The name Pukalani means “Hole in the Heaven”. Cooler climate, convenience and reasonably affordable homes are why many Mauians call Pukalani home. As Maui became a popular destination for island living, Pukalani grew into an outlaying suburb starting in the late 1970’s. Nearby is the famous Pukalani Superette “Puk-Sup”, Pukalani Terrace Shopping Center, the Mayor Hannibal Tavares Upcountry Community Center and public pool facility and a beautiful 18-hole golf course. Kamehameha Schools, Carden Academy and several public schools are just minutes away.
Located at an elevation ranging from 1,200 to 2,500 feet above sea level, Pukalani is a bit drier than both Makawao and Haiku with rainfall averaging 40” a year. A drive to Kahului Airport will take approximately 20 minutes. Upcountry Pukalani homes may vary from modest structures to golf course estates.
