Our family had such a great time staying in this unit located at the Mana Kai. Definitely a hidden gem situated on one of the best beaches in Maui! I highly recommend this unit!

The condo was clean and nicely decorated. Most of the frying pans were heavily scratched, and it made it hard to clean up after cooking. Otherwise, the Condo had most of what you would want in the kitchen.The curtain in the guest bedroom near the walkway was transparent enough that you didn’t have good privacy. We had to always keep the light off when changing clothes at night.Communication with the property manager, Coldwell Banker was often difficult. They said they were very busy. On the day prior to discharge we requested a one hour late check out and never heard back. We tried to rent the condo again for next year and it took them four or five days to respond. Due to lack of response, we ended up renting a different condo.Overall, we really enjoyed the condo and would return.

I am reluctant to leave this review because our stay was just too magical and I want it all for my family. Joking aside the stay was incredible. Exactly as expected. Literally just walk 20 steps out to the beach. Incredible view. Sunsets. Whales. What more can you ask for. Loved it.

Excellent condo on the best beach in Maui. We’ve stayed here several times and it never disappoints!

The condo is on the beach, and the view is spectacular. There is a pool and a general store on the premises. So you can spend your entire day there. If laying on sand isn't your thing, there is a lawn and lawn chairs. The condo provided beach chairs and and umbrella. We will definitely be back!

Loved the lanai. Found the condo needing a lot of repair. My family and I have been staying at the Mana Kai since the 70s. This is the first condo requiring a lot of work.

Mana Kai was perfect for a family vacation. The unit works great for a family of 4 with 2 teenagers. The location and beach could not be beat. We were able to enjoy the ocean and waves, have incredible snorkeling (including swimming with sea turtles) and sea kayak out to see the humpback whales, all from the Mana Kai beach. John and Sara were great and would absolutely stay here again; the location and condo exceeded all expectations!

Our stay was great. There was some maintenance items but the owner was helpful in coordinating things.

This place was amazing because of its location!!!! You cant beat it. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because of the inaccuracy of the listing. One of the main reasons we chose this place was because it had a restaurant associated with it. However there has not been a restaurant there for 2 years. Its been under construction for some time. We were pretty frustrated by this when we got there...but we got over it. They do need to update their listing. The water there is perfect for swimming and snorkeling every day. There are many young families everywhere. The condo itself has absolutely everything you need to cook with! I find this is rare with condos like these. The top floor is nice because you have no one above you running around! The view is AMAZING! There is a shared washer dryer that takes credit cards on each floor; we found there was no issue with being overcrowded. We REALLY appreciated that there were some beach chairs and snorkel stuff! That made every day awesome by the beach. No fighting for space! As long as you go prepared to cook for yourself or go out you will love this place. Get some Poke at Foodland and your week will be set! You're within 5 minutes of all sorts of restaurants in either direction which is great. Renting snorkels and paddles boards was super easy. Scott was extremely helpful with our check in process as we were a bit stranded and exhausted from our trip. We really appreciated his help. Would absolutely go back!

This was our second time at this location but the first in this unit. The location is fantastic. Right above the beach looking south towards Wailea. There are turtles and fish in snorkeling range just off the beach. Overall it was a great place to visit.

We knew the area and were excited to find this spot for our family vacation, but we were NOT anticipating the joy of the view. Since it was on the 4th floor and faced the ocean, with our patio doors open (very large doors by the way - pretty much the whole front) and the surf crashing, we felt we were on our own island getaway while in the apartment. The layout is fantastic as the master bedroom takes advantage of that view so you can go to bed with it and be greeted in the morning by it! And the access to one of the better beaches and top-notch snorkeling is a 30 second walk away. This is fantastic for a family as each can decide when they want to go down or come back for a snack or some respite from the sun. The overall property is very well kept, with up-to-date common area/pool.The only thing that will make this property better is when the new restaurant with fantastic ocean views will be finished (completion planned in fall of 2025). The host, Rick, was extremely helpful and responsive. Thanks to a fantastic property and host, we had a memorable family Christmas vacation (and anniversary)!

Our family enjoyed our pre-Christmas vacation to Maui made easy and enjoyable by Sara and John. The views, beach and location are spectacular with access to all that Kihei and Wailea have to offer. The unit itself was well equipped and very comfortable. Highly highly recommend. We will be back.

Among the three ocean front rentals in 3 islands, we had opportunity to watch the whale dancing at the Sunset. This is our first vacation at Hawaii, so we spent majority of the time outdoors, hence, not had opportunity to use what this resort has to offer. In the future, we definitely want to stay in the place longer and enjoy it more. Love the stay!

High recommend this property!!! The condo is located beachfront providing a fantastic balcony view of the large crescent shaped beach, ocean, and beautiful sunsets. The outside pool was very clean with a grass area with palm trees and comfortable lounge chairs located just beyond the pool. The sandy beach started next to the grass area. The grassy area saved you from getting beach sand if you just wanted to relax outside, read a book, and view the sunset. You can also snorkel and kayak right next to the condo.The inside of the property was very clean, updated, comfortable layout, and stocked with bath and beach towels. The kitchen was also well stocked with items for cooking. We prepared dinner every evening in the kitchen and ate at the balcony table during sunset. There are four quality grills available in the grass area. We reserved one for a specific time. When we went to use it, the grill was very clean and preheated. Once we were done, the condo staff cleaned it for the next user.The owner was easy to deal with and clearly communicated information. Overall the condo was very clean, great location with a wonderful view, nice layout and good amenities. We are already dreaming of returning!!!!!

From the communication before we arrived, the well equipped kitchen, to the sound of the ocean outside the window, this is the best experience we have had at the Mana Kai (our 5th visit!). We will be back!

We have stayed at this particular property a few times and in different units in building. It never fails to impress. You can’t get a better location in Maui Out oldest son lives in Maui and suite definitely has enough room to host the grandkids for a few sleepovers. The pool is great for families and is a great addition to the beach right on your door step

Decent accommodations with a perfect beach location and access. The property was a bit dated and undergoing some renovation work while we were there, but overall a positive experience. I would definitely consider staying at the property again if visiting this area.

The most updated, beautifully decorated condo we've stayed in at the Mana Kai. Everything was brand new and worked perfectly. The beds were super comfortable. The condo was well stocked with everything you need to cook and some excellent coffee. In addition, the welcome basket had assorted items, including a wine bottle. The closet area had lots of hooks to hang things, in addition to ample closet space. Highly recommend for adults.

Location in southern Maui was great for exploring the entire island. Views were great and the beach at the property was excellent for swimming and snorkeling.
The layout is a bit different than I thought when booking. The second bedroom in on an outside hallway leading the occur keep the curtains shut throughout the stay.

This condo unit was well equipped with everything we needed and it was all in great shape (ie the pots and pans were still in great condition). The beds were comfortable and we just love the lanai in the mornings for the sunrise and evenings for the sunset. The condo itself could use an update but it lacks nothing. I would’ve given this a 5-star stay but for the air conditioner in the main unit has a difficult time keeping the place cool at night if you don’t keep the main doors shut during the day - we ended up sleeping in the second bedroom where the ac worked fantastic in the smaller space. Also a ton of jack hammering going on in the main lobby that really resonated into the unit. Not the owners fault we know but hard to spend a lot of money on a vacation and have construction going on in the building at the same time. Also the condo restaurant is under a large renovation and looks like it will be awhile before that is back up and running as FYI.

Had a great stay in this unit. We spent three nights and have zero complaints about the unit itself. Clean, incredible views, comfortable bed, and plenty of extras.
We had a busy few days so didn’t get to take advantage of the pool but the beach is right there and is beautiful.
Thank you to the hosts for a great stay!

The lanai has a great view of the ocean and is the perfect place to have meals. The main bed is right next to the lanai. We opened the sliding doors to hear the ocean all night. It was magical. The condo also has easy and close access to the beach. The host was very responsive. The place was clean and tidy. There was also a cooler, beach chairs, beach towels, umbrella, and masks/snorkels. We highly recommend this place as well as the building. Just a quick note. The bar, restaurant and bathroom on the ground floor are currently closed as they will be putting in a new restaurant. There were signs that there could be construction but there wasn't any construction going on when we were there.

Had a wonderful stay here. We selected this because of its location directly on the beach and it did not disappoint! The unit was clean and well appointed. The only issue was that we did not know the number of the parking spot ahead of time so we had to call Guest Services from the parking lot but it was quickly resolved. We would like to stay here again sometime. Great memories- my daughter's boyfriend proposed on the beach here!

Great unit in great location. Unit was as depicted, with ocean view and right on the beach. Very comfy bed. Communication with property manager was seamless and we got into the property early. The property was clean, but there were tiny ants in the kitchen/bathroom area. They were harmless but a bit annoying. Otherwise, perfect rental.
