Menehune Shores "Eagle Nest" Oceanfront Penthouse

WELCOME to the "Eagle Nest" — MENEHUNE SHORES #627
Experience Maui from the highest point of Menehune Shores. Perched on the 6th floor, this meticulously remodeled, rare corner penthouse features soaring 2-foot higher ceilings and four extra windows that flood the home with natural light. Because of its unique corner footprint, you are treated to a stunning 270-degree panorama: watch the breathtaking sunrise over Mount Haleakala right from both bedrooms and both showers, and enjoy gorgeous daylight views of the Pacific, Kahoolawe, and the Molokini Crater from your private lanai.
Situated at the very end of the wing farthest from the ocean, you will enjoy a level of privacy standard interior corridor units cannot offer—absolutely no foot traffic passes by your front door or second bedroom window.

PENTHOUSE PRIVACY & CLIMATE COMFORT
Because our corner unit sits on the mountain-facing end of the building closest to South Kihei Road, it offers the ultimate vantage point for watching the morning light hit Haleakala.
• The Perfect Balance: While guests relaxing on the open lanai or keeping the windows open will hear ambient road traffic, closing the unit up and using the climate control transforms the penthouse into a crisp, cool retreat after a long day at the beach.
• Efficient Multi-Zone Cooling: The penthouse is fully equipped with efficient ceiling fans as well as a multi-zone split-system AC with independent controls in every room.
• Island Energy Mindfulness: Electricity costs on Maui are among the highest in the nation. To help us keep our rental rates competitive and protect island resources, we kindly ask our guests to turn off the A/C units each time they leave the condo. The efficient split systems cool the rooms down incredibly fast upon your return!

THE SPACE & BEDDING LAYOUT (2 Bedrooms / 2 Bathrooms)
The condo features a beautifully symmetrical dual-suite layout, offering maximum privacy for couples or families. Each bedroom has its own private entry alcove leading directly to a dedicated bathroom.
• Master Suite: Features a California King bed equipped with a premium, firm Serta memory-foam top mattress. The master bathroom features a full shower-over-bathtub layout.
• Guest Suite (Convertible Flex Bedding): Features two Extra-Long (XL) Twin beds with high-end Nectar mattresses. By default, these are made as separate twins. Can be converted to a King: If requested upon booking, our housekeeping team will seamlessly connect them using a specialized bed bridge (no gap) and a King fitted sheet, complete with individual premium twin duvets. The guest bathroom features a modern, low-curb walk-in shower (no tub).
• Living Room: Includes a brand-new Queen sofa sleeper with a supportive foam mattress. Fresh, clean bedding (mattress protector, sheets, duvet, and 4 pillows) is fully provided in the linen closet.

EXCLUSIVELY REMODELED INTERIOR
• Chef’s Kitchen & Living: A fully equipped kitchen with quartz countertops and a central island seamlessly opens up to a modern living area with floor-to-ceiling glass and a mirrored wall capturing beautiful ocean views.
• Custom Storage: Both bedroom closets feature built-in custom shelving systems and mirrored doors to neatly store all your resort wear.

THE RESORT AMENITIES
Menehune Shores is one of North Kihei’s most beloved oceanfront properties. Guests enjoy full access to:
• The Rooftop Lanai (Spectacular Sunset Viewing): A massive, panoramic rooftop deck featuring gas BBQ grills and picnic tables. While the sunset is not visible directly from the condo balcony, the rooftop offers the ultimate, unobstructed 360-degree vantage point on the coast for sunset dining and cocktail hours.
• Oceanfront Pool & Grounds: Manicured lawns, a heated swimming pool, and direct access to the historic Royal Hawaiian Fishpond (a protected, calm lagoon perfect for wading, swimming and turtle watching).
• On-Site Dining: Home to Monsoon India, a highly-rated oceanfront restaurant located on the ground floor.
• Whale Watching: If you visit during the winter whale watching season (December–April), your private balcony becomes a front-row seat for watching breaching Humpback whales.

IMPORTANT RESERVATION NOTES
• Local Support: We are committed to a flawless 5-star stay. A comprehensive guestbook is provided inside the unit, including phone numbers of our housekeepers should you need anything during your vacation.
• Hawaii Tax ID: GE-008-739-3792-01 | TA-008-739-3792-01
