MauiJOY Villa ~ Expansive oceanview Retreat Above Wailea Pool Private location

The MauiJOY Villa – Private Oceanview Sanctuary in Maui Meadows

Perched above Wailea on a private half-acre in Maui Meadows, The MauiJOY Villa offers sweeping ocean views, lush tropical gardens, and the peaceful feeling of your own private retreat in paradise.

From sunrise over Haleakala to glowing sunsets and expansive southwest night skies, this is a place designed for rest, renewal, and connection with nature. Enjoy panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, Molokini Crater, Kahoolawe, and Lanai — all from the comfort of your private pool, lanai, and garden sanctuary.

Unlike crowded resort properties, only one guest party occupies the villa at a time, allowing you to fully relax in privacy and comfort.

The Experience

Guests often describe The MauiJOY Villa as “Heaven on Earth.”
Wake to birdsong and tropical breezes. Sip coffee overlooking the ocean. Spend the afternoon by the pool beneath swaying palms and the evening under some of Maui’s most beautiful star-filled skies.

During whale season (December through April), whales can often be seen from the lanai and pool area.

The property backs to thousands of acres of undeveloped land, creating an unusually peaceful setting filled with nature, birds, and quiet.

The Villa

The villa is fully air-conditioned, with individual climate controls in every room.

Perfect for couples, friends, or small families, the home features:

Two spacious king bedrooms with premium linens
Two full bathrooms including a jacuzzi tub and walk-in tiled shower
Open living and dining spaces with ocean views
A large private swimming pool
Outdoor dining and barbecue area
Large tropical outdoor shower beneath banana trees
Additional poolside TV/lounge room with Smart TV, refrigerator, and washer/dryer
High-speed Wi-Fi and streaming entertainment

The tropical landscaping creates exceptional privacy throughout the property.

A True Maui Lifestyle

The MauiJOY Villa blends comfort with authentic island living.

The gardens include mango, papaya, guava, citrus, passion fruit, and other tropical plants. Lovebirds, finches, sparrows, and cardinals frequently visit the property, while Maui’s axis deer are often seen nearby at dawn and dusk.

Guests seeking relaxation may arrange private massage services poolside or in the lower garden meditation area.

Beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, coolers, and many thoughtful extras are provided to make your stay effortless and comfortable.

Ideal Location

Located just minutes above Wailea’s world-famous beaches, golf courses, restaurants, and luxury resorts including Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea and Grand Wailea Maui, the villa offers the perfect balance between convenience and tranquility.

You are close to everything — yet feel worlds away from the crowds.

A Note About the Property

About the host

Hosted by MauiJOY

Host profile image
Aloha Guests,
After flying around the world, staying in first-class hotels, teaching first class service and being in the customer service industry for many years, The MauiJOY Villa received 100% unanimous approval vote at a Public Hearing in front of the Maui Planning Commission. Our permit number is BBKM 2014/0004 (owner required to live on site).
I extend the Island of Maui's 'Aloha' to you.
I am MauiJOY because I have lived on Maui (over 30 years!) and have been called 'JOY' in many of the Happiness classes I have taken. I am MauiJOY on backgammon sites as it is one of my favorite games to play.
I am the owner and State of Hawaii licensed broker of my own small company in real estate called, International Real Estate Services, LLC.
Traveling on my own, I have gone around the world visiting many places including Japan, Australia, Canada, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, India, (Burma), Nepal, Myanmar, Kenya, Malawi, South Africa, South America, Europe and South America. So much to see and do yet Maui is my home sweet home and I would love to share it with you.

Why they chose this property

I purchased this home in 1994 because it is very private (few neighbors), and it's spectacular ocean views and location away from everything yet close enough to get to it all including the Wailea resorts, golf, restaurants, shopping and the best beaches in the world in less than 5 minutes by car. (We are up a hill so that is why I say "car".) Too steep after being at the beach! LOL

The views are probably the best in the area as the location is on the edge of the Maui Meadows neighborhood with thousands of acres of vacant land adjacent to the lower gardens.
It's quiet, with peaceful tranquility and a place to truly relax and let go. Maui County noise ordinances are very strict. No noise after 9PM to 8AM.

What makes this property unique

This is a VERY PRIVATE ESTATE because we have few full time neighbors. There are thousands of undeveloped acres to the south and second homes surround us. We recently added a beautiful large outdoor shower beneath the banana trees
Clothing Optional areas.

Would you like to pamper yourselves with a private chef, massages poolside, aromatherapy, 10-day detoxing, private consierge services? Just let me know.

Happy to arrange for a private boat (whale watch), concert tickets and will do our best to help to create the vacation you have painted in your mind and heart.

You may not want to leave the MauiJOY Villa as the large swimming pool overlooks the vast ocean from the West Maui Mountains, across to the island of Lana'i, Molokini Crater, Kahoolawe and up to Haleakala.
The lower gardens have quiet places for you to meditate, exercise and yes, we have a Pavillion where you can enjoy a romantic dinner or just a nice snooze in the afternoon.
There are few street lights in this area providing the most amazing views of the vast night sky. We have a green uplight just above the driveway so you will know where to pull in at night.
The views of the Milky Way are brilliant! I use "Sky Guide" app as we can see and learn so much about our universe. I also have a telescope!
The full moon reflecting in the pool provides romantic lighting while the fragrant flowers fill the air with their perfume. Yes, this is paradise and it can be yours.
I look forward to your visit,
Mahalo Nui Loa,
MauiJOY Teri
