We stayed here for a week with 2 kids (7 and 9), and it was overall a wonderful experience.
PROS:
Location - excellent proximity to beach and a short drive to all the action/beaches in Kihei. The rock reef right outside the property had turtles we could see each morning!
Pool was very warm, very clean, and the kids LOVED it!
Kitchen was very well-stocked and had everything we needed (and more!)
Very comfy beds, nice linens, good storage, and individual AC units in each bedroom
Excellent communication with property manager. Very responsive and helpful.
CONS:
Updated/outdated - it was definitely an older property, and nice updates have been made, but it felt a bit haphazard (ex: concrete walls mean that all conduit for AC is run on the outside of the walls. ex: bathrooms have nice tiled showers, but old tub and 1970s trash can. ex: multiple different tiles instead of one cohesive look.) None of this impacted how much we thoroughly enjoyed the place, but if you're looking for fully updated and "new", this wouldn't be the unit.
Floors - I'm sure the logistics of keeping tile floors clean at the beach is difficult, but our feet were filthy if we didn't wear socks or flip flops in the unit.
The walkway/ramp into the parking lot (from the side elevator) had a very "hidden" curb because of how it was tiled. I tripped off this and sprained my ankle and bruised my knee very badly. It could have been much worse, but please use caution with this ramp!

We loved staying here. The view was spectacular. This was a great option for us for our stay on Maui. The condo is well appointed. Communication was quick and easy. There are great restaurants within a 5 minute drive and the beach outside the condo area is great. We didn’t use the pool but it wasn’t crowded when we walked by a few times. The Indian restaurant smelled great but permeated some in the elevator and sometimes, the external hallway. We would stay here again.

My family stayed in this lovely unit for a week. Everything went very smoothly. The turtles on the beaches out front were definitely a highlight! the rooftop grilling was great except for the wind we had but that just mother nature! The only thing I wish the unit had more of was beach items ( better chairs, an umbrella) but that's okay. We really enjoyed our stay and the lanai was wonderful. The location was great, so close to many things on the Island.

The Menehune was a perfect location and setting for our small family group. The accommodations were exactly what we needed and beach access was great. We really enjoyed our stay and recommend the condo to everyone. Mahalo!

Enjoyed stay. Bird droppings on lanei chair took 4 days to get cleaned. Cleaning lady came 30 minutes early on check out day. Excellent view. Easy ocean access.

Perfect location in north Kihei and easy to get anywhere in the island within 20 mins. Condo was spacious and has beautiful view of the ocean and palm trees. The condo is equipped with 3 AC units which kept it cool when we didn't want to open the windows due to high winds and smoky air from the brush fires. The trade-off is the main HVAC unit is on the patio and it gives off hot air. So we couldn't enjoy the outside patio and breeze due to the hot air being blown. Otherwise, we recommend the unit and condo community and we'd stay there again.

This is a wonderful place to stay. It was close to all of the shops and restaurants in Kihei, but also felt private. The beach access is right outside your unit and there are many places to get into and enjoy the water without concerns of rocks or strong waves or currents.

It was very clean and no bugs. But the unit is a little outdated. View was great. A few things needed some attention to but overall it was nice. I would probably find another place to stay next time. My sister stayed at the same complex but her unit was updated but, of course, more expensive.

The view was the top reason we chose this location and it did not disappoint! We traveled with our two adult kids so the extra room was great! Lots of space! AC which was much appreciated after a long day in the sun!! Only recommendation would be for more beach stuff, noodles, paddle boards, goggles, floats or tubes. To help parents of small kids have everything needed with no worries . Not a big deal but would be nice! First day coffee pot wasnt working and they were quick to replace it so we did not miss our morning coffee which is a must 😉 the view again was amazing! Will definitely come back for another visit!!

This was a lovely home away from home during our family of four's visit to Maui (2 adults and 2 teens). The building is large but you'd never know it since it's incredibly quiet. Even during the peak holiday season it was incredibly peaceful and we didn't see that many people even though we know units were full. The unit itself is just as described - spacious, well appointed, comfortable, clean. The kitchen was well-stocked with most basics, the furniture was in great shape and very comfortable, WiFi was reliable, and everything was in good working order which made for a hassle-free vacation. We loved the view from the lanai and the cross-breeze with the front and lanai doors open when we were home, and ceiling fans and shades kept things cool when we weren't home. The unit is 3-4 away from the main S. Kihei Road so there is some noise from louder cars and trucks at times, and there is regular lawn maintenance with leaf blowers and trimmers, but otherwise it's a very peaceful getaway. We enjoyed the community BBQs and picnic tables on the roof deck and never had an issue with having enough space sharing with others. We've stayed in several condos on Maui and this was a great one with a very responsive property manager, we highly recommend it.

This is a good property; however, what makes it breathtaking is the view and location. Whether in the master bedroom or the balcony, it feels like you in another world. You could probably spend your entire stay in Maui on the property and be happy.
