Luxury Maui condos have been the focus of master planning since the resort at Kaanapali was conceived. Although home sites are available, the condo complexes are the attraction here. The Kaanapali Alii, for instance, consists of eight acres of luxury Maui condos built right on the white sandy beach. Just up the road at the 1,500-acre Kapalua Resort is an equally sumptuous community consisting of lavish condos surrounded by spas, elegant restaurants, boutiques, tennis courts, horse trails, and world-championship golf courses. At Wailea, south of these two resorts, more secluded, tranquil communities cater to those who also can afford the luxurious surroundings. Wailea's award-winning, luxury Maui condos are designed for privacy and security in gated sites. Fantastic Weather, Stunning Setting The entire southern part of the island of Maui has fabulous beaches, enticing waters, and spectacular vistas of neighboring Lanai and Molokai. Molokai, itself, has some luxury condos set near manicured golf courses. With seven condo projects for viewing, Molokai Hawaii real estate offers a variety of homes on this secluded island. Luxury homes on Maui are in areas with great weather and gorgeous views. Outdoor living is a given, what with the sunny days and pleasant nights. With many recreational activities to choose from, a visitor or resident has a never-ending array of choices every day. Snorkeling, deep-sea diving, swimming, surfing, jet skiing, kayaking--these are a few of the watersports that are available to visitors to this paradise.
