This is our 4th time staying at the Mana Kai and we love it! The condo was exactly as described and has the best view in the building. Since it is the condo closest to the ocean, the second bedroom has an unobstructed view of the ocean (no walkway). The décor was lovely and updated. Enjoyed our stay and would definitely book again. Hope to see you soon.

The view and island vibes were amazing! It was very clean and had lots of amenities. I rented the whole unit and wasn’t aware that there was two separate doors for A and B. This actually worked better for my trip as I came with another couple so it allowed privacy while also being together. I loved that it was right next to the beach and we could simply walk down and be there within a minute.

The best view I’ve ever picked on a hotel or VRBO. Both rooms had ocean views. Quiet and comfortable. Better than expected was the response our entire group felt. Looking to book again in the future.

The owner has done a remarkable renovation with incredibly modern detailing. Has to be seen to be appreciated. One small appliance issue was dealt with immediately with response from owner and on island maintenance. Will request this unit again if available.

We love the Mana Kai. This is our 3rd time staying. Swam with turtles off the beach and saw lots of whales from our balcony. Beautiful place to stay!

Great location....this is probably one of the best units in the building....and dare I say, the best condo/hotel location in Kihei. Both rooms have a great view. Nice to have laundry down the hall because if you're staying a week, you're going to want to clean towels and clothes. Since the pool is next to a public space, be aware that you will randomly be interrogated while you're at the pool by condo staff to confirm your room and name. Apparently people sneak in so that's their way to try and keep non-guests out. I had been at this location years ago and was expecting that the restaurant would be open so I was pretty disappointed to find that it shut down. It's in the process of being remodeled and will be up and running in a year or so. We will definitely visit Mana Kai again.

Loved the condo, view and location. Would go back and stay here again. You cannot beat the view of the ocean and beach off the lanai and you also have an amazing view walking the corridor to your room. I loved how the second room felt secluded to give my teenagers privacy. Also, the ability to make two twin beds in their room was wonderful! Condo had everything we needed. The snorkeling on the beach below was great! We saw several sea turtles, tropical fish, and eels. We traveled to other beaches to snorkel as well, but found the reef at our condo provided plenty to see!

Spent 4 nites here in October renting both bedrooms. You can't tell from the pictures but each bedroom has its own bathroom with the larger bedroom having a connected kitchen in what amounts to a large studio. The two bedroom are connected by a short hallway. The big bedroom has a wonderful view of Keawakapu Beach. We spent lots of time on the lanai ogling the views of Wailea and Molokini. There's a nice pool and grassy area with lawn furniture fronting the beach though with little shade. A couple of gas barbeques are also on site, though they're a bit far from the beach so we didn't use them. There's a small store on site as well as a vacant restaurant. One drawback is that the windows in the unit were drafty and a bit old. This wouldn't make a difference except that when the trade winds come up in the evening, and they come up often here, the windows rattle a lot, which can bother light sleepers. Also, the unit is a bit noisy as we could hear our neighbors on their lanai or in their rooms. It wasn't too loud, but we're used to quieter properties. The property management company was pretty good, with good communication and even letting us know that we could check in several hours early without charge.

The views from the condo are absolutely stunning. The beach is steps off the property and it’s quite a large beach. You can walk it, swim, snorkel and boggie board. The only thing I would say is that as we are out of State guests we would have liked more beach towels to be available.

As expected. Bed is comfy. Water pressure not great but good enough. Water gets in the floor from the shower which is a bit annoying bc no bath mat. Kitchen well stocked and the view is the best part. We enjoyed our stay. We did have an issue with the tv remote not working and they promptly got us a new one.

This is a lovely condo in a very good location. We enjoyed the pool and beach. The balcony was a great spot to watch water sports of all kinds at the beach. There is good grocery shopping and restaurants nearby. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Stayed at this property with my son and his wife. It was wonderful, very comfortable, well equipped, balcony overlooking the beautiful beach which was fabulous, close to great restaurants, easy access, car spot. Loved staying here, and would definitely stay again when I return to Maui.

Our family of 3 stayed at the condo for a week. It had everything we needed while we were there, including a well equipped kitchen. We loved the grass lawn steps away from the beach. Beach was great for snorkeling and boogie boarding. Would recommend and plan to stay again.

Our first time staying at Mana Kai and I can't wait to return! We were a family of four with two teen sons 16 and 14. The unit worked perfect with the lock off bedroom and bathroom providing the boys their own space. The unit was spotless and it has a million dollar view. The property fronts a spectacular beach and I spent hours snorkeling at the reef right out. The on-site restaurant and general store were closed due to a change in ownership, but that didn't hamper our resort experience at all. Mana Kai is centrally located and a short drive or mile long walk to great shops and restaurants. I can't wait to return! Mahalo! Mahalo! Mahalo!

This was our first time in Kihea area of Maui. The condo was a nice size, it was clean and well stocked. The second bedroom was very noisy with the wind rattling the windows constantly. We were a little disappointed with the view since we could not see the sunset from our balcony. Upstairs guests activity can also be heard quite easily as well. Owner tried to get the dishwasher fixed prior to our arrival but that was not able to happen, as with much of Hawaii currently, it takes patience to receive many services. The restaurant in the building and the store were closing for construction so it had staffing issues as well and we couldn't access without advance planning. The beaches were beautiful, child friendly waves and very busy.

The condo was immaculately clean, beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Beds were great, kitchen was well equipped - perfect for our stay! The refrigerator does say the water filter needs to be replaced and one of the 3 fans did not turn on but other than that it was absolutely perfect. Great ocean view, steps to a beautiful beach and a good size pool. We would not hesitate to return to this property again!

Location, being able to watch the sunset from the balcony! Listening to the ocean waves crashing at night.

It was everything I could've dreamed of and more! The view from both windows, and the balcony was incredible, you can see the entire other side of the island, and the beautiful ocean right in front of you. We could hear the soft crashing waves and sounds of the ocean all night... it was absolutely mesmerizing. The kitchen was the perfect size (Appliances all up to date) and the decor was beautiful. Overall we had excellent experience. Would highly recommend staying here.

Best condo at Mana Kai we've ever rented and we've been here over 10 times. It's clearly totally renovated with beautiful new floor, cabinets and furnishings. Super nice and comfortable. The views from both the front and back units are incredible.

Wake up to a panorama of gently swaying palm trees, a golden sand beach, and magnificent mountain views. There is great snorkeling right off the beach. This modern unit has everything you need to be comfortable and is located close to many wonderful restaurants. We loved staying here and hope to return.
