So you pass all the Fairmonta and the Maleas etc. and you arrive at this gem of a place called Mekena. What a beautiful place to call home for 4 nights. The service is awesome, the staff are mature and I credibly friendly and helpful. Our room was beach facing I Italy however there was construction work going on so... More

We loved the Makena Beach and Golf resort! On our honeymoon in Hawaii, we went to 3 islands and stayed at 4 different resorts/cottage rentals. The Makena was our absolute favorite. Not only was the room beautiful, clean, roomy and very comfortable, but the staff and service was impeccable. They have a "yes" mentality, meaning that for every request they... More

I am one of those obsessive types that researches the heck out of whatever I do. After 3 weeks of this sort of obsessiveness I decided that Makena Beach and Golf was the best choice on the island. It's nice to be right! Reasonable rates for a beautiful room with simple, relaxed, and attractive grounds and lots of nice perks... More

Stayed here after 3 days in Ka'anapali to get the feel for South Maui. More upscale area and hotel. Staff didn't seem as 'warm' as in Ka'anapali but service was otherwise great. The grounds are beautiful with multiple choices at the hotel itself for breakfast/lunch/dinner and bar. We had a package that included a breakfast buffet at one of their... More

My wife and I spent 10 days here and enjoyed every minute. We booked with Hotwire and had no issues with the check in process. Parking was plentiful. The location is perfect because it is the last resort on the coast. Next to us was the Ahihi National park which is a must walk/hike adventure. The Shops at Wailea was... More

We were extremely happy that we decided to stay at this hotel rather than some of the larger, more expensive ones to the north. The staff members were very competent and helpful, particularly the beach shack staff. We had a beachfront room that was large and well-maintained. The beds were comfortable and the sheets were soft (something my girlfriend always... More

We decided to stay at the Makena Beach and Golf Resort again this year, because we all enjoyed it so much last year. Even my two teenagers wanted to return. Once again, we were very pleased with every aspect of the resort and commend the professionalism, but also the welcoming attitude of all the employees. The ohana spirit is alive... More

The Makena Beach Resort was truly amazing. I knew we were getting a bump to a partial ocean view room based on the package we got with the travel agent but they ended up going a step further and giving us an ocean view room. It was on the side of construction of the condos next door but I can... More

Nice resort by put beware when booking through the website. They advertise advance pay purchase deals, with buffet included, but if you bundle it with airfare it puts it to Pleasant Holidays...and you don't get free buffet.we didn't realize this till first day there and front desk argued with us. Also upgraded to ocean front, 2 queens. We got a... More
