Wailea Palms: Gated Privacy & Oceanview Living Above It All

Tucked into the upper reaches of Wailea with commanding views of the Pacific, Wailea Palms is a private, gated condominium enclave designed for those who crave space, serenity, and a refined sense of home. This low-density, adult-oriented community is the quiet counterpart to its more transient neighbors—delivering a distinctly elevated lifestyle for second-home seekers and full-time residents alike.

If you’re looking for panoramic sunsets, golf-course proximity, and a more peaceful take on South Maui luxury, Wailea Palms might be exactly what you’ve been waiting for.

Elevated Wailea, From a Different Perspective

Unlike many short-term rental-friendly properties nearby, Wailea Palms are residential condominiums, creating an atmosphere that’s a bit more relaxed and private. With wide greenbelts, mature landscaping, and generous spacing between buildings, this community was designed with quiet enjoyment in mind.

Perched on a gentle slope just above the world-renowned Wailea resorts and beaches, residents enjoy sweeping views of Molokini, Kahoʻolawe, and the West Maui Mountains—all from the comfort of expansive lanais that truly feel like outdoor living rooms.
