The Wailea Condo Market
.jpg)
The Wailea community was thoughtfully developed and offers a low-density, luxury experience that is uniquely its own among the Hawaiian Islands.
Beginning with the development of Wailea Ekahi along with the Wailea Blue Golf Course and the Wailea Fairway Estates in the 1970s, Wailea expanded to become the number one luxury market on Maui. Learn more about the Wailea Real Estate Market.
From the Wailea Beach Villas to the newly completed developments at Makalii and Lai Loa, there are many different types of condo communities to consider, and I've provided my insights along with everything you should know about Wailea here on my website.
Long-Term vs. Short-Term Condos in Wailea
.jpg)
Two newer condo developments recently finished construction in Wailea: Makalii, which hit the resale market in late 2021 and early 2022, and La'i Loa, which finished construction in Q4 2024; neither allows short-term rentals.
There are no current permits for the construction of any new short-term rentable condos, which means Wailea is the ideal location for those looking for a community feel with the added luxury of privacy.
Luxury condos in Wailea aren’t like the high-rise blocks elsewhere in Maui - here you’ll find most condos are divided amongst low-rise buildings set amongst acres of immaculately kept gardens, with shared amenities that are nothing less than superb. One of the most attractive features of the short-term rentable condos for sale in Wailea is the rental revenue. Learn more about the complexes that allow short-term rentals and the short-term rental rules.
The rental revenues are significant among these STR condos, and if you ever have a question about how much a unit can generate, please reach out to me at evan@mauieliteproperty.com for a complimentary pro forma from our property management division.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wailea Condos
How much do condos in Wailea cost?
Pricing varies significantly by community and view. Entry-level condos in complexes like Wailea Elua can start in the $1-2 million range, while oceanfront communities like Wailea Point range from around $2.8 million for a smaller unit up to $14 million or more for the largest, most prominent residences.
Newer developments like La'i Loa start around $2.5 million and reach $6 million for the largest penthouses.
Can I use a Wailea condo as a short-term rental?
It depends entirely on the specific community, not the Wailea area as a whole. Some complexes like Ho'olei and Wailea Beach Villas are zoned for short-term rental, while others, like Wailea Palms and La'i Loa, prohibit it or require minimum six-month leases.
Confirm a building's specific rules before assuming rental income is possible, and reach out for a complimentary pro forma if you want a clearer picture of potential rental revenue for a specific property.
What are the best condo communities in Wailea?
It depends on what you're prioritizing. Wailea Point and Wailea Elua sit directly on the water for true oceanfront living. Ho'olei offers resort-style villas with hotel-grade amenities.
Makalii and La'i Loa represent Wailea's newest construction with modern design. Kanani Wailea and Wailea Palms suit buyers looking for a quieter, long-term residential feel away from short-term rental turnover.
Are Wailea condos gated?
Most are. Nearly every major Wailea condo community, including Wailea Point, Wailea Palms, Kanani Wailea, and Makalii, operates as a gated community, which is a big part of the privacy and security that draws buyers to Wailea specifically.
What luxury condos are available in Wailea, Maui?
Wailea offers some of the most luxurious condo inventory on Maui, including oceanfront communities like Wailea Point and Wailea Elua, resort-style villas at Ho'olei, and newer developments like La'i Loa and Makalii with modern architecture and high-end amenities.
Hillside communities like Keala O' Wailea and Kanani Wailea round out the offerings with panoramic ocean and mountain views in a quieter setting.
What's available in Kapalua vs. Wailea?
Both are premier resort communities, but they feel different. Wailea centers on calmer south-facing beaches, championship golf, and a dense cluster of luxury condo communities close together.
Kapalua, on Maui's northwest coast, offers a quieter, more exclusive atmosphere with its own oceanfront and golf-course condo communities, including the Ritz-Carlton Residences and Montage Residences at Kapalua Bay. Browse our Kapalua condos for sale to compare current inventory directly.
