215 Mana Kai can be rented as a one bedroom condominium or two bedroom condominium, or as a hotel room. Each unit has High Definition color cable TV, DC very low voltage and extremely quiet ceiling fans.

The one or two bedroom condominium has a fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher and private ocean-front lanai.

The hotel room is garden view, without lanai and kitchen. Hotel room 215B has greater privacy than most other hotel rooms in the building because it is an end-unit without a walkway in front. In addition, it is sound-proofed.

[toggle title=”Location” open=”no”]The Maui Mana Kai is located at 2960 S. Kihei Road on the border between Kihei and Wailea. Click here for map.

It is on Keawakapu Beach, which many locals call the finest beach on the Island of Maui. Most days, especially in the morning, the water is flat and perfect for snorkeling just 150 feet from your room. Later in the afternoon, if the wind picks up a bit, small waves form which are perfect for boogie or body boarding.

Just head down to the beach. Forget something? In one minute you are can walk back home to pick it up!

Golf at nearby Wailea, Makena and Silverwood courses.[/toggle]

[toggle title=”Climate” open=”no”]Sheltered from the prevailing northeast trade winds, Kihei averages about 4 inches of rain per year. The “rainy” season is December through March. A long period of rain might be five minutes. I hope that is OK?

Normally skies are bright, clear and sunny in the morning with occasional clouds sheltering beach goers in the afternoon. Winds are light or non existent in the morning and pick up to light winds in the late afternoon as the uneven heating of the water and land occurs. Near sunset the wind dies down again. Kihei is sheltered from the trade winds by the extinct volcano Haleakala. Temperatures range from approximately 70 to 85 degrees in the day, and 65 to 75 at night depending on the season.

But be sure to wear sun screen as the you are nearer the equator and closer to the Sun[/toggle]

You can walk to them just down the beach and smile, as you know you are staying at a better equipped facility for a lot less money. You can even cook something if you want for a lot less money and it is quieter. If not, you can eat at the hotel facilities.[/toggle]
