10/10 would recommend! Best condo at the Mana Kai hands down.The 402 is stunning with front row seats to gorgeous shades of blue ocean waves, palm trees, and pristine beaches for miles to feast your eyes for days! The condo is clean with top notch amenities and unique design. Photos really do no justice to what you truly experience. John and Sara are excellent hosts, which is a huge plus. We had such a fantastic first time in Maui and would definitely return. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home:)

Amazing view, clean & check in was easy. The staff are friendly & the beach access was perfect. The unit is stocked extras - beach towels, beach umbrella, beach chairs, travel Maui books - all which were much appreciated. I would definitely come & stay again & would recommend.Laundry is not in the unit, but easily accessible just out the door. Some noise in the master due to proximity to the elevator.

Very nice condo with a great location right on the beach. We loved South Maui. The condo had everything we needed including snorkeling gear, beach chairs, umbrellas and beach towels. Lots of great places to eat near by. Enjoyed mornings and late evenings on the balcony with that beautiful view and sounds of the ocean. Would 100% stay here again. Already missing it.

It has the best waterfront view and excellent beach. Very good snorkeling right off the beach. It is close to many restaurants. Having two bathrooms also helps a lot for a family of four. We enjoyed our stay.

We had a wonderful stay at Mana Kai. The oceanfront views and waking up to sound of waves was amazing. The pictures are no exaggeration. John & Sara were super responsive and welcoming. Location in Kihei made it easy to travel upcountry to Wailea and to Kapalua. Kitchen had everything we needed and the welcome basket was wonderful. Perfect for our family of 4. The unit itself is fully updated and felt like staying in a beautiful hotel suite. Look forward to coming again.

First the good: the location cannot be any better. Mana Kai is right on Maui’s top beaches. Second, unit actually looks better in life than the pictures show. It was clean and the bedding was clean as were the towels . Now for the bad: 1.) there’s no place to sit there’s a desk and it only has one chair, if you want to eat anything you have to sit on the floor or the bed. 2) no parking- it says dedicated parking space but that’s a lie, once you sign up and pay your email will say that you’re parking on a gravel lot. Which also serves as public parking for the beach. So you’re out of luck on parking if it’s a busy beach day. We had to walk with all of our belongings. 3) there was no internet, it said in the instructions that there’s WiFi but the described WiFi network was not available. Our door code unexpectedly stopped working on the first day at night but I do have to give credit to the rental company we called their after hours service and got an actual human on the phone who was able to reset the code for us. The price is the cheapest you’ll find at Mana Kai but keep in mind this unit faces the back parking lot only. It’s an ok basic place if you’re not wanting a dedicated parking space or internet. You will be right on the beach.

I was disappointed that there was no yoga or restaurant the days we stayed there. Also, the furniture in the living room was not large enough for four people and also the furniture was uncomfortable. The front desk staff seemed annoyed with any questions we had. Lastly, in the future, I would suggest that it be listed that rentals for snorkeling gear and such is an extra charge. Otherwise the view was nice and the unit was clean.

Mana Kai Maui is an excellent resort for families who want to be close to a safe accessible beach and love nature and views. II do miss the restaurant and bar downstairs which was so convenient. For fourty years we have enjoyed this location and the suite was lovely and as promised.

Absolute paradise. An incredible, luxury condo with an unbeatable view. The unit is extremely well kept and well decorated. The "hideaway" TV by the one bed is a cool touch as is the extra large shower in the master bath. The employees of the resort were very nice and helpful. The "lawn" area between the pool and the beach is an awesome place to lay out in the Hawaiian sun on very comfortable chairs and seconds away from the pool or ocean. It was just my wife and I so this was perfect for us. If you're bringing kids, just be aware, you might be on high alert not wanting them to break anything and cause more stress. Simply amazing place and hope to stay here again!

Beautiful property! The unit had everything we needed for the week, was clean, and had amazing views. The location on the island was perfect - close to what we needed quickly, but not in the hustle and bustle of Kihei. Short drives to Haelakala and other destinations around Maui. Beautiful beach and grassy area at the property. We even swam with sea turtles right by the property! We happened to be there during the tsunami warning - luckily we had friends in Maui that took us in during the evacuation - but we never heard from the property manager about what to do. The tsunami ended up not being a threat after all and we were able to return to the unit, but it would have been nice to hear from Coldwell Banker about the precautions in the area.

This home is absolutely gorgeous and the hosts John and Sara are amazing! The minute you walk in you can see the crystal clear, tourquoise ocean and beautiful sandy beach, through the floor to ceiling sliding glass doors. Two of my favorite things were sitting out on the lanai and going to sleep on the very comfortable pillow top mattress. The furnishings are modern and comfortable, and everything was nice and clean. We enjoyed being located close to the nice restaurants of Wailea and all the shopping we wanted in Kihei. We will be coming back again and I would highly recommend this home to all of my friends and family.

Overall, we had a nice stay at the Mana Kai. You can’t beat the location right on Keawakapu beach and don’t even get me started on the sunsets! The pool, chairs to use on the grass and other accommodations around were great.This particular condo does seem to need some attention and small updates are needed. We traveled with my 15 month old granddaughter and wouldn’t say that this condo is kid friendly. Between the big heavy doors, glass tables and carpet that needs some attention it was hard to let her wander. We did find an unused cigarette underneath the main bed in the living room, used ZYN pouches under the bed in the private bedroom as well as empty water bottles. There is a mold like substance on the bathroom door going into the bathroom off the living room. The knife drawer is also way too accessible for small kids. Not ideal for having a 15month old crawling around. It’s unfortunate you pay such a big cleaning fee to feel like unsanitary things could have been taken care of.

The hotel room was easy to find and get into and was in a great location but the room was dirty. The walls had holes that were “patched” and the bathroom was very gross. The shower was old and stained and the shower head was crusted over. Overall was an okay stay.

When we arrived, the unit reeked of gas—an immediate safety concern. The back door was missing a handle, which meant we couldn’t lock it and had no way to secure our belongings. There were stains all over the floor, and the furniture was extremely worn and outdated—easily 20 years old. We asked Vacasa to move us to a different unit, but they refused. They said they would refund one night as a compromise, but never followed through. After this experience, I will never book with Vacasa again.

We had never stayed on this side of the island before, and would return in a heartbeat. Beautiful beach that was incredibly accessible for swimming and snorkeling. We loved having coffee/breakfast on the lanai in the mornings, observing all that was happening on the beach below while we made our plans for the day. The beach out front is gorgeous and we'll miss the view- truly breathtaking! The condo is close to several restaurants, grocery stores, and beaches- we always felt safe at this location. Jude was an incredibly gracious and accommodating host. The unit has everything you could possibly need and more. Jude made us feel so welcomed and comfortable. Would absolutely recommend this unit and hope to be back at some point. Thanks so much, Jude!

Amazing view from this unit and a great beach for walking and snorkeling. Definitely walk the trail to the north of the property toward the boat ramp and park if you want to see sea turtles! The general store on the ground floor is a great amenity with plenty of snacks and stuff for breakfast and lunch. Property is centrally located between Wailea and Kihei giving you tons of dining and shopping options.

We enjoyed being so close to the beach and spend time with our family that traveled there to meet us. The outdoor bbq area was super nice. The beach chairs on the grass was perfect for us. The view was incredible.
The condo was nice, it only had 2 forks which made a family of six to wash a lot of dishes (we bought disposable forks and chopsticks)

10/10 in all areas. My family of six (kids ages 18-25) fit in this space. But we also don’t mind being cozy, and we knew we wouldn’t be spending a lot of time in the unit. When the sofa bed is out, it is tight. But that’s ok because you will be at the beautiful beach which is right outside your doorstep. Location is perfect. View is amazing. If you don’t choose this unit, at least choose this management company. They went above and beyond to meet our needs. Highly recommend!

This condo was incredible, the location and view cannot be beat. The beach was so inviting and expansive enough to where you were not crowded in on each other. The condo had everything we needed, fully stocked and the beds were comfortable. The building is great, with a store onsite that really has anything you may need. Great salads, sliders and other options too in case you just want to eat at the condo but not cook. Most importantly, the view of the beach and the sounds of the waves at night is what dreams are made of, truly. You can leave your slider open all night with the fresh breeze. It is wonderful. We will be back! Couple notes in case interested:- Parking spots are a little tight so recommend renting a smaller vehicle if you can make it work. -The bar/restaurant onsite is still not available which was unfortunate because locals told us it was a great place to dine at, however there are several local places to dine at too. We did Cool Cat Cafe and Monkeypod Kitchen to name a few. -The beach is a public beach and gets busy on the weekends, still plenty of room, but be aware that locals use the beach for fishing, they have their gear on the beach/lines in the water so keep a close eye on little ones. (as you should anyways). -BE RESPECTFUL of the ocean. We had to go chase down garbage from families who kids would just leave their garbage sitting around. Turtles also swim there, watch out for them, keep your distance. -RELAX!
