About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Grateful Casita
Welcome to our humble Grateful Casita — a standalone one-bedroom, one-bathroom retreat that is entirely yours.
Grateful Casita is a fully detached standalone retreat — no one above you and no one below you. Entirely your own private space with two entrances, your own dedicated driveway for two cars, and the kind of stillness that invites you to slow down and breathe.
Step outside and you're surrounded by coconut trees, with mango trees gracing the backyard and colorful flowers welcoming you at the front. Privacy is lovingly covered by mature Eureka trees, creating your own garden sanctuary.
Guests consistently tell us the shower alone is worth the stay — a luxurious rainfall experience with good water pressure that washes away the tiredness from long travel. Pair that with a comfortable king size bed and you may never want to leave!
Grateful Casita is a guest favorite — and as four-year Superhosts, Hannahmarie and Shawn bring the same warmth, attention, and aloha spirit to every guest who walks through our door.
This humble casita sleeps up to three guests and sits in the heart of Kihei, steps from Maui's beloved ocean, beaches, and local dining. Come rest here. Come breathe here. Come feel what it means to be truly grateful for this beautiful life.
