We had a great week-long stay at Menehune. This unit accommodated our family of 5 (3 adults, 2 little kids 4/5) nicely. We stayed in a different unit last year so we knew what to expect space-wise but the other condo was a bit nicer. Despite what other reviews mentioned, the stove/oven worked perfectly and we were able to cook meals without any issues.
The location is amazing. The beach is steps away. The biggest storm in 20 years hit the islands during our stay, but we didn’t notice much except that the water was too murky to snorkel and the winds/waves were stronger than what we remembered from last year. Otherwise we would have been snorkelling with turtles since they hang out in this area. Another major plus is that there is a sea wall on one side of the beach perfect for blocking the big waves and shallow enough for toddlers to stand. We didn’t spend much time there last year because the waves were calmer but this year it allowed us to have more beach time. It’s also very close to a lot of amenities with a restaurant on site.
We love this location and hope to stay again next time we’re in Maui.
