We had a great stay at Nihl 5. My wife and I visited Maui for the first time last year. We had hoped to complete the Road to Hana however didn’t get around to it. We are back this year and decided to start our trip with Hana. We visited Paia last year and loved the town. Knowing this would be a great place to start our trip we found Nihl 5 and booked it. Location was perfect to walk to town to shop and eat. Room was well-appointed with everything we needed. We were greeted by the extremely nice owner of the property who let us in. Highly recommend booking this great rental.

Perfect place for a couple

This little cottage had everything we needed for a couple of days of exploring Paia and the beach. Easy walking distance to town and a much longer walk to the beach. Avis was very responsive and friendly.
We saw sea turtles at the beach, about a 20 minute walk from the cottage.

Awesome Maui Stay!

We absolutely loved our stay in Paia, a cute, well thought out space that allowed us to walk everywhere. This is such a convenient location with the amenities for a wonderful stop along the Road to Hana. We couldn’t have been more pleased and would recommend!

Perfect Paia Rental

Avis was a fantastic host, and her home was perfect. We enjoyed walking into town every morning for a cup of coffee and sitting on the private patio in the afternoon for drinks. I highly suggest staying in this home. Great location.

perfect local apartment

The apartment was small but had all necessary amenities and was perfect for 2 people. You are walking distance to restaurants, shops and the beach. Paia has a very low-key vibe, and it is a great place to relax.

Close to downtown, but quiet and a bit out of the way

It has everything you need for making light meals. The bed is comfortable. The internet works. It was spotless. Parking was three steps from the front door. Total privacy. What's to not like?

Aloha Jose-Luis, We sincerely regret any sleepless nights you may have experienced due to the proximity of the refrigerator to your bed. I personally went to observe the refrigerator and there was absolutely no sound. We will continue to ck and observe the unit. And if necessary, we will have it serviced. Our refrigerator is a recent addition, chosen for its top-notch 5-star quality and reliability. We understand the importance of a good night's sleep and apologize for any inconvenience caused.

Convenient room for two

Walking distance to Paia restaurants and shopping is the big appeal here. The room is nice and clean. It has the essentials but it isn’t anything spectacular. The air conditioner worked great and cooled the room quickly. The bed was good but the pillows were uncomfortable. Walls are a bit thin and neighbors woke me up a couple of times. Avis was quick to respond to messages.

Acceptable for location

Limited availability means don’t go lots of vagrants/deadbeats in location. No natural light in unit but bed comfy, hot plate useless and no electric kettle, and somebody kept fridge plugged in but turned off cool so our expensive shop wasted.

Aloha Peter, Based on your comments, I'm sorry that you had a somewhat bad experience here at our home and in Pa'ia. It's sad and unfortunate that we see homeless people in our Town and throughout our Island. I apologize that the refrigerator was set on "low" which should have been noticed. The hot plate works well :) and yes, I do agree that an electric kettle would be much more efficient for a quick cup of hot water :) we will make sure to add one to the list!!!

Perfect town and great location.

Property was almost perfect for us. A little small, but met our needs. Only two issues for us were that the bed was probably not even a queen - I think it was a full - and that the walls are super thin. There are two rentals in this cottage and we felt we always had to he be so quiet, as we could hear the other couple next to us plain as day as well. Otherwise loved it. We sat at the little kitchen table a lot. The free movies on tv were a fun way to end the night. Shower is gorgeous. Quaint little studio. We walked into town often. There is a convenience store literally right next door that sells drinks and snacks. We fell in love with Paia and are so happy that by luck we ended up in this town. Avis, the owner, is super friendly and at your beck and call if you need anything. You have your own little table and chairs outside too and we sat out there often. There were beach towels and even fancy beach chairs with little drink coolers built right in. Loved having the garage that adjoined the cottage so you never got wet walking in (it rained a lot on our trip). Overall, very pleased.

Lovely little spot!

This property was an amazing find for a quick 2-night stay in Paia Town! It was extremely comfortable, clean, and stocked with so many amenities/touches that exceeded our expectations (including coffee/tea fixings, basic condiments, plenty of kitchen dishes/appliances/hot plate/etc., shower gel/shampoo, and extra linens). With limited accommodation options in this area, we were pleasantly surprised to find such a gem. Avis was so friendly and very quick to communicate when we had a couple of questions. Her care for and pride in this space is so evident. We loved the quick walk into the main stretch of town at our leisure, especially as parking down here is such a challenge. So easy and enjoyable. The only detail that I would be aware of prior to selecting this property is that the walls are very thin. If I recall, the listing reviews/details are very transparent on this point, and it is even discussed on the information sheet present in the unit. So not a surprise, but worth noting if this is something you can't get past. Even with very respectful neighbors, we could clearly hear conversation. If a family were staying with kids, etc., or if we had less considerate neighbors, this could have been a bummer. As it was, it was our only small complaint in what was otherwise a perfect stay, and we would 100% stay here again!
