Other Amenities
Guests of Hale O’Honu get full use of KaMilo’s spectacular, 2 acre Recreation Center, which is about a 90 second walk from the home.
The Rec Center offers a gorgeous, mosaic tile lap pool, a large lagoon style family pool, a children’s wading pool, two Jacuzzi spas, a workout building with exercise machines, free-weights and showers (with separate men’s and women’s locker rooms).
There is also a large, covered pavilion adjacent to the lagoon pool with a kitchen, BBQ, sink and fridge – a perfect place to have a meal, host a party or enjoy a relaxing cocktail (or two).
Access to a Private Beach Paradise
The private Mauna Lani Beach Club (a gate card that we provide our guests allows entrance) is only a couple minutes drive away and is another perk of renting Hale O’Honu.
It is a picturesque white sand beach - a true oasis - perfect for snorkeling (one of the best snorkel spots on the whole island), swimming, kayaking and stand up paddling (there is a fully stocked rental kiosk at the beach). Or, if you just want to relax, the Beach Club offers cabanas and lounge chairs (free of charge), so just grab your favorite book and you’re set.
There is also an excellent restaurant and bar at the Beach Club where you can eat and take in the view of nearby Maui or order your food to go and picnic on the beach. And sunsets here are just breathtaking!
Hale O’Honu is within the Mauna Lani resort, close to both Auberge and the Fairmont Orchid Hotels.
