If Minimalist is what your looking for...

This is the perfect location. Looks small and sparsely furnished and it is, that gives you room to put your luggage and unpack! There are all kinds of kitchen appliances in the cabinets, explore, you will be surprised how well it is stocked for your stay.

Wailuku stay

Property was nice. Noise from the second floor guests was very loud. It was a bit challenging getting new towels etc. Our schedules didnt seem to mesh. Overall it was a great stay and I would recommend it for someone looking for reasonable rates and a comfy, safe room.

Aloha 🌺

I’m a long-time kamaʻāina (local) here in Hawaiʻi and help run our family-owned, small lodging inn here on Maui. My wife and I are raising our five children who were all born and raised on the island. We feel very fortunate to live here and to call Maui home.

Maui is a beautiful and special place, and as many visitors learn, the cost of living here is among the highest in the country — especially housing. Your choice to stay with a local family-run business directly supports our community and helps us continue to provide comfortable, welcoming accommodations for travelers.
From our ʻohana to yours, mahalo for supporting local and choosing to stay with us. We look forward to sharing the spirit of Aloha with you during your visit. 🌈🤙
