VILLA PAOLA MAUI

Nestled at the entrance to the luxurious Wailea Resort area, Villa Paola is a haven of tranquility and airy Italian delight; truly the most unique Wailea cottage you will find!

Redesigned by artists Alessio and Marcello and luxuriously hand crafted by artisans with old World talent in marble, travertine, mosaics and wood, this 1 bedroom, 1 bath hideaway captures the ambience and classic elegance of a villa in Tuscany. With warm yellow ocher and umber throughout the villa contrasted to the cobalt blue of the saline swimming pool surrounded by lush tropical foliage, you'll debate if you are in the Mediterranean or on Maui.

It's easy to feel as if you have been swept away to Italy when viewing the paintings on every wall that capture the essence of Italian living.

Isn't that the perfect topic to discuss over sunset cocktails at the terrace bar shaded by a custom designed red-wood canopy that lights at night by a moon like fixture. A savory dinner of local fish and vegetables from the farmers market may be prepared in the fully stocked kitchen with top of the line appliances and marble countertops, or brought in from the many excellent eateries minutes away - then lingered over in the charming dining room or on the terrace around an antique Italian table fit for royalty. Your own 5 star Wailea Resort!

After an evening stroll or glass of port, you'll tumble into a restful sleep in the bedroom outfitted with queen bed, down filled pillows and fine European linens. Too happy to fall asleep? Indulge in a little late night TV on either the 52'' or 26'' state-of-the-art 4k screens or online poker with fast wireless internet access.

Bathrooms are your thing? the bathroom is elegantly finished with ivory and sand stone, large-enough-for-two showers and the perfect lighting to admire your tan lines or apply makeup for a night on the town.

When you do tear yourself away from this private oasis, straight down the road (4 minutes American style driving, only 1 minute 37 seconds if you drive like a crazy Italian) you will find one of the most beautiful beaches on Maui; Keawekapu. You also have the option to spend the day at the see- and-be-seen Wailea beach or the all-to-yourself Makena beach. You'll be close to the best accomodations in Wailea; minutes away from the Shops at Wailea, the Grand Wailea, Four Seasons Wailea, and the Kea Lani, where you'll find world class restaurants! When you arrive home, step in to the outdoor relaxing shower.

Feeling a little adventurous? Explore all that Maui has to offer. Majestic views at the top of Haleakala, old-time Hawaii in heavenly Hana, world-class windsurfing at Hookipa, the view of Honolua Bay, one of the best surf spots in Hawaii are just a few of Maui's unique charms. Now that you have discovered the perfect place to stay, it is time to find the perfect place to play - Maui.

maui oasis

We had the best time on this trip! This place is a must stay! The accessibility to everything we had planned and wanted to do was amazing, anything you need is a few min away. I absolutely loved the privacy this place has to offer, and the guys respect your space while you are a guest in their backyard. The pool was so nice and the yard is beautiful. Everything was so clean and tidy, with lots of extras we may need for our stay. We will most definitely be coming back to stay here again!!!

Villa Paola Paradise

This is a special slice of paradise in Maui. If you're looking for something private, with your own pool, and amazing hosts, look no further. We had an amazing time, despite a couple days of rain and wind. The hosts were cleaning the pool and area before we got back from breakfast! From wonderful recommendations for local dining, to beach and snorkeling options, our hosts were always available and so helpful. 10/10, would absolutely book again!

Quiet Hideaway

We enjoyed the large outdoor space and private pool. The owners are very responsive and provide drinking water on tap. Lots of great artwork throughout the space. The outdoor bar area is especially nice. The pool is not heated and is very deep so can be a little brisk. Recommend mapping the address on your phone rather than looking at the location in the listing on the VRBO site as the map there is not accurate..

Wonderfully relaxing and private anniversary trip

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at this Maui property and the surrounding area. The apartment offered everything we needed-- a nicely appointed kitchen, comfortable bedroom with sitting area, private swimming pool, laundry facilities and more. It was a short drive to the beaches and to wonderful casual and fine-dining restaurants. Marcello and Alessio were available when we had questions and to offer ideas for activities and dining.We definitely plan to return.

Perfect Getaway!

Our stay at the Villa was amazing. A perfect hideaway located on private property with total privacy surrounded by trees and gardens. Outdoor spaces include a bar right off the kitchen, a table for entertaining guests, a barbecue and a swimming pool. The villa was stocked with everything needed for cooking in. It is a 5 star hidden gem. Marcello was the perfect host.
