PLEASE READ PRIOR TO BOOKING: If you have more than 10 guests the cottage will need to be booked as Maui's rental permit law requires 2 guests per room. That being said, children under the age of 3 can stay with their parents in the same room and not count toward the occupancy rate. As the main house only has 5 rooms, it can only sleep 10 guests. To rent the cottage adds an extra $250 per night and has a $200 cleaning fee. If you do instant booking, the cottage will not be automatically booked, but it will be added through a payment request should your party be over 10 guests. Should your party include 10 guests + some children under the age of 3, it will be up to the owners discretion whether the cottage needs to be rented or not.
Also, please ask us about our payment options if you would like to pay over 2 or 3 installments.

GOLF
If you've come to maui to enjoy Golf, you've come to the right part of the island. Just a mile from the house is the Maui Nui Golf Club and less the 5 miles from the house are the Wailea Gold Course, Emerald Golf Course, and Wailea Blue Golf Course (each of which are fantastic and have amazing views of the ocean and surrounding countryside). I personally like golfing on the ...

We had a great time! The home was beautiful, clean and close to the beach! The home owner was very responsive and even gave us suggestions on some good snorkeling spot. If we make it Maui again we will definitely consider staying at this home again.

The big house is really, really nice. It has 3 levels with stairs, a huge kitchen and dining area, and a great porch that wraps all the way around the middle level. The vegetation surrounding the home is wonderful, and it creates a little Hawaiian oasis, with plenty of parking room for multiple vehicles in the driveway. By the way, there’s a mango tree on the property! There was a small problem with the cottage (which we also rented in order to have enough room for our large group), which was immediately taken care of by the host. We really appreciated the service and willingness of the host to go the extra mile to help us when this minor problem arose. Overall, this was a perfect place for our large family group to sleep, sit on the porch, cook large meals in the kitchen, and use the grill on the deck. You will not be disappointed with this big house.

Beautiful house with a great layout for big groups. Beach is a 3 minute walk perfect for evening sunsets. We also loved staying in Kihei with close proximity to airport, destinations, and stores. If we ever make it back to Maui we will rent this house again. Thank you!!

The house was beautiful, a short walk to great beach usually having only neighborhood people on it. Chris was exceptional as a host, immediately responsive to questions. The house book answered most questions, after we discovered it lol. My family of 12 and a little one had an awesome time and created forever memories. Thank you Chris! PT June 2024

My fiancé (now wife!), family and friends stayed here for 6 nights for our wedding and a vacation in paradise. It was the perfect location! Short walk to the beach, short drive to many great shops and restaurants and really not a bad drive to anywhere else on the island. All of the bedrooms are spacious and allowed for everyone to have their privacy. We also added the cottage which added even more space. Great patio and kitchen that was good for the group to gather and relax. The host, Chris, was great about communicating and made everything super simple for us.
11/10, would recommend!!

This home in Maui was so roomy and perfect for our large family! We loved how spacious the kitchen and adjoining living space was, as we gathered there often. The home is close to so many beautiful beaches as well as restaurants and grocery stores. We loved this location! Well stocked with everything you need for your stay. We also used the cottage and it was wonderful as well. The property is clean and well-maintained. Chris, the manager was super helpful and on top of any needs we had. Really the best trip we've ever had, and much of it because of this wonderful house!

Chris was very prompt in responding. The house definitely lends itself so very well for large groups.
All family and friends were very happy with the accommodations. Very, very pretty home and well appointed. The beach access was great. Just a short walk up the beach you are able to see sea turtles resting in the sun. We had relatives staying in the cottage on the property they seemed equally happy with the accommodations.
Would definitely inquire about Hoaloha Hale property again if we come back with a large group. Thank you Chris. You have a lovely property.
Best, Sallie

This property worked well for us and our 2 families with small children. As the grandparents, we stayed in the cottage while the other 4 adults and 4 grandchildren stayed in the main house. That separation worked very well for us. Both the house and cottage were well stocked for cooking, and there also was some equipment available for fun at the beach. The beach does have some coral, so water shoes are advisable. The Yale electronic locks made access easy for everyone. Restaurants and a grocery store are only about half a mile away. And we had very responsive communications with the owner.

So spacious, clean, and only two minutes away from the beach! 5 min from grocery, shops and restaurants! Rented the whole property, including the cottage for our wedding party of 11 adults and everyone felt fully accommodated. Plenty of beach gear and towels. Also very close to MisoPhat Sushi. Thanks Chris!

First off, the property manager Chris was the best host I've had experience with. Very helpful, responsive and generous. The property itself was just as advertised and housed the 12 of us very comfortably. The two houses were clean and the kitchens were well organized. An easy stroll to the beach.

When you book and invest in a vacation home rental, there’s always some nervousness about whether the actual house matches up to the marketing photos. This house is the Mecca of Awesome.
Combined with the cottage, our family of 12 had more than enough room to cohabitate. We enjoyed our morning coffee and breakfast on the deck. Every evening, many of us sat out on the deck, while some watched TV or played video games.
Kihei has a lot of great restaurants and shopping. You can also rent surfboard and other water sports items and go surfing or boarding on the beach. The water was warm. I would definitely recommend some beach shoes to avoid rocky bottoms in the water. And let’s not forget the turtles on the beach across the street from the house. So amazing. As I said, the Mecca of awesome. I would definitely come back with the family.
The host was wonderful and easy to talk to. Very accommodating to our needs. Good people.
What else can I say? We don’t want to leave.
PS-don’t miss out on Shave ice from Ululani’s. It’s like an ice cream sundae and snow cone in one.
