Other things to note
Alaeloa is a very special place. A gated ocean-front community, it promotes open space and an old Hawaiian, residential feel. Many say "Alaeloa is not just a place, but a state of mind". Sunset Magazine referred to Alaeloa as "The Pebble Beach of the Pacific" when it was completed in 1965, and it continually reminds owners and guests of the quaint "Old Hawaii" neighborhoods of the past. Conveniently located in Napili, we are close to shopping, golf, tennis and the resorts of Kapalua and Ka'anapali, and historic Lahaina Town. Our community enjoys terrific ocean, sunset, and outer island views. Alaeloa amenities include spacious manicured grounds, a mango grove, a crescent beach and easy ocean access. There is a large heated saline pool, a pavilion with kitchen, bathrooms and showers. Ask about longer stay discounts. We look forward to hosting you in this paradise! License number

👣 Why You Should Always Take Off Your Shoes Before Entering a Hawaiian Home?

🌺 In Hawaiʻi, removing your shoes at the door isn’t just about keeping the floor clean — it’s a deep-rooted sign of respect influenced by local and Asian cultural values. Stepping inside with shoes on can unintentionally show a lack of awareness or even disrespect toward the household.

🌿 The home is considered a sacred, peaceful space — leaving your shoes outside means you’re also leaving behind the dust, noise, and stress of the outside world.

💡 Pro tip: When visiting someone’s home (or even an Airbnb), look for a pile of slippers at the door. If in doubt, just ask — and always choose respect over convenience.
