5147 Makena Rd 5, Kihei

Papa’anui is more than a homesite—it is a sanctuary where the ocean meets your doorstep. Imagine waking up to the smell of salt air, the sound of waves, and views that capture the vastness of the ocean, Molokini Crater, and Kaho’olawe. This is Makena every day, offering premier views that change with the light and seasons.  This nearly half-acre property is one of the last homesites of its kind in Makena, offering direct coastline views and immediate access to South Maui’s waters. It is the perfect location for world-class water sports, including paddle-boarding, kayaking, snorkeling, and diving. Papa’anui offers a life lived in rhythm with the ocean: quiet morning paddles, afternoons snorkeling among vibrant reefs, and winters watching whales breach just offshore. While secluded, the property is only a 5-minute drive from world-class dining, championship golf, and scenic hiking trails.  This is a place to create a life shaped by beauty, calm, and possibility.
