Beach house vacation rentals in Makena

Nice cozy spot near the beach. It was quiet, easily accessible and the hosts (both virtual and in-person) were friendly. Would stay here again!

Beautiful condo in Kihei with every possible amenity to make you feel right at home. Private and peaceful with a pool, beach access. Perfect for getting around to snorkeling which was nearby. Access to stores too. Great place from which to visit Haleakala as well!

This was a fantastic place to spend our week in Maui. The condo was amazing and spacious with all the amenities you would need to enjoy your time. The location is perfect, relatively close to the airport and well situated next to route 30 so you could go everywhere on the island quite easily. The view from the condo is second to none, from the patio you can easily see the Haleakalā mountain and from the front door is a great sight of the western Maui mountains. And on top of everything this condo was much more peaceful than the huge resort areas. There were not too many people around, and even when we did go to the beach we were able to find a spot easily. I’d recommend this condo for anyone who wants to spend a week or a few days in Maui - the price is quite good compared to the normal resorts, you get a great view and anything you don’t pick up on your way from the airport you can grab on a 20 minute drive to Kihei. This place was perfect for us.

Amazing house in a beautiful location. The beach is rocky but you can walk up to a sandy area easily. There is a super gorgeous tree swing in the park nextdoor that our kids loved walking to. We loved the neighborhood cat, Buddy, and watching the locals fishing out front.

The condo was perfect! Very quiet property and the water view was wonderful. Unfortunately, we just missed whale season but still enjoyed watching the kayakers going by. The kitchen had every item we needed and the washer/dryer was so appreciated. The elevator in the building is very efficient and parking was no problem at all. The location is excellent…not in a busy area and very easy to get to everything on the island. We will be back!

Annie is a great host, the home was clean and comfortable. The beach a minute or two walk. The pool is close to the condo, about a minute too. We slept peacefully in the comfortable beds, the kitchen was well stocked, and the place is beautiful and comforting. We sat outside to drink coffee in the mornings and it felt like home, but better.

Great location. Had a minor issue, but Lisa was on top of it . Making sure we were enjoying our trip. Would recommend to anyone visiting Maui! Mahalo!

it was amazing the people was amazing we felt right at home extremely recommend

Great and comfortable stay. Loved the sunset views. Very walkable beach right out front, and it was great having all the accessories like beach chairs and other gear available to take to nearby snorkeling spots and coves. Gary and Sarah and the Aloha Aku team were communicative and quick to reply, and they'll really have pit a lot of energy into making the property inviting and relaxing. Note - the bathroom is within the bedroom area and not fully enclosed, so there's not much privacy in that regard. Not an issue, just something to be aware of if booking as a group.

Steve’s place is great and he is an excellent communicator and very invested in ensuring his guests have a great experience. We loved watching the sunset from the deck and the pool and game room were both so fun for our family. Lots of pantry staples on hand as well as some yummy snacks to greet us. The location is private and peaceful and we loved all the beautiful Hawaiian plants and geckos in the yard. Thanks for a great stay!

When we arrived, we got confused trying to find the entrance, but if you read the instructions carefully, you should be fine! I had the most communication and clearer instructions here than anywhere else I've stayed with AirBnB-like places! The property is beautiful, the beach there is great for walks and sights, but not the best for swimming/snorkeling as it is usually murky. The hot tub and pools are really neat. The accommodations are exactly as described and really well done.

We had a great time staying here! The place was exactly what I expected. Loved using the pool, and both the bed and couch bed were comfy. Sad to have to leave!

Serene and peaceful! Just about everything needed to make all the typical activities convenient, including all of the equipment, beach towels and chairs, etc. A very quiet and private environment. Can’t wait to come back!

Gary's condo is on a private beach with private pool and hot tub. The common area has all the amenities you could ask for. Very impressed!

Stayed just over 3 weeks in this spectacular unit. Well appointed, incredible views, so clean! It was fully stocked with anything and everything you could possibly need. Full size toiletries in bathrooms, tons of clean linens, soap, detergent, cleaning supplies, and toilet paper to cover our entire stay. We felt right at home. Andre was responsive and immediately assisted when we had an issue with the AC unit in the second bedroom upon arrival. There is ongoing construction in the complex, but it didn't affect our building or interrupt our stay at all. Parking is open season during this construction period, which turned out great because we could choose any open spot - super convenient and tons of availability. Kamaole Sands is our fav complex in Kihei and we are already planning our return visit. Will definitely stay in this unit over and over again.

First trip in Maui, this was a wonderful house to have for our family. It was spacious and clean, everything organized and easy enough to fit into for our week. Backyard was peaceful, and the kitchen was stocked well.

The coconut cottage is an ideal base for Maui adventures! Large, spacious property to easily accommodate up to 6-8 people - with a full functioning kitchen, 2.5 baths, large backyard and a lovely front-facing deck. We had the most luxurious and comfy stay, and lots of fun family memories in the main living area. The property is located in Kihei, with quick access to the beach, shopping and local markets. Marc is the most gracious host, and was incredibly accommodating, easily accessible and super kind. 10/10 recommend!!!! Would love to come back at some stage :)

Aloha Aku has been everything we wanted, and more. The photos and descriptions don't do it justice. We were originally booked for five days, but extended our trip twice, for a total of 10 days because everything here is just so perfect!

Wonderful to stay at Leanne’s place! Great spot to work remotely while enjoying Maui. And such a responsive and helpful host! Strongly recommend!

This is a great find. Everything was as described. Very good location. Nice clean cottage that is equipped with everything we needed for 8 days stay. I would highly recommend.

This is really well situated. A hundred feet from the back door and you are on the beach. Wake to the sounds of the birds from the adjacent wildlife refuge. It's intimate, with only four rental units in the building. No big hotels in the area, so the beach is uncrowded, and has basking sea turtles! Beautiful sunsets. They could have had 5 units, but kindly equipped the middle unit as a common room where departing guests leave food, drinks, and supplies like sunscreen, bug spray, etc. Free snorkeling and beach supplies, bikes with lights/locks/helmets, boogie and paddleboards, an ocean kayak, TONS of movies, books, and CDs. Our unit was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the kitchen was equipped with everything except a dishwasher and a full-size oven (there is big high quality toaster oven). Note the toilet/shower area is open at the top. Gary and his team communicated clearly for entry and exit but otherwise left us alone unless we had a question. Would definitely stay again.

We had a great stay at our “Hawaii” house. We made good use of the covered lanai where we sat and visited while the kids ran around in the yard looking for the rooster and the cat. The daily visit of the geckos was also a highlight. The bedrooms were spacious especially the master which had enough room for two blowup mattresses for the kids. Location was perfect making it easy to get to the Kamaole beaches. We also loved that we could walk to Kalama park. It was also a short drive to the outdoor pool. We swam in the morning and built sand castles in the afternoon. My 5 year old grandson met a playmate at the pool and they arranged a play date at Kamaole 3 in the afternoon. The sand toys were well used. With Foodland so close by, we were able to shop every second day and eat as much poke, pineapples, and papayas as we wanted. We also walked to the food trucks and the South Maui gardens. Deb was very responsive to inquiries and we appreciated that she gave us a late checkout.

Rina’s place was great for us. It had all the basic amenities that we needed. The place is a quick walk to the town of Paia and a few local beaches. All the food in the town is great and the beaches were awesome. It was a good place to rest after a long day of being out and about. No complaints here.
