We spent five nights during our spring break at the Makena Surf condo and loved every minute of it. The pictures are a great representation, but don't really do justice to this gorgeous view. I enjoyed having my Kona coffee out on the patio each morning to the sound of the surf and the stunning view across the bay. The condo is well appointed and missing almost nothing (boogie boards might be nice; we purchased a few ourselves at the store). The office lends tennis racquets out to those who want to play but didn't bring them along, which was fun for our family. Beds are very comfortable and we slept soundly. The absolute highlight of this location for us is the amazing snorkeling. We paid for an excursion that went out to Molokini, but honestly it wasn't really necessary. There were many turtles every time we snorkeled right at the south end of our beach, and even more around the point, along with countless colorful fish. You could also hear the whales underwater. It was really a treat! Being away from the heavily trafficked and touristy parts of the island was a big plus for us. It was fun to visit Lahaina or go for ice cream at Lappert's in Wailea, but we liked being away from the hustle and bustle of those areas yet still easily accessible to them. Beautiful hiking is nearby just past Makena along the lava fields and oceanfront, where the road ends. Communication from the team at Alii Resorts was timely and complete and we didn't have a single issue. Would happily recommend this place!
