This property was clean, modern kitchecn appliances, all working equipment including AC in both rooms, TV,free wifi.
I felt property is slighlty smaller than it appear in photos (but i guess its expected). Very nice view of ocean, sunrise and sunset.

We have stayed at the Mauna Kai numerous times and this was a 1st for this unit. Location is great!! Comfortably furnished and a very comfy bed. One thing the kitchen could use is a Brita water filter. The tap water has a slight off taste to it and a filter would have made it pleasant. Our grandchildren and family were in another unit and they had a brita filter and said their drinking water was good!
Overall it was a lovely stay and the sunsets and beaches are a A+! Looking forward to out next stay.

Mana Kai Maui is a beautiful property. Room 805 has a beautiful view, had nice furniture on the lanai, and also had nice furniture on the inside of the unit. The only downside is the unit has 2 mini-split HVAC units in the bedrooms, so the bathrooms stay much warmer than the rest of the condo. I would definitely stay here again.

Awesome location on the top floor facing the beach. Everything was clean. Local real estate listings suggest this is a $3 million unit. The Andaz hotel and other expensive resorts were nearby. Be sure to keep the screen doors closed even if you don't see bugs. Strange that there was a coffee maker, but no coffee in the unit.

We have stayed at the Mana Kai multiple times in various units. We love the location! The view is amazing. 808 deli is on the main floor, they offer delish salads, paninis, wraps as well as grocery items. This unit was clean and maintained. It had plenty of kitchen supplies. We would stay there again.

Nice location.Nice beach and swimming pool. We contacted management about needing 2 extra sets of towels. Only had 6 sets for a 2 week stay for 2 couples. Was told there were 8 sets and to look in draws. We had looked before contacting them. Told them there were only six sets. Never heard back from them and never received additional sets.

Beautiful view, location as promised! But then...Arrived to our overly warm unit to discover that the only A/C was a window unit in the back bedroom! Ceiling fans were only effective in moving the warm air around, and since day temps were 86-90, having the patio doors open were only helpful at night. When phoning guest relations, and also revisiting online reviews of this unit, we learned that this was a known issue, but had not noticed that detail prior to reserving. Never has this been an issue in any of the other Mana Kai units we’ve stayed in. The unit was otherwise clean, but the only updates were new bedding, newer sofa, and nice TV’s. The rest of the unit was very tired, deck furniture very old with bird droppings. The $250 cleaning fee was only for cleaning upon our departure of 11 days. Our prior stays at Mana Kai were much better, and we will be back. But we won’t recommend this unit, and will be far more attentive to photos and reviews (which we thought we’d done) when returning.

The property was great and the beach was away from busy touristy hotels. Perfect location and walking from local shops and food. Could use some maintenance on the AC unit as it was not blowing cold air.

The pictures and description are very accurate. The view and location are actually more incredible than the pictures show. You can't do much better on Maui for location.That said, when considering value, Mana Kai is an older property and is undergoing a lot of renovations. It's on its way to returning to its original glory, but guests should keep in mind when figuring value that it's not perfect. There was a lot of construction going on while we visited. The store, restaurant, and fitness gym were all closed, the basement is under renovation (fitness gym and yoga room), many condo units are being renovated and can be loud near them, and the water was shut off for an entire night. The unit itself could also use some updating, but it has everything you need and is very clean. The write-up and pictures are accurate and you'll spend most of your time looking out on that view.The noted inconveniences didn't affect us, so no complaints, but might be considerations for others. The positives of Mana Kai far outweigh any negatives. The on-site staff was friendly and great; the lobby, pool and other facilities are beautiful, excellent options for renting beach toys from the on-site rental company (boards/kayaks/snorkels/etc). Highly recommend and hope to return soon.

The view and lanai make this the dream condo for your next visit to Maui. We comfortably fit 4 adults and didn’t feel like we were on top of each other. Amazing location. Unit comes with multiple beach chairs which is a huge plus. Would highly recommend.

Great stay.
Best beach view from 8th floor room.
Property under construction now
only one elevator working.
Restaurant is being redone so not operational and the mini store also closed for renovations.
Our AC unit didn't work well but only 2 days were hot. Great breezes cool you off.

The location and view from this place are amazing. The building is very nice, and the staff is kind and helpful. I give the staff, beach, and ocean view a 5 star review! However, there were a few surprises that were disappointing. First, the AC unit does not work AT ALL. We thought this issue would be fixed by our trip because the rental company said a new one was being installed in response to previous bad reviews. We have a digital room thermometer, and the AC, which is in a small bedroom that should cool easily, never dropped the temperature below 80 degrees by the time we went to bed (even after running it 24 hours multiple times to see if it would work). Also, the instructions for the rental say that you are not allowed to set the AC below 70 degrees to avoid breaking the unit. It's a moot point because it doesn't work at all anyway. Second, the supplies are very stingy in this unit. Upon arrival, we found 6 rolls of toilet paper for 4 adults for 4 weeks. They did end us giving us a bit more 2 days after telling us we had to buy our own (so we had already gone out and purchased it), but be prepared to purchase all the basic supplies that you would expect to be provided for your stay: toilet paper, dishwasher pods, laundry detergent, paper towels, soap, toiletries, etc. They provide what they call a "starter kit," and then you have to purchase your own. I have never before stayed at a place that is so stingy with supplies, which is surprising because this is the most expensive rental I've booked by far. They provide 1 beach towel and chair per person but no other beach equipment like an umbrella, cooler, etc. Again, we had a great stay because we still loved the location and people, but we heard from a number of people who live in the building that this apartment is pretty out of date compared to the other units. I'd say to book a different room if you want to stay in this building.

This condo is a slice of paradise. The views from the unit are spectacular and peaceful. We enjoyed watching whales from our lanai and listening to the waves day and night. The unit was very comfortable and provided all that we wanted, with one exception. There was no air conditioning. This was rather disappointing. The listing information on the unit indicated that there was AC. There was a window unit in the guest bedroom that did not work. There was no AC at all in the living areas or primary bedroom area. There are ceiling fans in each living space which made the unit sufficiently comfortable. Fortunately during our stay the outside temperatures were moderate.

Unit 805 is very comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked. Beautiful view! The only problem was the rental company not calling back for 2 days after leaving a message that we had to use most of the towels to clean up the floor from the storm. After they knew about the towel shortage they were very quick in replacing them. I would recommend this unit and would stay here again.
