Another great stay at Makani Sands!

We come to Maui every January, and this is our favorite place to stay due to location and proximity.

Beautiful place right on the sand

The place has a five stars location, right on the sand in beautiful Lahaina, only a 3 min walk from the nearest beach. The grounds are kept immaculate, the apartment is small and comfortable. It was great for our family vacation.

Makani Sands - Maui Hawaii

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A small floor level apartment, for maximum of 4 people. Centrally located in Kaanapali, 10 minute drive to Lahaina and a 15 min drive North to beaches. Wonderful view from the patio with seating area and easy access to the water. Be mindful to empty the garbage regularly as little ants enjoy it. They provide the basics such as toilet paper and 4 washer capsules. To replenish when you run out.

Not bad not great

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property was clean and maintained. Not much in the way of little extras. Have stayed at condos before in Maui that will provide beach chairs and ice chests for convenience. The hot water worked barely long enough on low pressure for one person to have a quick luke warm shower at best. Also was the only unit without a Lanai to block out afternoon sun without closing up the entire unit with the curtain. Thankfully we didn’t spend much time there as there is so much to do outside. But overall am satisfied with the stay. Very affordable nightly cost with an excellent view.

Good, could be better

The location of this condo was great! Very quiet, easy to find, away from the hussle and bussle and had a great view of the water. A 10-15 min drive to downtown Lahaina and some pretty beach spots! However, this unit seemed pretty outdated compared to other units I happened to glance over at. Upon arrival, a maintenance man was trying to enter the unit at the same time as my designated check in time. In my opinion, repairs should have been taken care of prior to my arrival. There was repairs needed to be done. Slider door was difficult to open, lanai shutters were broken and we were the only unit without a pull down shade on the patio. Floors were a little dirty and found some hair from previous tenants on the couch. Water in shower would only stay warm for about 5 min forcing me to rush to take a shower, unless cold showers are your forte. Multiple lights did not work. A little disappointed having to pay a cleaning fee when asked at check out to make sure I took out my own trash and washed my own dishes. If upgrades and repairs were made and housekeeping improved, I would book again!
