About this apartment rental
Welcome to our luxury beachfront hotel zoned condo, Unit 519 at Menehune Shores – where every detail is designed to make your Maui vacation unforgettable. From whale watching on your private lanai to sipping your favorite drink as tropical breezes dance through the space, this is the kind of magic that stays with you for a lifetime. Whether you’re enjoying your morning coffee or unwinding with a glass of wine in the stylish living room or on the lanai, this is your moment to relax, recharge, and soak up the island vibes.
Good to Know: We’ve recently upgraded with engineered laminate wood flooring and installed air conditioning in both bedrooms and the living room to keep you comfortable on those extra warm days in paradise. That said, we highly recommend opening the windows and sliding doors to fully embrace the natural trade winds and the soothing soundtrack of the Pacific. After all, that’s why you’re here.
About Menehune Shores – Oceanfront Bliss in Kihei
Menehune Shores is an oceanfront gem tucked into a quiet, low-density area of Kihei, just 20 minutes from the airport and perfectly positioned between Maalaea Harbor and Wailea.
Enjoy easy access to:
• A protected swimming and snorkeling beach just steps away
• The stunning Sugar Beach – a 5-mile stretch perfect for sunrise strolls or sunset wanders
• A heated oceanfront pool and BBQ areas surrounded by lush, tropical landscaping
• A rooftop BBQ & dining area with panoramic views of Haleakala, Molokini, Lanai, and the West Maui Mountains
***DISCLOSURE 6/4/26:
Menehune Shores will be engaged in a site wide roof replacement project beginning June 8, 2026. The construction project will be executed in three phases, progressing from the North third to the middle third, and concluding with the South third. While access to picnic tables and BBQ grills will be maintained during the initial two phases, these areas will be closed during the final phase. Future updates will be provided regarding section completions and roof accessibility. Mahalo for your understanding during this disruptive but necessary project. We do not currently have an estimated completion date.
It’s a front-row seat for whale watching (in season) and picture-perfect sunsets every evening.

10 / 10Outstanding·May 2025
The property was exactly as pictured on Vrbo. Unfortunately the water isn’t as picturesque as most of the other parts of the island but we were able to drive to many of the other beaches. I would highly recommend this unit.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jan 2025
Very well appointed and managed condo. Perfect location on the beach. Beautiful view from Lanai. My family of 4 loved our stay here and highly recommend.
8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2024
This is a lovely property. Beach is walkable but really need a car for grocery & dining out. Issues ( now resolved): We were confused getting in with code as we tried key box but needed to use touch screen. We arrived on a very hot day so needed AC. Unfortunately the unit in oceanfront bedroom was broken. We had 3 maintenance visits until repaired on our final day—thankfully it cooled off so couple in front bedroom only had one bad night. While AC was desired, and floor fan provided the second night, it was not relaxing to us to have to deal with on vacation. Also promised replacement of dining chair didn’t happen…not a big deal but more of a communication issue.
6 / 10Average·Oct 2024
If I could give a 3.5 I would. Here’s the rundown.
1. It’s old and a little outdated. If you don’t mind outdated furniture and carpet-ignore this part. The positive-all appliances seem new! Also, old doesn’t mean dirty! Everything was clean.
2. The patio has an air handler on it (not pictured). The very hot air and noise makes the patio nearly useless. BUT-without it the condo would be unbearably hot, so it is what it is.
3. Ants. I messaged the property manger about the situation and she said it’s a tropical area and just comes with being here. She prefers to not use harsh chemicals and the pest control company was just there. Well, spend 5 minutes in the kitchen and you’ll see that this is more than a small issue. We had ants on literally anything left on the counter. They are in the cabinets and drawers. Found them in our water bottles, my purse, I mean it when I say everywhere. Gross.
Now, with that, we were only there 2 nights. There is no way the issue could have been fixed for us. The property manager was responsive and was in no way rude, and we are in an old building in a tropical environment. This is probably just a common issue, but is a big no for me. This is the reason for bumping to a 3 star instead of up to a 4.
Overall-great location, affordable, well stocked, and responsive host. Just an old condo with some extra Hawaiian character.
