Aloha Ladies!
My fiance and I are going to Maui on our honeymoon the first week of October and are looking at the Makena Beach and Golf Club. One of our big draws to this location is the beach property the resort is situated on, as well as it's proximity to Wailea. We do know the hotel is currently undergoing some renovations, updating of furniture, etc. but since the resort has some mixed reviews - many that are outstanding and some not so much - we wanted to check around. We are aware the pool area at this resort is not as fancy as the big-names, but we are looking for a lower key resort as we want a calmer experience where we stay. Reviews and recs will be greatly appreciated!! 
Also - how is the weather in that area in earl y October?
