Mana Kai was perfect for a family vacation. The unit works great for a family of 4 with 2 teenagers. The location and beach could not be beat. We were able to enjoy the ocean and waves, have incredible snorkeling (including swimming with sea turtles) and sea kayak out to see the humpback whales, all from the Mana Kai beach. John and Sara were great and would absolutely stay here again; the location and condo exceeded all expectations!

The most updated, beautifully decorated condo we've stayed in at the Mana Kai. Everything was brand new and worked perfectly. The beds were super comfortable. The condo was well stocked with everything you need to cook and some excellent coffee. In addition, the welcome basket had assorted items, including a wine bottle. The closet area had lots of hooks to hang things, in addition to ample closet space. Highly recommend for adults.

This was our first trip to Maui and I feel so blessed to have found this beautiful condo with stunning views for my family! We had an amazing time at this property. The condo is beautiful with high end finishes and the owner’s thought of everything you would need to have a comfortable stay for your vacation. The views were absolutely stunning and the sounds of the ocean at night was so calming. The owners, property manager and staff were all so helpful and kind. My family can’t wait to come back to this property. Thank you, John and Sara for sharing your beautiful home for others to enjoy!

We stayed at this condo for a week and had an amazing vacation! The condo has incredible views of the ocean, palm trees and beach. You can see the famous Maui sunset from inside the condo and on the lanai. The interior of the condo is beautiful and has several high-end finishes and cool Maui-themed decor. The beach is only steps away from the condo. The ocean reef right next to the building has some of the best snorkeling on the island. We also enjoyed spending time in the pool, which has a great view of the beach and ocean. The owners were exceptionally helpful with suggestions for us on what to do while in Maui. We loved our stay and plan on returning.

Utter perfection, every time. Repeat visitors, just back 3 days ago and already plotting my return. I would improve upon nothing. No regrets, it's wonderful.

This condo in the Mana Kai Resort in Kihei, Maui is simply amazing.
First, the location is great. Far enough away from the elevators so no foot traffic, quiet, and with unobstructed ocean views. You can see both the sunrise and the sunset over the ocean from this condo.
The kitchen is well stocked with everything you could need to make a meal. The fridge is huge. I ended up eating breakfast and lunch in the condo and going out for dinner. There was some local Maui coffee and other goodies to get me started.
The condo is beautifully decorated in coastal and island decor with lovely, local artwork. The bed was super comfy with more than enough pillows. Everything has been totally updated. The bathroom is gorgeous and there is tons of storage space.
My favorite part was the balcony. Sitting outside at all hours watching and listening to the ocean was good for the soul.
The building has a well-equipped workout room, a little free library in the basement, washers and dryers on every floor, security at night, an assigned parking space, a pool, and a rental facility for snorkeling gear and beach chairs.
You can also use the building lounge chairs on the lawn area. There is a reservation guide on the first level who can book tours for you as well.
The owner was very helpful in terms of recommendations and suggestions on restaurants.
Fabulous stay - highly recommend - can't wait to go back!

John and Sarah have the most beautiful home on the beach with amazing views and comfort. The condo is even more gorgeous than the pictures featured. Morning beach walks, golf right around the corner, whale watching from lanai along with gorgeous sunsets to finish the day.

Joan & Sara’s place is a fantastic choice for our little vacation of family three (with a toddler)! John and Sara have been so accommodating with early check in and most importantly the complimentary crib for our little boy! Everything they have done simply made our stay so essy and comfortable, let alone the considerably designed and stocked rooms and the breathtaking views right from the balcony! With the location so close to beach, pool and Kihei restaurants, we had fun every single day! We highly recommend John and Sara’s wonderful place!

We have checked out several condos at the Mana Kai for the past 20+ years, and this is our favorite…we have stayed there four times now!
Spectacular view - closest to the ocean; high-end, gorgeous furnishings; and fully stocked kitchen! It really is a great value for the price, considering hotel costs in Kihei/Wailea. The owners are also great to work with - super responsive to any questions/issues we had.
The property is just steps away from one of the best beaches in Maui, and the pool and BBQ area on property is well-maintained and used often by our family.
Can’t wait to return next year!🏝️
Mahalo!

Our family of 4 loved our stay in Maui in this unit. Plenty of room for us to have our own space & our teenage daughters to have theirs. We were delighted to have the beach, snorkeling & that lovely lawn space right downstairs. Beautiful turtles seemed to enjoy swimming near the rock with the other ocean lovers & posed great for photos. Food nearby was delicious—never went hungry or thirsty. Everyone we came across gave off great aloha vibes.
