Top Reasons to Buy in Kai Malu, Wailea, HI

Unrivaled On-Site Amenities
The heart of social and physical wellness in the neighborhood is the Hale Nanea clubhouse, a world-class facility exclusive to residents and their guests. You can spend your afternoons at the 75-foot saltwater infinity pool that appears to spill directly into the ocean or utilize the fitness center, which features panoramic views to keep you motivated during your workout. The clubhouse also includes a spa, steam room, sauna, and a community library, ensuring that relaxation is always just a short walk from your front door.

Practical and Private Living
Every residence in the community is designed with functionality in mind, including an attached 2-car garage that provides ample space for vehicles and outdoor gear like surfboards or golf clubs. Unlike many other condominium complexes in the area that rely on carports or open parking lots, these private garages offer security and extra storage. The layout of the townhomes, being duplex-style, also means you only share one common wall, significantly increasing the sense of privacy and quiet compared to traditional high-rise or multi-unit condo buildings.

A Welcoming Environment for All
Finding high-end real estate that accommodates the whole family can be a challenge, but this is a pet friendly residential enclave that understands the importance of your four-legged companions. The community allows for pets with some reasonable restrictions, and the wide, manicured walking paths throughout the 25-acre property are perfect for daily strolls. The abundance of green space and the neighborhood’s “residents-only” vibe make it one of the most comfortable places in Wailea for pet owners to call home.
