  Darrell M from Renton, Washington recommends this vacation rental

  Beautifully situated in a walkable and centralized area. End unit with privacy. Didn't think we'd need the a/c in February but we did use it in the bedroom to get quiet rest from the street noise and because we sleep hot anyway. It wasn't too terribly bad. You have to expect that from multi-family buildings. The views however, were spectactular. The amnities were great. We didn't use the pool but it was a nice alternative to the ocean. All newer appliances and everything was operable, except for the ceiling fan in the bedroom but we were fine since we had the A/C. Most of all the staff was wonderful! We greatly appreciate the warm hospitality and will DEFINITELY come back and pick this same exact unit. Our dates haven't opened up yet but we will grab them the second they do. Don't miss out on this unit or this entire facility (if you have a larger group). Thank you Tammy for all your help and we will see you again soon!

  I was in paradise at Makani Sands! The view from the living room was absolutely amazing. Having coffee on the lanai every morning and watching the waves splash against the seawall was breaktaking. I can't wait to return to my home away from home.

  Paul and Dawn L from Oak Harbor, Washington recommends this vacation rental

  We have stayed at Makani Sands in #201 a handful of times ...definitely it has become “a home away from home”. The unit is perfect for the two of us, and the A/C is ideal for relief from the intense heat. The kitchen is adequately supplied, however, it could eventually use some newer cookware. The owner has indicated plans to replace the sleeper sofa in the living room, which would be another awesome upgrade. We must say, Mahalo to Tammy, Debbie, and Rick, all wonderful overseers of Makani Sands, as well as Mahalo to Mariano and his team that provide housekeeping service to Makani. Also, we highly recommend Mala Ocean Tavern for top notch food and service. Planning to book again several times in 2025, our favorite place on Maui, Makani Sands!

  Home away from home is how we feel about our time in Maui. Makani Sands completes that feeling. It has everything to make your stay comfortable while enjoying the beautiful view from the lanaii of the ocean, sea turtles, and sunsets. Last stay was in #201, end unit. Our favorite so far. The grounds are kept immaculately. Tammy the manager is wonderful. She treats
  you like family and excels to make your stay memorable so you want to return again and again. It was our 3rd visit in four years. Aloha

  Laura H from MORGAN HILL, California recommends this vacation rental

  Waking up to the ocean view was incredible! The property was quiet and peaceful after all our sight seeing around the island. I really appreciated having the cooler, beach chairs and boogie board. Bed was comfy and the air conditioning worked great in both the bedroom and living room. We swam or snorkeled every day in front of Makani Sands and we saw turtles every day. Great location, great trip!

  Staying at Makani Sands is always the perfect vacation. We love how this property is direct oceanfront. Our favorite thing to do is hanging out on the lounge chairs and enjoying the gorgeous view. It’s always amazing watching the green sea turtles swimming by. #201 is our #1 pick of the condos. We love the beachy decor, and it’s so nice to have A/C. The new motorized sunshade is wonderful in the living room. As soon as we walk in the door, relaxation takes over. It really feels like home. Tammy is the most awesome manager, too! We can’t wait to be back.

  Second time staying at Makani Sands and it is by far one of the best places to stay in Lahaina. Clean, quiet, spacious. Walking distance to great food. And of course the private beach access with a vibrant reef and several sea turtles that are always present.

  We have stayed in Makani Sands #201 multiple times ...wonderful every time. Several updates since our stay only 7 months ago were appreciated: new sliding patio doors vs. the old worn out, plus an awesome new microwave! We love Makani Sands, #201 especially ...we’ve booked for two more stays in 2024! The only flaw is that #201 needs a conch shell to blow at sunset!

  No complains at all here. Property management was very friendly and was able to extend our last day departure check out. Very clean, quiet, updated condo. Can't beat that sound of the ocean in the morning. Bed very comfortable. I would highly recommend this. If you ever near the area try goin to the food trucks near by, the food is amazing.

  Joseph D from San Mateo , California recommends this vacation rental

  Everything was great, weather, staff, and the condition of the condo. The only part that we didnt enjoy was the motion camera light in both the hallway and deck. They came on constantly and would ruin the ambience of watching the evening stars. It needs to be adjusted or taken down. Not sure what purpose it serves.

  We just returned from an amazing 8 night stay in Makani Sands #201 and we already wish we were back! This was our fifth vacation at Makani Sands and it was incredibly relaxing. We love the decor and split air conditioning in this condo. Since it’s at the end of the 2nd floor hallway, we also appreciate the extra privacy. The views are stunning and the location is convenient to Lahaina and Ka’anapali. Tammy and Debbie were helpful as always. We cannot wait to return and we will continue to book #201. A hui hou!

  We have stayed at Makani Sands every year for the past 28 years. We always stay over the New Years holiday and into early February. Some years we have also stayed in the summer or fall. We love being right on the ocean for the view, watching the whales, turtles and hearing the ocean sounds... We see the same people each year from different states and Canada. These people are our “Maui family”. We look forward to seeing them and spending time together.
