We had stayed at Makani sands another time in a different unit. It was lovely. We were expecting the same this time and were very disappointed. The unit definitely needs updating.It wasn’t very clean-would not choose this unit again or recommend it to friends.

Aloha Kathryn, Mahalo for staying with us again. We are so glad you enjoyed your previous visit, but we are truly sorry this stay didn't live up to those expectations. Regarding the dust—being directly oceanfront means that when those unexpected storms hit, the salt air and wind can unfortunately pull debris in very quickly if the lanai doors are open. However, we take your comments about the unit's condition and cleanliness seriously and will be looking into updates. We would love the chance to host you again in a refreshed unit and make things right. Mahalo!

Great spot on maui

Had a great stay here. Great views and good location. I usually stay down this way when I come here. Could use some better beach chairs but we used all the towels instead. Enjoyed seeing whales and turtles this time too.

This condo was perfect for our family of 4, loved the views and location. Liam was very accommodating, letting us have late check out when our flight was canceled.

Excellent Stay in Maui

We had a wonderful visit in Maui and the condo in Makani Sands was exactly as described. Wonderful sunset views and just steps to the ocean. The area is very convenient with shops and restaurants close by, but the location of the property feels secluded (you have the beach almost to yourself). Overall, an excellent stay!

Maui 2025

Its a nice, not crowded place to stay. Snorkled with sea turtles every day. Use a tide chart to know when to go. Pool was nice to have access to. Beds were comfy. Kitchen was well equipped. Washer and dryer worked well.

Aloha Russell, Mahalo for the wonderful review! We are so glad to hear you had such a relaxing, uncrowded stay with us. It’s fantastic that you were able to snorkel with the sea turtles every day—that is truly one of the best parts of staying right here on the water. Your tip about checking the tide charts is spot on; it really makes a difference for the best visibility and safety while out in the reef. We would love to welcome you back to our little slice of paradise anytime! Aloha.

Nice unit with great ocean view

Well equipped kitchen. Ample living supplies (TP, paper towels, laundry detergent, etc.) - enough for 2 weeks. Good visibility for whale watching. Includes everything you need for your trip to the beach. Master bath is on the small side.

Aloha Rich, Mahalo for the detailed review! We are so glad you enjoyed the ocean views and that the whale watching was a success—there truly isn't a better seat in the house during whale season. It’s great to hear that the kitchen and our "starter" supplies like the laundry detergent and paper goods helped make your two-week stay more comfortable. We try our best to ensure our guests have everything they need for a seamless beach day as well! We appreciate the honest feedback regarding the master bath layout. While some of the original footprints in these oceanfront units can be cozy, we hope the views and location made up for it. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to have you back again soon! Mahalo.

Lovely views - bring binoculars to watch whales from the balcony

Overall a great stay. 2nd floor/corner unit of a 4 floor building. Amazing view and sound of waves crashing from the balcony. Loved having the doors open while we were in the apartment as well. Plenty of room for 3 of us. Place is slightly dated but very clean. Not much to do within walking distance. Certainly not a party area if that is what you’re after, though I’m not sure anywhere in Maui is.

Lewis the property manager was great. The view exceptional. Cons: no direct access to any walkable beach. The condo needs some updating. It was a 3 star as the cleanliness was just ok. I wouldn’t stay there again, as we are more accustom to a higher level of a condo

Aloha Dianne, Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. Unfortunately, there were unexpected heavy raining days during your week visiting Maui, hopefully weather will be better when you visit our island next time. Mahalo, Luan

AMAZING STAY!!!!!

Wow wow wow!!!! The view is just stunning. We saw whales and turtles up close right from the balancing. My family and I spent most of time and meals sitting on the balcony. The 2 futons in family room were very comfortable for my 2 kids that don’t like sleeping together. It was very spacious for my family of 4 and my parents. They also have a small beach where you can swim off of and snorkel. The host Luan is amazing! He was always available and responds right away with any questions we had. He fully stocks the condo with Things you may need like toilet paper, garbage bags etc. He is so kind and readily available for you! The location was also fantastic. We could walk to multiple restaurants. I walked everyday to a local market and had my delicious Açaí bowl. Yumm! I highly recommend renting this unit. We can’t wait to return!

Aloha Michelle, Mahalo so much for the "Wow" review! It was truly a pleasure hosting you and your family at Makani Sands. I am thrilled that the layout worked so well for your group of six—those futons are definitely a favorite for giving everyone their own comfortable space! There is nothing quite like having those family meals on the lanai while watching the whales and turtles put on a show right in front of the building. We would love to welcome you and your parents back anytime. Until next time, aloha!

Exceeded our expectations in virtually all respects

The condo is in a terrific location, right on the water with the sound of the waves rolling in, near lots of good restaurants, excellent supermarkets, nice beaches, and other attractions. The condo itself is lovely, recently updated throughout, and comfortably furnished. The beds were quite comfortable. There is also air conditioning in each of the rooms, if needed, though there is good air flow through the condo. There is a swimming pool, as well as access to the water just off the patio area. There is no sand beach as such, but good wading and swimming upon entering the water down steps from the patio area, at the foot of the seawall. Our host, Luan, deserves special mention. He was very welcoming, anxious to please, and always available to answer questions, by text, phone, and in person (which proved useful in helping us master the slightly complicated cable TV system -- there are large screen TVs in each room). The only issue we had was construction noise (updating the lovely patio area), but that was due to be completed the week we left. In sum, it was a great stay, and we would not hesitate to return in the future.
