When you open the double door entry gates, time and the world you left behind begin to fade away. You will step into your private mini resort with outside Tiki bar, swimming lagoon. This private oasis is adjacent to thousands of undeveloped acres, yet minutes to the beach, golf, tennis, fine dining, shopping, and the resorts of Wailea and Makena, offering world-class amenities.

Rich in Hawaiian culture through its artwork and furnishings, you will awaken to the chorus of bird songs including wild lovebirds.

Beneath the rising slopes of Haleakala, enjoy floating in the pool beneath the star-filled sky as there are few lights in this area to distract you from your paradise.

We have stayed at this location 7 times, and would visit every year if it were possible. There is no other place like it on Maui, and it's really hard to describe how relaxing and easy it is to be at this location. Highlights include the hot tub, the deer that walk by in the evenings, sunsets, and just peace and quiet. Our hosts are the best that we've ever had and will likely continue to be a part of our lives in the future. 11/10.

The most beautiful vacation rental property we've ever stayed at, anywhere on the islands or mainland. Carrie and her design team have put together a pool, spa, pool bar and outdoor lounging/eating area that beats 5 star hotels, all for her guests. And you can't beat the privacy. Carrie is on top of everything, super communicative, super responsive. Location is great too, just a few minutes above the heart of Wailea. If you're reading this review, stop now and book this before it's too late.

Fantastic Place to experience Maui

Our family of 4 stayed for a week and a half and I can’t say enough good things about our time there. The property is so much better than the photos can convey, it really is a little piece of paradise. We enjoyed the privacy of having the pool and outdoor kitchen/bar, the view of the ocean and Molokini, and the house itself had everything we needed and more. Truly a special place! Highly recommend staying here!!

We had the most wonderful stay at Auntie Kali’s cottage! From the moment we arrived, the space felt welcoming, spotless, and full of that peaceful island charm you can’t find anywhere else. The cottage was perfectly equipped for our family, with thoughtful touches throughout that made us feel right at home.The location was ideal—close to beautiful beaches, great food, and everything we needed, yet still quiet and private enough to truly relax. We loved starting our mornings with coffee while watching the stars disappear with the sunrise and ending our days listening to the ocean breeze.Auntie Kali was an incredible host: warm, responsive, and genuinely caring. Her recommendations helped us discover some amazing local spots we would have otherwise missed.We couldn’t have asked for a better place for our family to unwind and make memories. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!

First off, what an absolutely beautiful place. Carrie thought of everything, and the cottage was literally perfect for us and the kids. The pool was outstanding, as were the tradewinds off the ocean. OH! And the stars at night…WOW.The grill…the pool…the fire pit…all amazing. Plus, she set us up with the most relaxing Thai massages and with a snorkeling charter where we swam with sea turtles and a monk seal. We are absolutely coming back again next year!

My husband and I visited in September for our anniversary. This is an absolutely stunning property with everything you need and more. The pool and hot tub are glorious and the tiki bar, outdoor shower, grill, and fire pit made you not want to leave the property! Great care has been taken to make sure guests are comfortable here. Please note that Maui county requires the property manager to be onsite, so you are on the hosts' property. While you have doors leading to your property, you are asked to not lock them meaning the owner can and will walk in at any time. We were a bit taken aback by this as it's not something we've ever experienced with hosts before (usually they will call and ask if they need to access your space while you are there). So, as a result, it never felt quite private to us, but the beauty and comfort of this property made up for it. We highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Carrie Williams

Host profile image
Carrie Williams, later known as Auntie Kali, is a registered nurse who began a journey in 2004 to pursue a second dream in life. Born and raised by loving parents in Downy, California, Carrie later moved to Huntington Beach, where at the young age of 22 began her nursing career of 33 years, at Hoag Memorial Hospital.

Her first dream was to be married and have a family, but for reasons that will never be known, she lost her husband to a massive heart attack, at the young age of 46. With her faith, time, and support of family and friends she has been able to see her dream come true by opening Auntie Kali’s Cottage, September of 2013.

If you’re wondering where the name Auntie Kali came from, it’s Carrie’s Hawaiian name. Although she has no children of her own, she has always been Auntie to all of her friends and family and loves kids. She enjoys entertaining and hopes to share hers and many others' labor of love with those who choose to come visit her, somewhere over the rainbow at Auntie Kali’s Cottage.

What makes this property unique

Auntie Kali's cottage has all the amenities of the big resorts but with ultimate PRIVACY. With breath-taking ocean views, and spectacular craftsmanship, Auntie's Kali's Cottage is truly a personal paradise. Ask about car rental availability!
