About this property
MauiJOY Villa -Heaven on Earth ~PRIVATE Estate OCEAN Views, Swimming pool.
A PRIVATE ESTATE where you will experience Comfort, Ease, Quality, Carefree, Private, Relaxing, Heaven on Earth. Our permit number is BBKM 2014/0004.
We believe in the Malama Hawaii program where visitors are respected as Ohana "family" and they in turn respect the aina (place) and it's people as Ohana.
We are Fully air-conditioned! Each room has it's own controls.
Located on a half an acre of land, adjacent to thousands of undeveloped acres and above the hustle and bustle of the resorts of Wailea, including The Four Seasons, The Grand Wailea with many great restaurants nearby, The MauiJOY Villa has a 180 degree ocean views of three islands, with a large private swimming pool.
The luch tropical landscaping provides privacy, allowing our guests to go clothing optional.
This is the perfect Private Spa getaway as only ONE party can reserve this property at a time, so when you reserve the MauiJOY Villa, (Heaven on Earth) you will have the privacy of the pool to yourselves. (The pool can be completely enclosed with a removable security fence for toddlers).
Two large Bedrooms, making this ideal for two couples or a small family.
each bedroom is equipped with king sized very comfortable bed with premium linens. Each bedroom has light and sound blocking curtains too in case the birds are too loud for you. The second master bath, with granite counter top, jacuzzi tub, also has a walk-in tiled shower accommodated for senior.
Both bedrooms have tropical garden views with cool breezes that come in from the top of Haleakala (The islands dormant volcano that rises above Maui at 10,023 ft.)
There is a very large outdoor shower beneath the banana trees where you can shower off after the beach or swim in the pool or like some of our guests perfer to use it only.
There are beautiful ocean views from the living area and dining/kitchen areas.
Everything you need to enjoy a stress free vacation is here, from your morning smoothie using the latest Vitamixer, the large four burner barbecue, dishes, premium linens, luxury bathrobes, beach chairs/towels, free high speed wifi internet and free movies using our streaming services Hulu, Pandora, Amazon Prime.
(We love kids so have little chairs, beach toys, games, floats, umbrellas and a portable high chair)
The additional room, TV/Sitting room has a large refrigerator, a washer /dryer and 40' Smart Flat Screen TV and is located off pool side for your convience while using the barbecue and close to your outdoor dining area.
The MauiJOY Villa has been a favorite spa retreat for two couples to share and families. The kids love the pool!
We will give you contact information for our favorite massage therapist who will bring her table and you can get a relaxing massage poolside or beneath the mango tree in the lower gardens.
The MauiJOY Villa has breathtaking views of the ocean and full south western night skies. Lush tropical landscaping affords property privacy. The lower garden, also with ocean views, is a perfect meditation or yoga/pilates spot, and there are also various organic fruit trees including Mango, Papaya, Guava, Strawberry Guava, Tangerines, Oranges and Passion fruit vines for your morning smoothies.
There are many love birds I have rescued that visit our feeder along with finch, sparrow, and two species of cardinals, to name a few. If you enjoy bird watching, this is a good spot for that too. In fact, love birds who fly freely in our gardens may even stop to say 'aloha'. Our Axis deer actually "bark" and you may hear/see them on the adjacent vacant land.
Sit by your private pool and watch the whales play from December to May. You can actually watch them from the lanai (we have binoculars, however you may want to bring your own for boat trips) and the activity can be seen from here.
We have our own drinking water filters in the kitchens so no need to buy plastic water bottles, We encourage you to bring your re-fillable water bottles.
We have plenty of shopping bags/ cooler bags for your use.
The County of Maui is now discouraging any type of sunscreen that is NOT labled "reef safe" as our corals are being affected by the ingredients in sunscreen.
We do recycle as much as possible here too with recycling bins.
In compliance with County of Maui Licensing codes, the owner does occupy a studio on the property however does not interfere with your privacy and available for questions as your on site concierge. This owner-occupied property is best suited for guests who are comfortable with an on-site owner in a separate area and who value a peaceful, respectful environment.
New Year's eve is spectacular with views of the resort fireworks as well.
Many house guest have called this 'Heaven on Earth' and we are so grateful to be here on
Maui No Ka Oi.
We, (MauiJOY and staff), invite you to spend your time with us to relax, rejuvenate and enjoy our sanctuary. Away from the crowded resorts, your private mini resort.
Please let us know of any special request and we will do our best to make this your best vacation ever!
Mahalo Nui Loa for your kokua,

About the host
Hosted by MauiJOY
Aloha Guests,
After flying around the world, staying in first-class hotels, teaching first class service and being in the customer service industry for many years, The MauiJOY Villa received 100% unanimous approval vote at a Public Hearing in front of the Maui Planning Commission. Our permit number is BBKM 2014/0004 (owner required to live on site).
I extend the Island of Maui's 'Aloha' to you.
I am MauiJOY because I have lived on Maui (over 30 years!) and have been called 'JOY' in many of the Happiness classes I have taken. I am MauiJOY on backgammon sites as it is one of my favorite games to play.
I am the owner and State of Hawaii licensed broker of my own small company in real estate called, International Real Estate Services, LLC.
Traveling on my own, I have gone around the world visiting many places including Japan, Australia, Canada, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, India, (Burma), Nepal, Myanmar, Kenya, Malawi, South Africa, South America, Europe and South America. So much to see and do yet Maui is my home sweet home and I would love to share it with you.

Why they chose this property
I purchased this home in 1994 because it is very private (few neighbors), and it's spectacular ocean views and location away from everything yet close enough to get to it all including the Wailea resorts, golf, restaurants, shopping and the best beaches in the world in less than 5 minutes by car. (We are up a hill so that is why I say "car".) Too steep after being at the beach! LOL
The views are probably the best in the area as the location is on the edge of the Maui Meadows neighborhood with thousands of acres of vacant land adjacent to the lower gardens.
It's quiet, with peaceful tranquility and a place to truly relax and let go. Maui County noise ordinances are very strict. No noise after 9PM to 8AM.

What makes this property unique
This is a VERY PRIVATE ESTATE because we have few full time neighbors. There are thousands of undeveloped acres to the south and second homes surround us. We recently added a beautiful large outdoor shower beneath the banana trees
Clothing Optional areas.
Would you like to pamper yourselves with a private chef, massages poolside, aromatherapy, 10-day detoxing, private consierge services? Just let me know.
Happy to arrange for a private boat (whale watch), concert tickets and will do our best to help to create the vacation you have painted in your mind and heart.
You may not want to leave the MauiJOY Villa as the large swimming pool overlooks the vast ocean from the West Maui Mountains, across to the island of Lana'i, Molokini Crater, Kahoolawe and up to Haleakala.
The lower gardens have quiet places for you to meditate, exercise and yes, we have a Pavillion where you can enjoy a romantic dinner or just a nice snooze in the afternoon.
There are few street lights in this area providing the most amazing views of the vast night sky. We have a green uplight just above the driveway so you will know where to pull in at night.
The views of the Milky Way are brilliant! I use "Sky Guide" app as we can see and learn so much about our universe. I also have a telescope!
The full moon reflecting in the pool provides romantic lighting while the fragrant flowers fill the air with their perfume. Yes, this is paradise and it can be yours.
I look forward to your visit,
Mahalo Nui Loa,
MauiJOY Teri
