar, home theatre, three ensuite bedrooms, and an office loft.  A detached suite complete with a full bath offers a flexible space for guests or an artist’s studio with an abundance of natural light and its own entrance. 


One of the loveliest features is the garden--a tropical oasis that wraps around the side of the home complete with a gazebo, waterfall and a stone edged pool and secluded hot tub.  There is a sheltered lanai area overlooking the garden as well as a large lawn, with vistas of the Pacific Ocean and the neighboring islands of Molokai and Lanai perfectly framing Maui’s spectacular sunsets over the Pailolo Chanel. 


A chef’s dream, the kitchen features custom wood cabinetry cloaked in Lemurian Blue granite, an induction cooktop, oven and dishwasher by Miele, and Subzero refrigerator, freezer and ice maker.  Just off the kitchen and dining room is an outdoor kitchen with a Lynx built in BBQ. 


The primary bedroom suite is tucked away in the Southwest corner of the home, and features ocean and garden views, hardwood floors, custom draperies and furnishings, and a reimagined bath, a sanctuary with granite walls, a walk-in shower and a gorgeous soaking tub. 


Impeccably maintained by the current owners, this stunning home is offered fully furnished and turnkey.  This is a rare offering of one of only six homes situated on two or more contiguous lots in Pineapple Hill, allowing for an expanded custom floor plan surrounded by tropical gardens. 


Amenities within the gated Pineapple Hill community include an onsite manager, community pavilion, pool, gardens, a tennis court, and two pickleball courts  Pineapple Hill is located in the heart of the Kapalua Resort, which is known for its championship golf courses, restaurants, beaches, and hiking and walking trails.  The resort is achored by two five star hotels: the Montage Kapalua Bay and the Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua.  





Enjoy ocean views from the beautifully furnished contemporary living room, complete with a fireplace





Off the primary bedroom suite is a peaceful and private lagoon area, with a pool, spa and gazebo surrounded by tropical landscaping





Just off the kitchen and through the sliding doors is an ocean-view outdoor kitchen and dining area.


The sleek and modern kitchen features an induction cooktop, with appliances by Miele and Subzero.  The kitchen is separated from the living area but open to the dining area and exterior gardens, making it perfect for entertaining.





The ocean facing dining room takes in the dramatic ocean views and opens to gracious lanais and a beautifully manicured lawn.





The primary bedroom suite features ocean and garden views, and opens to the oasis in the side yard.





The side yard oasis is a relaxing and peaceful area with ample covered areas to allow you to enjoy the whole day outside.

        <title>At Home on the Ocean: Kapalua Bay Villas 35B2</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
Introducing Kapalua Bay Villas 35B2: oceanfront living in Kapalua





This is a rare offering of an oceanfront Kapalua Bay Villa located along the spectacular Kapalua coast.  This spacious one bedroom, two bathroom townhouse floor plan is situated overlooking Hāwea Point.  It has been beautifully renovated with thoughtful attention to detail.


At the Kapalua Bay Villas, the bridge-level townhouse floor plan is coveted as it offers ocean views from both the upstairs and downstairs living spaces. 


Downstairs the kitchen, living room and lanai are oriented to the view.  Upstairs, the spacious bedroom suite and upstairs lanai have views of the ocean and outer island of Moloka'i. 


The first thing that grabbed the owner's attention was the view of the neighbor island of Molokai, which is perfectly framed by the living room windows.  Positioned on the West side of the building, this location is sheltered from the trade winds providing the perfect vantage point for whale watching and experiencing Maui’s incredible sunsets. 


The covered lanai downstairs overlooks Hāwea Point, which is under the stewardship of the Hawai’i Land Trust and is home to the endangered seabird, the ’Ua’u Kani.  In the winter and spring, this is an incredible spot for whale watching. 


Beautifully renovated, the owners added special touches to the kitchen, with custom cabinetry and a wine fridge, and pampas reed resin windows for privacy.


The upstairs bedroom suite has been expanded to create a private suite, while simultaneously allowing for more closet space and a seating area that has incredible views of the ocean.


The upstairs bathroom has been renovated creating a more open feel with a walk-in shower.


The gated Bay Villas community is situated along the Kapalua Coastal trail and has direct beach access to Oneloa Bay.





In addition to three swimming pools and BBQ areas, the Bay Villas has two tennis/pickleball courts.


Next door is the Montage Kapalua Bay and Spa Montage.  The Bay Villas are located in the heart of the Kapalua Resort, which is known for its championship golf courses, restaurants, beaches, and hiking and walking trails.

        <title>Maui Real Estate Statistics: September 2022</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
Each month, the Realtor's Association of Maui publishes updates on the Maui real estate market.  The report notes


&quot;New Listings decreased 39.3 percent for Single Family homes and 52.7 percent for Condominium homes.Pending Sales decreased 30.7 percent for Single Family homes and 36.0 percent for Condominium homes.Inventory increased 7.8 percent for Single Family homes and 9.7 percent for Condominium homes.Median Sales Price increased 3.0 percent to $1,025,000 for Single Family homes and 9.7 percent to $800,000 for Condominium homes. Days on Market increased 10.7 percent for Single Family homes but decreased 31.5 percent for Condominium homes. Months Supply of Inventory increased 45.0 percent for Single Family homes and 50.0 percent for Condominium homes.


Affordability challenges have priced many buyers out of the market this year, and buyers who do succeed in purchasing a home are finding that the costs of homeownership have increased significantly, with monthly mortgage payments more than 55 higher than a year ago, according to the National Association of REALTORS®. Inventory remains lower than normal, and as the market continue to shift, experts project homes will begin to spend more days on market and price growth will slow in the months ahead.&quot;


It seems as if the frenzy of 2021 is behind us, though locations with great views in excellent condition are still commanding the interest of buyers. The South Maui resorts of Wailea and Makena continue to command the highest condominium sales prices, though the Montage Residences, Kapalua Bay are not far behind.

        <title>Introducing 322 Cook Pine: Home Site in Pineapple Hill, Kapalua</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
Introducing 322 Cook Pine, one of the last remaining undeveloped lots in Pineapple Hill





An aerial overlooking 322 Cook Pine Drive, Pineapple Hill, Kapalua





The views are focused toward the channel between Molokai and Lanai, framing Maui's spectacular sunsets


This is a rare offering of one of the last undeveloped home sites in Pineapple Hill phase I. The Design Guidelines for Pineapple Hill require the owner utilize one of six approved floor plans for the lots, which may be modified.  However, it should be noted that the foot print must be maintained and any changes must be approved by the Architectural and Design Review Committee. 


Pineapple Hill is one of Kapalua's most popular residential communities.  A gated enclave developed in two sections, Pineapple Hill (phase I) Pineapple Hill Estates (phase II).  The first phase of Pineapple Hill are smaller homesites (typically around a quarter of an acre), whereas the homes in Pineapple HIll Estates are on larger lots (approximately a half acre). 


Loved for its location in the heart of the Kapalua Resort, Pineapple Hill is close to restaurants, beaches, and golf, as well as the restaurants and offerings at the Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua and Montage Kapalua Bay hotels. Amenities include tennis and pickleball courts, a pool, an owner’s pavilion, full-time resident manager, and roving resort security.


When the two phases are combined, there are 130 homesites, however, several owners in the first phase of Pineapple Hill built homes on double lots, and one, which sold in 2021, was built on three lots.  There are only five lots in phase I and only three lots in phase II that have not yet been developed.


The Market at Pineapple Hill


At the time of this post, there are just three homes listed for sale in Pineapple Hill and Pineapple Hill Estates, with asking prices ranging from $4,995,000 to $6,495,000. 


Year to date we have had half the sales of 2021 at the beginning of the third quarter, however, the average sales price is significantly higher.  This is due, in part, to the closing of two custom homes that were built on double lots in Phase I.  314 Cook Pine and 1216 Summer, each closed at $7,900,000, thus raising the average sales price significantly.


In vacant land, there are three lots listed for sale, two are located in phase I another in Pineapple Hill Estates.  Year to date, five lots have sold and all are located in phase I, with lot sizes ranging from .23 to .36 acres.  624 Silversword, a fantastic view lot in phase I, closed at a record high $1,500,000.  This is compared with two lots selling in 2021, which were both larger home sites (.45-.48 acres) located in Pineapple Hill Estates (phase II), which commanded higher prices, so the average sales price was higher last year.

        <title>Introducing 222 Crestview Road, Pineapple Hill Estates, Kapalua</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
Introducing 222 Crestview, in Kapalua's Pineapple Hill Estates


Dramatic sunsets are a nightly occurrence--the view from 222 Crestview


222 Crestview Road is a rare offering of a home situated at the Pinnacle of Pineapple Hill Estates, the newest residential community in Pineapple Hill. 


This second phase of the development was annexed into the community in 2001, and the homesites are significantly larger at approximately a half acre.  Architectural restrictions limit the roof heights of the lots below to 25 feet, but allowed homes along the top row to be two stories, maximizing the size and the views from this location.


This beautifully designed home is centered around a sculpture garden behind a gated private entry. Thoughtful design provides privacy for each of the four-bedroom suites:  there is a ground floor primary bedroom suite complete with ocean view lanai sitting area and landscaped shower garden, as well as an upstairs primary bedroom suite with a private lanai, separate laundry, and a flex space that can be used as an office, gym or sitting room.  There are two additional bedroom suites that focus out toward the beautifully landscaped gardens.


From the moment you enter this home, across a bridge through a tropically landscaped courtyard, the views of the Pacific Ocean and the outer island of Molokai begin to unfold.  The soaring ceilings of the great room are a dramatic backdrop for a custom sculpture by Australian artist, Robert Hague, which is included with the sale.


Take a Virtual Walkthrough


The great room has a seamless indoor/outdoor flow with pocketing doors that open to the expansive lanai and infinity edge pool with a beach shelf and spa. 





The inner courtyard provides a serene setting, with floor-to-ceiling windows that will illuminate your art collection and showcases the gardens from the guest bedroom suites and the living room and filling the home with natural light. 





The kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring appliances by Sub Zero, Bosch, and Wolf, including a Sub Zero wine storage cabinet and refrigerator drawers, as well as a proofing drawer for baking.  The kitchen opens to outdoor dining with a built-in bar.

About Pineapple Hill


Pineapple Hill is one of Kapalua's most popular residential communities.  A gated enclave developed in two sections, Pineapple Hill, and later in 2001, Pineapple Hill Estates.  The first phase of Pineapple Hill are smaller homesites (typically around a quarter of an acre), whereas the homes in Pineapple HIll Estates are on larger lots (approximately a half acre). 


Combined, there are 130 homesites, however, several owners in the first phase of Pineapple Hill built homes on double lots, and one, which sold in 2021, was built on three lots.


The Market at Pineapple Hill


At the time of this post, there are just three homes listed for sale in Pineapple Hill and Pineapple Hill Estates, with asking prices ranging from $5,295,000 to $7,900,000.  There is one pending sale at $8,450,000. 


In vacant land, there are two lots listed for sale, one in phase I at $1,100,000 for a quarter acre, and another in Pineapple Hill Estates listed at $1,895,000 for just under a half acre.

        <title>Journey Back in Time: Introducing 2725 Olinda Road</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
Take a journey back in time to a simpler life…one of peace and serenity surrounded by the natural beauty of Upcountry Maui. 







This beautifully restored ranch estate was built in 1918 and is set on 60 timbered acres.  The original owners positioned the home at the edge of the ranch lands, which still surround it. The location provides for a private, serene setting and a vantage point with sweeping views across central Maui to Mauna Kahālāwai and of the waves breaking along the North Shore.


The current owners have spent several years lovingly restoring the home.  Some of these touches may not be readily apparent but took years to accomplish: each pane of glass was preserved, cleaned and replaced within refurbished window frames and hardware to match the era.  Decades of paint and wallpaper were stripped to take the home back to its original finishes.  The kitchen has been updated with modern appliances that retain the vintage charm.  Just to the south of the kitchen is a fenced-in garden and walkway covered by wisteria and climbing roses--perfect for growing your own produce, gathering vegetables for meals and flowers for the table.


The setting offers peace and seclusion, while still enjoying the amenities of today.  The large lanai features a hot tub perfectly perched to take in the views, or meander below to a private heated 30 x 80 lap pool surrounded by citrus trees.  The expansive property offers secluded hiking, surrounded by the wildlife of Upcountry, including pheasants and deer. 


At an elevation of 3573 feet, this Olinda is the perfect escape from the tropical heat, your own mountain retreat.  Makawao is a thriving Upcountry town known for it's shops, restaurants, and T. Komoda's Store and Bakery.  Just a short drive is Seabury Hall, one of Maui's best preparatory schools.  


Take in the best of life upcountry: hiking in the nearby Makawao Forest Reserve, shop at the Kula Farmer’s Market, watch a Polo match down the road at Oskie Rice Arena, or enjoy the quiet beauty of this secluded country home.


To read more about the history of the home and to see the changes the current owners have made, read more in Maui No Ka Oi Magazine.
