We recently (Saturday) returned from a 2 week vacation with 11 days at this property. We found the property on VRBO and read numerous reviews here. Well they are all TRUE! The Mana Kai is a terrific facility with one of the best beaches in all of South Maui. Best beaches if you like something slighter wider and longer than... more

Our family (wife, boy 16 and boy 14) stayed at the Mana Kai for three nights prior to moving up to Kaanapali to the Marriott Resort. We had a two bedroom at the Mana Kai. It was the most "Hawaiian" place we imagined on Maui. The rooms were more than large enough for us and the kitchen was great to... more

In no way would I recommend this hotel to anyone - upon booking via internet - was assured of clen - attractive - ocean veiw room - ended up in room that left a lot to be desired - couldn't walk around bed without turning sideways - windows broken and coudl not open - upon alerting staff was told "for... more

I am sosooooo very glad we decided on the Mana Kai Maui. I would not recommend the hotel room, but the 1 or 2 bedroom condos have the best view and you get an amazing breeze. We loved listening to the waves crash all night. We were never too warm or too cold ... it was perfect! The beach is... more

We arrived at the Mana Kai April 26th and stayed for 5 nights. We are a family of four (kids aged 18 and 23). We had a unit on the top floor, was recently renovated and very nice (kitchen and floors could have been a bit cleaner but not horrible, we did comment this to the rental company we dealt... more

Our first trip to Maui...and at the end of the week we did stay at the Grand Walea...my girls (14, 10, 6) would all say they liked the Mana kai better! Rent the ENTIRE unit and you get two bedrooms and two baths. The lanai doors stayed open the entire time. It was wonderful to go to sleep with the... more

We stayed in a 2 bdrm, 2 bath unit #212. It was clean, although a little outdated (30+ years old). There had been some renos done to make it comfortable. The views from the lanai were outstanding. We watched the humpback whales everyday from our lanai. The 5 palms restaurant on site had great food, although a little pricey. There... more

I am surprised when I read reviews of people comparing this condo complex to their stay at the Fairmont in Wailea. You can't compare a condo to the Fairmont - it's not the same. The Maui Mana Kai was a terrific property for the price and is one of the nicer condos in the Kihei/Wailea area. They did a really... more

We booked a hotel room at the Mana Kai Maui thru Expedia. Expedia gave me alot of conflicting info about the deposit, type of room and every time I called, I got a different story. I was worried that when I got there, I might not have a room. We arrived at the Mana Kai Maui rather late and checked... more
