The Space:

Welcome to Villa 8, a beautifully remodeled one-bedroom, one-bath retreat just steps from two of South Maui’s most beloved white-sand beaches.



Inside, the villa features a fully equipped kitchen, dining area, comfortable living room, and a private lanai—ideal for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The bedroom includes a king bed that can be converted into two twin beds upon request, while the living room offers a full-size sofa bed suitable for one adult or two small children. The modern bathroom includes a walk-in shower for added convenience.



Villa 8 is thoughtfully stocked with all the extras that make travel easy, including an iron and ironing board, Tupperware, wine glasses, dishwasher pods, beach towels, and a drying rack for swimsuits after a day at the beach across the street.



You’ll also find everyday essentials provided for your stay, such as plush bath towels and linens, kitchen towels, Nespresso and drip coffee makers, travel-size shampoo and soap, dish soap, salt, pepper, and olive oil—everything you need to settle in and enjoy your Maui getaway.

Two beach chairs, two boogie boards, a beach umbrella, and a cooler are provided for your sun-filled days at the beach.



The Neighborhood:

Charley Young Beach, a long stretch of white sand ideal for beach walks and swimming, is another local favorite that's located at the end of the street, about a one-minute walk from the property front gate.

Perfect location

We enjoyed our visit last year so much that we came back again this year. The best feature of this property is the location -- one block from Charley Young beach and right across from a surf beach that's perfect for paddle boarding. It's great to just drive right up to your unit and the sunsets are magnificent. It's nice to have the use of beach chairs, boogies boards, a beach umbrella and snorkelling at no extra charge. Ralph always goes out of his way to make your stay comfortable.

Awesome Stay!

This place is a gem. The villa itself was great and had everything you need. The property was great also with the pool, grounds, and yoga studio. The beaches out front were great for the sunset and there’s one that has sea turtles at night time. We didn’t realize that they had paddle boards until we were about to checkout. Really enjoyed this property and would rather stay here than a fancy resort.

Excellent location with excellent amenities!

Expectation were high and exceeded both my wife and I's expectations. Quality from the bedding to the bathroom to amenities, pool and available beach chairs, umbrella and buggie boards. Really enjoyed our stay! Low key but at walkable distance to food and stores. The place sets its self apart due to proximity to surfing spot used mainly by locals. I know the phrase is over used, but would hands down stay at Villas by the Cove.

Awesome vacation!

Clean, comfortable accommodations - exactly what we were expecting. The cottage had most everything you need to enjoy your holiday. I found the bed to be comfortable and slept well every night! You can't beat the location - we just loved it! Ralph and the female staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend to family and friends! Mahalo Ralph and the friendly people of Maui!

Excellent value with ocean views, close to great beach

Spent a great 6 nights at this rental. Very short walk to nice Charlie Young Beach and within walking distance to lots of great bars and restaurants. View of the ocean right across the street and beautiful grounds with a little yard. Nice location for driving to the sites. Parking right next to unit and being on ground floor very convenient. Unit was very simple but had pretty much everything you would need. Definitely recommend for couples or those not needing privacy with bedroom/bathroom.

Hidden Treasure!

Ralph, I enjoyed my stay at Maui Cove Inn. It's a quaint little place with character and charm and what a location!! Cross the street to a beautiful cove. It was a perfect spot to set out on paddleboard excursion. In walking distance to just about everywhere you need to go. Short walk to great beach for sunset. I will be booking my next trip at the Maui Cove Inn. Thank you for your hospitality, fresh guava and mango from your trees. Aloha and mahalo.

Wonderful and simple

Everything as advertised. Support and communication from the property manager is exceptional. Pool is beautiful and a short walk to one of Maui’s Highest rated beaches. Personalized parking for those that are renting. And the complimentary hot yoga is great! Only one complaint, the marijuana smell from the parking lot on the other side of the road can be quite strong at certain times of the day.

Mid-century fabulous

We enjoyed a lovely string of days here. Well designed & decorated space. Management talked us through a TV snafu. (It wasn't them; it was us.) Only concern to pass along is sharp edges on fridge door and the coffee table could cut.

Amazing villa in Kihei

We stayed at villas by the cove on our honeymoon and it was perfect. The villa was nicely presented, as soon as you go past the main gate and walk to your villa, you know you’re on holiday. The little pool area and the plants make you feel like you’re in paradise. The villa itself was clean and well kept. We were able to use the paddle boards and boogie boards that were provided - super handy having it stored just outside of your villa. The location was perfect. Across the villa, is the cove beach where you can see locals rocking up and go paddle boarding/surfing. If you walk a little further down to Charley Young Beach, this place is amazing for sunsets. We watched the sunset every day - it was amazing. There are so many food places around which makes this place the perfect location to stay. It’s also easy to get around - whether you want to explore the north island or the south, Kihei is a great starting point. We’d love to come back here! If you’re deciding to book this villa, book it - you won’t regret it!

Little bit of Heaven on Earth

We have been going to Maui for years, to escape the cold winters and enjoy absolute paradise. Our favorite place to stay is Maui Cove Park Inn. The villas are very clean and have a cozy, comfortable feel. We love the privacy of having our own little stand alone home, that a high rise cannot possibly offer. Also the added convenience of driving right up to your door is a great plus. The property grounds are lush and well maintained, providing a relaxed atmosphere to enjoy time on the patio or a barbecue. The kitchen is well equipped with all the necessities, dishes, pots and pans, coffee maker, toaster, microwave etc. etc. Laundry facilities are right on site, so no wasted time at the laundromat. The manager is very helpful and goes beyond the norm, with a sincere desire to ensure your stay is comfortable, as well as memorable. Improvements and updates are ongoing. If anything were lacking, it would pale in comparison to the great location. The ocean is just across the street!! A few things we enjoyed that were very convenient due to location, are stand up paddle boarding, kayaking, hiking, bicycling, great snorkeling, whale watching, and moonlit ocean strolls. There are excellent parks and beaches, water sport rentals, grocery and health food stores, restaurants, nightlife, and a library, all within short walking distance. We really enjoy our time at Maui Cove Park Inn. We hate to leave, and can't wait to return!!!!

Condo and property

The condo was great, clean private, safe and ready for a party of two. Beach chairs need cleaning (some soiled spots), bed was comfortable and clean! I’d recommend adding a bathroom fan or noise defuser since the door allows all noises in and out. Had some difficulty getting the Nespresso to operate but eventually it worked. Overall a very nice rental, I will return.
