About this apartment rental

Perched right where the waves meet the shore, this oceanfront haven in Wailuku captures Maui's magic from every angle. Through soaring windows that stretch from floor to ceiling, watch whales breach during winter months or catch the sky turning pink at sunset, all from your living room's plush sectional.

Step into your personal paradise where three miles of untouched shoreline become your private playground. Here, the morning light invites you to wander along pristine sands that feel worlds away from the usual tourist trails. From December through March, your lanai transforms into a front-row seat to nature's grandest spectacle - majestic Humpback whales dancing in their ocean playground.

Behind this oceanfront haven lies a treasure of adventure gear, thoughtfully stocked for your island explorations. You'll have everything needed for perfect beach days: four premium beach chairs for sunset watching, snorkel sets to explore vibrant reefs, boogie boards for catching waves, and even a fishing pole for those dreaming of the catch of the day. Pack your tropical finds in the provided beach cooler, grab some floating noodles, and you're set for endless coastal adventures.

The sparkling community pool offers a refreshing alternative to ocean swims, surrounded by swaying palms and tropical blooms. Find your perfect sun-soaked spot among the thoughtfully placed loungers, or retreat to your private balcony for moments of peaceful contemplation.

Adventure seekers will appreciate being just minutes from Ma'alaea Harbor, home to the famous Maui Ocean Center and launching point for unforgettable ocean excursions. When wanderlust strikes, you're perfectly positioned - 20 minutes to the beaches of Kihei and Wailea's world-class golf courses, 15 minutes to Kahului's convenient shopping at Costco and Walmart, and a scenic 30-minute coastal drive to Ka'anapali and Kapalua's legendary shores

The space brings the outside in, with tropical-print curtains dancing in the island breeze and a private lanai where morning coffee comes with a side of paradise. You're close enough to hear the gentle lapping of waves against the sand - your own slice of beachfront just steps away.

The kitchen offers ocean views to enjoy while preparing meals, and the living area, with its high ceilings and ocean vistas, becomes your personal retreat. After a day of beach combing, sink into the king-sized bed in the master suite, where tropical-inspired artwork and furniture create a serene escape. The second bedroom offers a queen bed wrapped in cool cotton, perfect for friends or family joining your island adventure.

Your private balcony serves as your personal observation deck - ideal for spotting sea turtles in the crystal waters below or watching the West Maui Mountains change colors as clouds dance across their peaks.

Beyond your doorstep, the Makani A Kai complex offers a BBQ area - perfect for grilling fresh-caught fish while trading stories about the day's adventures.

After days filled with island exploration, unwind with modern comforts including high-speed WiFi and cable TV, though you might find the ocean's endless dance more captivating than any screen.

This isn't just a place to stay - it's where you'll write your own chapter of Maui memories, with the rhythm of the waves as your soundtrack and the warm Hawaiian breeze as your constant companion.
Tucked along Maui's northern shore, where gentle waves kiss pristine sands, this stunning 2-bedroom oceanfront retreat offers front-row seats to nature's greatest show. Welcome to your home at Makani A Kai, where every sunrise promises new adventures and every sunset paints the sky in impossible colors.
