It was a great property and you could just walk past the other cottages to the beach. Michael the host was so great and helped us with what to do and how to get around the island. The location was great as well. We will definitely be back and stay in the cottages that face the beach.
We had a great stay at the cottage. Super clean, perfect size for two adults. We had everything we needed in the kitchen. It was so great to get to meet Mike and learn his history on Maui. We'll definitely be back, and likely to book one of the other units that have the view!
Great location with everything you will need in the house. Very close to a little beach where we would paddle board or just sit and watch the turtles pop up. We could also see whales every day! Would definitely stay again.
Very nice stay. Weather was perfect! Mike was very helpful getting us set up with paddle boards and places to see. The cottage was excellent and we’re thinking of getting it again for Christmas possibly. Mahalo Mike!!
Totally awesome stat! Mike is a very gracious host. You are about 100 yds from the beach and super clean walk. There is an outdoor shower accessible on the walk back. Everything you need for a comfortable stay is in the unit. Air conditioning works great. Mike provided us with beach chairs and many great excursion ideas. If we ever go back to Maui, I would definitely stay here again.
Absolute hidden gem of a property. Couldn’t have asked for more as it was just what we were looking for so we could relax and be lazy for 5 days. Perfect in every way. Mike truly was the best host ever and very accommodating throughout the week. Highly recommend this place in every way.
Wonderful place to spend a week in Maui. Convenient and secluded, Beach access, air conditioned 2 bedroom upstairs flat. Was able to beach lounge, paddle board and walk the beach with ease. Definitely recommend to anyone who wants privacy away from the crowds.
Michaels property has everything you need for the perfect beach stay. He is so friendly and accommodating and the location of his property could not be beat! We will be back!
The best vrbo we've stayed in ever, and we've stayed in alot of them all over the country and international. Our host was so welcoming, attentive and generous. Made sure we had everything we could need. Sent us many recommendations of activities to do and see. Absolutely stunning property. Pure paradise. My family will be back for sure. I cannot say enough great things about our host and property. Thank you Mike. We'll see you again.
The area we stayed at was amazing! It was a great location to plenty of restaurants and grocery stores. Mike was an excellent host, probably the kindest property manager we have ever encountered. You can tell he’s a hard worker and takes pride in his rentals and wants to make sure his guests are happy. Thank you again for everything Mike! We had a wonderful time and it was beyond amazing to see the beautiful sea turtles just steps away from the property’s backyard. The views from the backyard yard were breathtaking!
Wir verbrachten eine wunderschöne Woche in Michaels Ferienhaus. Die Nähe zum Ozean, ein toller Garten und eine wunderschöne Veranda, auf der wir die ereignisreichen Tage ausklingen lassen konnten. Michael war ein toller aufmerksamer Gastgeber, auf Nachfragen reagierte er sofort und gab uns wertvolle Tipps, was man auf Maui unternehmen kann. Michael, wenn du irgendwann nach Deutschland kommst, melde dich, wir würden uns gerne für deine Gastfreundschaft revanchieren.

All the glowing reports about this place are true. You walk straight back to a splendid beach, no road in between. The dwelling is spanking clean and convenient. Comfortable beds, good kitchen facilities, excellent AC. And Mike, the host, is as helpful and friendly as can be.
Host is amazing, he was super helpful and went out of his way to help my wife and I have an amazing vacation in Hawaii. The VRBO is very clean and spacious, no complaints at all. Around the back is amazing access to a quiet beach. Loved it and highly recommended.
Overall we had a great experience at this place. The location was walking distance to shops and bars and was close to the beach.
Our host was a great, he was kind and offered so much information about the attractions.
We would stay here again
Probably the best host I've met. Michael was helpful, kind and generous. The property was well prepared and comfy. The beach fronts not a bad place to see the sunset. I'll absolutely be returning.
The location was even better than we expected and everybody loved it: secluded and basically right on the beach! This little cottage had everything we needed and our host Mike was the most accommodating and informative about what places to visit, where to eat, what local activities to try!
Would highly recommend this place!
