Great Ohana Celebration!
Our family with three adult children and all of their spouses and all of our grandkids, ages 2-14 stayed during the Holiday 'break', 2023. Everything we wanted and needed was right there. Comfort in the house, in the yard, a place to jump into the ocean for the best snorkeling in Maui, a turtle beach within feet of the house, and a small, public beach within 2 minutes walking distance of the house. Plenty of adventure within our little paradise of a property. This is our third time at Makena House. The first was when my son married a Maui girl and arranged for us to stay here. Paradise for the entire Hallagin Ohana!

Ultimate Oceanfront View
My cheeks hurt…from smiling! This is the real “Turtle Town.” Also plenty of whale sightings. No need to spend money for snorkel and/or whale watching cruises. Stay at this older house to really enjoy Maui as it used to be: no road noise, no high rise buildings in sight! Thank you, Helen!

Great house for multiple families
The house is perfectly situated on Makena Bay if you love snorkeling. It is right on the water with the most amazing views. I loved that each bedroom had it's own bathroom. One drawback was that one of the bedrooms has a single and a trundle bed which isn't ideal for a couple. Helen was very responsive and sent me back a make up case I had forgotten. We had a hitch in the beginning but it was settled amicably.

About the host

Hosted by Helen Luuwai

Host profile image
Married into the family of this stunning property in the late 1950s. Raised our 3 boys on Maui and worked in local government for 14 years.

Purchased the property from a family member and have operated our piece of paradise for 15 years as a vacation rental.

Please see the family history information on our website.

Why they chose this property

One of last properties owned by a Hawaiian family and has been passed down through the generations since the late 1870s.

There are stunning views of Molokini and Kaho'olawe islands and sometimes Lanai from the property.

Our family's roots go back over a hundred years and we operate this vacation rental in order to continue our family's ownership of it and to make it available for local cultural events as well as our visitors from around the world.
