This is probably Maui's most hidden and unknown park due to its location.
Located on 4.7 acres, this neighborhood-developed parcel is nestled deep within the Pomaikai subdivision in Kahului, surrounded by tract homes and bordered by two cul-de-sacs (Pono & Huali Ways). I'm pretty sure it was an "open-space" agreement in accordance with the area's master plan to create some greenery.
The L-shaped park is as no-frills as they come, with simply maintained grass and a few shade trees; nothing else. It's open 24/7 as there are no barriers to close up the place. Besides the eye-sore landscaping of the surrounding homes, you're also treated to views of Maui's two mountain ranges. Parking is on-street on both sides of the park.
Personally, I wouldn't want to live in the homes abutting the park because who knows what goes on especially at night. But on the positive, it's one less neighbor to deal with!
