Palms at Wailea is a Gated Resort on 16 Tropical Acres in Wailea
Palms at Wailea is a gated Mediterranean-style condo resort in the heart of Wailea — 150 units across low-rise two-story buildings on roughly 16 acres of tropical landscaping, garden streams, lily ponds, and paved walking paths, about a ten-minute walk from Keawakapu Beach.
The property centers on a signature whale-shaped saltwater pool with ocean views and a hot tub, surrounded by BBQ areas, a covered outdoor lounge, and manicured lawns. The low-rise building design and 16-acre spread keep density low and common areas uncrowded.
Interior finishes and bed configurations are owner-selected and vary between the two condos — the MPP team walks you through each unit’s layout, bed setup, and view at booking so you can match the right condo to your group.
Palms at Wailea stays through MPP carry no resort fee — confirmed at booking. Parking is included per unit at no extra charge. On the property side, the saltwater pool, hot tub, BBQ grills, covered lounge, and 16 acres of tropical grounds are the headline shared amenities.
The gated entry and private setting distinguish Palms at Wailea from the larger beachfront complexes in the Wailea corridor.
For broader planning, our Wailea vacation rentals page and the wider South Maui collection walk through the area’s beach corridor; our MPP Vacations rentals page covers the rest of the island, including the luxury collection.
Keawakapu Beach is roughly a ten-minute walk — a long, sandy stretch popular for morning swims and sunset strolls. Ulua Beach and Polo Beach are a short drive south along the coast.
The Shops at Wailea (dining, boutiques, grocery) sit about a minute’s drive down Wailea Alanui Drive. Kihei’s restaurants and beach parks are five to ten minutes north; Maʻalaea Harbor (the launch point for most Molokini snorkel trips) is about twenty minutes north.
During humpback whale season (November through April) the Wailea coast is one of South Maui’s most reliable whale-watching stretches.
