Price you see is what you pay. No added fees or taxes. Totally private so no face-to-face contact needed.
Contactless entry. Coded gate. No passing others in hallways, lobbies and elevators. Enjoy peace, quiet & privacy and a big deck and yard.
Escape the traffic and the touristy areas yet be right at the ocean watching sunrises and moon rises over the ocean, surfers, whales (in the winter), windsurfers and kite surfers. Our location is central to all the places you will want to go and we are at your service to share our knowledge and love of Maui.
The Space
Our cottage was built in 2012 and we welcomed our first guests in 2013. It has all appliances, comfy Serta bed, all-cotton bedding, pillows, towels, etc. Sliding mirrored doors separate the bedroom from main room. The cottage sits across from the beach below our upscale neighborhood and your only neighbor is a family on one side and us up the hill behind in the home we bought in 1999. 420 friendly.
Air-conditioning, washer and dryer, smart TV! And we have an AED in the main house, a Christmas gift from our son!
Cottage is stocked with everything youʻll need and more, including coffee, tea and condiments, snacks and breakfast sandwiches and butter in the freezer to get you started on breakfast. The list of what we provide is 2 pages long and it will be sent to you when you book so you see what you donʻt have to pack or buy. Snorkel gear, beach chairs, coolers, etc. in a storage bin on your deck and we can give you tips on good things to do and things to avoid.
Separate bedroom and bathroom has 2 doors so there is privacy if one person wants to sleep and the other stay up or get up. Plenty of room for two or for a family with a child who can sleep in a crib or toddler bed (available to rent from No Ka Oi Baby Rentals) or on the couch.
The area we are in is called 'Central Maui' because you can easily drive to everywhere else. Yet our particular location feels more like country with open beach and ocean in front and to the north. Be aware that there is no commercial business within walking distance but the beach and a golf course are there for pleasure walking!
Guest Access
Anywhere on the property. It is yours for the duration of your stay. My husband and son surf and with permission, cut through the yard to access the surf across the street.
Interaction with Guests
At the discretion of our guests. Some have become best friends; some we've never met.
The Neighborhood
Our neighborhood is upscale, our neighbors really friendly owners. The beach is right across the road in front of the cottage and when the surf is big, it's great to watch the surfers there. When there's no surf, the beach is empty. We love it both ways! It's not a swimming beach but those are a short drive away and by staying here, one avoids the touristy, hot, dusty surroundings of the beach cities
Getting around
A car really is recommended as only tour buses go up into the valleys and up to the top of Haleakalā.
Other Things to Note
We stayed in a B & B years ago in Switzerland and the women treated us like family and it had such a positive impact on us that we try to do the same and make our guests feel at home. On the other hand, you may want to just do your own thing and that's perfectly fine, too.

Woke up each morning looking out at the ocean. Lot's of equipment from boogie boards and snorkels to beach chairs, cooler and backpack. Not to mention the ground coffee and breakfast sandwiches for when we got up. Really enjoyed the week - thanks Gail!

Gail, Jordan and the Cottage are full of aloha. The Cottage is so well stocked it seemed as if we were house sitting. Add in great wave sounds, sights and a lovely locals beach across the road and you have a home away from home on Maui.

We stayed at Gail’s house for two weeks. She has thought of everything to make you feel welcomed. The furniture is very comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked. We spent at lot of time on the deck watching whales, surfers, cruise ships passing, stars and the moon. There is plenty to do close by. My favorites were Iao Needle and the beach down by the golf course. We also rented Jordan’s car which was a real savings for us. We hope to return next January.

Gail and Jordan’s cottage was the perfect place to relax and enjoy the ocean view while taking in the sun and breeze. They provided so many helpful items like beach towels and chairs that we didn’t have to travel with. They had helpful advice and tips, were very responsive and friendly hosts and we’d stay there again.

The communication was top notch. From how to navigate to the property to information about places and things to do. We stayed busy but enjoyed being able to come back daily to a warm comfortable home away from home. One the best places we have ever stayed in. The home was clean and situated in a wonderful neighborhood and just a few yards from the beach. So many details were taken care of by our host. Having warm clothes available just in case we wanted to go to the top of Haliaka, which we did do. To having a portable cooler and ice packs so we could hike and picnic and not feel like we had to eat out constantly while traveling around the island. Too many details to list. Definitely we felt the local Mahalo.

This was the perfect little local home to spend some much needed quiet time! Wonderful view of the beach from right inside, and wonderful yard with beautiful conconut trees with singing birds. Very centrally located and easy to get to a lot of different places in under 30 minutes! My hosts were wonderful and provided more than I could have ever hoped for. Hope to return again soon!
