The word makena means abundance in Hawaiian, which makes it the perfect name for a sunny 1,800-acre resort on the south shore of Maui. The real Hawaii, in all its floral lushness and innocent charm, still flourishes on the island.
As Makena’s only hotel, the Maui Prince paints a perfect picture of holiday living at the foot of Mount Haleakala. Guests lounge at either of two swimming pools. They stroll the quarter mile of white-sand beach fronting the hotel. They laze away the day on nearby Makena Beach. Or they work off energy on six meticulously maintained Plexipave tennis courts managed by Peter Burwash International.
