We rented this property for 5 nights during the Christmas break. We loved how it was out of the hustle and bustle of the typical Maui tourist areas. Very quiet on a residential street, with excellent privacy. We were lucky as the citrus trees on the property were producing excellent fresh fruit that we enjoyed. The pool is the perfect size to enjoy and the sunsets out the back windows were tremendous.

Great property all amenities needed, and the fresh fruit from the trees was amazing. Fresh juice each day, fresh grapefruit each day and even avacados....amazing experience.

The property was lovely, from the fruit trees and the yard and pool to the expansive interior. It was perfect for cooking large meals, relaxing poolside, and taking in the sunset, and the kids were endlessly entertained by the pool, games, and giant yard. The weary parents even managed to get some rest. It was a lovely stay and we would definitely book again.

The house couldn’t have been better equipped for 8 adults and 3 littles ( 5, 4, 2) . Also well equipped for beach excursions. Ten minutes to Lahaina for boat excursions and 15-20 to Kaanapali and Kapalua. Nice to come back to beautiful pool relax, and watch sunset after dining on beautiful lanai. Magnificent!

I had my son and Daughter along with each of their families for a total of nine people. The house was perfect. Great pool and hot tub. We all had a fantastic trip in part because of this place we stayed at!

The property is great and the checkin process was easy. We loved the location and the pool and spa. We did not use one of the bedrooms which adjoins the master bathroom. This would be ideal for a child but I think maybe why 8 people is a maximum even though there are technically 5 bedrooms.

We had a great time and look forward to coming back in the future.

Our stay at this Launiupoko property was a great experience. It was our first family reunion with our adult children since Covid and it was important to us to have a special place to stay. Importantly, the house and grounds were as described in VRBO and we were pleased with many aspects. Some highlights for us were: 1. Ample space and bedrooms for our party of 8 2. Clean 3. Good beds and bedding 4. Fantastic outdoor space with pool, jacuzzi, dining area, grill, abundant tropical fruit trees, and amazing sunsets 5. Convenient access to restaurants/shops/marina in Lahaina and Kaanapali. 6. Close to beautiful west Maui beaches for snorkeling/surfing. 7. Well equipped kitchen stocked with basics that you will need. 8. Good HVAC - cools well and in reasonable time when afternoon sun heats up the house. 9. Very secure in quiet neighborhood with gated access We have stayed in VRBO properties throughout the world and overall this is one of the best homes we have stayed in. Kudos to the management team.

Tina the Property Manager was very responsive and we appreciated her making contact in advance of our arrival.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

Our family of nine LOVED our stay at Makena Aloha Estate. We searched long and hard for just the perfect location for our multi-generational stay. Even though we were here amidst what became the beginning of the global coronavirus pandemic, it was relatively easy to forget about the world's fears and relax in this amazing location. Our children loved playing in the orchards and of course the pool, and we all enjoyed the delicious bounty of that orchard. The view is amazing and the neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, but you are only 15 minutes from pretty much everything Lahaina has to offer. Our grandparents were able to stay in Makena Cottage and come and go from the frenetic grandchildren's action as they pleased. The property is stocked with pretty much everything you need. Even little touches like having a WiFi accessible printer where we could take care of boarding passes or other little things were great. Last but not least, the manager Tina was a joy to work with. We didn't have any *problems* to report really, but we connected here and there to discuss the logistics of various things and a few questions. She was always extremely pleasant and extremely responsive via texts, which made things easy. For that matter, all the staff we interacted with during the process of booking and preparing for this trip were extremely responsive and helpful. We would absolutely stay at Makena Aloha Estate again. My only hesitation in writing this review is that my positive comments might make it harder for me to book the property in the future. But, in this case they absolutely deserve it, so I'll take my chances!

Our family (and friends who are family) all stayed on the property for 2 weeks. This trip was to be our first family vacation; where my wife and I were to have our wedding on a beach at sunset with our kids and family and closest friends all attending. Let me say Makena Aloha made it SO SPECIAL! This beautiful property was perfectly maintained and so private it gives the soul a place to really relax. Unlike a hotel or condo here you can really breathe deep relaxation here because of the solitude. The area is amazing and the view is ok but the gardening has grown up a bit since the pictures and makes the view hard to see unless standing. We loved the house like it was our very own and was very respectful of the owners furnishings and amazing opportunity to stay there. The kids and adults alike were almost sick with the thought of leaving. This is truly a magical place! It’s much more than a house it’s an experience that reveals itself to you in a thousand different ways as you spend time there. I can speak for my whole party who stayed there. WE FELL IN LOVE

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was the best family vacation EVER! Our family of 10 adults and 1 toddler enjoyed every moment. The house was beautifully appointed and very clean. We were greeted by Tina M., the property manager, who was available throughout our vacation to answer any questions that came up about the house or where we could find the best pizza. She was super responsive to our queries. The house and cottage had everything and anything we needed except the groceries and libations. :) The beautiful pool and spa were used daily by our crew. Our 18 month old grandson was very comfortable in the house. Everything that was needed for a little one was provided. The location was amazing, just up the road from the Launiupoko Beach and close to Lahaina with so much to see and do. Whale watching was a huge hit for everyone. We played golf in Kapalua. We zip lined with Skyline Eco-Adventures near Haleakala. Highly recommend! Our crew had an amazing adventure. We truly enjoyed Fleetwood's on Front Street in Lahaina for sunset dining, as well Mala's on Front Street was excellent. I highly recommend this property for family gatherings! Mahalo.

If you are looking for a larger home in Maui this is a GREAT option. Located just a few minutes south of Lahaina, just up the hill from Launiupoko Beach, a great beginner surf break. The house has gated access, pool, ocean views and excellent privacy. This property also has a main house...and a guest house making it perfect for larger groups. The main house has a total of 5 bedrooms (listing description was a bit vague so hopefully this will add some clarification) there are two rooms that have a queen bed, one room that has a bunk with double bed on bottom and single bed on top. The master has a king bed and the fifth bedroom is actually off of the master bath...that room is also a double bed. For someone that isn’t looking for complete privacy in the master the fifth room could easily be used for additional space. The guest house also offers two rooms each with a double bed and also has a pull out sofa sleeper, kitchen and bathroom with shower. The entire property is well kept, conveniently located on the west shore and is an excellent value. I would highly recommend staying here!

Its has everything like a hotel does (so you only need your clothes) but you can buy groceries and cook just like you were home! It has everything it states (including the fruit orchard), located up the hill from Front street, and the property managers responded by text to even the smallest thing (smoke detector beeping - came in an hour to replace the batteries). Loved the pool and hot tub facing the water... we spent plenty of time staring and dreaming!! We'll be back and I have plenty of nursing friends who have heard all about it and are going to keep it as an option when they visit next!! Excellent experience for our 3 generations... beds for everyone!! Can't say enough good.

One level ranch home made it easy for my elderly mother to enjoy. Close to beach. Boogie boards, towels, beach chairs and cooler supplied making it easy to enjoy the beach. Short drive to old town Lahina my favorite. Comfortable beds, well appointed kitchen. Enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The guest house was very nice and had an easy short path to the big house. Wish we could have stayed longer.

We have what amounts to a family reunion here with 4 families involved, 6 to 7 adults and 4 children. The family is easily and comfortably accommodated and this is an ideal location to explore and enjoy Maui.

This was an absolutely beautiful estate. We stayed here during our wedding in Maui and had an amazing time with some of our closest friends. The main house is spacious and the openness of the living areas was perfect for the gorgeous Hawaiian weather. The guesthouse was also a great addition for our guests to stay in. Everyone really had a great time and I wouldn't hesitate to rent from this place again

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: When arriving we were in awe of the scenery and views of the ocean, pool, trees, and other greenery outside. The cottage included was adorable but we didn't spend much time there. We were all in the main house and backyard most of the time. It was like looking around at heaven sent to us for a week. The manager provided excellent service for us and we were appreciative of her doing some breakfast grocery shopping for us before we arrived with a list we provided. Also thank you to both owner and manager for the new Keurig you obtained for our arrival. The property was very clean and well maintained and we would recommend it to everyone to rent. We enjoyed the Old Lahaina Luau, helicopter tour, pineapple plant tour, Sunday lunch at Longhi's and our grandson and parents loved the snorkeling and big tuna caught on their experience taking a boat to Molokini Bay.
