Perfect for a family of 5

Overall, the location and condo worked perfectly for our family of five (all adults). Check-in was easy, plenty of parking, quiet area, rooms and bathrooms were clean, bbq grill was easy to use, checkout was easy and the condo was right off the beach. This rental is in a great location which isn’t too far from a grocery store, gas station and other restaurants. We would definitely book this same condo in the future.

Ideal location for our group

We had a total of 5 families of different sizes and age ranges vacationing together. We rented two units in this same building and it was the perfect spot for us! There was plenty of space inside the units to accommodate everyone. Plenty of seating inside and outside and you just can’t beat the views and how close the beach is. I also loved the neighborhood feel of this location versus being in a more resort-like setting. We had all of the same accommodations with a much more private feel.

The property was very nice and had a great beach. There was no air conditioning (my mistake for not checking) but the breeze off the ocean made us not even notice!

Long awaited trip to Hawaii

Excellent property and location. The ability to get right in the ocean and swim with the turtles was absolutely awesome. The facility met all our needs and was nicely decorated. Our location allowed us easy access to tours, Lahaina, restaurants or just plain grilling out on the property was excellent.

Beautiful view, spacious and perfect for a family

This place has the best view of any of the places we stayed during our 2 week trip across the Hawaiian islands. The condo was spacious and fit our families needs perfectly. No air conditioning but plenty of fans and are fires like towels and beach equipment was a plus.

We enjoyed visiting with those that live in the complex and those also enjoying their vacation. The evening blowing of the Chonch was an experience we enjoyed. The proximity to all of our adventures we took was a bonus. I would recommend staying here to anyone and would come back.

Nice, clean, gorgeous sunset views

My husband, 3 teen daughters and I stayed here over July 4th. We had an amazing time and loved the condo. Very clean. The views of the beach and the sunset were unbeatable. We all really enjoyed snorkeling off the private beach, seeing lots of cool fish and the occasional turtle. Loved having a private beach and never having to worry about crowds. Short walk to the food truck park (tip: go early for dinner). Will definitely stay again.

Gorgeous view

A group of us (3 couples) stayed at the condo after a weeklong cruise around the Hawaiian islands, planning to unwind and just chill after a busy week. Great coffee shops to walk to, and a some great beaches close by. Being able to sit out on the lanai right on the ocean, was so soothing and relaxing! Not much of a breach right there, but we certainly went in the water daily! Condo had everything we needed in it! Comfy beds and couches too! Tammy was very pleasant to deal with :)

Returning to our Favorite Place

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Once again, Makani Sands was an enjoyable place to stay. This was our 5th visit/stay. We enjoy the location, the friendly staff, and the nice comfortable rooms. This was our first time visiting in December/January. Saw lots of whales, turtles, and other marine life. The weather was awesome, no rain! Just sunshine and beautiful skies. We were truly sadden by the damage due to the fires in Lahaina and supported businesses as much as we could. Prayers go out to ALL people of Maui as they rebuild their lives and homes. Looking forward to our next vacation!

There is no management for this property.

There were stains on blankets and the shower in one of bathrooms did not work from the first day. We contacted to the host and management team of this property through emails, calls, and knocking their office but nothing was reachable. It was horrible experience since our group share only one shower room during the stays. We tried to contact VRBO and this property office to talk about it. There is no action except creating an issue ticket from VRBO.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We vacationed on Maui with our 3 children, ages 15, 18, and 20. Makani Sands had room for us to spread out and have our own spaces. The balcony was my husband's favorite spot. So close to the water, cool breeze, turtles swimming by the rocks... The location was perfect. Just short drives to great restaurants or snorkeling and a nice walk to the Farmers' market. Kitchen was well appointed and beds were comfortable. Only drawback was no air conditioning. The balcony faced due west, so the afternoon sun heated it up pretty good each day. A/C would have made the evenings nicer.

Fabulous ocean-front condo in Maui (#305)

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: If you’re looking for a beautiful condo on the shores of West Maui, this is the place. This 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath condo has spectacular views of Molokai and Lanai off the two ocean-front lanais (one off the living room and one off the 4th floor master bedroom), not to mention daily sightings of whales & sea turtles. The condo itself is spacious, very clean, tastefully decorated and extremely well-appointed. You can swim & snorkel right out front, enjoy the heated pool out back or hit the nearby beaches of Ka’anapali. Great location away from the crowded resorts yet close to numerous restaurants and shops in Ka’anapali and Lahaina or further north in Kapalua. The owners clearly care about their guests; there was nothing more we could have asked for during our stay on this beautiful island. Aloha!

Amazing view with extreme comfort

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have been coming back to Makani Sands for 20 years sometimes twice in a year. This was our first time staying on the third floor in the 3 bedroom and we absolutely loved it. I love the view from there. The master is facing the ocean while the first and second floor rooms the master is in back towards pool. There is a patio on first floor outside of living room and second room has a small one facing the back. It makes a difference having your master face the ocean. The room we stayed at (305), is remodeled. Very nicely done. The newly remodeled hard scape is terrific, bbqs are new. Love all the torches at night in front of hotel. We will be back! Until next time, Mahalo.
