Island Paradise

We took our family of five to Maui to celebrate Christmas. The house was perfect. Michael was a great host, gifting us a fresh pineapple, Christmas cookies, & multiple ideas for how to spend our time on the island. Being able to walk out the back door onto the beach anytime we wanted was the best!

Family trip to Maui-3 adult children

Property was perfect for our family! Unit 1 had two bedrooms and a fold-out couch in the living room. Host Michael was wonderful to chat with. Lots of history in the area and good recommendations for things to do. Wonderful to walk out the back door across a green lawn and be right on the beach. Saw turtles as well as some whales in the distance. Adult kids spent time in the water. Used it as a homebase for seeing all of Maui, but certainly could have spent a lot of time here relaxing and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere.

Amazing!

This house is everything and MORE! We had an amazing time and Mike was a pure pleasure to work with. The house is equipped with everything you need as well as most things you could want! There are chairs, umbrellas, water shoes, flippers, snorkels, sand toys, and boogie boards! You can show up with a bathing suit and be ready to hit the beach. The yard was wonderful! A volleyball net, bocce balls, and comfortable chairs make for a truly enjoyable day. When you’re done in the grass you can run straight to the beach. We had no less than 3 green sea turtles swimming in the surf with us, every day, right off the beach. And the whale shows were incredible. Sunsets, whales and turtles made our vacation top notch. And to top it all off, you are close to everything in Kihei! Thanks Mike.

Perfect Maui Experience

This was our first trip to Maui and Michael made us feel immediately at home. As soon as we arrived we saw the sunset from behind the house just as the picture in the listing shows. Michael was extremely helpful in giving us places to go and explore. Additionally the property has a variety of beach accessories, snorkel gear, water shoes, backyard toys and much more. The property’s location close to many stores made it easy to run out if we needed to get anything. Overall it was an amazing trip and Michael and the property made it a perfect experience.

Beautiful beach home

My wife, 3-year-old and I stayed in the bottom floor two-bedroom unit. The property is beautiful, with a long grass lawn that leads to a low-traffic beach. We happened to be the only unit occupied during our stay so it felt very private. There is more than enough room for everyone even if the other 2 units were booked. The location is excellent and we will likely book out the entire house for a larger family stay next time we visit Maui. The owner was extremely friendly.

Invertí mucho tiempo buscando un lugar especial para llevar a mi familia a Maui, somos expertos en acampar y viajamos por USA pero somos inexpertos en rentar hoteles, etc; pero la palabra que puede describir nuestra estancia en esta propiedad es que fuimos Bendecidos! Si tuviera la oportunidad de viajar a Maui una vez más! volvería a rentar este condominio valió la pena a tal grado que puedo cerrar mis ojos y regresar a ese precioso lugar tenemos un buen sabor de boca.

We absolutely loved our stay! Michael was extremely kind and our communication was perfect. The property is super clean and up to date. The yard and ocean are like something on a post card. Honestly it was so picturesque. The location is perfect. Close to so many things. It’s pretty easy to get around the island with a car, and this location is perfectly in the middle. I highly recommend a stay here & we cannot wait to go back!!!

Beautiful and so relaxing

We had a wonderful stay, the location of the home is the best part. I walked the beach every morning and saw a turtle or 2 on the beach. Hi home is right on the beach, easy access to parking, and great amenities within the house. Michael has thought of everything for his guests, a grill, beach chairs, towels, fins, coolers, an ice machine, stocked kitchen, it's a wonderful home. I will tell all my family and friends and definitely stay here again! Five Stars for sure!

Highly recommended

This was one of our best VRBO experiences. The Owner was very helpful and responsive. The house was set up with all the beach equipment: chairs, boogie boards, snorkel/goggles, towels. The location is very close to restaurants and grocery. Everything was clean and in good working order. This particular rental is a portion of a larger house, so you share the incredible backyard with the other units. We felt like the units are separated well with no sound issues. Each unit has it's own separated outdoor patio area that face directly out to the backyard and beach. We would highly recommend this rental!

Wonderful place and a terrific host

Our family stayed at this property 4 years ago, and we finally returned this year. I think this property is a gem. The giant lawn is great for lounging in a hammock, playing catch, and running around with the kids. The beach is great too. We rented stand up paddle boards and used them right in front of the house. We visited in July the first time, and in April the second time. On both visits we saw groups of turtles swimming just off the shore. We hope to return! I also love staying in Kihei and the easy access to everything we need. We felt right at home.

The location of this place is absolutely beautiful. We have a huge lawn and then the beach. It felt like we had access to a private beach. Michael stocks the house with everything imaginable. Beach chairs, beach shoes, water activity gear, and he also provides recommendations. I read everyone's review that they saw turtles, but I didn't and was super bummed. But the last day when I was leaving there were two swimming near shore. It was soo cool! If you're looking for a place with a great view, I would totally recommend skipping the hotels and staying here!
