Serene Ocean-Front Condo at Menehune Shores - Unit 520 - Steps from the Ocean!
Aloha and welcome to Menehune Shores condo 520!
Enjoy the ocean breezes in our fifth-floor, ocean-front unit. Whether you are here for just a few days or a month, you’ll find everything you need: smart television, Wi-Fi, a fully stocked kitchen, and a private lanai where you can watch both sunrise and sunset. You’ll also have easy access to the rooftop deck—an ideal place to barbecue, take in 360-degree views of the island, and watch for the famous “green flash” at sunset.
Menehune Shores is a small, beautifully maintained complex with manicured grounds, a heated swimming pool, and direct beach access—just steps from the elevator. You’ll have the luxury of being right on the ocean while still only minutes from Kihei’s dining and shopping. Menehune Shores is hotel-zoned, meaning it is exempt from Maui’s pending 2030 short-term rental phase-out and will continue to allow legal vacation stays.
Our 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo includes a full kitchen, in-unit washer/dryer, and ocean views from the kitchen, living room, and makai (oceanside) bedroom. You’ll find all the usual conveniences—television, cable, and internet—plus parking for one vehicle.
While we do not have artificial air conditioning, refreshing trade winds flow naturally through the condo, keeping it comfortable. The only approved condenser would occupy the lanai and release heat that makes it unusable, so we’ve chosen to preserve this space for dining, relaxing, and enjoying the view.
Kihei is an excellent base for exploring Maui’s many attractions: the heights of Haleakalā (“House of the Sun”), Kula’s gardens and high country, world-class snorkeling, surfing, and windsurfing, historic Wailuku and ʻĪao Needle, and the breathtaking Hana Highway with its 57 bridges through lush rainforest. Or simply stay close to home, relax poolside, and enjoy the ocean just outside your door.
Mahalo for considering our home as your “home away from home” in Maui. For additional information, feel free to text Marianne at (909) 744-0700 (Pacific time zone).

Spent an amazing week at this awesome condo! Communication with our host was great and thorough. Tons of extras inside the condo (cooler, towels, frisbee, beach chairs) to make our stay extra comfortable. Everything was very organized!
Condo was in great shape, super clean, wonderful location and fully stocked with all the basic (and not so basic) necessities. Appreciate having beach towels, chairs and sand toys as well as laundry detergent, paper products and basic toiletries.

Thank you for being such wonderful guests, glad you had a great trip. Marianne and family
This condo is wonderful! The views were spectacular, and it was amazing falling to sleep at night to the crashing of waves. The location is perfect, the beach can be walked in both directions for quite a ways. Directly in front of the condo complex and to the north is a protected area frequented by sea turtles. It is a nice area to snorkel and watch them.
The beach right out front was ideal. Great location easy instructions for property. Lots of items to use at the property. Responsive owners/managers. Would definitely stay again.
We had a great time here! The unit was just as shown in pictures with a wonderful view of the sunset. The host graciously let us have a late checkout so we could get showers and laundry done before heading to airport. There's is no AC in this condo, so we probably would come back next time in winter when nights are cooler. Tried the on site restaurant our last night and it was really good!!!
Property was as nearly exactly as described in the post and the perfect launching point for our Maui trip! Almost anything we needed was quick drive away but some places could be walked or biked to easily. Pool was refreshing after days at the beach. Owners were very accommodating with a late check-out b/c of a late flight departure!
We had a wonderful time and spent a lot of time on the balcony. Beautiful location and the sound of the waves was peaceful. We would definitely come again. The house is fully stocked and great communication. Road to Hana is a must can ’t wait to come back ! Thank you
The place met our needs and all our expectations. It was clean and had everything needed. The roof top with the barbecues were an added nice bonus. We never did use the pool but it was nice to know it was there. It was quiet, easy, and close proximity to many places on the island.
We enjoyed everything about our stay here. It was clean, comfortable and well stocked. It felt like home as soon as we walked in. The location was perfect. We really enjoyed our time here. We hope to return to Maui and would definitely stay here again. Thank you for a wonderful place to enjoy our vacation :)

About the host
Hosted by Marianne Mabry West
This condominium was our father's home. Now his daughters and granddaughter continue to love this condo. The surfboard on the wall is his granddaughter's first and is very special to her. She is currently working in Florida, so not spending much time in Maui. The sisters get to come spend time occasionally. We hope you enjoy our condo as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
Kihei is a great location with excellent beaches and parks as well as shopping and restaurants. It is located across the isthmus from Kahului and the airport - close enough for convenience, far enough to be away from it all.
The unit has a comfortable layout with great ocean and beach views. It is surprisingly private for being part of a small resort. There are the small conveniences of in-unit laundry, trash chutes so you don't have to haul trash to the ground floor, a book exchange on the third floor, as well as the big items - the rooftop deck set up for barbecue-side dining while enjoying 360 degree island views and the best sunset in town, lovely pool and grounds, the trade winds, and of course, being RIGHT on the water without crossing the highway.
What makes this property unique
Kalepolepo Beach Park, Koieie Fish pond, Shuffle board, Heated pool, restaurant on site, free parking, roof top bbqs with 360 degree views, pool side bbq's, close to shopping and public beaches, centrally located for travel to all parts of the island
