E Komo Mai to the Aloha Cottage at Puamana! We have taken pride into making this our best hale yet! We absolutely know that you and your ohana are going to love it! We spared no expenses when doing a complete gut and remodel of this 2 bedroom 2 bathroom Puamana condo. We took risks and wanted to ensure that this unit was our dream home and unique in every way imaginable.
We are centrally located in Puamana, a gated 35 acre community in the heart of Lahaina town, at the South end of the world famous Front Street Lahaina! We are less than a 2 minute walk to the waters edge and beach access which is unique in Puamana. Carry your beach chairs (provided by us) and a sunset cocktail to the large grassy lawn to watch sunset every evening while watching surfers at the amazing surf break called Hot Sands. We are a 30 second walk to the Dolphin Pool which is right through a grassy path in front of our home. This makes it easy for a quick dip in the pool every morning and evening. Our unit is near the road, however, we took this into account during our remodel. We installed double pane windows, central AC with separate room units, all new insulation and drywall, black out blinds and curtains in the loft and bedrooms, and have a water feature on the back lanai.
During our remodel we wanted to have a feel for a classy beach home with a touch of farmhouse. The best of both worlds in our opinion! We have shiplap walls we installed, a large porcelain farm sink in the kitchen, carrera marble countertops, and floating Mango wood shelves straight from uncles farm in Hana, Maui. We have all brand new GE Artistry appliances that resemble those from the 60s era and a floating stainless steel range hood. We installed an ice maker and water filtration system perfect for your cocktail using the Ninja blender. We have a love for fresh fruit smoothies so we couldn’t skimp on the blender. Go pick Mangos from the 3 large Mango trees on the property and add them to your blended drink for a daily refresher straight from the ‘aina (land). We have a kureig coffee maker, because who doesn’t these days! You don’t want to have to wait too long for your morning coffee to sit on the back lanai with.
The back lanai is larger than the majority of other Puamana units and has all hand carved teak furniture straight from the island of Bali. With many sitting spots to choose from you can have your Puamana ohana over for a BBQ. There is cafe lighting and a large market umbrella to make the lanai enjoyable all hours of the day. There is also an outdoor shower perfect for rinsing off after surfing Hot Sands (less than a 2 minute walk from the condo). We even have beach chairs, sand toys, a beach umbrella, beach towels, boogie boards and snorkel equipment for your use during your stay.
The main living room has a wall mounted 65” smart tv, plenty of seating with an open floor concept, perfect for watching movies while entertaining. The wall collage has all things Maui and lots of ALOHA! There is even a reading nook to feel like you can escape into a good book. Serve wine from the wine fridge and wine closet to your friends and family!
The guest bathroom is one of my statement rooms with the pineapple wallpaper perfect for...

The property is as advertised and in the perfect family-friendly community. We slept like royalty! The backyard area is perfect for lunch after a day at the beach, including the outdoor shower. Communication with the owner was always prompt and clear. We would absolutely return!

The perfect location for our crew to get away, relax, and take in the beautiful island! Location is perfect for quick access to beautiful Lahaina and an easy drive to everywhere else on our itinerary. Kitchen is lovely and had everything we needed. The back porch was also beautiful. Just a few minutes walk to the ocean. Thank you!!

Nice rental with a great location that has quick access to a beach and several swimming pools. Lahaina itself is a short car drive or long walk from the property, but definitely close enough to be very convenient. Very nice experience.

We had everything we needed in this charming, adorably decorated, immaculate home. If I have a complaint, it is that the listing makes it seem right on the beach. It’s not at all. The community is on the ocean front but it’s a walk from this home. And the beach isn’t really one you can spend time on. But it’s near many beautiful beaches and was a great place to come home to.

Upon booking, Ryan was very thorough in sharing all details for our upcoming stay. The home was cute and looks like it does in photos. There were a few issues, the bed in the Master being broken for the first night, however Ryan was quick to respond and had it fixed within a 24 hour period. Some of the other issues that we found we could live with since it was a short trip. Overall, had most of what we needed. The home is 35 minutes from the airport, about 20 minutes from Ka’anapali Beach and less than 10 minutes from the main strip (Front St), including Foodland.

We spent eleven wonderful days in this charming, sweet cottage. Loved every second of it. The patio was our dining room. The kids adored their private upstairs retreat. The AC was awesome. And the decor is super cute. The surrounding grounds are beautifully maintained and the cottage is literally steps to the beach. You can actually hear the waves while laying in bed or out on the patio. Location was also excellent. LOVED EVERY BIT OF IT!

The Aloha cottage is a great location and was a great place for my family of four to rest up at night. We had leisurely breakfasts in the morning in the kitchen and enjoyed the beach and pool that are close by! The location in Lahaina made it easy to get many locations across the island.

We had a tremendous time in Maui and the accommodations were excellent. The property was very clean and just a short walk to the beach. The location was a plus as downtown Lahaina was a short distance....where you had access to great restaurants and shopping. Ryan was easy to work with and responded timely. We will definitely consider staying at this location again. Thanks!
