No other condo on Maui can beat this beachfront location and upscale modernity mixed with Hawaiian beachfront chic. Full remodel finished in December 2023.
Located in the oceanfront B Building, the entire unit faces outwards over the Pacific Ocean through a fifteen foot length glass door. The first thing visitors say is, “oh god, it looks exactly like the pictures. Wow.”
Through the door, the lanai has a view that makes even the locals say, "wow." Even the professional pictures I had done don’t do the experience justice. You will fall in love with it instantly, it is truly amazing.
The lanai is the perfect place for you to relax and find peace watching the ocean, easily spot whales playing in the Pacific, watch the unobstructed sunsets, and stargaze and relax. You can also bbq under the sun from the privacy of your own lanai, which is rare on Maui.
In front of the condo is Chang’s beach, more commonly referred to as “turtle town.” If you take a snorkel tour of South Maui, those boats will likely take you to these shores to experience some of Maui’s most lively snorkeling. You will see turtles if you snorkel here, they are everywhere at Chang’s. Many guests have taken themselves on their own whale watch trip by paddle boarding in the morning. (Paddleboards and Kayaks are not provided, they must be rented).
Walking back through the lanai, the condo provides its own luxuries. A modern and comfortably furnished living room is the perfect place to spend your morning eating breakfast while listening to the ocean waves crash. The kitchen is fully equipped for you, while the BBQ is also only steps away from the dining room.
The kitchen, dining area, and living area were all recently furnished and remodeled in the Fall of 2023. The furniture is a mix of classic brand names and has incredible style.
Each bedroom has its own separate full bathroom.
Not to miss a game or an episode, the living room also features an entertainment center with a 65 inch Samsung LED SmartTv as well as an Roku, a Bose sound bar, and a "take one, leave one" book library. Both the living room and bedroom TVs have cable and RokuTv.
Just out the front door of the B Building are a heated pool and hot tub exclusively for guests of the Makena Surf B building, perfect for floating in the sun or soaking your body after a day spent on the sand. Adjacent to the pool are two well-maintained tennis courts, pickle ball courts, and a tropical garden. Four tennis rackets are provided, as well as tennis balls. Tennis lessons and clinics are also available during certain periods. Pickleball set is also provided in the utility locker.
The condo has an activity locker that is loaded with all the beach and leisure supplies you would want in Hawaii. There are complete sets of adult and children’s fins and snorkels, boogie boards, pool noodles, four tennis rackets, pickle ball set, children’s beach toys, beach chairs, beach umbrellas, and some other nicknacks left behind by prior guests.
The condo kitchen is fully stocked as if you had lived there for several years. It is ready to handle all of your cooking, baking, and BBQ’ing needs.
If you have any questions, please ask. I am glad to act as a concierge to guide your reservations to the best restaurants, boating services, spas, and hidden local gems. There is also a welcome book with much of this advice in writing.
Disclaimers: - Visitors from Canada: Before booking, pay attention to your flight times. Almost all flights to Canada from Maui leave AFTER 10pm. Unfortunately, after many bad actors late check out is not available for this unit. If you would like to use the unit “for the day” you will need to reserve another full day- No exceptions. - This unit does not sleep five adults, unless the fifth is a baby in a crib. Four adults maximum. - There are several tools provided to make awesome coffee: drip, k cup, nespresso, pourover. I do my best to frequently stock the bar but guests are ultimately responsible for acquiring their own coffee/pods/grounds/beans.

Fantastic stay all around! It was perfect for my family of 4 and had everything we could have needed! Such nice personal touches with the welcome goodies. Our first night we were welcomed with the most amazing sunset view.
Amazing location with perfect views, and great beach right out your front door. Kitchen was well stocked with all that you needed, and great personal touches like fresh pineapple, champagne, and other Hawaii goodies.
We were thrilled to stay in this gorgeous condo right on the beach! It has been completely updated with beautiful decor, and had all the amenities we could possibly want. The bed was extremely comfortable, the view was amazing, all condiments were provided, and a big chest full of snorkel gear, boogie boards and everything else needed for the beach was right out front. Best of all was the gorgeous bouquet and goodies waiting for us on the counter - we truly enjoyed them! Many thanks to the host!
Best sunset views ever! Travelled with my parents for my mom’s birthday and they never left the lanai. We all enjoyed amazing sunset views and dinners outside. The condo is stunning. Very clean and check in/out process is a breeze. Snorkelling right off the beach and seeing turtles was an added delight. Would highly recommend this condo.
Had an amazing time at this property. The location, amenities, communication with the owner, everything was great and would definitely come back again.The home is well appointed and clean. The location and view is off the charts. Many thanks for the hospitality.
We can’t say enough about how we just loved our visit. The unit was perfect for our family and Peter was extremely responsive and great with communication. It was hard to leave and look forward to the opportunity to book again!
We enjoyed everything at this lovely condo, the Makena Surf property is beautiful and all facilities are spotless! We will be back next year for sure…mahalo
10/10 could not have asked for a more perfect property! The view was incredible!!! The beach and snorkeling were amazing! Location was ideal. The owner was wonderful to work with and we appreciated our welcome gift after a long flight! Thank you for sharing your fabulous property and the hospitality!
Absolutely stunning views. Looks exactly like the photos. Host was incredible. Everything you need is in the condo at your fingertips. Better than a hotel. I cannot recommend this unit enough will be coming back for sure.
We had such a wonderful stay! The property was clean and well updated. The view when you walk in will literally take your breath away. It was the perfect week for our family- the teens loved the pool area and tennis courts. The beach was great and had good snorkeling as well- had two turtles pop over to say hi one afternoon while we were swimming. Peter was so hospitable and made us feel at home. Thank you so much for making it such a great week!
We love staying at the Makena Surf and this unit was well located on the property. Peter was very helpful and available if we needed anything. Very nice unit and had everything we needed.

About the host
Hosted by Peter Shenkin
The Shenkin Family has been in love with Maui since the 1950's, when Budd and Ann began spending lengths of time here as young children. Since then, they have passed their love of Hawaii, and Maui in particular, to the rest of their family, including their son Peter who makes his home on Maui.
As a family, we are proud to be a part of Maui's small community and we are proud to own at the Makena Surf. We want to show all of the sincere and relaxing beauty of Maui and her beaches, and we hope you enjoy our home as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
The Makena Surf is the premier destination for condo travelers on Maui. It offers the best views of the Pacific Ocean from each unit, especially the B Building, which is the only ocean front condo building in South Maui. This unit is on the top floor of the B Building and has every advantage to it: being on the top floor, oceanfront, exclusive, quiet, modern, and elegant.
What makes this property unique
There is simply nowhere as beautiful and as inspiring as living on the water on Chang's beach. There are few places in the world as scenic and as private as the beaches of Makena Surf in South Maui. It's no wonder that the surrounding real estate has transformed in the last fifteen years into a "billionaires alley" with tycoons of business and finance snapping up all of the nearby real estate.
