This is a beautiful place for those looking for a down to earth look at the island. This property is about a 20 - 25 mins from the closest local amenities and shopping. It offers beautiful views. It has satellite TV, and limited Internet access. I got good service reception with Verizon. Close to local hiking trails and very scenic. The drive up can be a little intimidating, but everyone we encountered was very friendly and polite. This property is next to the road you use to access it, though it was never intrusive to us. When we arrived we had a bunch of fresh local citrus fruit waiting for us. The property has a washer and dryer, propane grill, gas stove top (no conventional oven) a toaster oven, a blender, full sized refrigerator, coffee maker, a small heater/fan, a hot plate, and very basic spice set (salt and pepper, garlic powder, seasoned salt) so bring anything else you need/want. The host is very attentive and responsive. We had a minor medical problem (bad shaving cut) and were looking for a first aid kit. The host didn't have one, but before I could leave the property she had a neighbor deliver one for us. There is a bit of construction underway, however it is advertised on the listing and does not take away any of the charm. This is a very alive island full of bugs, geckos, and all kinds of things, so know that you are going to be surrounded by nature in all its many forms. We added a wine key, and some basic tourist stuff (spray on sunscreen, aloe and the like) just wanted to keep the sharing culture alive. If you are just wanting to get away from the world in a beautiful way this is definitely a great option.

We really enjoyed this location- the sunrises & sunsets were stunning with all the windows. Unlike other comments we didn't think there were a lot of insects. A few tiny ants & a very cute gecko - you are on a lush island, there is going to be some wildlife. This is a 'get away from it all' location, so make sure to stock up on supplies/ food before you head up as it's a 20 min walk from any town. A 5 min drive away there is a fabulous 1hr long hike to a waterfall where you can swim. There is laundry in the basement which is a nice asset if you are swimming a lot. If you are an aspiring NASCAR driver - the drive to the cabin is for you! It is narrow & twisty, with drop offs high above the ocean. Personally I enjoyed driving it, but if you are a nervous driver this might not be the place for you. We cycled around the north & upcountry of the island, leaving from both directions and it was a great midway place to start (only if you are experienced cyclist). The one issue that needs to be addressed is that the alarm system is installed beside the bed @ eye level and it glows all night. We taped magazines over it to block the light but hopefully the property managers can address this.

Looking for a scenic, secluded maui getaway where you can live like a local? This is it. Definitely for the more experienced AirBnB'r - do not come here expecting a resort like stay. This house is perched up on a hill outside of the main city by about 25 minutes, and is surrounded by a couple ranches and other homes. Perfect stovetop for cooking, and the gas grill was great for dinners. All supplies you might need are there, short of seasoning and condiments. Not exactly centrally located, but the island is fairly small and the drives are beautiful, so it was always enjoyable even if you had to go to the opposite side. I will be suggesting this place to everyone I can. Mary, our host, was so sweet even when I called her in the middle of the night not accounting for the time zone difference.

The enhanced photos of this rental show a beautiful casita above the ocean but the reality is a far cry from these. The dollar amount charged ( including fees & charges) make this little house more expensive than the elegant 4 star hotel ocean villas on the other side of the island. The location has a beautiful view of the Maui mountainous coastline and the structure is a nice design, however the wear & tear on the exterior, unfinished construction in the yard along with lack of cleaning and old worn furnishing detract from the overall beauty. After booking I called the managing agent listed for more information on the house because none are provided. I needed directions, instructions for the alarm & gate code, and anything else essential but they said they had no information. I emailed the owner ( who lives in another state) and she responded w/ codes for 2 lockboxes for keys and the alarm code. However, I never received what I felt was basic essential information about this rental. For example, driving the hazardous winding mountain road (and at times 1 lane road) to the house means one should know beforehand to arrive well before dark, to stock groceries in town and be aware of how the house functions before setting out because on arrival you may have no wifi, not be able to reach the local contact and be stuck there at night or in bad weather. The disregard of the persons responsible for this house shows in the condition of the house: the linens are old and mismatched, (not clean on one bed), thin bedspreads and lumpy pillows are just minimal. No extra linens, pillows or blankets are provided. The place has no central heating nor air so open windows are a necessity; this is fine but with the constantly changing weather blankets and fans were needed for comfort. The house needs a deep clean, a cosmetic renovation and a few nice appointments or amenities provided to be a viable rental. Everything from dishes to area rugs to the old shower curtain & bathmat show disrepair or lack of concern. The kitchen was fine, it had basic pots & pans, a microwave and portable oven but ants were everywhere in the house and details like a stained and dirty exterior on the refrigerator and a dusty ceiling fan gave it a dingy look. The bathroom is the worst part of the house, it's old, baseboards are rotting, it smells musty and really needs cleaning. Providing just 1 bath towel per adult for a 3 day stay is just not adequate. The lack of communication and failure to respond to my requests by the owner and manager were the last straw. Do not waste your money on a place where obviously no one cares about your comfort or safety.

The location and view were beautiful. Watching sunrise over the ocean each morning was wonderful. The cottage was clean and well-stocked with towels and blankets. The one downside was not having any real forewarning on the road required to get there - a mountain road with lots of switchbacks that at times is only a single lane. Otherwise, everything else was great. Communication when we needed to check in a bit early was wonderful and updates on someone working on the fence were super helpful. Really enjoyed the spot. Definitely away from the hustle and bustle, but a very drivable distance from Wailuku and anywhere else we wanted to go.

Quiet and secluded but now to far from restaurants and stores. Great communication! Amazing view!

Our stay at Sally's was amazing. She is an exceptional host and the location was exactly what we wanted. We were looking for a quiet place for a few nights that was away from the main tourist center and that had a view of the mountains and ocean. The sound of the water rushing over the rocks in the river was peaceful and calming. Sally's continental breakfast with homemade banana bread and fresh papaya and bananas from her yard was served on the lanai where we could watch for whales while we relaxed before venturing out for the day. We also enjoyed meeting and being greeted by her dogs and cats. Maui is a beautiful island and Sally's place should be on your list if you are looking for a quiet peaceful place to begin your Maui adventure.

Our stay with Sally was delightful. Her delightful home is in a quite but beautiful part of Maui less frequently visited by tourists. We had a wonderful time.

What can I say-this place is like heaven! Sally is so warm and welcoming! Her home is beautiful and set away from the typical crowded tourist traps. You can hear a river right next to the house and the crashing of the waves from the ocean. Her property is lovely with beautiful plants and fruit trees set against the back drop of the mountains. The bed was very comfortable and the breakfast provided was AMAZING!!! This was the first time my mother (who is very picky and is 72) stayed at a B&B and she was very nervous-but I had a hard time getting her to leave in the morning! I cannot thank Sally enough and I will most definitely book with her next time I'm visiting from Oahu! Mahalo!!!!

My girlfriend and I stayed 1 night at Sally's house. The house was beautiful, located in a calm and spectacular aera - between moutains and sea. The room was nice, clean and confortable, as seen and described on Airbnb. We had a good rest there after two nights in too-touristic Lahaina. Sally and her husband Brian were very warm and welcoming. In the morning, Sally prepared us a delightful breakfast with exotic fruits. During all our stay, she was really caring. The communication was always good and fast by email. We still wish we could have stayed much longer. So we would highly recommand Sally's house to travellers going to Maui island.

Sally was great. Very kind and welcoming. She makes you feel like you are staying at a friend's house. The house is great. Beautiful area. Short drive to anything you need. The pillows are awesome and there are plenty of them. The bed was nice. I would definitely stay there again.

We only spent 1 night here, and we absolutely loved it! Wish I had been here longer. The room we got was basic, with everything we needed for one night. The scene was amazing. From the 2nd floor balcony, we could see the mountain and the sea, and it was a view not to be missed. There was also a pool that would probably be nice to enjoy. And a lot of spaces in general. Sally was very friendly and welcoming, even though we came late at 12am :) Thank you for a good stay Sally!

Absolutely fantastic! Only wished we had stayed there for our whole trip. Welcoming instructions were amazing and helpful. So peaceful and beautiful.

Sally and Brian were amazing hosts for our first couple nights in Maui. Their place is very relaxed and tranquil but only a short drive to the endearing town of Wailuku and the main drag that will get you to all parts of Maui! They had great info on where to eat, the best beaches, and also gave us great insider knowledge on where to camp on the island. The space is private and feels very homey. Brian is an artist and gave us info for an amazing art show he was in! Sally's breakfast was local, homemade and such a great taste of the island. The room had an amazing binder with any other info needed about the island and the house. We were really lucky to have such great hosts and would recommend them to anyone seeking a relaxing place with big-hearted hosts!

Great location, close to the airport. It is an amazing place to stay, in a not touristy place and you will be escaping from city living - which was perfect for us! You will sleep in a big and very comfy bed. You can make breakfast and eat take away food in the rum. The hosts are very welcoming and helpfull if you need anything. Highly recommend staying here!

We had an amazing time in Maui at this listing! Thank you Shannon and Michelle!

Shannon and Michelle, have a great landing spot for Maui adventures

we are so happy of have stayed in his home. Is beautiful, spacious and near the market. Shanon and his family are very lovely and always help us in things that we need (towels, beach chair, etc)The room was very clean and has a freezer which is amazing.

This was exactly what we were looking for. It's a cozy little unit with a comfortable bed and decent shower. Having the lawn chairs to use was a bonus. We used them to watch the sunset at Mt Haleakala.

Shannon's place it's very nice, clean and affordable. Perfect location ... The bed it's super comfortable and I had everything I needed it. Over all it's great place to stay with a very nice host! Mahalo

beautiful apartment, ideally located in Maui the hosts are super nice. there against by not cooking facilities.

The location was perfect, few minutes drive to the center of town with shops and food, five minute walk to the beach, about 15 min from the airport, Iao Valley and hiking trails! Michelle and her family were excellent hosts and very response with questions and coordinating. The space itself is perfect for two people, it's clean, beautifully decorated and the king sized bed is the most comfortable bed i've ever slept on! Unfortunatly I only spent two nights here as I had to fly back to the mainland but I would highly recommend this space, it's clean, cozy, in a perfect location and Michelle and her family were great hosts, I wish we had more time together!

Hi! Staying at Leila's condo in Lahaina was my first ever AirBnB stay! Leila was accessible. She responded to any questions I had very quickly. She was always helpful! Her condo was amazing! Very clean, just as described, and I loved the location! Woke up to so much sunlight! A great view of the ocean! Had breakfast on our patio everyday! There is a cool breeze that will make you never want to leave! As for drive, it was less than an hour from Kahului Airport and the drive to several beaches were less than 10 minutes, I would highly recommend staying at Leila's!! It was a great experience!! Thanks again, Leila!

Beautiful lovely house! We really enjoyed our stay and believe it is perfect for everyone looking for a beautiful quite place on the west side of maui.

We loved this place. We like to hike and the Kapalua Resort has plenty of hiking trails available. And when it rained for two days, we had a great place to hang out and watch old movies! Everything you need, very comfortable and pretty. We used the A/C for only one night (I don't like air conditioning) because the design of the louvered windows meant we could control the breeze that constantly flowed through the house, keeping us cool.

Leila was an excellent host. We had a delayed flight and did not arrive to the condo until 1:30am. Easy to find. Easy to access. Excellent amenities. Beautiful view! Quiet. Very responsive to any questions. Location is awesome! Walking distance to beaches, restaurants, etc. or easy & FREE shuttle (5-10 minute wait) in the Kapalua area. We are looking forward to working with her again in the near future.

Leila's place is truly amazing. A very clean, well equiped and beautiful place for our stay on Maui. The view from the terrace was great. I would recommend friends to stay here and if ever be back in Maui, I would reach out to Leila again!

Can't speak highly enough of the house, great location. House was immaculate, owners were helpful and got in touch with us to make sure all was ok. Great value for money and would highly recommend!

This house is wonderful! It is one of the best Airbnb experiences ever. Beautiful neighborhood, very nice apartment (big, elegant and comfortable) with everything you may need. Everything was perfect: car park, easy access, beautiful views, two fantastic bathrooms, garden and terrace, etc. Definitely top!

The place was perfect for us, we went to wholefoods and got our supplies for the week. Was able to do our own cooking and relax at the beach everyday. Not alot of food choice around the area for breakfast/lunch so recommend doing own shop.

Host made us feel welcome, description was accurate, and the neighborhood is a quiet suburban community. There isn't much to walk to but that is okay. We really appreciates being able to borrow some beach stuff like bookie boards an umbrella. The space was incredibly clean and very cozy. Bathroom was a good size and it was well stocked. I didn't have any complaints about our stay.

George and Lisa's place is great! Walking distance to the beach! Fell asleep to the crashing waves. The kitchettette is a bit small but it worked out just fine for my wife and I. We microwaved leftovers, had a small fridge to store our food, had a small coffee maker, a small toaster oven, and pretty good sized electric tea kettle. The location was pretty centralized from Wailea, Lahaina, and pretty close to Paia. Overall, it was clean, quiet, and lovely for our first time in Maui~

This was my favorite stay during my time here in Maui! The home is located in a residential area, and it is very quiet. It is easy to go to bed as soon as the sun goes down and wake up as the sun rises. The stars are easily visible on this part of the island. The house was beautiful. It was decorated in a matter where I felt like family was having me stay over. Movies and a television are provided if you plan to turn in early and order a pizza. Also, they were very quick with responses whenever I needed anything. 120% accommodating and friendly. I would definitely come back and reserve a stay with them in the future.

Nice place, clean and really close to the beach.

My son and I had a great stay here. Everything was perfect! George and Lisa were very helpful.

I booked this spot for my aunt and grandma and they LOVED it!!! Wonderful spot, good for getting everywhere. One level which worked very well for my eldest guests:)

Beautiful home. We had a wonderful experience and Lisa was an amazing and helpful host. Thank you!

Thank you Lisa for the lovely rental and being so helpful! For the price, the amenities in the condo are so much better than staying at a hotel. It's a great central location from which to explore the rest of Maui. My mom very much enjoyed her 77th birthday party and luau. I hope to return to Maui soon.

The most beautiful view ever !!! Highly recommended

What a great place! Very convenient location, yet secluded and private. The house was immaculate, and beautiful! My family had their dream stopover vacation on Maui to end our Hawaiian vacation - we wish we had spent our whole time here. We'll definitely be back next year. A+++

WOW! This has been my best AirBNB experience...EVER! The pictures don't do it justice. The place is a true Hawaiian paradise. The house is a huge property full of fruit trees and a stream that runs through it. There is a great place to just relax and listen to the birds, water and breeze. We got coconuts and mangoes straight from trees on the property. The location feels like you are completely secluded, yet is only minutes from it all. Sarah is an amazing host. She is better than a hotel concierge. She gave us hiking tips, told us where to find the best beaches and even recommended great restaurants. Nice that the place has extras like a barbecue, beach chairs and a bike to use. We have been to Hawaii several times and for the first time it felt local and authentic. A magical trip all-around. This is the Hawaii of everyone's dreams. You will not be disappointed.

View from condo great. Well furnished, had plenty of towels, soap. Bring shampoo. Kitchen had everything you needed outside spices. Private and cozy. Overall location was great as it was within walking distance to beach and restaurants

If you are looking for a place to stay that feels like home, with a view that takes your breath away, this is the place to reserve. My family and I loved it!!

Very comfortable with a beautiful view and close to amazing beaches. Janet was very accommodating and had good communication. I definitely recommend this condo.

The host was rude and unwelcoming with my first and only call. Once my wife and I had arrived in the vicinity of the building, I called the host to verify the number of the building since the instructions listed the place as 16-24. The host was irritated with my call and asserted I was the first to call since the building was unit 24, which made no sense. In short, the place was the 16 building and the 1624 unit, info that you cannot infer from 16-24.

Really enjoyed our time at this villa, wonderful views with a great deck for eating meals on and watching the whales.

The place was beautiful!! What a view! I felt like a celebrity staying here. Great location. Grocery store, and a few restaurants to choose from nearby, fish tacos, Thai restaurant, Mamas bbq. Close access to a great beach and we saw some turtles and exotic fish. I'd definitely stay here again anytime.

The home location, view, and Kapalua were amazing. The smell was overbearing and needs to be tended to. The pillows all smell like mildew/must. The ventilation needs attention, as a fan is missing in the bathroom. The washer balancing is out, and it needs replacing as it will not spin without significant noise. If the smell was tended to, I would rate 5/5. View, location, beaches, and everything (other than the smell) were amazing. The kitchen window latch was broken and the window doesn't lock, but there were no theft issues. It was a great family vacation, with most of the time spent on the lanai(s) and around the island. I would return with some new pillows, ventilation, and repaired window. Great customer service, and prompt responses.

Great apartment with a stunning view and very affordable. I highly recommend it.

The place is located at the peaceful location in the Lahaina, Maui. Beaches and restaurants are located nearby the place. The unit is as good as shown in the picture, We family of 4 really enjoyed the peace and nature of wonderful Maui island. We wish to come back to the same place soon in the near future.

Great location and nice place to stay. Overall we enjoyed our time there!

The unit was everything we needed, great value! The pool was even slightly heated, and great views of the golf course, relaxing to watch the players go by.

This stay was really enjoyable. We had very good communication from our host. We were given detailed instructions and directions about arriving and directions to the property. We found location clean, well organized, fully supplied with bedding, towels, shower amenities. We requested information about pool entrance via text and received a response from Tatiana immediately. All appliances functional and up to date. Location very close to the multiple beautiful beaches, great restaurants and Ritz-Carlton. Plenty of fun swimming in the neighborhood pool and playing golf . There amazing views from the multiple windows in the property. People who live there were very friendly and hospitable toward us.We liked the fact that we were able to check out @ 1 pm. It was very convenient. Thank you for the hosting us Tatiana, we would highly recommend this location.

The host canceled this reservation 158 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
