West Maui Oceanfront Homes for Sale

West Maui, which stretches from Olowalu to Kapalua, naturally has a very limited number of oceanfront homes unlike other coastal areas of the island.  A majority of the oceanfront homes here are on rocky beaches or points, and only a handful are located on the beaches in Olowalu, Lahaina, Kaanapali, Kahana, Napili and Kapalua.

I was recently asked to write a piece for MauiNow.com on living in Kapalua.  It quickly morphed into a piece on the Kapalua Hiking and Walking Trails, as I realized that they are my favorite part of living in Kapalua.  There is so much natural beauty in the resort--it is just 1600 acres set within 22,000+ acres of conservation land.  There is a 45 acre marine preserve, and the area is home to endangered species.

The Kapalua Golf Villas: Market Spotlight

Kapalua Golf Villas for Sale

Introducing four spectacular new listings at the Kapalua Golf Villas!

The Kapalua Golf Villas is home to me--I've lived here for the last seven years, and love the proximity to restaurants, the walking/hiking trails, beaches, and even though I don't play (because I'm horrible at it), golf.  

The Golf Villas enjoy a sheltered location, oriented to the West and South West overlooking the Bay Course.  This means that the villas tend to be out of the prevailing trade winds, and have amazing sunset views. Depending on the building's orientation, you may find views of Lanai, Molokai, and of course, the golfers making their way up the 10th fairway and back home to the clubhouse on 18.
