I Love to Paddle Canoe #mauiliving
One of my favorite pastimes since relocating to Maui almost 10 years ago is actually the State Sport – paddling in a 6 man outrigger canoe. There’s nothing like greeting the sunrise from the water at the dawn of a new day. I have met so many friends and developed an extended family or “ohana” while playing on the beach in the summertime. I give my time to my canoe club Lae’ula o Kai on the Board of Directors, and I feel supported by a community of professionals and participants with a common interest. From the kupuna (elders) to the keiki (children), it enriches your lives to interact on a recreational level. There are so many Reasons Maui and the beach are good for You.
This article posted in the Ka’hiau – community segment of The Maui News talks about my passion for paddling canoe and how you can get involved.
Practices begin early in the year and get more intense during springtime in preparation for the summer regatta season. Get it touch if you want to participate! They place you by division so you will always be amongst others at your age and skill level.
You know they say life expectancy is great in the islands, and I think we can attribute that to a more active lifestyle (in our earlier and later years), and a more relaxed pace and lifestyle. I relocated from the Los Angeles market almost 10 years ago and can help others considering Relocating to Maui. I look forward to connecting with my clients and introducing them to Maui’s best neighborhoods.
There’s something for everybody in Hawaii. If you’re considering a change, reach out!
Life is short, let’s get your toes in the sand.
Wailea Condos That Allow Pets
Furry friends belong in paradise too! Ever wonder which luxury developments in South Maui allow pets? Take a look at these popular Wailea developments when considering where to purchase a home in South Maui that your pet can enjoy too!
Kai Malu – This is an excellent option for someone looking for more space and to spread out. 150 2-story units total, some with a downstairs master. These sophisticated townhouse style units are built in 2007, with fresh spaces and high ceilings. A refined complex with infinity pool, and pavilion perfet for entertaining and well situated on 25 hillside acres of golf course. You’ll notice many full-time residents in this community, as no short-term rentals are allowed.
Kanani Wailea – built in 2007, 38 home sites on 8 hillside acres. The lowest priced large footprint condominiums in all of Wailea. Over 2000 sq. ft. and starting in the low million range, these have high end finishes and are about half way down the hill so you still catch views and backlit sunsets. A great option for someone who wants the space but not the yard maintenance. No short term rentals are allowed in this gated development.
Keala o Wailea – Built in 2017, there are 69 brand new 2 and 3 bedroom units perched on the hillside just as you come into Wailea. This well thought out development was affordable with pricesstating at 819k, and they were 95% sold when they released the first set of keys last month. New construction is catching a lot of attention in South Maui, and there are 2 left in this location. No vacation rentals allowed.
Makali’i at Wailea – Just breaking ground and already 65% sold, these 68 luxury modern 2-3 bedroom townhouses are starting in the 1.3 range. The team at Armstrong has promised us a “view above the treetops”, and a product much more modern and contemporary than Wailea has ever seen before – think “Andaz”. It’ll be exciting to see what the finished product is like and what kind of owners end up residing there as this one is for long term residents only.
Polo Beach Club – Absolute supreme South Maui complex next door to the famed Fairmont Kea Lani hotel. Built in 1982, this is a 71-unit high rise is on 2.5 acres of the most pristine sandy beachfront. Enjoy an active lifestyle with regular beach walks and picturesque sunsets from your lanai. Well performing short term rentals are generated from this one-of-a-kind location.
Ekahi – From studios, to 2 bedroom townhouse style units, this large development of 294 units graced Maui in 1976. Well located on 34 acres with easy access to the beach, world-class resorts and golf. A great option for one looking for passive income or possibly a place to return to year after year with minimal maintenance.
Ekolu – Known for excellent location and affordability, these 146 units span from small studios to large 2 bedrooms with garden and ocean views. Built in 1979 and on 18 hillside acres of golf course, this is a very desirable place to spend an island vacation, as evidenced by the popularity of short term rentals found here.
Elua – Known for ample sized footprints, some units with independent garages, the easy beach access, and extraordinary views. These 152 larger scale units were built in 1977, and provide easy access to beach walks and activities on 24 acres of South Maui beachfront. Luxury vacation rentals are allowed in this complex.
Wailea Fairway Villas – Newer development built on the top of the hill in 1998 with 118 townhouse style units on 12 acres of golf greens. Higher ceilings and lofts make this a comfortable place for long term living. Stable neighbors with no short-term rentals allowed. These are a great “lock and leave” investment in Wailea.
Wailea Palms – 120 units and 16 2 story units, known as phase 2 of the development allows pets but does not allow short term rentals. Concrete construction keeps the units cool and they’re just a short stroll to Keawakapu beach. Another terrific option for the long-term resident looking to be central.
– The ultimate in South Maui luxury. These front row, high end luxury condominiums are awesome for someone who wants the best in everything. Large floorplans, wide open spaces, and private lanais are what you can expect from these units. Panoramic views from some, reach out and touch the ocean from others… these 130 units are on 28 acres of oceanfront, directly on the beach path in a complex full of amenities for only the most exclusive buyers.
If you’re interested in honing in on the development that is right for you, reach out.
