We absolutely loved our stay at this condo ... the view, the decor, the amenities ... nothing to say but GO! It was a highlight of our year. Watching the sea turtles from the lanai was a special treat, and falling asleep to the sound of waves was another bonus. Our host was kind and responsive to our questions. We can't wait to return!

Stayed here for part of my honeymoon and it was an absolute dream! The view is unmatched. Waking up with a perfect view of the ocean was so lovely. The space itself was very clean and spacious. Would 100% book this place again.
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It was in a great location and was very well appointed and decorated. I loved being able to watch the whales and turtles from the deck. Would highly recommend the property.

Hula Hideaway was amazing, the view was spectacular - we loved watching the turtles from the lanai and listening to the waves from bed. The condo was so clean, comfortable, gorgeous decor, and had everything you could need. The location is great, close to beautiful beaches and away from the bustle of the resorts. Would definitely stay here again and wish we could have stayed longer!
This stay was perfect! The location and view from the balcony was amazing! I loved the decor and all the details in the room. The room was beautiful! I felt so welcomed the moment I walked in. I would definitely return!
We really enjoyed our stay. This unit is well equipped with everything we needed and more. We enjoyed borrowing the tennis racquets and beach umbrella. Only negative is that I thought it was closer to the beach, the block this unit is on backs up to a sea wall.

Aloha Sara, so glad that you had a great time and enjoyed the many unit amenities! Sadly, the Maui shoreline has been hit with winter swells and erosion which is an island wide problem. For the future, Kahana Beach and Pohaku Beach are walking distance, and are great beaches for walking, swimming and enjoying the day. A short driving distance away are also some 5-star beaches that are world famous, Napili Bay and Kapalua Bay! Hurry back!
The condo was a beautiful place to relax after a few days of adventures in Hana. Has a cozy "home away from home" vibe. Great location if you want to be far from the large resorts in west Maui. Incredibly clean and well stocked with linens and beach supplies. We'll definitely be back!

This was a beautiful, fully equipped and super clean studio condo in Maui. Great central location convenient to everywhere on the island. The room has the most amazing views with sea turtles swimming daily right below the lenai! Couldn ’t ask for a better experience!

We Already Miss the Hula Hideaway!
We absolutely loved our stay! The view alone is worth it. We saw the most amazing sunsets, whales breaching, turtles swimming by, and many sailboarders. The location was perfect as well, close to many tasty and reasonable restaurants, excursions, and beaches. We slept so well - the bed is so comfortable and being able to hear the ocean was incredible!! This was a perfect getaway for our anniversary!!

This was an amazing experience that my partner and I will never forget. Everything was 5 stars. We can't wait to stay at the Hula Hideaway again. Highly recommend!
We booked the HulaHideaway last minute after a terrible experience at a nearby “resort”. This place SAVED our honeymoon!! It was beautiful, clean, and probably one of the most well kept vacation rentals I have EVER stayed in. In addition, we saw turtles from the deck every morning and were even able to snorkel with them one day! I cannot recommend this place enough and we will definitely be staying here again if we come back to Maui.

We had a wonderful experience staying at this property. Jill was always available if needed and the location is ideal, away from the hustle and bustle but walking distance to beach, restaurants and other amenities.
Turtles can be seen every morning and evening from the balcony. We look forward to staying here again in the future.
