Mana Kai was very nice. The south facing view was incredible. The pool was amazing and perfectly warm and heated perfectly, and you could swim for hours without getting cold. The beachfront made sunsets easy to access. It's located right on Keawakapu beach and on the north side it has rocks. This is a family friendly hotel stay. The beach out front is a dog beach, so dogs walk up and down it, on and off leash, and watched a few owners allow their dog to piss and poop, and they buried it versus cleaned it up. The beach is open to the public so sunsets invite in a lot of non-Mana Kai guests, and one of the three security guards did a great job of kicking unwanted guests off the property and pool. It was super close to everything in Wailea/Makena to Kihei. We come to Maui annually, and we stayed at 2 places in Wailea/Kihei and this was out favorite. Being near the elevator is loud for pedestrians walking to their room if they are talking, but other than that, it's a very nice location and the view is to die for. Expensive by our standards, but it was worth the price of admission. Oh, no boogie boards or free stuff, rentals only. BRX who manages the property let us check in 90 minutes early with groceries. It was very challenging to get that to happen, but thankful they were eventually gracious to let us do that. Transitioning from one place to another was not easy, and that helped not start the trip off to a negative start. God bless the owners of this condo, we'll be back!

While being right next to the elevator is convenient it can be noisy. That was mostly 6-7 am workers I think. Also the construction is ongoing. Not an issue from the condo but an issue from the pool (jackhammers). The view is unparalleled from this condo. We would stay again once the construction is finished.

Mana Kai is right on the beach and is the best condo building location in Kehei.
The condo is good and has most everything you need. We have stayed in a couple different 2 bedroom units here and all are basically the same, relatively small but comfortable for 2 couples.

We keep coming back time and time again to the Mana Kai. It has EVERYTHING we love and need. It's situated in an ideal location. You ride the elevator down from your room and walk briefly thru the beautiful lobby right onto the beach. It is one of the bet beaches to walk a long distance on Maui. The sand is golden and easy to walk on next to the waves. The pool is great for when it gets windy. The grassy area with beautiful lounge chairs is perfect for enjoying a sunny day and the gorgeous sunsets. The 808 Deli has just about anything you need if you run out of supplies. We always rent a suite and love the view from the balconies. We plan on going back to the Mana Kai whenever we visit. Aloha and Mahaol!

Many of the public areas are under construction which we were fully aware of when we booked. No noise at all and really not an inconvenience. Great location right on the beach and between Wailea and Kihei. General store on property for snacks and rental shop for snorkel equipment and other items. Room was a little tight, however, we had everything needed in the kitchen and a great view down the beach.

Unit was clean and the view incredible. No complaints at all except the smoke alarm went off one morning and wouldn't stop beeping. Had to put it under 3 pillows until the battery must have run out of juice. But that can happen anywhere.

It’s clear the owners/managers care little about cleanliness, maintenance or customer service. We’ve traveled extensively, including to areas of the developing world, but this was the first time we had to clean before unpacking. In Hawaii, it’s customary to remove shoes before entering a home, but doing so in this unit resulted in dirty feet within minutes. Not a good feeling! Manager and agent were unresponsive.

From the moment you step out on the lanai, you know you made the right decision. What a view! We loved our stay here. Great location, excellent beach for swimming, and close to resorts and great restaurants. Highly recommend!

Great location and view! This was a first time stay for us and we were completely satisfied with this condo, set up perfectly for our party of 4. The host Tyler couldn’t have been more responsive in answering any questions we had. This is a must return and highly recommended.

Loved renting here, proximity to awesome beach is outstanding! Being able to rent paddle boards right downstairs was great bonus! Plus chairs and cooler to use in unit is great. Saw tons on turtles swimming around in the rocky area right at the beach. Only slight critique would be a furniture update, but we loved the place and will definitely stay here again! Thank you!!

This property is gorgeous!! The complex was recommended to us by family and this unit was everything we needed. Well stocked kitchen, items for the beach, and the view was outstanding!! It’s really hard to go home but we look forward to coming back to Mana Kai 807 in the future!

This is the second year in a row I have traveled with my father to Mana Kai. He totally loves watching all of the beach activity from the lani. We saw whales and turtles right from the comfort of our balcony view.

We loved our stay in #807 at the Mana Kai! Truly, our entire stay was wonderful. The unit suited our family of 5. Our adult children (2) left after 4 days, leaving our one teenager for the rest of the trip. No TV was turned on - not once! Truly, the snorkeling was the best I've experienced so far - and it was right outside the door! There were many green sea turtles to swim beside daily. We used Maui Grocery Service to stock our fridge for the first few days - great to not worry - ask for Cindy. We met many people at the Mana Kai who said they've been coming there for years and years. We can see why. We'll be back as well. Mahalo!

Mana Kei is a fantastic gem located on the border of Kihei and Wailea. The beach is a wonderful family beach. Our children enjoyed the beautiful water and visits from sea turtles each day. Great snorkeling right off the shoreline. We were lucky enough to be there during whale season and the view of the whales from the lanai of the condo is incredible. This condo is located on the top floor so your view is not blocked by the palm trees lining the property. You have a full view of the water and plenty of whales to watch and enjoy. The unit is well-stocked with everything you could need, even beach chairs and an umbrella. We will certainly come back as soon as we can. Thank you for a terrific vacation!

Everything about this property is absolutely perfect! The rooms are beautifully decorated with stylish comfortable furniture. The AC and fans keep the temperature just right or you can open the doors to the balcony with the screen and listen to the ocean. Everything you could possibly need for a beautiful Hawaiian vacation is provided at the Mana Kai - stunning architecture in the lobby, 5-star restaurant, store, swimming pool with perfect temperature, private lawn with plenty of lawn chairs, snorkeling right in front of the resort and a gorgeous beach for walking. We hope to come back again and again.

It was our second time back at the Mana Kai, and we can't say enough great things about it. Every detail was taken care of in the Condo. Completely turn key. There was everything we needed including a coffee bean grinder and miscellaneous condiments such as ketchup, mustard, salt, pepper, etc.
Perhaps our only suggestion for improvement would be to have a housekeeping option where they could come maybe once every 2-3 days to do a general cleaning and refresh the towels. Not a big deal at all, but would be a nice option.
We are already looking forward to our next visit! Thanks again!

This is a nice unit that has been renovated. The view is the main event. The balcony is protected from the wind and sun. This is very appreciated when enjoying the view. The gym was an asset to this property. The location is nice for many things, along with the beach and snorkeling right in front on the condo. The way these units are set up doesn’t lend itself to a lot of privacy for the people in the room adjoining the living room and with the view. You can see it in the picture. I would stay there again, but beware all the rental units aren’t as nice as this one. We looked at another one while there.
