Makena Surf - Destination Resorts Hawaii

Great location and wonderful facilities. Two bedroom we stayed in was beautiful. The only slight drawback was that both of the bathrooms were showing wear and tear in the paint and tile grout; otherwise the remainder of the unit was in excellent shape and well equipped for our stay. Would go back to Mekena Sufrt Again!

The Makena Surf condo was well equipped, w/ great views and sunsets. Loved the beaches and pools! Would definitely stay again!

We felt like we were being watch by the staff. Felt like we had no privacy at all. Our second day the front desk called and said they came over and did a walk through and notice that they were more than two people staying, and they said that the unit was rented as a one bedroom even though the unit has two bedrooms. I was very upset about them spying on us an accusing us of that! I told them that we had some friends over late and we were drinking and I didn't feel comfortable for them to drink and drive so I had them stay. Since then I notice the security and staff watching us constantly day and night!... A horrible experience !! Will never go back or recommend this place!!!

Our stay in unit C 201 was fabulous. The unit was very neat with wonderful view. The closeness to the beach was great for early morning walks or time playing in the water.

I can't speak to every unit in the Makena Surf, but ours was spectacular. Extremely well remodeled, well maintained, with an incredibly luxurious master bathroom. Having a condo with 2 bedrooms and bathrooms was very convenient for our family of 4. We ate breakfast at home and packed lunches to take to the beach. The pools were very clean and not very busy the majority of the time. The beach adjacent to the complex is fantastic, and again, suprisingly vacant during our summer vacation. Destination Resorts was pleasant and easy to work with. I wouldn't hesistate to go back to the Makena Surf at any time in the future. I almost don't want to give it such a good review, I want to keep it all to myself! Shhhh! It'll be our little secret!

We lived in G202. Friendly staff and great oceanfront location. Unit is fully functional with 2 bedroom, each with a full bath. Rooms are well decorated, including the family room. Unit is equipped with a full kitchen, dryer and washer.

If you want to feel like you are the only people in Maui, then this resort is for you. Such an amazing experience. Quiet, except the people above us who stomped around *all day*, but that isn't the resort's issue, just people being clueless. I have a feeling I could have asked the resort to speak to them, and they would have, since they reiterate maintaining a "quiet, relaxing environment" and have specific resort rules around respecting other people's space (keep tv's low, don't yell, kids to behave in the pool area). I wouldn't consider this a child friendly environment if your kids are *energetic*, but if you are looking for quiet, mellow, relaxed, and not crowded, then this is the place to be.

Love the place! The grounds were very nice. Inside, our room could have been updated, very 70's. Also, you have to check in at Destination resorts, which is no where near condo. Then they will give you a card key to get into gated community. If you have a lot of luggage there are Large wheel barrows to use. Our room faced the ocean and was beautiful. They have BBQ's to use with fresh potted herbs to use. Wonderful !

I can't say enough about G101 at Makena Surf. Arrived on 4/16/2013 with son, daughter-in-law, sister, 18-mo old toddler and myself for a nine day visit. Nice master with king bed and in suite bath, plenty of room for full size crib. Guest bedroom had queen bed, and there was a pullout hide-a-bed in the office. Beautiful corner ocean front unit on ground floor. Full lenai overlooking little lava beach. Private gate to beach was just steps from the condo. Condo plenty big for all of us to spread out. New tile floors throughout, paint and kitchen cabinets as well as kitchen appliances. TVs in both bedrooms and big screen in family/living room. Nice sized dining room. A/C throughout. Unit fully equipped and we did not need to buy anything but food. Toddler did very well in unit. Housekeeping staff and manager Roxanne took good care of us. It was a perfect family vacation. Two pools were great as was jacuzzi. The beaches are amazing! Beautiful sand all the way out and snorkeling with the turtles was fun. Water warm. Great view of Molokini and all the snorkel boats come to snorkel. Saw two beach weddings on little beach--more on big beach. A lot of wildlife. great herb garden that you can use. Very relaxing family vacation. We would definitely like to come back. Thank you Makena Surf.

Great condo... awesome location for snorkeling. Not a lot of shopping near condo.
