Summary: Makanui Estate offered the perfect accommodation for my extended family of 16. Plenty of room and comfy beds for everyone, along with multiple comfy gathering places with ceiling fans inside and out. And Koloa Kai is easily one of the best vacation rental companies we’ve encountered. The whole rental process was easy, every text we sent was replied to immediately, and every request was handled within an hour or two of submission. I’ll happily rent from them again in the future.
