Mana Kai #203 is Maui Living at its best! We could talk about the ocean and sunset views all day but you won't get it until you experience them for yourself. Situated on the popular grass area at Keawakapu Beach. Take a look out of the lanai slider door for some of the most beautiful ocean and sunset views. During whale season, relax on the lanai and view Humpback whales slapping and breaching just yards off shore. Snorkeling is just a few steps away and you can see sea turtles snacking on the seagrass in the rocks from your private lanai.
The interior of this cozy condo has been lovingly updated while keeping that beachy resort feel. Improvements include bamboo cabinets in the kitchen and hall, stone counters throughout, tiled showers with spacious vanities in both bathrooms, stainless kitchen appliances and ductless AC throughout condo.
The primary bedroom can be left as an open studio or separated from the living area via Shoji pocket doors. You'll find a plush king bed, ceiling fan and lanai access in the main bedroom along with en suite bathroom with walk-in shower. Guest bedroom also features King sized bed, ceiling fan and en suite bathroom. This room also has a desk/work area, television and grand floor-to-ceiling windows for plenty of natural light.
The kitchen is fully stocked with all you will need for meals at home: silverware, serving utensils, pots, pans, plateware, blender for smoothies and frozen drinks, toaster and coffee maker just to name a few items.
The resort atmosphere includes an oceanfront pool, 4 propane BBQs, onsite coin/credit card operated laundry facilities on each floor, a fitness center, 808 Deli and General Store, and open-air dining and full bar at the ground floor Restaurant coming late 2025. You can also rent beach gear and bikes at the Surf Shack Maui, conveniently located on the ground floor.
The full dining restaurant on property will be closed for renovations until late 2024-early 2025. Renovations have been delayed. When they commence, there may be noise heard from 8 am-5 pm, Monday thru Friday. We do apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you and appreciate your understanding.
Please be aware that all Mana Kai units feature a primary bedroom that is an ''open concept'' and is not closed off from the living room area. This particular unit has installed sliding shutter doors for added privacy.
While we strive to keep all photos up to date, there may be new and updated pieces of furniture or decor that are different than in the original pictures. The functionality, available seating and sleeping space will remain the same or may improve.
Mana Kai will continue construction and maintenance effective immediately, including essential concrete repairs near the lobby and restrooms, as well as preparations for the new Beach House at Mana Kai restaurant by Handcrafted Restaurants (Peter Merriman, known for Monkeypod Kitchen, Merriman’s, and others). While we do not have a full schedule or end date yet, work will take place on weekdays from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, with no activity on weekends or holidays. Guests may experience some noise and temporary restroom closures during this time. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to welcoming you.

Decent accommodations with a perfect beach location and access. The property was a bit dated and undergoing some renovation work while we were there, but overall a positive experience. I would definitely consider staying at the property again if visiting this area.

Condo needs a little renovation. Mold on sliding bathroom doors along with a few other things. Replace the can opener

The location was awesome. Access to beach-it was right outside the door. The pool was perfect too. The unit was clean and in good condition. Yes, there are a couple small paint repairs needed on the walls and the carpet could use an upgrade, but it was clean and these things did not cause any issues. The bed was comfortable. The balcony was amazing with its views over the ocean. We could not have been happier and would stay here again.

This property is a gem, and I don't think you can beat the view - Molokini and another cinder cone to the south are rad. You can't beat this location. Being able to walk out onto the beach and having a huge lawn was clutch. Saw a rainbow wrasse snorkeling too. Mahalo!

Our family loves this property and this was the 2nd time that we stayed in #203. It was very clean upon arrival and suited all of our needs. What a wonderful view it has to walk out to every morning when you wake up! Directions for check in and check out were sent in a very timely manner and the entire process was easy and efficient.

Waking up to the sounds of the waves and sunrise from the window was such a great feeling. The view of looking down semi private beach in front and the mountain in behind was beautiful. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony for breakfast. We like Kihei area being very casual with local island residential feel. This complex is located in the best area of Kihei.Just note that it is not a regular 2 bed rooms. The master bedroom is not a separate room, but there is a slide door separating it from the living room if needed. Not a problem for us.Overall we enjoyed our stay very much.

Best location, Best beach! We felt like locals in the know here. Walking South and Walking North along the beach brought adventure and beauty every day. Uber & Lyft rides to shopping centers are short and cheap from this location. You can walk to the Boat Docks where some of the snorkel trips load and unload from. (We went on the Express Molokini by Blue Water Rafters. Highly recommend!) Also next to the boat dock there is a secret cove where every eening we saw sea turtles resting. We kept a safe and careful distance from them of course. Loved this unit! Having a separate rooms from our kids was sooooo worth it!
