It was a great place, the only problem was the air conditioner as it was on the fritz, the owners went out of their way to accomadate me with a stand alone conditioner in the bedroom. Overall it was a nice stay

Great property, amazing views
This is a great property in Makena right on the water. We spent the days outside watching the turtles swim and boats coming in and out with guests wanting to snorkel turtle town. The makena beach park is less than 100 yards from the house and beach access even closer. What a great place to snorkel or just watch the waves come in. Some of the warmer days we turned the air on in the bedroom but the rest of the house didn’t need it and it’s really handy to be able to do that rather than cool the entire house down. The owners provide everything to need for a beach day so no need to by a cooler or water toys/gear, it’s all here. The place is perfect for two or a small family with kids. Two full baths and plenty of room to have a space of your own outside. There is no oven but the microwave is convection so you can even cook a frozen pizza in it so no problem. Love this place and highly recommend due to the location, private parking and privacy in general. Wonderful hosts. Thank you.

The location is absolutely breathtaking. The place was beautiful and comfortable. The owners were very nice and responded to any questions or concerns we had. The house manual had great information for throngs to do and shopping nearby. It was tropical paradise and we didn’t want to leave. Anyone who wants a nice secluded place with privacy to enjoy a special occasion would love this place.

Wonderful!
This is so worth it! It’s difficult to leave to go do things, to be honest. But, if you have to leave, the place has everything you need for a beach day, several of which are super close (short walk or drive). Short drives to grocery stores with anything else you might need. Great communication with owners! Loved it - will hopefully get to be back. Our thoughts and condolences remain with all those affected by the wildfires…

Amazing Second Stay
Luckily this was our second stay at this AMAZING property on the Bay in Makena. The house is clean, unique, and fully stocked for an extended stay. We love all the patios and the outdoor space downstairs— including the hotub that has a great view of the ocean. The house is tucked away and very private. The neighborhood is nice and a short drive to resorts and restaurants. The communication with the owners is easy and prompt. We would love to stay again in the future.

Wonderful place to stay!
This home was an awesome base location for our 7 days in Maui. The place was very clean and the host was a superb communicator. Best of all is the location. Awesome ocean views from the upper deck and the grassy area. The place is also outfitted with all the toys - beach chairs, beach umbrella, boogie board, many sets of fins and snorkels, big beach towels, etc. We really like staying in the Makena area. It was away from the hustle and bustle of the big resort areas and huge condo complexs. Yet we were able to easily walk to nearby beaches. I completely recommend staying here and would do so again on a future trip to Maui.

Perfect Maui vacation house - turtle town
Makena Bay House is oceanfront with amazing pano ocean view of the bay. It’s right next to the Makena Landing, with abundant coral reef, fish and turtles on both sides. We snorkeled in the bay and swam w turtles every day. South Pacific Kayaks drops off kayak rental right there. We rented one for half day to kayak up to Wilea, saw several turtles swimming next to us.
The house was stocked w everything you need. I used the life vest, snorkel gear, reef shoes and fins. We had breakfast and dinner on the lanai every day watching the morning light and sunset, listening to birds chirping.
The outdoor shower and hot tub makes cleanup and relaxing convenient and scenic. We have been to Maui five times. This was the best time we had here. Cannot wait to come back!
