There is a Windsurf and Wingfoil school a 10 minute stroll up the beach, or you can launch straight from the beach close to the property. 

The food at Makena Hotel is a key part of the experience and is known for its quality, freshness, and creativity. The hotel has its own restaurant and bar called NUI, which is open daily and offers a relaxed but refined setting that reflects the peaceful coastal surroundings.

Breakfast is served Ă  la carte rather than buffet style, with a focus on fresh, local ingredients. You can expect tropical fruits, freshly baked breads, homemade cakes, tapioca pancakes, eggs made to order, local cheeses, and fresh juices. Coffee is high quality and service is attentive but unhurried, allowing guests to relax and enjoy the morning.

Typical plates might include grilled octopus, fish moqueca, seafood risotto, or slow-cooked meat dishes with unique tropical sauces. Vegetarian options are available, and the kitchen is generally flexible with dietary preferences.

The atmosphere at NUI is calm and candlelit in the evening, creating a romantic setting ideal for couples. The bar offers a well-curated wine list, craft cocktails made with tropical fruits and local spirits, and refreshing non-alcoholic options.
