Very convenient location, easy access to most of our favorite spots on Maui - south, central, north, and up country Maui, Unit was very well appointed with top of the line appliances and furnishings. Plus pantry was stocked with all that we needed.
Totally recommend this unit in north Kihei. There were great amenities and the owner was very responsive. We used the grills on the rooftop while watching the sunset - what’s not to like?

Glad you had a great time at my condo. I've always enjoyed the location, central to everything! And the views are spectacular!
Absolutely awesome place to stay. So centrally located, an unbelievable view & overall perfect place. We thoroughly enjoyed our week & wished for more time to stay!
The penthouse condo had an amazing view and was centrally located in Kihei. We enjoyed the pool, adjacent beaches and local restaurants. The condo had everything we need for a great stay with our family. I would definitely book this place again.
The room and location within the facility was great. The beds and pillows were comfortable as was the living room furniture. The kitchen is well appointed with all the basics, including some pantry staples, plus some general condiments in the fridge.Very close to local dining spots and only a few miles from two local grocery stores.Access to the beach, plus a protected jetty area where the sea turtles liked to hangout is literally behind the facility. You're steps away from the beach which was fantastic!The manager/owner of the property was wonderful, provided amazing information for the rules of the facility, plus great local spots to visit. Our family had a fantastic time and would love to come back soon!
We had a wonderful visit. The condo was perfect for our needs and we had an ocean view. The property owner has thought of everything and the location is very well equipped. Overall highly recommended.

I 😘 be my view too! I'm here right now enjoying it with my first cup of coffee.
This wonderful beach front condo was like staying at your family or best friend's. We felt right at home and enjoyed every minute of it. Everything from the kitchen to the bedrooms, the beautiful Lanai and our hosts made this place 5 stars for us. The amenities were top notch. We highly recommend and would stay again.

Thank you! That's just how I want my place to feel.....like you are at home or a friends house. I want my guest to be able to relax and enjoy there stay with out a lot of hassle! I hope you will visit Maui again soon and stay at my condo.
I have stayed in many condo situations, and this unit was the BEST supplied and most comfortable I’ve ever experienced. The kitchen is stocked with anything and everything you could ask for (even tiny drink umbrellas)! It is right off the elevator (convenient) on the top floor with good views that would be great except for all the palm tree heads. The host is easy and quick to respond in all situations. Menehune Shores is an amazing property with a unique rooftop patio that offers picnic tables and barbecues with additional grills down by the pool; easy beach access and a shallow swimming area enclosed by a stone walled breakwater; a restaurant on site; and grocery carts for unloading your many groceries! Did I mention it is also close to all Kihei has to offer? This is a winner all around!

About the host
Hosted by Chris Cernik
I have owned the condo since 2011 after having travelled the world. Maui was supposed to have been our retirement home, until life took another turn. I now enjoy visiting Maui as a working vacation. I take pride in keeping the condo update and well supplied for my guests.
Why they chose this property
When we bought the property in June of 2011, I wanted to make it tropical and homey. I outfitted the kitchen as I would of if I was living there, and I love to cook, so I am constantly buying new items for the condo. We have collected a wide variety of staples that reside in the condo. We like to encourage our guests to use them and feel free to leave your leftovers for the next guest.
What makes this property unique
I provide a well-supplied condo. Most guests comment that they have never stayed at a vacation condo that is so well supplied. I have every kitchen gadget that I could find and stock lots of the basic supplies like spices, baggies, aluminum foil, dishes, pots and pans, etc. If someone tell me that they didn't have something they needed, it will soon be there!
Additionally, for those of you that follow Maui politics. Menehune Shores in not on the Minatoya list. This means Menehune Shores is not in danger of losing our short-term rental status
