Walkable neighborhoods with mountain views and modern homes
At the foot of the lush West Maui Mountains, Wailuku offers cooler temperatures and a lifestyle of modern conveniences. It’s home to one of Maui’s largest master planned communities, enhancing its pleasant, upbeat vibe. Realtor Adam Miller with Real Broker says, “Wailuku is more of a commercial area than nearby Waikapu. You have government buildings in Wailuku, as well as Main Street through the center. Wailuku also has Kehalani, one of only two planned communities on Maui. And across Kehalani’s more than a dozen neighborhoods, you can find everything from condos in the $500,000 range to $2 million-plus properties to new construction. It’s walkable, bikable, close to major retailers and services, and the views are epic. From some homes, you can see the sunrise and sunset on both coasts.”
Homes in Wailuku sit beneath rolling mountains in an idyllic Hawaiian landscape.

In Ho’olea Terrace, homeowners can view ships in the harbor from two-story condos averaging around $600,000. Condos with Spanish-style roof tiles and earthtone stucco exteriors are found in the gated Villas in Kehalani for around $900,000. Two-story townhouses for around $700,000 comprise Iliahi.

Wailuku offers an assortment of eateries, including A Saigon Café, which is famous for Vietnamese soups crafted with only fresh ingredients. Locals line up at the quaint Japanese-Hawaiian Ichiban Okazuya for customized meals incorporating tempura, steamed veggies, fish cakes and other scrumptious ingredients. Maui Coffee Attic draws a following for its house pastries and live music on the patio, and the hip, family-owned Wailuku Coffee Company in a converted gas station is popular for its full espresso bar and build-your-own sandwiches and salads. Since 1994, Stillwell’s Bakery and Café has also been well worth visiting; their signature homemade Chinese chicken salad, elegant cakes and decadent cream horns are crowd-pleasers.
