Top Makena Hotel Reviews

Maui Coast Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a 1 night staycation. Noelle took care of us at the front desk, she was absolutely hands down the best ever!! We were trying to catch Haleakala Sunset and were strapped for time. She was able to accommodate our early check in request. Everyone at front desk were super helpful. I loved the property, not a huge resort, I love that everything was close by. No waiting in long lines for elevators or having to walk a half a mile to the pool. The cafe was super good, demolished the Cinnamon rolls..lol. 10/10 highly recommend."
