For most buying a home on Maui is a lifestyle choice. We aren’t a center of commerce. You don’t come here for shopping or night life. It takes a minimum of five hours to get here via plane. People buy homes on Maui for natural beauty, climate and for the general lifestyle offered. For the North Shore of Maui, the ocean and the world class water sports offered are an integral part of that lifestyle. We recently hosted a broker’s event that was a little unusual. With a couple of listings that really appeal to those who love ocean sports, Billy and Martin came up with an idea that highlighted the amazing attributes of these two respective properties.
The Maui Real Estate Team invited a group of ocean sport loving Realtors for a downwind coast run that started at our listing at 78 Aleiki Place on Kuau Point and ended at Sugar Cove Building 6 in Spreckelsville. Most of the participants used wing foils to go down the coast. We had one agent riding a stand up foil and Kai Lenny used his kite. Kai’s brother Ridge, who is an agent in our office, narrates the video below that shows highlights from the event.
The condominium home at 78 Aleiki is just steps from the Kuau Point launch. If you like to wing, windsurf, SUP, or surf. There are a couple of surf breaks accessible just off the point. Of course, it’s also a great spot for starting a downwind run to Spreckelsville, Kanaha Beach Park or Kahului Harbor. Sugar Cove is a great spot for pretty much any ocean sport you can imagine. Surf, SUP, kite, windsurf, wing, body board or body surf off this great little beach.
Needless to say, the participants said this was a lot more fun than any other real estate event they ever attended. Not only was it a good chance to highlight the two properties, it was also a good reminder to all participants on just how lucky we are to call Maui our home.

Whoever said bigger is better, has yet to step foot in our charming beachfront, Hawaiian Plantation style home that we just listed in Kuau. This two bedroom/one bath cottage exudes charm and offers an ideal setting. You have back yard access to all of the Maui North Shore ocean sports. The windsurfing and surfing are great off of Kuau Point. You don’t need to rely on the notoriously fickle Hookipa Cam to check the surf at Ho’okipa Beach Park. Just look upwind from your back yard to get a gauge on the wind and the waves. Ho’okipa’s multitude of breaks attracts surfers, kiters and windsurfers from all over the globe. If you like to SUP, you can wave to friends and family sitting on the back porch as you paddle downwind on the world renowned Maliko run. If you prefer tamer pursuits in the ocean, the sands of Mama’s Beach are perfect for lounging and a reef keeps the waters right off the beach protected from the waves. It is a perfect place to cool off from the mid day sun.
The Kuau Point location is less than a mile from downtown Paia. There you will find charming shops, restaurants, galleries, yoga studios and the best little natural food store on the planet. Costco, The Maui Arts and Cultural Center, Kahului Aiport, Movie Theaters and UH Maui College are about 15 minutes away in Central Maui. Last but not least, one of the island’s best and most renowned restaurants is just a few doors down from the home. You are about a two minute walk from Mama’s Fish House and its Mai Tais, delectable Ceviche and melt in your mouth Sashimi.
If you have a bigger family or you expect lots of house guests, this property does give you the option to grow. The lot is over 13,000 square feet with the room and the zoning to build an additional structure.
This beachfront opportunity is offered via the Maui Real Estate Team for $2,750,000. Check out the 129 Aleiki Place listing page for additional photos and details. Qualified buyers should contact The Maui Real Estate Team to arrange a showing.
