Wailea/Makena Beach area

Wailea and Makena are quite different, although they are neighboring communities. Wailea is basically a "bedroom community" of high priced condos, townhouses and homes, some lavish Hotels and a few expensive restaurants thrown in. It has a beautiful beach, but finding access to it can be a challenge. Look for small signs on the beach side indicating walkways to the public beach, usually with secluded parking lots across the street. Makena is a belt shaped community of intermittant beach homes, stretching South along Maui's coast. Beautiful views, beaches and snorkling areas await you there. Mekena essentially follows the old King's highway, which was the old stone road used by the ancient Hawaiian's for traveling around the island. You can still see parts of it at the end of the paved road past Makena.
