In addition, our commercial-grade Vitamix blender lends itself well to preparing creative libations or smoothies with fresh local produce.<br /><br />*Please note that Honua Kai is located in a hotel-zoned area meant for tourism and is thus safe from Maui's pending short-term rental ban affecting apartment-zoned areas.*<br /><br /><b>Guest access</b><br />Take pleasure in spending your days at the resort’s three-acre aquatic playground.
