• Please do not stop on the Lahaina Bypass to view or take photos of the burn zones. Lahaina Town is off-limits to anyone who is not a resident or essential worker authorized to be in those zones.
• Please do not ask people about their homes and families. If they want to share their stories, they will offer them. If not, please respect their privacy.
• Some businesses are not yet re-opened; others have modified hours and services.
We welcome you and appreciate your patience and kindness during these challenging times.

I didn’t receive the email with the code to get in the place until after we arrived. It made for some nervous moments, not knowing how to get in. The place is awesome right on the water. All amenities were appreciated. However, the bed frame was very loud it kept hitting the wall and making noise and the other amenities were kind of weak soap and paper and things like that we’re kind of wimpy.. A big problem was the Wi-Fi was terrible. I had a Zoom meeting that I could not do because the Wi-Fi was not strong enough. I have stayed in these units before and I never had a problem until now. Also because of the bad Wi-Fi we could not watch TV without it buffering
My partner and I visited for 10 days mid/late April 2024 and had a great time. The location is perfect and within walking distance from many amenities. The property is very clean and had amazing views, with sea turtles stopping by daily. We'd definitely stay here again if making our way back to Maui.

My husband and I were supposed to visit Maui and stay at this VRBO in September 2023, but when the Lahaina fire happened, we had to reschedule for 2024. We were so happy to be back on the island. The condo was wonderful, and we loved the location. Unfortunately we had to end our vacation early due to a family emergency back home, but we hope to be back again soon.

We stayed for a week, this unit was nicely renovated kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, furnishing. The condo has tiles instead of carpet and that is a big plus for us. Being able to sit and watch the waves and have your coffee first thing in the morning was dreamy. We will be back.

Beautiful Maui!!
We had a fantastic time at Makani Sands. The condo was beautiful and extremely comfortable. The condo was well stocked with everything you would possibly need. The out doors was magnificent. The views of the water and neighbouring islands breath taking. The tiki torches at nigh just added to the ambiance. Can't wait until, we are able to come back. Truly a great location and condo.

Mahalo Makani Sands for providing a perfect home base during our Maui vacation. Situated on a private spot of beach between major vacation resorts and pointedly decorated inside & with toys for outside play, this vacation rental had it all. We could come and go as we pleased walking to most spots due to the condo's proximity and because of the amenities we ended up spending down time at the condo too! Our Maui vacation was tremendous. Mahalo Makani Sands!!
