Cute and cozy, perfect for just 2 people. The back area with the hammock was really nice for lounging in the mornings and afternoons.
10 / 10Outstanding·Nov 2025
Location was great and safe. Close to downtown and many things in walking distance. Cottage was very clean. Check in and out was very easy. Good sized parking space, easily fit our rental Jeep. Listing was extremely accurate. A great space for our Maui getaway! Would stay here again for sure!
10 / 10Outstanding·May 2025
We loved the privacy this place had. The beautiful back patio where we spent a lot of our mornings and evenings. It was a little further walk to the ocean than I anticipated but wasn’t too far. We loved our stay!
6 / 10Average·Dec 2023
Loved the patio area. Bathroom extremely small,,We are small people so I do not know how a large person could manage. Also two huge liabilities for the owner. The first being the step coming out of the bathroom. The second is the step from living area into the kitchen. As seniors we found them to be EXTREMELY dangerous !!! Mold in shower head, towel rack ready to fall off the wall, TV unable to watch for us ,as the sound needs to be repaired. Several huge roaches in the house .Neighbors extremely noisy!! Other than that, LOVED Hawaii and hated to leave. We really did enjoy our stay but thought the owner should be aware of the two steps before some gets seriously hurt.
