Cloud 9 exceeded our expectations. The property is conveniently located near a beautiful beach, great restaurants, and shopping. We especially enjoyed the fresh mangoes from the front-yard tree, the stunning ocean views, and the relaxing pool and hammock. The host was responsive, attentive, and easy to work with. We highly recommend Cloud 9 for anyone visiting the island.
House was exactly as advertised - very clean, pool was great to soak in when we wanted a break from the beach, nice location a short drive from restaurants and shops, and plenty of room for the three adults and three kids in our group. Communication with the owner was excellent. We were very happy with our choice of this home for our Maui vacation.
Great place for my wife and I and our two daughters families, including one toddler. Very comfortable accommodations and the pool was great. The hill down to the beach wasn’t bad, but the parking lot at the bottom was a better choice, especially when carting everything for a two year old. Overall a great stay!
Loved everything about this home. Close to the beach, quick drives to grocery stores, market and gas station. Stayed with a family of 4 (adult kids) and everyone appreciated their own room although my daughter couldHave easily slept outdoors on the hammock during our stay.
House is clean, and well stocked. As a family of seven it was a little tight but we made it work.

Great to hear you enjoyed your stay. Seven adults is a little tight - the seven person needs to sleep on the sleeper sofa in the living room. The home is best for 6 but I allow 7 for guests traveling with larger families.

Our stay was absolutely amazing! The property was beautiful, comfortable, and filled with thoughtful details. It’s in a convenient location while still being tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, which made it feel peaceful and relaxing. Tamara was wonderful to communicate with—she responded quickly, was very welcoming, and clearly puts care into making her guests feel at home. She’s thought of everything you might need, including plenty of essentials for a perfect day at the beach. We would definitely recommend this place and would love to stay here again if we return to Maui!
Great property with perfect location, very relaxing. It was a short driving distance to beaches, restaurants, shops- less than five minutes. Pool is not heated but warms up in the afternoon (during winter).
Everything went great. Host is very accommodating and helpful.

Comfortable home and great location
We loved our stay at Cloud 9! It was the perfect location to visit Kehei and Wailea. The home was very comfortable and having a pool to ourselves was a huge bonus! Steve and Tamara are great hosts. We would definitely come back again.
We had a wonderful trip to Maui. The house was clean and comfortable and in a great location. Communication with Steve the owner we good and we felt safe and supported.
We stayed in Cloud 9 Beach House for our first visit to Maui. The house was perfect for our family traveling with a two year old. The pool and close proximity to the beach were perfect. The beds were comfortable too. Great outdoor space to sit for sunrise and sunset.
Beach house was very clean. Check-in was simple. Tamara provided clear instructions for check-in/out and was just an email or text away if we needed anything. The outdoor area is beautiful with plenty of seating areas and a pool surrounded by lush greenery and flowers. Good location that was just a short walk or drive to the beach. Tamara provided all the beach gear you will need (chairs, umbrella, snorkel sets, wagon, etc).
We loved staying here! We found the house to be clean and well-stocked. The yard was especially amazing with lots of space to lounge and eat. The location was fantastic and only a short walk or drive away to great beaches. Steve was extremely easy to get in touch with and gave very clear instructions on how to check in. We would be happy to stay here again.
We loved it here! Stayed with our 9yo and 2yo and grandparents and this worked well for us all. The pool was warmer than we expected being unheated and the kids were obsessed. Location was absolutely perfect t and easy for beaching and eating and visiting shops. Beds were comfy, we had everything we needed. Will hope to stay again!
Very cute! Family vacation with teens & young adult children. Property was perfect for what we needed, location was within walking distance of beach but it is uphill on the way back home:) Tamara was very quick to respond to any questions/concerns. Would stay again.
We loved the pool and spent a lot of time in it. Great view of ocean from yard. Enjoyed using outdoor furniture!! There were many pool and beach toys plus beach towels to use. Comfortable setting for a family and we would book it again.
