The Menehune property is located in Kuau Point, a residential sea-side outcropping near Paia, on Maui's well-loved North Shore. It is a quick walk to the Kuau Channel for sunset relaxation or advanced windsurfer's launch to sail with the locals. Beginner and intermediate windsurfers can drive to Kanaha Beach, with sand, shade and lessons!! Traveling with little ones? Menehune House is a short walk over to the tide pool beach in front of Mama's Fish House. This charming “beach house” style home offers three bedrooms (1 king and 2 queen size beds) and two full baths along with a well equipped kitchen boasting a Viking gas stove and an island, great kitchen for sharing meals with your family! Open beam ceilings, original hardwood floors throughout, open flow between kitchen/dining/living. A/C unit in each bedroom and living room; ceiling fan throughout. The house feels reminiscent of Paia's plantation days!

The Menehune House features a small private yard and outdoor shower set in a tropical garden setting. Enjoy meals outdoors with the outdoor dining furniture and gas BBQ. The property also offers a one car garage perfect to store your boards and sails as well as a detached laundry room and parking for up to 2 cars. Beach chairs, beach towels and a cooler are provided for your relaxing beach days. And of course, we hope you'll leave your work at home, but just in case, there is a Wifi connection.

You are a short stroll away from the Kuau Store deli, trendy and convenient, healthy food to go, groceries and even Expresso!! Open 6.30am - 7pm daily. Walk through the neighborhood to the #1 rated beach front restaurant on Maui, Mama's Fish House.
In just a couple of minutes by car you are at Ho'okipa beach for more windsurfing & surfing action, or relaxing on the beautiful sandy beach to watch it all happen! Advanced kiting launch nearby. Just 15 minutes from Kahului Airport (OGG), and centrally located to many other Maui attractions, such as seeing the sunrise from Haleakala crater or driving the beautiful winding road to Hana.
The middle of Paia town is just a couple of minutes (by car) to the west of Menehune House. Paia is the home of Mana Foods for fresh organic one-stop shopping, and a splendid mix of restaurants, coffee-shops, trendy boutiques, bank, and post office. All the best North Shore beaches surround Paia, including Baldwin Beach, perfect for early morning walks or a swim.

This little house was perfect for us because we wanted to be a part of the paia neighborhood. The house is thoughtfully laid out, comfortable and full of warm touches: the outside shower, useable kitchen, and I loved the cross ventilation the windows provided. The market has everything and it's yummy. The beach next to mama's is the best secret spot. Thank you Cathy for being prompt and responsive and Norm for such a spotless cleaning job.

We had a great stay. The house was clean, comfortable, and had all things you need to have a great stay and vacation. Even included electric teapot.. all needed small appliances. Also had beach toys and chairs! Located right by a popular local market with fresh Poke! So good! Would stay again.

Wonderful spot. Quiet neighborhood and great location for north shore water sports.
6 / 10Average·Feb 2023
The house was well decorated, well stocked and well kept and VRBO photos/description accurate and we had a lovely time. But felt a tad claustrophobic as neighbor houses are very close on 3 sides. Could barely see the sky. We were disappointed in the lack of a lanai or any other outdoor living space except a round metal umbrella table and 6 uncomfortable metal folding chairs which sat on a concrete pad surrounded by sharp gravel and rough pavement right by the front door (w/b much nicer if this was a grassy area with lounge furniture). Would have appreciated at least a few outdoor chairs in the tiny "back" yard where there is a little pod of grass and a patch of sky.
