Located in sunny South Maui, Maui's South Shore boasts the most variety and breathtakingly beautiful beaches of all Hawaiian Islands. Just pack your swim suite and leave the rest to us. Staying in a house with relaxing outdoor spaces is truly one of the best ways to enjoy your vacation. This is a non-smoking property.
Why rent a private cottage? You never have to share the hot tub or the BBQ with any of the other tourists nor is there a closing time for the hot tub. Parking is so convenient directly in front of the cottage, you never have to compete with other guests for parking spaces. When you have your large suitcases, Costco purchases, beach gear and coolers, your car is just out the front door instead of meandering through a large complex with your heavy items.

LOCATION
----------------------------------------------------
The ancient Hawaiians traveled to Kihei for their Royal Retreats. There are six miles of beach along Kihei's coastline, including the popular Kama'ole beaches.
Our private cottage is located in a neighborhood in the heart of South Kihei, the sunniest part of Maui near the famous Kama’ole white sand beaches. Just a 10-minute walk to many things:
* Kalama Beach Park (tennis, volleyball, basketball, skate park, outdoor skating rink, beautiful sunsets, and more)
* Over 23 restaurants, coffee shops, and bars
* Shops, boutiques, open air markets
* Saturday Farmers market and grocery store
* The Cove Beach Park (paddle boarding and beginner surfing)
We love our morning and evening walks for coffee, breakfast, waterfront strolling, paddleboarding, happy hour, dinner, evening cocktails, and sunsets.
Quick drive (5-minutes)
* Kamaole Beach Park 1, 2, 3 (Kam 1 is a 20-min walk) – the best swimming beaches
There are several beaches very close to the house depending on what you are interested in. When we go to the beach with our gear, we always drive. There is plenty of parking in front of the beaches and we have coolers, beach chairs, beach umbrellas, boogie boards, snorkel equipment, towels.
Here are all the distances to give you a better idea of our local beaches.
* Kalama Beach Park (0.5 mile, 5 min walk to beginning of the park) - retaining wall to the ocean and beach, small beach usually used by paddleboarders and surfers. Fantastic walk along the waterfront and where everyone gathers for sunset. The park is amazing with playground, tennis, volleyball, basketball, roller-skating rink and more
* Cove Park (0.7 miles, 10 min walk, 1 minute drive) - great for paddle boarding, wading in the water, beginner surf lessons leave from this beach
All the Kamaole beaches are considered some of the best beaches on Maui. We spend our beach time at Kamaole I.
* Kamaole Beach Park I (1 mile, 20 min walk, 3 min drive)
* Kamaole Beach Park II (1.6 miles, 32 min walk, 5 min drive)
* Kamaole Beach Park III (1.9 miles, 36 min walk, 6 min drive)
Short Drive (15-20 minutes):
* Famous Makena Beach, Wailea and world class golf courses
* Airport
Stroll in cute little shops while trying some local shave ice. You will love Maui's most unique shopping and dining experience at Kihei Kalama Village with great places to eat and over 40 vendors and boutiques. At the south side of Kalama Beach, you will find Cove Park where you can take surfing lessons or try stand up paddle boarding. Walk beyond Cove Park and you find Charley Young beach which is part of the famous Kamaole beaches.
In the morning, walk to Starbucks, Lava Java Coffee Roasters, or Da Greens and enjoy your coffee at the beach or in a lush tropical setting. During the early evening, you can enjoy Happy Hour at Three’s Bar and Grill or one of the other many places within a 10-minute walk of the house or enjoy the gorgeous sunsets at the beach.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Jenni and Dave
Dave and Jenni would like to welcome you to their Garden Cottage in Kihei. We purchased this property in 2013 because we always enjoy the aloha spirit of the islands and love to go paddle boarding, snorkeling, and scuba diving. Dave dabbles with the guitar and ukulele and loves all the music that is so prevalent in Hawaii. Jenni spent some of her happiest years as a child living in Hawaii and we both feel connected to the island. We currently live in Seattle, and like you, plan our vacation getaways to Maui. We welcome you to our vacation paradise.
Why they chose this property
We chose this house because we really like the community in Kihei. We loved the family feel of the town, the parks, the beaches and it just felt like home. We really wanted a place where we could garden and walk to restaurants and the beach. We love the neighborhood being so close to everything you could ever need within walking distance including some of our favorite restaurants on the island. The cottage is our romantic getaway where we like to relax in style. Reducing our footprint on the environment is important to us, and we love the green energy of this home.
It took us over a year to get the permit and to set up the house. We finished setting the house up in late May 2014. We started a full-scale remodel on the cottage in 2017 and did not finish until March of 2018. We outfitted this home exactly how we want it for us. We furnished it with the top of the line in all areas, and while it will cost us more than the average vacation home, we think it makes this property very unique and something we can be proud of to share with others and be enjoyed for years to come.
