Location is good, but road noise in the main living area is unbearable. The condo is good overall if you can tolerate how loud it is. Beds are great but shower in main bath is not because the settings blast water. The location is perfect, right on the beach!

Clean cool breezy condo located at the end of the 4th floor giving you lots of privacy & unobstructed gorgeous views of a beautiful orange dreamsicle sunsets & glistening ocean of an authentic Hawaiian fishpond! The landscape around the condo is well taken care of, the pool is clean & rarely busy, the on property Indian cuisine restaurant serves delicious meals & has a impressive bar with bay windows giving you panoramic views of the west Maui Mountains to the right & Molokini & Kahoolawe islands to the left. Parking was abundant. Purchasing groceries & picking up rx from CVS was a 5 min drive. Kihei was a fun town & super close to the airport. Next time we’re in town, I look forward to booking this condo. It has everything you need. We appreciated the starter pack of toiletries! Also, being able to travel light because we could wash clothes was also a bonus! Overall, we had a lovely staycay & can’t wait to return!

Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Menehune Shores! It served our purpose well. The beach view balcony was great, as well as property access to the beach. It was pretty clean (tile floors are hard to keep spic & span), but it seemed more dated in person than the listing pictures show. Location was convenient. The mattresses were in great condition and comfortable. We had a little issue with the master bathtub being clogged and filling up with water, but it wasn't anything a little Drano couldn't fix. We would stay here again! Thanks for hosting us!

The condo was spacious and the location was perfect. Of course the decor was outdated but that is typical of Maui. Both beds were comfortable and we learned the sofa bed is suitable only for kids. It wasn’t very comfortable for adults. My only gripe was the restaurant 4 floors downstairs. The smell was strong, though, fortunately it doesn’t reach the apartment. Would recommend a stay here!

We love the location of this condo - it is central to everything that we want to do. There is a beautiful beach right on site, and several in the near by area. The restaurant in the complex is very good and affordably priced. The condo is clean and comfortable, with our only complaint being the amount of road noise generated at certain times of day. The kitchen is very well stocked, and has everything you might need to cook home dinners if you don’t want to go out to eat. The beds are very firm, which may be an issue for some guests, but overall, we were delighted with the location and amenities in this unit.

Overall it was a good stay with a few concerns. The first one is a cleanness of the bath towels and some kitchen utensils, we had to clean those before using.
Missing BBQ tongs.
Windows are not sound proof, this apartment is the closest to the road so it was quite noisy in the mornings and late evenings.
The second bedroom had squeaky mattresses.
On the positive side the apartment overall is in good shape, everything is working, partial ocean view is an awesome addition to the morning coffee. There were some beach chairs in decent condition as well as a portable fridge that was helpful. We really appreciate that the appointment was ready for checking in earlier than expected.
The overall service at menehune shores is very good, the staff cleaned the pool, grilling areas and parking lot quite often.

This resort was AMAZING. Perfect location in Kihei close to everything you could need. Not to mention the amazing ancient fishing pond right outside on the beach. We saw multiple turtles eating greens off the cement wall and just swimming underfoot! I was worried about being hot in July but the AC was good and the ocean breeze through the unit was good too. I will comment that the traffic noise coming through the front of the unit is loud but did not detract from our enjoyment of the stay. Resort Amenities! Super warm pool, beachside BBQs and a rooftop oasis complete with more BBQs and stunning views. The BBQ propane ran out on the roof one night of our stay but that is not the unit’s fault. When we stayed, the unit had 2 small coolers, 4 lawn chairs and snorkel gear for 5. Unfortunately the ocean swallowed 3 of the masks we borrowed so I bought new sets and left them behind. Fun fact, I saw a TikTok that said tourists should visit the thrift stores for snorkel and beach gear… I wish I thought of that! The unit has in suite washer and dryer and a full kitchen. Decor was simple, inviting, and relaxing. Plenty of room for our party of 6 with my husband and I in the Oceanside queen room, my friend and her two boys in the street side double twin/king room, and my son in the livingroom on the sofa bed. Do not pack your own towels, there were plenty of beach towels to use. The bathrooms were also stocked with towels for 6 so we had everything we needed.

This was a great family stay. 2 bedrooms, laundry, kitchen, all working great. The only 2 minor items would be if you notice road noise (we do not, so not an issue) and if you are a tech person whom will want to log in to your apps, the TV would not accept an update, but I just used my Roku with no problems. Some minor issues (ice maker didn't work, we used ice trays. The door to the balcony from the primary bedroom did not work, we didn't need it). A/C in all rooms worked great!!!!! We will return

Property was as listed. Very helpful and friendly office and landscaping staff. Very attentive property management team! Quick to answer any questions and help out anyway needed.
Condo very nice and clean. Kitchen has just about everything you need. Could use some more storage containers.
The couch is very comfy!
Nicely decorated. Very functional.
They supply Beach chairs, coolers and other beach items.
Nice lanai to sit on and watch sunset or eat meals. Nice and breezy.
Rooms nice. Both with their own closely detached bathrooms. The One with Queen bed has nice views of ocean. The other bedroom with the two twins has no views and next to main Kihei Rd with some street noise but with fans on it drowns it out. Showers great. Good water pressure. Good height even for my 6’3” husband. Nice and lots of towels. Nice beach towels too.
Extra perk is rooftop views! For watching sunrise or sunset.
Ocean for swimming is walled off with rock wall so very safe and shallow. Even had a group of turtles nesting there!
The grass is like a golf course! We did our exercises outside on the lawn out back by the ocean under the swaying coconut trees! So nice.
Location is in north kihei so not too busy, but very central to everything and other parts of Maui.
Overall a great stay for us as we came mainly to volunteer and to help support the Maui community! Keep Maui Strong!

We loved the location of Menehune Shores! It's right on the beach and conveniently located to so many places we needed to go (the Aquarium, Walmart, the airport, etc.) We loved watching the sunsets from the rooftop, seeing turtles in the sanctuary every morning, and grilling by the pool. The unit we stayed in was clean and comfortable, and we enjoyed having a kitchen where we could cook many of our meals. We'd definitely stay here again.

I traveled with my college student daughter, and my 86 year old parents for 5 days in Maui. The condo was perfect for our trip. It was very clean, very comfortable, and well equipped. As it is an end unit, it allowed for increased ventilation in the 2 bathrooms which is nice after showers with the humidity. The main areas are tile, and bedrooms carpeted. Each bedroom and the main area have air conditioner units -which we mostly did not use. We never turned on the main room ac as the ceiling fans and cross breeze were wonderful. We did use ac in one bedroom (works great) - both for comfort and to use as white noise due to street traffic below. Everything was in excellent shape. We had a question arise a few hours before our arrival and received prompt responses and assistance. My father requires a walker, and although a bit of a trek for him from the parking lot (elevator works great) to the end unit, it was smooth and accessible. The porch was lovely. Great location - pool and bay easily accessible just below condo. Many public beaches all around. Wonderful fruit stand just up the road, swap meet equal distance the other way. Can’t say enough good things.

We loved the apartment itself. Everything was clean and stylish. Had everything we could want. The a/c was more than adequate and the balcony with a view was great. The garbage disposal was messed up by the prior people but they came right out very quickly to fix it.
My only disappointment was the beach and area. The sea in the little lagoon was murky and choppy the whole time. It didn't look like the pictures at all .... but that could be the time of year we came? Late July. It was also very windy, we were never able to enjoy the beach at the condo. We just drove to other areas so it was fine.
One thing i enjoyed about kihei is the proximity to restaurants and the central location makes it easy to explore the island. Also 4th friday kihei is great!

This was a great vacation condo with everything we needed for our stay! The location with the protected swimming area where you could see sea turtles, right outside the building, was really amazing. And the restaurant on the ground floor was absolutely delicious. The unit came stocked with beach towels, chairs and snorkel gear which was very helpful. A/C worked great too. There was a bit of road noise, as it is a corner unit, but this was not a problem for us. Would definitely recommend!

This rental has a great location right on the water with view. Aside from my first day finding out there are ghost ants that come in the summer we had a great experience. (We bought ant spray and cleaned /killed them all and kept everything in ziplock bags after that. They didn’t return and property management notified after our stay to fix problem. This is our first time traveling with a baby under the age of one and there was enough space for us to bring along all of the necessities including the portable crib (which we discovered the rental has in the closet, we were told there wasn’t one at time of rental so we paid to bring one. We never actually checked in because we were always calling before or after the manager was on site but that was not a problem we just had to leave our information on our dashboard. The location is central to so many places. In the mornings you can hear the cars on the main street passing but it was not a bother at all. The grounds are very clean and there is staff present at all times. Parking was probably the only difficulty Not because there wasn’t enough The spaces are just very narrow and 1 inch too far to the left from anyone what a mess up the whole row but we managed. The AC in each room worked great! We would stay here again.

This condo is located right on the beach. Has wonderful and super easy access to a beautiful beach that has a retention wall that helps me feel safer letting my kids play in the ocean. The water is not super deep all the way to the barrier so I felt really safe. The ocean access is so fantastic, we never even touched the pool. There's also an area at the barrier where green sea turtles come and relax. You can sit in the water and watch them from about 20 feet. It is however on the world's loudest street. There's traffic ALL night long and it's not just cars. It's ambulances, loud motorcycles, people blasting their music, all night long. Another drawback is, there's no air conditioning. So if it's hot or humid, you have to sleep with the windows open, making the loud street very problematic. It's difficult to sleep. Even with ear plugs. Also, our oven didn't work at all while we were there. The maintenance man was going to fix it, but wasn't able to. This was difficult because we planned our trip around cooking at home to save money. We made due with the microwave and the community grills though. Overall, great stay. Super close to where we wanted to be, beautiful view. Just very very loud.

If four adults spending eight days in Hawaii sharing a condo doesn't sound like a vacation, know that roomy Menehune Shores #401 made the experience wonderful four us! The location was perfect for accessing the entire island (if your auto rental allows) - the Road to Hana, Haleakala, Lahaina, Wailea-Makena. The two bedroom-two bathroom condo was very clean, the kitchen fully stocked with appliances, dishes, and utensils to include a toaster oven. Body boards and four beach chairs along with ample beach towels were used often. Washer/dryer unit saw daily use. The evening and overnight breezes made the absence of A/C mostly acceptable (our stay saw unusually high temperatures in October). Keeping windows and the lanai door open allows one to hear both the soothing sound of waves breaking on the beach as well as the occasional (but tolerable) louder traffic noises from the nearby S. Kihei road. All in all, were we to return to Maui, we would stay here without hesitation.

We went to the week - unit has a nice view - and location is good. Property management was very helpful. We got locked out of unit twice due to issues with screen door and new door mechanism blocking screen door from opening. Much of the unit is functional but gear is old. Chairs on patio Dont work with high table. No air
Conditioning which I thought would be fine - but with wind you have to be able to close up the unit. Many units have air conditioning. Overall I wouldn’t rent this unit again - will look for a more updated unit.

It was a great location but the owner really needs to do some updates on the unit and things need to be fixed.We did not get the rooms that I requested I asked for 2 king size beds and I got 1 queen and 2 doubles. when you spend that kind of money you expect to get what you pay for! The owner really needs to put some of that money back into the unit!The grounds were very well taken care of.

We absolutely loved unit 401! I was nervous about not having AC going into the trip as the forecast was 83° F during the day and 70’s ° F at night, but the breeze from the ocean made the condo extremely comfortable day and night! We left the doors and windows open and ceiling fans on all night that made for extremely comfortable living! So no need to worry about there not being AC.
*Unit had everything we needed including boogie boards and snorkeling gear. Even a small cooler to take to the beach or pool area that kept our waters cold for hours!
*My only complaint would be the living room tv remotes. They kept getting stuck on the guide channel and not allowing us to click on anything. making it pretty frustrating to find a movie or show to keep my kiddos entertained after dinner/ before bed. After some Google research we managed, but would have been even that much more frustrating to one who is not so savvy. I would recommend the owner get with the cable company and get a new cable remote that works. Seems this remote is ancient. There was a laminated sign indicating the issue on the coffee table, so it’s a known issue with the owner I’m assuming other guests have had issues with as well. Seems small, but when you have kids that have been in the sun all day doing all sorts of activities who are ready to vedge out and cuddle up to watch a movie and can’t, it’s pretty frustrating. Perhaps the owner could have a way for guests to log in to their own streaming accounts? That would be a game changer for parents and families.
The pool was great, the beach was just steps away with Green turtle sightings daily! And the Indian restaurant downstairs on the property had fabulous food and drinks! Would totally recommend having lunch, dinner or drinks at. You’re just an elevator away from the unit. We used one of the grills on the rooftop for dinner one night we found fantastic! And made for a beautiful, exquisite spot to watch the sunset. There was a quite a bit of street noise, but that did not bother us as some had indicated in their review. Sure there’s noise, but my fam is from the city so it didn’t bother any of us. We will for sure be back!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THIS CONDO!!!

My family and I enjoyed staying here and would recommend it to anyone. However, there is one very important thing you must know before booking.
The toilets are insanely small. Not joking. They're the smallest toilets I've ever seen. It's almost as if the place was built for Oompa Loompas.
I had to levitate off the toilet a couple of inches to have room to wipe and I'm just an average-sized man (6ft, 230lbs). So at least once per day, I regretted not knowing about the freakishly small toilets before booking.
Again, not joking. If you're a little larger, this may not be the right condo for you. If that's not a concern, you'll love it here.
Pros:
- We had a minor issue with the front door and the support team was very responsive. They came immediately and helped us sort it out. That was greatly appreciated.
- The view from the balcony.. fantastic.
- The beach isn't private, but it sure felt that way. No crowds, great location.
- We cooked a couple of nights and the kitchen had everything we needed.
- My teenage kids (both gamers) gave the WiFi two thumbs up.
Cons:
- The tiny toilets
- The master bedroom furniture is about 50 years old, so it felt a little like we were vacationing in the 1970s. However, despite the age, everything functions as it should
- There's no air conditioning. We were there in Oct so it wasn't much of an issue, we just slept with all the doors/windows open, but in the summer... risky.

Property is clean and located centrally with a nice restaurant below. One drawback, there is no Air conditioner.

The rental process was short and easy. The condo is great. This was great for a family stay. The beach is protected by a rock barrier so the kids swimming was no worry.

The rental was clean, up to date, and while on the end you could still see the ocean and hear it at night. The fishpond was a treat to snorkel in--fish and lots of turtles. A bit noisy however we did not mind.

Oceanfront location in Kihei. Our unit near the road was very noisy. Although the units are non-smoking someone near our unit smoked incessantly so we were not able to use the balcony. The key that was supposed to allow us to use the rooftop area was the wrong key. I called rentalsmaui but did not receive a substitute so the people after us will still have the wrong key

It was clean and had plenty of space for a family of 5. It is oceanview but is the unit furthest away from the ocean and right by a noisy road. We could only hear cars. Also, we got unpleasant smells every once in awhile.

Great location with beautiful beaches steps away! We loved seeing the sea turtles every morning! The body boards on the deck were greatly appreciated and were used daily. Would absolutely rent this unit again!

This was a budget friendly condo with a partial ocean view. Here are a few suggestions for improvements which could increase the earning price of this suite: All linens need to be replaced as they were clean but very well used. This includes the kitchen where the dish cloths and towels were clean but smelly when wet, no oven mitts, etc; The curtains in the front BR could be replaced with blackout curtains or shutters to dim the early morning sun; Both bathrooms require slipproof bath mats for safety.
We specifically contracted a non smoking suite and building and were very disappointed to find a smoker in close proximity to our suite who didn’t honour or respect this rule. It took four complaints to the building management before this was finally addressed! We realize the the close proximity to the ocean environment is harsh on hardware but we found every window latch was broken and the lock on the main door to the lanai also broke. The kitchen appliances were old with some features non functioning and these too need updating. It would be advantageous to add a small safe such as those found in most hotel rooms today.
The proximity to the ocean is superb but a car is a must as nothing is within an easy walk. Lots of parking on site.
A pleasant suite but in need of repairs and updates.

We loved our stay at Menehune Shores #401. We found the condo to be clean and well stocked for a great trip. The pictures listed in the listings were accurate. The larger bed was comfortable.There were appliances like a rice cooker, crock pot, coffee grinder, toaster oven and toaster, blender, etc. There were beach towels, pool noodles, boogie boards, beach chairs, and snorkel gear.

We had a wonderful stay here! Clean accommodations; grounds beautiful; friendly staff; rooftop Easter potluck with wonderful “regular visitors/residents”...and blowing of the conch every evening!
Wonderful shallow pond for children to enjoy the water, with the added feature of fish, and sun bathing turtles!
My reviews are very positive, but, I do have some recommendations for the owner of 401:
Drapes ripped in bedroom...and need to be updated.
Fresh paint! 😊
Towels that are not frayed.
A few new sand chairs.
Potholders?
Coffee pot died...property management was on it in a timely manner!!!
That said, We would definitely come back!

My family and I booked a quick four day vacation to Hawaii back in January for my April 2018 birthday celebration. This condo accommodation was perfect for our family of five. My husband, my mom, our two young adult daughters and myself. The location was easy to get to from the Airport. Just a quick 30 minute drive. With plenty of shops to stop for groceries on the way into town. Checking in was quick and easy. There’s plenty of parking spaces available even when coming to the condo from a late night excursion. We loved that it’s right on the beach with an amazing view from the 4th floor balcony. Many people on here were complaining about the traffic noice but that didn’t bother any of us one bit. We even kept the windows open at night for ventilation. The weather was pretty muggy and hot. But keeping the front door as well as the sliding glass doors open with the fans going helped keep the place plenty enough ventilated. We were very comfortable with all the accommodations. There were plenty of dishes and cooking utensils pots and pans etc. We really didn’t lack anything while were there. Again I have to mention, the location was perfect for heading south or north or which ever direction you need to head to as it’s centrally located to just about anywhere you need to be. There was a small issue with a cracked toilet seat but nothing major that couldn’t wait till the rental office was open again on Monday morning. Which was quickly and efficiently taken care of. I would highly recommend this condo to our friends.

The accommodations were ok. The pictures provided on home away must have been from when the condo was first furnished. Needs an overall! Does not look as good as the pictures. Would recommend this, but not at the price we paid for it. We were way over charged for what we got.

Everything was great with the condo. We loved everything about it, except for the mattress's in both bedrooms need to be replaced. The layout of the condo is wonderful an it is nicely updated. They did everything right but the bedding which is key to getting a good nights sleep.

My family and I stayed at Menehue Shores #401 for vacation. The condo was lovely. It was equipped with everything that we needed. The views from the condo and on top of the building were fabulous! We could see turtles swimming in the fishpond from the top of the building. The staff at Rentals Maui made check-in easy and efficient. We landed on Maui tired and ready to relax, and we traveled directly to our clean, beautiful vacation condo at Menehue Shores in Kihei, Maui. This experience was unforgettable for my family!

Great condo. Street noise my be a factor for some especially since you need to open most of the windows to keep the unit cool. Our family of 5 were able to cook, sleep, and relax comfortably. We saw lots of turtles in the old fishing pond out front!!
