Makena Beach & Golf Resort, building in Makena district, next to Wailea
Makena Beach & Golf Resort is a seaside resort on Maui that sits on a large property with accommodations, a golf course, and direct access to the beach. The property combines hotel buildings with recreational facilities along a stretch of the island's southwestern coast.
The resort was developed in the 1970s and has since become an established destination on Maui's southern coast. The property expanded over the years and integrated various recreational facilities around the beach area.
The resort sits along a wide sandy beach with good swimming and snorkeling conditions, especially during calmer months. Visitors should know that the area is primarily for hotel guests and public access may be limited.
The property features one of the quieter coves on the southwest coast, often calmer than other well-known beaches on the island. This relative seclusion makes it interesting for visitors seeking less crowded shores.
