We stayed in the Honu'ea Cottage for twelve nights and enjoyed every day. The view of the ocean is beautiful and a very short walk to the beach. We were able to see a huge sea turtle sunbathing on the sand. It's perfectly located in a central part of Kihei with easy access to all parts of the Island. The Cottage was very clean and had all we needed for our stay. The only complaint we had was moving luggage up and down a number of steps. Not a big deal, but something to be aware of. We would not hesitate to stay here in the future.

Descriptions and reviews are spot on. View, sunset, ocean sounds, turtles and proximity to beach (steps away) all make this an exceptional place over a condo or resort. Exactly what we wanted: a cottage with an authentic Maui vibe.

This was the perfect home base for a week on Maui! The place was super clean, comfortable, quiet, and right on the beach. It’s centrally located, making it an easy walk to local shops and restaurants. The host was incredibly responsive, too. We would love to stay here again!

Our host was a fabulous host. Very responsive. Felt like I left Maui with a new friend. Loved the cottage, walked to the beach. And the best was getting to watch the Hawaiian giant green sea turtles come ashore at sunset, and go back in the water at sunrise. Walking to distance to shops/food/groceries. Our stay was memorable and goes down as one of our best vacations ever. Thanks again to our fabulous host.

What a wonderful place! It is very cute and just the right size. It's as close as you can get to the beach and walking distance to shops and restaurants. We watched basking sea turtles come in to the beach to sleep and gazed at a terrific night sky. The hosts are friendly and easy going. We loved our stay and would definitely come again.

Our stay at Honu’ea Cottage was so wonderful! We loved the location as it was close to so many restaurants and activities. The cottage was perfect for 2 people and we enjoyed the view to the ocean from the lanai and from the inside. There was everything we needed for our stay. Quiet and peaceful space to enjoy our vacation. Amber, the host, was exceptional with communication before and throughout our stay. Great recommendations for places to eat! Highly recommend this lovely cottage.

This was our 2nd stay at the Cottage, great location. Love walking through the path in the backyard to see the turtles and walk the beach each morning. Comfortable king size bed, full kitchen with a nice mixture of spices and condiments. Amber is so easy to contact for any questions and was very responsive to us during one of the storms. Easy to get around the island from here - very centrally located.

This one bedroom apartment is very comfortable and is well supplied with everything you need for an enjoyable stay. It is private, easy access to the entire island and shops/food a short drive and many within walking distance to either cook dinner or get take out and watch sunset from the balcony.

This was our second stay here. It is a great location to access shops, restaurants and the rest of the island. The VRBO has everything you need to enjoy the week. A quick walk through backyard and you are on a sandy beach, where turtles come to rest at night. We will stay here again when we are on Maui.

The cottage was exactly what we wanted. Privacy, beach front and quiet. Amber is very accommodating and it has the basics and then some. It is second story so the view is great so just meet the challenge of a few more steps. Enjoy the moment.

My husband, son (infant), and I absolutely loved staying at this cottage. The proximity to the beach and restaurants was perfect. The sunsets at night and sunrise beach walks was exactly what I needed for this vacation. We saw many green sea turtles. Amber was awesome to work with. I highly recommend this property!
