House was nice and well stocked. I enjoyed the outdoor shower and garden. Neighborhood was so-so. A couple abandoned vehicles parked in front of the house made getting in/out difficult. Adjoining house that host also owns was noisy. Mainly, I also found host’s communications to be excessive both before and during my stay. I’m just trying to relax on vacation, not be bombarded by messages. Never experienced that before. Overall, I did enjoy my stay but felt it was a bit overpriced all things considered.

Wonderful stay for our honeymoon retreat!

The hosts were really great at answering any questions prior to check-in and also touched base with us to ensure we had all we needed. The property itself was beautiful. It was so nice waking up in the morning, having coffee on the back porch and listening to the birds. It was a pretty short/enjoyable walk to restaurants and nightlife and the driveway was awesome for quick parking of our car. Would highly recommend to anyone who's looking to visit Maui! Thanks again for a wonderful stay :)

Amazing!

We stayed here for almost a week and it was the nicest place I have ever been to on Maui. So clean and the host was easy to communicate with. The ac and fans are a must with the heat and humidity. 10/10 would recommend. Close to all the shops and beaches.

Love this little cottage!

We only had 2 nights here, but I wish we could have stayed much longer - the accommodations were simply lovely - the landscaping created a private flower-filled oasis and the creation of outdoor living space makes the home seem at least twice as big. The owners were very responsive in communicating with us and I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Our only disappointment is that the nearest beach isn't really a swimming beach, but it has amazing sunsets!

Amazing private cottage!

My Husband and I just got married this month on the Big Island. I chose this because it would be perfect for our honeymoon in Maui. We loved the privacy, the location, the cleanliness, the clean/green atmosphere, and the quick and warm communication from Jenni. They had a wonderful book they created so we can ‘meet’ their family. It also provided so many adventures, places to eat, beaches to go to. I love this cottage and will absolutely reserve again for our future travel.

Book it and you won't regret it!

My wife and I have stayed at many different vacation rentals over the years, and this property is the best, pound for pound, that we have stayed in.It packs a real punch into its 1Bed/1Bath footprint. Hot tub, outdoor shower, two separate outdoor seating areas, in unit laundry, smart TVs, high quality linens, a luxury shower, and more! And that's just the physical features. The hosts Jenni and Dave think of literally everything they can to make your stay wonderful. Whether it's a welcome gift, extra sunscreen, or a recommendation book that's 2" thick, they have invested their time into making the place memorable. They've also invested their money - everything feels new and high quality, as of January 2025, or at the very least VERY well kept up. We also liked how walkable it was to S Kihei Rd and many of the major restaurants and stores near Kalama Park. We did this daily for breakfast and dinner.There should be a special category for hosts like this who keep up properties like this, because I'd stay at any of their properties again in a heartbeat. If this space fits your needs and is anywhere close to your budget, just book it because you won't regret it.
