EXCEPTIONAL OCEANFRONT ESTATES - NAPILI, MAUI Where the Pacific caresses the emerald shores of Maui, two island sanctuaries celebrate the Hawaiian art of living in its noblest expression. The Exclusivity On the legendary emerald coast of Napili, West Maui, two oceanfront properties are unveiled that reinvent island luxury. Spread over 2,300 sqm (25,000 sqft) of prime oceanfront land, these twin residences embody two distinct architectural visions of the same Hawaiian dream: living in absolute symbiosis with the Pacific. One celebrates indoor-outdoor fluidity with a pool meandering through the living spaces, while the other stands out with its spectacular indoor pool crowned by high glass ceilings capturing the changing light of the ocean. Together, these estates totalling 531 sqm (5,716 sqft) of living space and six bedrooms form an incomparable island sanctuary, offering the rare possibility of a group or separate acquisition according to the aspirations of each buyer. Facing the majestic silhouettes of Molokai and Lanai, with the spectacular sunsets over the Pailolo Channel as a daily backdrop, these properties represent much more than a real estate investment: it is the invitation to embrace that authentic Hawaiian lifestyle where every day becomes a celebration of natural generosity. The Atmosphere - Living Face to Face with the Pacific Imagine those mornings when the first golden rays glide over the turquoise waters of the Pacific. From the vast bay windows, the gaze embraces the oceanic immensity punctuated by the distant silhouettes of Molokai and Lanai. Sea turtles, regular visitors to this protected bay, gracefully emerge to the surface, their ancient shells gleaming under the Hawaiian sun. This aquatic ballet, observed from the comfort of one's terrace with a steaming Kona coffee in hand, becomes a daily, never-tiring ritual. The Pailolo Channel, the arm of the sea separating Maui from the neighbouring islands, forms a living tableau that renews itself constantly. Humpback whales, from December to May, make their majestic migrations here, offering unforgettable spectacles: acrobatic breaches, powerful spouts of water, and mysterious songs carried by the currents. In summer, the calm waters are adorned with infinite shades of blue and green, inviting exploratory dives on world-renowned sites accessible with a few strokes from the property. Hawaiian sunsets, celebrated worldwide for their dramatic intensity, take on an almost spiritual dimension here. Every evening, without exception, the sky is ablaze with orange, pink, and purple hues that reflect on the calm waters of the channel. The silhouettes of Molokai and Lanai stand out in stark shadows against this celestial blaze, creating photographic compositions that need no filter or retouching. These suspended moments, experienced with a Mai Tai in hand from one's private pool, constitute the supreme privilege offered by these exceptional properties. Winter brings a whole different energy. The powerful North Pacific swells transform the coast into a playground for experienced surfers. Observing these athletes gliding on sometimes monumental waves becomes a captivating daily spectacle. For enthusiasts, putting on a wetsuit and joining the lineup just steps from home represents a luxury that few residences in the world can offer. 5163 Lower Honoapiilani Road - Aquatic Fluidity The Essence of the Property This 272 sqm (2,928 sqft) residence set on 809 sqm (8,708 sqft) of oceanfront land embodies the quintessence of contemporary Hawaiian architecture. Designed by its original owners in 1976, it has benefited over the decades from personalized renovations that demonstrate an obsessive attention to detail. Every architectural element, every aesthetic choice reveals this quest for excellence that transforms a simple beach house into a habitable work of art. The Unique Architectural Concept The signature element of this property lies in its custom pool that defies architectural conventions: rather than being relegated outside according to tradition, it literally meanders through the living spaces , creating an unparalleled aquatic experience. This bold design abolishes all boundaries between interior and exterior, between living space and natural element. One can thus swim from the sun-exposed terrace to a semi-covered area, then exit on the other side of the residence, creating a fun and refreshing aquatic journey. The architectural elements integrate this presence of water with natural elegance: walkways spanning the basin, underwater bay windows allowing swimmers to be observed from the living areas, and emergent islets creating resting zones flush with the water. This indoor-outdoor fluidity characteristic of successful Hawaiian tropical living reaches its most accomplished expression here. Three Ocean-Facing Bedrooms The three bedrooms , intelligently distributed to preserve privacy, all benefit from generous openings onto the Pacific. The two full bathrooms , with meticulous finishes in the contemporary Hawaiian spirit, combine functionality and island aesthetic with that attention to detail that makes all the difference. The master suite captures the most spectacular views of Molokai and Lanai. Falling asleep lulled by the murmur of the waves, waking up facing the first golden light stroking the ocean: these daily rituals transform every night into a privileged experience. Privileged Exteriors Direct ocean access from the garden constitutes the supreme luxury. Just a few steps separate the terrace from the crystal-clear waters where sea turtles, multicoloured tropical fish, and sometimes mischievous dolphins roam. The protected bay guarantees safe swimming conditions even during winter swells, creating this private aquatic paradise accessible at any hour. The custom jacuzzi , strategically positioned to maximize ocean perspectives, naturally becomes the meeting point for late afternoons. Relaxing there facing the sunset, with therapeutic bubbles massaging away accumulated tension, constitutes one of the great joys of life in Napili. 5157 Lower Honoapiilani Road - The Glass Cathedral The Essence of the Property This contemporary 260 sqm (2,798 sqft) residence spread over a generous 1,537 sqm (16,544 sqft) plot represents a radically different yet equally captivating architectural vision. Built in 1975 with a shake roof and concrete foundations guaranteeing solidity and authenticity against the marine elements, it stands out with its spectacular centerpiece: an indoor pool crowned by high glass ceilings that create a unique cathedral of natural light. The Extraordinary Indoor Pool The signature element of this property transcends a simple pool to become a true architectural statement. Beneath imposing glass ceilings structured like a contemporary conservatory, the indoor basin captures and amplifies the changing light of the Pacific. In the morning, oblique rays create moving shadow play on the calm water. In the afternoon, zenithal light transforms the pool into a liquid mirror reflecting the sky. In the evening, the Hawaiian stars, of a density unknown at our latitudes, twinkle above the swimmers, creating an almost mystical experience. This configuration allows for swimming in all weather—tropical rainy days take on a particular poetic dimension, the drumming on the glass roof accompanying the strokes—while maintaining that permanent visual connection with the natural environment. The lateral glass walls open completely on perfect days, transforming the space into a tropical pavilion open to the ocean. Generous Main Residence The 218 sqm (2,347 sqft) main house deploys two spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms in a configuration that favours open living spaces. The architectural concept deliberately blurs the boundaries between inside and out: wide sliding doors disappear into the walls, creating a spatial continuity where the living room, terrace, and ocean garden form a single fluid space. The modern kitchen , equipped with high-end appliances—generous refrigerator, professional stove, high-performance oven and microwave—opens onto the reception areas, facilitating that Hawaiian conviviality where meal preparation becomes a shared moment. The carpeted floors—a surprising yet judicious choice in this climate—provide softness and natural thermal comfort. Central air conditioning guarantees optimal comfort on rare intensely hot days, although the intelligent orientation and cross-ventilation naturally maintain pleasant temperatures most of the time. The built-in washer and dryer complete these practical amenities essential for daily island life. Independent Guest Cottage The detached 42 sqm (452 sqft) cottage comprising one bedroom and one bathroom constitutes a valuable versatile asset. It comfortably accommodates extended family or visiting friends, preserving everyone's privacy while maintaining proximity. For owners absent for several months a year, it also generates an appreciable rental income via vacation rental platforms, as visitors actively seek these small, independent units with authentic charm.
