We stayed at Entabeni Cottage in Hana for our honeymoon and could not have asked for a better experience. Terry and Michael were wonderful hosts. They were warm, responsive, and shared great recommendations on local places to visit and things to do. The property is beautiful and perfectly secluded. The gardens are stunning and the ocean view is spectacular. Fresh eggs and garden herbs were a wonderful treat. We wished we could have stayed longer. This is the perfect spot for anyone looking for peace, beauty, and genuine Hawaiian hospitality. We highly recommend it.

Terrys cottage is very charming and includes everything you need for a short or extended stay. The washer/dryer came in very handy. The fresh eggs for breakfast were delicious and convenient since you’re pretty far away from any restaurants (which we knew). The gardens are beautiful and the view was amazing. There is no air conditioning (which we knew) but the ocean breeze kept us very comfortable. I did use the the mosquito netting over the bed because small knats did get through the screens. My husband didn’t feel them at all. Terry gave us a full walk through and showed us where everything was and even offered a tour of the grounds. If you would like to stay on the Road to Hana, I would recommend this cottage for a short stay.

Unfortunately we have to write a bad review. After arriving late in the dark, there was a note taped to the front door of the cottage. No keys or keypad. We told the owners the next morning we would be not staying on the property only to sleep there. Our plans were to stay with family in Hana. So at that point when we left, they went through the cottage.The next night when we arrived back to the cottage, the doors were all opened. We knew we had shut the doors in the morning. The owners NEVER said they would be coming in to check up on us. They went in and opened all the doors. Never minding to pick up the dead cockroaches. We had valuables, shopping items, money and gifts. They told VRBO they do it to everyone that stays there . They check to see if you’ve left water running, doors shut or if you’ve hung up your bath towels. I really don’t see what business it is to them. You’re paying a price to stay there. My other family members NEVER HAD the owners checking up on them. I feel it was an invasion of privacy.I give them no stars for respect, courtesy or being honest with us. We will not return to their property ever again. When I approached VRBO, they said there was nothing they could do about it. I left a text message and they never responded. I was told they would call me that evening but never did. There’s better places to stay…

ENCHANTING and MAGICAL!!! We stayed at several different places on the Big Island and Maui, and this was far and away our favorite place. I haven’t slept so good or soundly in years. The heavenly scent of the tropical garden and ocean breeze will calm you during the day and lull you sleep at night. We spent a full day of our time in Hana just relaxing at the cottage, watching the ocean from the main room (combination bedroom/living room), and inhaling the perfume from the garden. Terry and Michael are amazing people. They are both extremely knowledgeable of the all the tropical flora - if you like plants even a little bit, you will be astounded by the variety of species they have cultivated on the property. Terry was also extremely communicative and helpful in preparing to come visit. Do yourself a favor and read everything she sends you carefully - Hana is remote with limited shopping and dining options, as well as limited cell service, so being prepared in advance will make a big impact on the comfort and serenity of your stay. They have beach chairs, boogie boards and snorkeling gear available, but we didn’t use any of it because we didn’t want to leave the cottage. We didn’t want to leave, period. We’re sending any of our friends and family coming to Maui here. I have never been in a place so beautiful and serene. Thank you, Michael and Terry, for a sublime experience.

This property meets all of the requirements we had during our stay, being clean, safe, and beautiful. It was much more than that, however. It was inspiring and felt like it was sprinkled with a little magic. The hospitality was lovely and we felt like we got a glimpse at authentic small-town Hawaiian life. Fantastic.

A beautiful, private, well kept oasis, away from all the noise. A perfect place to relax, reflect and rejuvenate. The cottage is bigger than it looks, and comes with everything you need to stay comfortable and/or enjoy the land and water. I'd recommend more than just a couple of nights here to really gain the East Maui experience. The location is central to everything East Maui has to offer. Our trip here was both magical and spiritual, and we'll never forget the love and care we received from Terry and Michael. With much Aloha, Ned and Katrina
Entabeni holds the key to rejuvenation and adventure.
Pictures of the gardens can't capture it's true beauty.
The driveway to the cottage is dreamy.
The garden is well kept and you get a free tour if you're interested in plants.

Tucked away but easy to find, our experience at the cottage was truly extraordinary. We stopped at the cottage to spend the night while driving the road to Hana. Terry greeted us upon arrival to give us an introduction to the cottage. The 6 acre property is a former flower farm that Terry and Michael have turned into a sumptuous garden. The cottage is nestled on the mountain facing the ocean. They have thought of everything including fresh eggs from their chickens and delicious Maui grown coffee. There is a cozy nook to read and a panoramic view,of the ocean below. There is a place for everything. If you go, we encourage you to bring your own food to cook a meal because the kitchen is well stocked so you can cook. We would’ve liked to stay another day. Highlights of our trip included a wonderful tour of the gardens. If you love plants and flowers, you will be astonished at the wide variety of extraordinary plants and flowers on the property. We were able to explore the gardens on our own after our arrival. But Terry’s tour and meeting and speaking with Michael was absolutely a highlight. The cottage does not allow animals, but there are three cats and a dog on the property that are excellent tour companions through the garden.Our stay at Entabeni Cottage was a highlight of our wonderful trip to Hawaii. Terry and Michael made us feel so welcome. We had privacy as well. We highly recommend the outdoor shower. We will be back!

We loved this property! So peaceful and relaxing. Everything you will need for a restful vacation is here. Terry and Michael are terrific hosts! They shared their knowledge of the garden/Maui life with us! The cottage is surrounded by gorgeous tropical plants and trees! So relaxing! The interior is beautifully decorated and stocked with everything you will need to prepare meals. We enjoyed having coffee each morning looking out at the ocean while sitting in the living room area with the doors open listening to the birds, a great way to start the day!The cottage is located near Hana, the black sand beach, plus a few more beaches we visited on several occasions and a number of neat places to stop for burgers, pizza, ice cream, smoothies and more! If you're looking to unwind and relax in a tropical environment, this cottage is for you! We enjoyed our stay and if we make it back to Maui, this will be our go to home away from home!

Beautiful gardens. Fresh eggs, tomatoes and basil. Interesting cat that seems to want to be friendly, but then sat outside and meowed for hours to come in. A bit of spring cleaning needed - cobwebs, window cleaning. Bed sheets need replacing - no elastic left in fitted sheet. Overall a very cute. Quiet and private. Gardens were fantastic (world class), and the ocean view was beautiful. Worth coming back. No question.

Two nights for relaxed completion of Road to Hana

This was our first visit to Maui and the highlight was driving the Road to Hana. Having done our research, we knew that this wasn’t something we’d want to rush. I approximated our drive over two days with sites to visit along the way (black sand beach, Lindbergh’s grave, rainbow eucalyptus trees, waterfalls, etc.) and determined that this property would be an excellent “half-way” place to stay. Upon booking, I received a friendly response from Terry providing detailed information about how to locate the property, where to stop to gather food for our stay, things to do in the area, etc. to aid in our planning. All instructions were super helpful.We arrived to the property around 6pm, finding that the gate had been left open for us. When we pulled up and honked our horn as instructed, we were greeted by sweet doggo, Star. Terry promptly greeted us and showed us around, pointing out some of the unique features of the property (outdoor shower, tankless water heater, etc.) Owners Terry and Michael have thoughtfully provided many items that could be useful to those traveling, including body boards, beach chairs, towels for use at the beach, etc. The accommodation itself was adequate for our needs- a comfortable bed, a hot shower, kitchen facilities, secure parking, wifi, and privacy. (Caution: mosquitoes and other pests are abundant. It’s the tropics.)Appreciate Terry and Michael’s hospitality. Hoping to tour their property and Michael’s art studio should we return some day.
