My husband, 5 year old daughter, mother and I just stayed at this gorgeous property in Paia! The home is spectacular, even better than the photos if you can believe it! We enjoyed the amazing ocean view every day and ate every meal outside soaking it all in! Great to have a pool and spa to start and end each day! The kitchen was well appointed and everything was very clean and comfortable! We were able to several see sea turtles every day just by going out the back gate and sitting on the steps. Wonderful location, walked into Paia town to get food and visit the shops. Loved the Paia fish market and Flatbread Company for dinners. The Red Sand beach nearby was one of our favorites, as well as Twin Falls and Wailea Beach! Highly recommend and will be returning again!

This home is the perfect place for families on Maui. Paia is such a wonderful spot full of awesome beaches for kids and the town has a great amount of shopping and food and beverage. We rented bikes and had the very best week swimming in the pool, adventuring to nearby beaches and recharging while taking in the most breathtaking views from the patio. The indoor / outdoor living arrangements make this house so special and every amenity was available to make the week fun and easy. We will be back.

Our stay has been magical. The door openings onto the patio make the house feel open to the outside. The views over the bay are beautiful with the constant crashing of waves. We loved Paia as a rustic, not too touristy town, literally a two minute walk away. We loved our stay and the accommodations!

The property was lovely - private, beautiful, large, well-appointed - and was very convenient to shops, restaurants, and beaches. The rental company and property manager were very responsive and helpful!

Honestly this house exceeded every expectation we had. Our group consisted of my wife and I, our 17 year old daughter and her best friend, and our 20 year old son and his best friend. The house was set up perfectly for a group of our size. The rooms were great and each bedroom having A/C was huge! Literally everything was perfect. The pool and hot tub were great. The view of the ocean was incredible and there were sea turtles in the water right next to the house everyday. Management was fabulous and very helpful throughout. And the town of Paia is in perfect walking distance. We walked to dinner and lunch and getting coffee or breakfast everyday. When we come back to Maui we will definitely stay here again. Truly the pictures don’t do it justice!

Paia village is super nice at walking distance. House is very nice and widely built and the whole facade can be opened so you really live inside and outside and close to the spectacular scenery.

Fantastic location & property
Closer to town than we'd expected, but plenty private. The ability to walk to town was great.
The place is so nice we hardly felt a need to explore Maui, but it's easy from the central location.

More Cons than Pros
First the pros. The backyard and view are spectacular. The house is located within an easy walk (5 min) to Paia where there is several boutiques and restaurants. As for the cons, the house does not have central air conditioning. There are window AC units in 3 of the bedrooms, but they are very noisy (70db); too noisy to sleep. The main living area (kitchen, living room, dining area) has no AC, so you need to leave doors open. However, only 1 of the 5 doors had a functioning screen. The net result was lots of centipedes and lizards coming in and the main area being very warm. The beds are very soft and the toilet handle in the master bathroom toilet was broken and the toilet had to be flushed by pulling the chain up in the tank. We have stayed on multiple properties on Maui, and this was by the least comfortable. In its current state, we can’t recommend this property to anyone.

Stunning location with a great house!
We loved our time here. We only spent a week, but could have stayed forever. Each morning we sipped coffee poolside while watching sea turtles feed in the lagoon below. The beach was literally a 5 minute walk, and had a variety of wave strength depending on where you wanted to walk.
The house was great. All the appliances worked well and the furniture was comfortable. We rarely used the indoor furniture except sleeping, however, as we were ALWAYS poolside. The cross breeze kept the house comfortable, but there was air conditioning if needed. The only concern with families with little ones- the upper windows have easy to open screens and we worried our 2.5 year old would get adventurous and fall out. Easy fix with opening the house up for the day and closing at night for safety- but something to think about with the littles!
The town is cute, a few shops closed- likely due to effects of COVID, but I think it will rebound nicely as tourism is definitely returning to the area. We found everything we technically needed in walking distance, but did take a few short trips to larger stores to buy in a bit more bulk.
Thanks so much for the great property, we are hoping to return soon.

Heaven
My sister lives in Paia and we wanted a place to stay close to her with our two small children. This house was heavenly. Stunning views, impeccable architecture and design of the interior and exterior. Everything was perfect. A short few minute walk to town, groceries, shopping. We will definitely be back!

Perfect
This is without question the best house of its size on the north shore. It may not be possible to find another within walking distance to Paia town that is both on the water and has a pool. Amazing views of Paia Bay and perfect check-in / property management. One of our best vacation home rentals ever.

A great comfortable stay in a great location- close to everything but far enough away to escape
Thanks so much for letting us stay in your home, it was absolutely perfect. We especially enjoyed the pool and the outdoor living, at night we were able to escape to the air-conditioned bedrooms with comfortable beds. Such a great set up in a perfect non-crowded beach town. Thanks again.

The location and proximity to town was wonderful. Loved the views and sounds of the ocean.
Couldn’t give 5 stars because the house was very hot most of the time because no central A/C except for bedrooms. There also was an issue with, what Norm said, was termite dust coming from A/C unit in one of the bedrooms and leaving a dusting on the bed. We would consider this property again

Wonderful house in Maui!
We had a amazing stay. The house was wonderful and location were very good. It's hardly been clear at all. It has mostly just been raining. But it was nice house and town, I had a fun and comfortable time there. I strongly recommend this property.
Thank you to the kind support of Maui Vacation Properties.

Simply the Best!
I have rented this house twice and will undoubtedly be renting it again. This is truly a spectacular home with every comfort imaginable. My good friend and his family will be renting it next month based on our recommendation. We enjoy the location and proximity to Paia and all of the wonderful local dining options. On departure day, it is not easy to leave this view and the sound of the crashing waves behind. We have stayed in five or six different homes/condos on Maui and this is simply the best we have found!

Wanted to stay longer
The house was amazing. We liked how close the house was to the road to Hana, so we were able to see a lot of sites in that area. It also was a pretty easy drive up to Haleakala. We had the opportunity to see the beautiful sunrise and then afterwards had breakfast at the Kula lodge. The Old Lahaina Luau was fun. To be honest, our favorite thing was just lounging in the backyard listening to the waves, looking for turtles, and watching the surfers. I wish we had spent more time just laying in the backyard. We also liked Charlie’s a lot. We ate there three times. Our daughters developed a fondness for the horses that were across the street. Everything about the house and location was wonderful. We were very much upset when it was time to leave and our kids just keep saying, “Couldn’t we have stayed there for three weeks?”

Absolutely wonderful
Makani Akau was just absolutely wonderful. Excellent location, views, house, pool – everything!
We had a lovely time and would love to plan to come back next year but at this stage not sure when. We would definitely like to return to the house when we do.
We did the early morning 630 am Kanani Kai snorkel trip to Molokini Crater. I would definitely recommend that trip. The timing was awesome as we beat the crowds and the staff were wonderful.
Anyway thanks again ever so much for allowing us to leave late. This really made our experience even more wonderful.

Favorite house on Maui
It's with mixed feelings that I write a review for Makani Akau as part of me wants to keep it secret so that it'll be available for us whenever we visit Maui, but the truth is that it's the perfect house on Maui. The sunsets are what inspire movies, the location couldn't be more convenient for exploring everything that Maui has to offer and the house itself is the perfect combination of beach luxury and usable features. The inside/outside living makes it the ultimate family get-together as everyone feels cohesive no matter where you are in the house. One person can be in the kitchen, one on the living room couch, another outside lounging, someone else in the pool and there's still direct communication lines between all four people/spaces. At the same time, if you crave a tropical moment of peace, all you have to do is pop out to the hot tub or into one of the four peaceful ocean view bedrooms. There are no gates for the pool and there's no ability to heat it, so all kids need to be watched and the water temperatures are noticeably chillier than the ocean. The upstairs 'family room' is a bit odd, but if you have a family of four, it's perfect (parents have some privacy, while two kids get their own beds & little play area). The downstairs en-suite is stunning, but not very private with any curtains open as it overlooks the yard and pool, but those are very minor inconveniences. The house is stocked well (beach towels, cooking supplies, etc) and the locked gates make the house feel incredibly safe. We spent a divine week-long family holiday at the house and nobody wanted to leave. The words 'best holiday ever' were uttered more than once, by everyone involved. The layout, location and luxuriously usability of Makani Akau makes it my favorite house on Maui.

Fantastic Stay!
We had a fantastic stay! The house was perfect and we'd love to reserve for next spring. I need to confirm dates.
We enjoyed being able to walk to Paia. Dazoo was a nice dinner option and the kids loved walking in for shave ice and shops. The 5 minute walk to the beach was great. Turtles feeding constantly right in the bay in front of us was fantastic.
We enjoyed Nuka and NorthShore Zipline in Haiku very much. Loved being closer to Ulupalukua Ranch and your lovely Upcountry, in general. The farm table dinner at Market Fresh in Makawao was a memorable highlight.
We've been to Maui nearly 20 times and this was the best stay, hands down. The home and the location were just fantastic.
Also, really appreciated the car rental reservation. It was a far better value.
Thank you, thank you. We can't wait to return!

Absolutely loved our stay at Makani Akau!
We absolutely loved our stay at Makani Akau. The property, the house and the location are spectacular and set the stage for one of our best vacations ever. We were soaking up the Paia Aloha spirit while we were there. Mahalo for the great recommendation and the excellent service that we received, in particular from Norm and Vanessa during our stay.
We will be coming back to Maui, but do not yet know the dates. We will certainly contact you as soon as we know so that we may secure our accommodations.
We of course loved the usual places:
Café des Amis
Lunch at Mamas followed by tide pools with the kids after
Watching the surfers and the turtles daily
Running along the beaches all the way to sugar cove
Tortillas for tacos and enchiladas
The wine shop around the corner
The ahi poke at the Shave Ice place.
Yoga Shala
Mana Foods
The incredible boutiques in Paia.
Baldwin and Baby beaches.
Greatest new discoveries for us:
Heading up country to Makawao, great little shops and restaurants like Pillos and Market Fresh Bistro.
Nuka Japanese restaurant in Haiku
Even though the restaurants are great, we loved cooking in the gourmet kitchen and dining in. When we needed a break, we sometimes ordered from a restaurant and brought it back to the property because we loved it there so much.

Amazing vacation home!
Thank you very much for your professional service and warm hospitality! My family and I had a great time in Maui. We all love the house so much! It is modern with beautiful furniture. It is clean and very comfortable to accommodate a big family (6 people).
We love to cook, and very happy with the kitchen. It is great and well equipped. My suggestion to the people don't mind cooking by yourself is that even renting a house is more expensive than renting condos but you do save a lot of money by cooking by yourself. At same time, you make sure you have high quality of food and a nice family dinner time.
The pool and hot tub are great after surfing in the beach at Paia which is just 5 minutes walk. It is wonderful watching the surfers from the living room when you get up in the morning and it is beautiful watching sunset when you are swimming in the pool in the evening.
The house is far away from touristy areas which provides nice village feeling. At the same time, it is only 20 minutes driving to airport and large shopping mall. It is the place you can fill up gas and buy food when you do Hana drive.
We definitely to return the house when we have holiday in Maui again.
