Our family had an amazing stay at this superb property in Makena. Secluded and private yet a short drive to amazing restaurants and shopping. We saw sea turtles every day and snorkeled in the clear water off the back yard. Truly a gem and a perfect family vacation!

Heaven on earth! The location with direct water access from the backyard, just cannot be beat!
My family of five (kids are 21,14,12) has been to a variety of Hawaiian islands together at least a dozen times. We’ve stayed in all sorts of accommodations from high end hotels to condos to tent structures. Makena Makai blew us away And I don’t think we can stay anywhere else now!
Likely the best snorkeling we’ve had on any of the Hawaiian islands - and right in the backyard!! Turtles galore! It was fabulous to rent kayaks and SUPs for the week and launch them from the backyard and paddle to one of the very nearby beaches to the left and right. Oh and the sunsets are fabulous! Big grassy yard for wiffle ball for the boys, too!
Both host and local property managers were helpful, responsive, and communicative, making everything so easy!
Yes, there are fancier, more updated homes nearby, but this well taken care of property and it’s access to the water, with it’s chill home-like vibe and everything you might need provided, was just what we needed, and probably now the only place we will stay in Maui from now on!
Water access does require some good water shoes to get over the rocky beach and into the water, so be sure to have those. Otherwise, Makena Makai has everything you need and is pure perfection - heaven on earth!!
Thank you, Sue and Clark!

I have been to Maui several times and have always enjoyed my stay at the resorts, so this was the 1st time at a home and it did not disappoint! Incredible location in the heart of turtle town and the house was simply stunning in its ambiance and proximity to the best snorkeling around, PERIOD!!! Loved Sue and the commutation.

This property is in good, not great, condition and not fancy. The furnishings are dated and need to be reupholstered. That’s all the bad. The key thing is this property is flat out gorgeous. The diving and snorkeling right off the back patio are so good that dive operations and snorkel tours show up everyday. Makena Beach is a 5” walk down a quiet dead end street and is gorgeous. The area is very safe so we left windows and our bedroom slider open all night, and with sea breezes and lots of ceiling and floor fans we never needed to use A/C. Love that. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking tools, the master bed is comfortable, the landscaping is in good condition and having a grassy area next to the ocean with palm trees for shade, and complete privacy too, was amazing. This is a legacy estate that is one in a million. We loved it here and wish we could just move in forever.

This property is beautiful, and the hosts are amazing. Banana trees. Soft grass. Too many turtles and whales to count, right in the backyard.

If y’all are looking for a shiny new place - this isn’t it. If you want an epic location on the water in Turtle Town - this is the spot. We sat for 2 weeks in the backyard and enjoyed the “private” Bay. Cute old home.

The views are amazing from this home but the interior really needs to be updated, its very old and left the feeling of staying at my grandparents home and even smelled like it. The furniture was very old and the AC unit in the master bedroom wouldn't stay on and then blew a breaker which we reset but it wouldn't hold. Found out from the owner that the AC unit which is portable was located somehow on the wrong side of the room that has a 30amp breaker which would have held if we new about it so that really made it tough, but thankfully the night breeze was cool and it worked.
Also the exterior shows a pool but it was empty and found out it wasn't the owners of the home which I wasn't aware off.
I will say that the property manager was on top of things when we called and the owner even called to apologize about the AC issue which we appreciated. I also spoke with him about the property being old and they are making improvements to this property so I would keep it on your list as again the views were amazing.

A wonderful place to relax and enjoy Maui! The atmosphere and views are so special. The owners provide history of the property and location which provides interest context to appreciate the place. Hope to return in the future.

Love it! All great! This is the second time we’ve stayed here and it’s the perfect place to make memories: great family meals prepared in the kitchen with a view, snorkeling, kayaking, sunset revelries, peaceful evenings when all that is heard are the ocean, crickets, and starlight.
