No other condo on Maui can beat this beachfront location and upscale modernity mixed with Hawaiian beachfront chic. Full remodel finished in December 2023.
Located in the oceanfront B Building, the entire unit faces outwards over the Pacific Ocean through a fifteen foot length glass door. The first thing visitors say is, “oh god, it looks exactly like the pictures. Wow.”
Through the door, the lanai has a view that makes even the locals say, "wow." Even the professional pictures I had done don’t do the experience justice. You will fall in love with it instantly, it is truly amazing.
The lanai is the perfect place for you to relax and find peace watching the ocean, easily spot whales playing in the Pacific, watch the unobstructed sunsets, and stargaze and relax. You can also bbq under the sun from the privacy of your own lanai, which is rare on Maui.
In front of the condo is Chang’s beach, more commonly referred to as “turtle town.” If you take a snorkel tour of South Maui, those boats will likely take you to these shores to experience some of Maui’s most lively snorkeling. You will see turtles if you snorkel here, they are everywhere at Chang’s. Many guests have taken themselves on their own whale watch trip by paddle boarding in the morning. (Paddleboards and Kayaks are not provided, they must be rented).
Walking back through the lanai, the condo provides its own luxuries. A modern and comfortably furnished living room is the perfect place to spend your morning eating breakfast while listening to the ocean waves crash. The kitchen is fully equipped for you, while the BBQ is also only steps away from the dining room.
The kitchen, dining area, and living area were all recently furnished and remodeled in the Fall of 2023. The furniture is a mix of classic brand names and has incredible style.
Each bedroom has its own separate full bathroom.
Not to miss a game or an episode, the living room also features an entertainment center with a 65 inch Samsung LED SmartTv as well as an Roku, a Bose sound bar, and a "take one, leave one" book library. Both the living room and bedroom TVs have cable and RokuTv.
Just out the front door of the B Building are a heated pool and hot tub exclusively for guests of the Makena Surf B building, perfect for floating in the sun or soaking your body after a day spent on the sand. Adjacent to the pool are two well-maintained tennis courts, pickle ball courts, and a tropical garden. Four tennis rackets are provided, as well as tennis balls. Tennis lessons and clinics are also available during certain periods. Pickleball set is also provided in the utility locker.
The condo has an activity locker that is loaded with all the beach and leisure supplies you would want in Hawaii. There are complete sets of adult and children’s fins and snorkels, boogie boards, pool noodles, four tennis rackets, pickle ball set, children’s beach toys, beach chairs, beach umbrellas, and some other nicknacks left behind by prior guests.
The condo kitchen is fully stocked as if you had lived there for several years. It is ready to handle all of your cooking, baking, and BBQ’ing needs.
If you have any questions, please ask. I am glad to act as a concierge to guide your reservations to the best restaurants, boating services, spas, and hidden local gems. There is also a welcome book with much of this advice in writing. ...

This condo is a beautifully-appointed and decorated 2-bedroom, 2-bath unit with a fantastic view of a very nice semi-private beach in the Makena/Wailea area. The unit was probably better equipped and stocked than any rental unit we have ever stayed in. Multiple coffee makers, a wine fridge, beach cooler and an activity box full of beach and sports equipment were just a sample of the may amenities available and at the ready. There was a fairly private shared pool and hot tub right behind the building, as well as 2 tennis courts. The location of the complex was very convenient to the Wailea area restaurants and also to the Kihei town shopping and restaurants. Peter, our host, was very friendly and accommodating and was easy to contact via text. He provided a guide notebook in the unit with information and critiques of the area activities, restaurants and hotspots. Thanks so much for providing such a wonderful place to stay and enjoy our week in paradise! We hope to come again soon!

This was our second stay at Makena Surf, and our first stay at this unit. It was wonderful - nicely renovated, wonderfully appointed kitchen and the unparalleled views from the third floor of an ocean-front building at this complex. We will be back!

We have come to Maui many times, but this is our first time staying in Wailea. The property was updated, clean & comfortable. The beach was right out front and a refreshing pool right behind. It is suitable for 4 people. One note would be the 3 flights of stairs to some who may have challenges with that. Also, there were 4 remotes to work the main tv. Thats a bit overwhelming! Once we got the hang of all the entry & gate codes, we were set. Close enough to walk to some of the larger resorts and restaurants in the area. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks for sharing your lovely property!

Property was immaculate. One of the few properties we have stayed at that claim to be fully stocked and really are. The bar, the kitchen, beach amenities. Apartment was spic and span, super comfortable and well appointed. The property itself is right on the beach, with hot tubs, pools and tennis courts. Apartment has beach chairs, umbrellas, tons of tennis and snorkeling gear, kids games and books, coolers, ice packs, etc.
Super easy to communicate with Peter, our host, but didn’t really have any issues that came up!
Will definitely be returning. Mahalo Peter for such a great stay!

The location of this condo is as good as you can get in Maui. We usually stay at the Fairmont but the beach here is much better and quieter. We stayed for a month and would love to have stayed longer. Peter is very responsive and helpful. The unit is well appointed and very clean. The views from the patio are as close to the beach as you can get with remarkable sunsets. I wish I was still there!

At first there was some hesitation over a couple of the reviews. But Peter assured us everything was taken care of. He even sent updated photos and a video to me personally. We have stayed at Makena Surf many times. His property, by far, is the best that we have seen.
We had no issues at all checking in. Easiest process ever.
The condo was immaculate. Everything looked even better than the photos.
Everything you will need is provided. Internet worked great and had good speed. A/C worked great and kept us cool. The kitchen was well stocked and had most everything you may need.
The guest bathroom showerhead needed to be replaced. Not only did Peter call me back immediately, but offered to fix it that night. He came first thing the next day. Shower works great!
We didn’t have any other issues.
When we decide to return to Maui, he will be the first person that I call. Great to work with and the condo was wonderful.
Thanks again Peter!!

The place was located in Makena with beautiful view of ocean. It was in an excellent condition and quiet. The host was very accommodating. We are hoping to stay there again next year. Mahalo.

If beachfront location and view are your main criteria, this condo is for you! In addition to location, we chose this property because of the lovely interior photos on VRBO when we booked and which remain online now. But the living and bedroom furnishings were very different from the beautiful photos and not to our taste or comfort. The closet doors were removed to reveal oversupplied linens and toiletries, which should have been stored off-site. The master bath photo had a window with a view of the ocean, which had been replaced with a wall. And cleaning supplies and equipment were stored in view on the lanai, in the living room and bathrooms - not what we expected for an expensive property.

Absolutely stunning balcony/lanai to whale watch ( and we saw lots everyday!), and amazing sunsets as well. We spent lots of time out there for dinners and drinks. Beach access was great and pool and hot tub was nice. Bed were comfy and condo was well equipped.
