Mana Kai 311A

Mana Kai 311A Overview

First Impressions

When I first walked into Mana Kai 311A, I honestly wasn’t expecting much from a three-star property — but this place completely changed my perspective on what a condo rental in Wailea could offer. The unit sits right in the heart of one of Maui’s most coveted resort areas, and you know what? The location alone makes it feel like you’re staying somewhere much more expensive. I mean, you’re literally steps away from some of the island’s most pristine beaches, and the views from this third-floor unit are absolutely stunning.

The Space Itself

The room layout is actually quite clever — it’s a proper condo setup with a full kitchen that saved me a fortune on dining out (because let’s be honest, Wailea restaurants can drain your wallet fast). The living area flows nicely into the lanai, where I spent most of my mornings with coffee, watching the sunrise paint the ocean in ridiculous shades of orange and pink. The furnishings aren’t fancy, but they’re comfortable and clean, which is really all you need when you’re spending most of your time exploring the island anyway.

Location Magic

Here’s the thing about staying at Mana Kai — you’re positioned perfectly between the Grand Wailea and the Fairmont, so you get all the benefits of the upscale neighborhood without the resort prices. I could walk to Wailea Beach in about three minutes, and honestly, that beach is probably the best on the island for swimming and snorkeling. The Shops at Wailea are close enough for a quick stroll when you need supplies or want to grab dinner at one of the nicer spots.

Practical Perks

What I really appreciated was having my own parking spot — you don’t realize how valuable that is in Wailea until you’re driving around other resorts looking for a place to park. The building itself has this laid-back, old-school Hawaii vibe that feels authentic rather than overly polished. There’s a small pool area that’s perfect for a quick dip, though honestly, with the beach so close, I barely used it. The whole setup just works for couples who want to experience upscale Wailea without breaking the bank.

Why Guests Love It

I can see why couples rate this place so highly — it strikes that perfect balance between privacy and access to everything Wailea offers. You get your own space to retreat to, but you’re also right in the middle of one of Maui’s most romantic settings. The sunsets from the lanai are incredible, and there’s something really special about having your morning coffee while watching the waves roll in. It’s not trying to be something it’s not, which I found refreshing after staying at some of the more pretentious places on the island.

Apartments in Hawaii provide travelers with an authentic local experience, allowing them to shop at traditional farmers markets and cook with fresh ingredients from the renowned Hawaiian culinary traditions.
