About this property

Beautiful Oceanfront Views! Enjoy Hotub, Grill & 3 Lanais!

Located in South Maui along the shores of beautiful Makena Bay, the Makena Bay House is a private, two-story residence located in an island paradise. The Makena Bay house's size and location make it an ideal choice for couples looking for a tropical getaway!

Built in 2005, The Makena Bay House has all the modern conveniences for a care-free vacation. The ground floor has an outdoor cabana that features a sitting area, a TV with DVD player and VCR, a wet bar with refrigerator, a gas BBQ grill, and a full bathroom. The washer and dryer are also located downstairs. The heated outdoor shower and hot tub are in a perfect spot to enjoy a gorgeous Maui sunset.

Upstairs is the main interior living area. Large sliding glass doors open to two decks, one off the kitchen and one off the bedroom, with views of the neighboring islands of Molokini, Kaho'olawe, and Lanai. The master bedroom has a queen sized bed to comfortably sleep 2 people. The upstairs interior has many special touches including vaulted ceilings, granite throughout, bamboo floors, upscale faucets, and accent lighting.

From the property, you can watch turtles in the surf just a few feet away and during the winter months you can see humpback whales as they migrate along the coast. Some of the islands best diving and snorkeling are directly in front of you. A clear night will treat you to amazing star gazing. You can enjoy Maui's finest restaurants as well as world-class shops and spas in Wailea; golf, tennis, and pristine beaches are close by. Makena is considered to be one of the more beautiful areas of Maui and there's no better place to experience Maui than the breathtaking, peaceful setting of Makena Bay House!

Makena
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

Magical, spectacular A plus plus
This is a majestic location, right on the oceanfront, gorgeous views of the ocean, sky, lava rocks, birds singing and beauty everywhere. The cottage is updated with everything you could ever want and more. The bed was so comfortable, plenty of drawers and closet space, wonderful kitchen fully equipped with everything you could want. We felt at home. The peace and beauty of nature lives in us now. Best VRBO/Air B and B we have ever rented!

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.

Paradise
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…
