Makanui is a condo development in the Poipu Kai Resort that consists of 7 buildings. The development is split into two sections: the main section contains buildings 3-7 which are large 2 story town-home like buildings located on a small hilltop, some with nice mountain and distant ocean views. Buildings 1 and 2 are located about 200 yards away, and building 1 is actually a single level home that you can rent. The pool is located beside buildings 3-7, and guests have access to the Poipu Kai resort tennis facilities.
Makanui units are large, ranging in size from 1000 - 1700 sq ft. From the main buildings, it takes about eight minutes to walk to Brennecke beach and nine minutes to walk to Shipwreck beach. Buildings 1 and 2 are five minutes closer walking distance to Shipwreck, and about 13 minutes from Brennecke.
