Makena Oceanfront Home 3 Bedroom/3 Bath 1/2 Acre Lot On The Ocean

Gorgeous home on quiet Old Makena Road with West-facing ocean views from every room.

Slip on your beach shoes, walk down your 40 foot dogleg to the left of your front lawn, step over small rocks, and swim with the turtles at our private ocean access. It is just a short walk to sandy beaches on each side of our home.

Beautiful sunsets every night from our private half-acre lot on the ocean.

Breeching of humpback whales can be seen just off-shore in winter months.

Three-bedroom 2250 square-foot home has been decorated with Hawaiian style art, teak furniture from Bali, and newly remodeled kitchen. Each bedroom has its own full bath.

Luxurious master bedroom with ocean views from your king-sized bed. Second bedroom has a queen-sized bed. The third bedroom has two twins that convert into a king.

Wifi included, with a desk in the main room, and the third bedroom can be used as an office.

Missionary founded church is two doors down. Ideal for destination weddings.

A slice of Heaven

Makena Makai is a beautiful, quaint home with views that won't disappoint. I enjoyed snorkeling with the turtles each morning. The owner/manager's are easy to speak with. We had no issues throughout our entire stay. (November 16-23, 2024) I would love another opportunity to stay at this wonderful place. ❤️

Relaxing Makena Retreat

Our family had an amazing stay at this superb property in Makena. Secluded and private yet a short drive to amazing restaurants and shopping. We saw sea turtles every day and snorkeled in the clear water off the back yard. Truly a gem and a perfect family vacation!

Peace, quiet and amazing sunsets in beautiful Makena

Our family of 6 loved our week at Clark and Sue's house in Makena. The location could not be better and we were truly able to unwind and feel at peace. We watched whales everyday. We snorkeled right in front of the house or at the beach just up the road. We walked down to Maluaka beach at sunset. Every other day we did an excursion, but always looked forward to coming back to the house to relax. We cooked a few dinners and lots of breakfasts in the very well-stocked kitchen...wish we had cooked more dinners there! We loved hanging out on the patio at night with only the tiki torches to give us light. It was magical. Highly recommend!

Amazing Location!!!!

I have been to Maui several times and have always enjoyed my stay at the resorts, so this was the 1st time at a home and it did not disappoint! Incredible location in the heart of turtle town and the house was simply stunning in its ambiance and proximity to the best snorkeling around, PERIOD!!! Loved Sue and the commutation.

Stunning location, responsive hosts and property manager

Our family truly enjoyed our stay and would gladly return if ever staying in Makena again. The home was so welcoming that we barely had any reason to leave. We spent most of our days enjoying the views, spotting sea turtles and whales, and walking a few minutes down the road to the nearest beach. Other great spots are just 5-15 minutes away. Stuck on an earlier time zone, we got in the habit of rising before dawn to sip coffee/tea and watch the stars and planets, which was quite nice. The overall atmosphere is incredibly picturesque, to the point of being poetic, and zen. The home itself is not an austere, modern, slick home, more of a homy home, showing its age in some parts, but this was fine for us, and convenient in fact as we were able to borrow beach toys for the kids, pots/pans etc for cooking a few meals during our stay, and otherwise feel at home. It's clear this was a well-lived and well-loved family home and it was nice to learn about some if its and the family's history and connection to the surrounding area in the home guide book. Both Clark & Sue and the property manager were very responsive and helpful, and the property manager accommodated us checking in an hour early when we unexpectedly found ourselves arriving early.

Perfect place for a Maui vacation.

Beautiful property in a perfect location. Whether as a launching point to see all the sights of Maui or a spot to just sit and relax, this home is perfect. Beautifully maintained with attentive management, we couldn't recommend this home any more.

Great property and a wonderful stay

Our family stayed here in late March / early April of this year. The setting is second to none and there were few things more relaxing than sitting and the table and enjoying the sound of the waves. The property was fully stocked with everything you could ever need, including boogie boards, beach towels, and chairs. Sue was wonderful throughout the process and we would definitely stay again.

Amazing property!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! There are snorkels, fins and water shoes available for use right out the back door. We saw the turtles every morning and enjoyed the sunset over the ocean from the back yard every evening. The location is private but close to shopping and restaurants. I highly recommend this property.

If y’all are looking for a shiny new place - this isn’t it. If you want an epic location on the water in Turtle Town - this is the spot. We sat for 2 weeks in the backyard and enjoyed the “private” Bay. Cute old home.

Love it! All great! This is the second time we’ve stayed here and it’s the perfect place to make memories: great family meals prepared in the kitchen with a view, snorkeling, kayaking, sunset revelries, peaceful evenings when all that is heard are the ocean, crickets, and starlight.

Location location. Location!

Our family had a wonderful stay at Sue and Clark’s home. We have stayed in the area before but our family has grown and we needed a bigger oceanfront vacation spot. This was a quiet place with literally the best snorkeling and paddling on the island, we are so grateful for the experience. We’d love to come back & Sue was very easy to work with. Mahalo!

Dream Spot

What a beautiful home and beautiful location. I love this part of Maui, and to top it off, finally got a chance to stay in a quiet neighborhood tucked away from the busy-ness of the rest of the island. The house itself was super spacious and accommodated our group of 6 really well. Kitchen was nice and big and the drink bar was also a huge hit with the guests. A beautiful beach just a few minutes walk away. Thanks again Sue and Clark - we can't wait to come back!

Most Amazing Place in Maui!!!

We and family have been several times in Mui, but this place is the best by far. It is all about location, location, location. It has everything you can dream about in a great vacation: hammock, grill, outside table etc. Access to the beach right in the back yard with amazing snorkeling with turtles everyday. A place that snorkelers are paying to travel with boats all day. Close to a nice mall and beaches, some in walking distance. We told all our friends and they are planning to rent the same place as well as we are are planning future visits again. Awesome loved it and can not wait to come back!

Makena Makai Week

My family of six adults spent a week at Makena Makai. There were lots of positives about our stay. The setting is gorgeous. We enjoyed a number of dinners on and gorgeous sunsets from the patio. There was plenty of room for six people and the house was well stocked with beach equipment and kitchen condiments. It was awesome to have an outdoor shower to use after snorkeling with the turtles in the water right by the house. We enjoyed mangoes from the front yard tree. A few things could be upgraded/fixed, but didn’t interfere with our enjoyment of our stay.
