Highly experienced host with 5 star rating on other platforms, new to VRBO! PLEASE NOTE: Construction is well underway for the highly anticipated Beach House by Merriman’s! Target date for opening is Fall 2026. During the renovation we are offering discounted rates due to intermittent noise and inconvenience! (only M-F / 8-5 no holidays) What a great opportunity to take advantage of our lower pricing!
Inside this beachfront retreat, you’ll find a beautifully appointed, airy condo designed for comfort and style! Amazing ocean views from BOTH master suites! This condo is well stocked with all the essentials for a family-we’ve thought of EVERYTHING!
We are located on the border of Kihei and Wailea-the driest, and most sunny area in all of Maui! What makes our condo different? We have truly thought of everything! As owners we stay at our condo often and put a lot of thought into providing the very best experience for our guests. You also have access to us directly, not a corporate web that manages hundreds of other units. Read on for all the details!
The open-concept living space features large wall to wall sliding glass doors and a private lanai, showcasing stunning views of the Pacific Ocean and swaying palms. Start your mornings with coffee as you listen to the waves, or enjoy a relaxing evening cocktail while the sun dips below the horizon. This view is truly like being in a real life postcard!! ❤️
PLEASE NOTE: The front area of this condo is “studio” style. The living room shares space with one of the king suites, when the sliding shoji doors are open.
There are NO better views than from the lanai of a Mana Kai condo, and you are closer than you can imagine to the beach and ocean! There is an amazing coral reef for snorkeling directly in front of the Mana Kai, and you are steps from what is undeniably the best beach on Maui. Our condo is in a perfect spot, able to see all the way down the coastline without being blocked by any bushes or trees.
Are you looking for a place that has the resort feel without the high price tag and crazy fees? Whether you want a “home base” which to venture out from or a place you can plant your flag and never have to leave, Mana Kai offers resort-style amenities alongside all the benefits of a condo. We also have much larger lanais and are closer to the water than most condos classified as “beachfront”. Everything you need is at the Mana Kai, including:
- 808 General Store-locally owned by the same owners as 808 Deli, an award winning sandwich shop-providing amenities, groceries, deli, smoothies, sunscreen, alcohol etc.
- Workout room for guests-new equipment and mats
