Top Makena Hotel Reviews

Maui Coast Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very beautiful hotel that truly wants to provide their guests with a beautiful &relaxing stay. We were greeted with aloha each day by staff. Everyone was friendly and accommodating. We were given an upgrade to a king suite which added to a wonderful 35th anniversary stay here. There were gorgeous orchids to pin in your hair or on your sun hat each day. I really enjoyed that, thank you Maui Coast. We put to use the refillable water bottles and the hospitality suite was such a nice amenity at no extra cost. It was great to have access to the pools that day, since we had an evening departure flight. Such a relaxing last day. I’ve never seen that offered in any places I’ve stayed. There were just so many pleasant things that I would not have wanted to stay anywhere else on the island. If we were to return to Maui again, this is where I would want to stay. Aloha lives here.
