We stayed here during our honeymoon in Hawaii, and it truly couldn’t have been more perfect. The property was spotless, beautifully maintained, and had that peaceful island charm that made it feel like our own little paradise. We loved waking up to the sound of the ocean, having coffee on the lanai, and watching the sunset each evening.The location was ideal — close enough to great beaches, restaurants, and shops, but still tucked away enough to feel private and relaxing. We made so many special memories here and can’t wait to come back. We would love to rent this place out again someday — it truly felt like our own little piece of paradise. Highly recommend this rental to anyone visiting Hawaii!

Great location beach cottage
We stayed a week in this cute beach front cottage. It is central located with walking distance to restaurants, surfing lessons, groceries and shops. The owner/host was easily get in touch with and accommodated us with early check in since we had a very early flight in. The view is beautiful and we watched sunset every day from our lanai.

Over all great time. You will loose your parking spot almost every time you leave as it is next to beach access.

Just what we needed....
A fantastic place to recharge and reconnect. We've stayed in Kihei many times so we know the area pretty well. This was the perfect spot. Almost no need to leave the property. We bbq'd and watched the sunset almost every evening. Went swimming in the ocean every morning. Walked over and rented surf boards to surf in the cove a couple of mornings. Went on several excursions around the island but always made it back to sit out on the lānai and watch the sunset in the evening. Mahalo.
