About this property

Note: We are a Legal Vacation Rental since 1970's. 

TA-160-886-7840-01

This is a PRIVATE BEACHFRONT SINGLE FAMILY HOUSE!  PROPERTY IS FRONTED BY A HAND BUILT LAVA ROCK WALL, FOR SECURITY AND PRIVACY.

 We offer you and your family a True Hawaiian Home, built in 1960'S!  It is very hard to find an original house, especially with approximately an acre lawn and BEACHFRONT.  They are nearly obsolete. Your walk to the Beach is just across the manicured lawn. (approx.100') Our home has been upgraded, but all of the Hawaiian charm still remains. With so much building going on in Maui, it is hard to find a  safe property that has stayed close to original. Families and children love the SAFE property, the games we offer, Croquet, bag toss, beach toys, Boogie boards, beach chairs, beach towels and lounges. 

This home has individually controlled air conditioning, in each room.  There are also ceiling fans in each room. The kitchen is fully stocked with almost everything you should need. If you are feeling you are lacking something in the kitchen, please let us know!

A large Lanai is a wonderful way to spend the day. Ocean views, (seasonal Whale Watching, November-March, and Large green sea turtles love to sleep on our beach. Nightly(almost) viewing is a  wonderful surprise for all to see. Please, do not shine flashlights on the turtles, or touch them. Please stay 10 feet away from the turtles. They may not return is they feel threaten. If they are inter family dining or a great BBQ. Gas BBQ is included.

Our uncrowded beach is located approximately 100' from the house. A short walk across the very spacious and impeccably maintained lawn area, and your toes are in the sand! There are approximately 36 palms trees located on the property. There is also a huge 120+ year old Banyan tree!  Be sure to bring your camera! The lawn area is great for sunbathing, sitting on the lawn in the chaise lounges shaded by the many trees, or playing family games. We provide beach sand chairs, beach towels and miscellaneous children's beach toys, including boogie boards, sand chairs and lounges. There is a large BBQ (propane) for your use.

 There is a Queen bed in the main bedroom, 2nd bedroom has  2 twin beds which can be made into a king bed, if you prefer. Please just let us know prior to your arrival so we can have it ready for your arrival. There is also a very comfortable queen sized Murphy bed in the great room, which can sleep 2 more guests.

 Our beach gets very little usage, as we are located in a residential area, no big hotels and condo complexes to share with. A large portion of the lawn area is maintained by our gardeners and some of it is State land and can be shared by others.

This 2 bedroom 2 bath home is adjacent to our 4 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath,  which is also on our property. Our property is 150 wide, and very private. If you would like to rent both homes, that certainly can be done. If you are interested in renting both of our homes (on the same 150 foot-wide property), this is the deal of a lifetime! The adjacent home can be viewed on VRBO/73607.  

If both homes are rented at the same time, we can accommodate 16 guests!!  

You will have 6 BEDROOMS AND 5 BATHROOMS, 2 KITCHENS AND MORE. BOTH HOMES ARE BEACHFRONT, WITH VIEWS OF THE OCEAN. PLEASE ASK ABOUT OUR BEST PRICING.

This is a wonderful property for large family reunions, birthdays and anniversaries. Everyone loves it here! These homes have so much to offer.

(SORRY NO WEDDINGS OR RECEPTIONS, THANK YOU)

A short walk down the street will take you to the middle of Kihei Town. You will find shopping centers, restaurants, grocery stores, Post Office, Kaiser, Banks. Fast food such as McDonalds, Taco Bell, and Local Fare restaurants and so much more . You will find just about everything you will need, including food stores, bars, breweries , entertainment, all with in walking distance!

To the northwest, the West Maui Mountains can be viewed. You will be able to view all of the large Windmills and the hill. Lanai, Molokini and other Islands can be seen from the property. The area is also used for surfing, windsurfing, kayaking, paddle-boarding, fishing and canoeing. The mornings are usually the best time for a calm ocean and small waves. The trade winds do usually pick up in the afternoon, and cools the air. We do recommend wearing beach shoes for easy walking and swimming. Depending on the winds, many things can wash ashore. The sand can also be very hot.

The home is facing to the West, which means you will see some of the most beautiful sunsets on the Island. Depending on the time of the year (usually, between November and March) whales can usually be seen and heard beyond the reef.  This is a wonderful experience for the children and adults alike!  Please do not touch the turtle while they are asleep on the beach. No strong flashlight at night, they don't like the light and may not return.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW THAT WE ARE A LEGAL VACATION RENTAL PROPERTY FOR SHORT TERM RENTALS. OUR TRANSIENT ACCOMMODATIONS TAX NUMBER IS :

This is just a charming home with vintage beach character. The location is perfect and the basically private beach is surreal! We saw so many sea turtles during our time here and not too many people! Host was very easy to contact and he checked in with us, but never had any problems or need to contact him. House was very well supplied. Highly recommend!

Despite the once in 50 year storm we had a lovely relaxing time and the location is ideal. Our host was very attentive and we enjoyed ourselves very much. Everything you need is on site.

This was truly an old time Hawaiian experience. The home felt like a beach bungalow vacation of a bygone era. Beautiful grassy yard, private beach and sea turtles visited every evening after sunset. A touching experience to see such creatures in their natural environment. The home is quaint and comfortable. My husband and I were cozy … each of us having our own bathroom! Coffee in the mornings and wine in the evening on the patio listening to the birds, the surf, and the peace of nature was reenergizing for us. We stayed two weeks. Sadly the Kona Low storm struck while we were there, but nature is what it is! We played games, hunkered down and made the best of it. Brian and Mitzi were gracious hosts … they recognized my husband’s birthday with a thoughtful card, balloons and wine! SO very special. We loved our time here in paradise!

We had a wonderful stay at Brian’s place. The house was exactly as shown in the pictures—clean, comfortable, and well maintained. One of the best features is the location: the beach is less than 100 feet away and easily walkable. We were lucky enough to see turtles come up on the beach right in front of the house, which was an unforgettable experience.There is a beautiful large banyan tree on the property that attracts many birds, so you wake up each morning to birds chirping—it was incredibly peaceful and relaxing. Grocery stores and great food trucks are just a 5–10 minute drive away, making everything very convenient.Brian was an excellent host—very responsive and attentive. When we had a minor maintenance issue, he sent a handyman promptly and it was taken care of right away. Overall, this was a fantastic stay and we would absolutely recommend this property to others and would love to return ourselves

Fantastic property. This property is better than described on VRBO. Very nice and comfortably inside but even better out back. Direct access to a usable beach in an extremely spacious backyard where you can look at the huge trees, birds, mongoose, beach and sunset. And of course, the parade of sea turtles that come out like clockwork about 10 minutes after sunset. Every night roughly 20 of them come out and visit within feet of where you sit on the beach.

This property was great! Being right on the beach with the turtles was amazing! We enjoyed days on the beach and sunsets on the patio. It felt pretty private, and the he beach wasn’t heavily trafficked. This unit was exactly what we hoped for!

This home was heaven! You had me at turtles but it was so much more. Lovely home, perfect location (near food and the heart of Kihei) the porch and yard were a sanctuary, clean and well appointed. Best rest I have had in years. Thank you for sharing this home.

Adorable cottage beach house that fit our family of six perfectly. The large outdoor grass area was fun for family games as provided by the owner. Great supplies for beach play including towels, toys, chairs and umbrellas. The views are spectacular, location and access and great, and the turtle welcome on our first morning was hesrtwarming. Couldbt have been a better experience and fun time for our four year old grandsons first Maui experience. We all gelt at home and welcome here..including chairs, umbrellas,

The view from this home is what it is all about...Huge Banyan tree, perfectly manicured yard, and a view of the ocean, across the large yard. Nice large lanai to sit and enjoy it all. The croquet set was a fun addition.... The home worked for the 5 of us. It may be better suited for 4 people, as you need to move furniture to drop the murphy bed in the living room each day. (not a complaint, just thought others might want to consider this) The location on the island is perfect. Very easy to get anywhere. We stayed our last 4 days in Kaanapali, and this is by far the most convenient part of the island. Brian was a great host and responded quickly to any concerns. We would recommend this home, and will return, if possible.

We stayed for a week with two of our older sons. Everyone really enjoyed the house, and it was super convenient for groceries, shopping, getting to beaches and activities, etc. We also saw lots of wildlife, including turtles and seals.

Contact with Brian was excellent. Air conditioning was nice. The home was spotless and even smelled freshly cleaned on arrival. The kitchen was well supplied with all we needed. The gas grill was a great amenity. I would recommend using ziploc bags for all your food you have opened. The home is decorated nicely. It's beautiful inside and out. We appreciate the outdoor seating areas and spent a lot of time on the lanai. The yard is meticulously cared for and the landscape is beautiful to include the large banyan tree. The adjoining property was rented to a large family, but we hardly ever saw them. A short walk through the yard led to gorgeous beach area. Occasionally people walk by but for the most part it was your own private beach. The sand is very soft. There is lots of coral coming in so if you plan to go in the water you will definitely want water shoes. We had high surf and wind warnings during our stay but we really thought snorkeling would be good had that not been the case. Let's talk sea turtles. From the reviews, they were mentioned as being on the beach. It was incredible there were over a dozen turtles that came in every night and sunset and left at sunrise. Such a cool experience. Lots of food options nearby. Must have Huli Huli chicken that is nearby. So GOOD! We had a lot of shave ice but our favorite was Ululani's Shave ice that was nearby. The lines are long but so good. Thank you Brian and Mitz for sharing your home.

Seriously, we got home and looked at my husbands computer 'stock background' and it was the view from this place. If you're looking for great view, great beach and a house exactly as described, you've found perfect. We loved the homey feel of the house, the layout was great for my elderly parents and us (middle age). Brian never got annoyed with my questions that he had already answered, was quick to respond and when my father broke 3 ribs 3 weeks before the trip he was willing to work with me on a solution. A great place (the house next door looked great too for bigger groups!).

Wonderful location! Enough room for everyone. Loved seeing the turtles every morning on the beach and turn around and look at the Maui sunrise at the same time with the palms as a backdrop. So gorgeous. Was great to have some essentials we were allowed to use as well like a cooler, beach chairs, noodles, beach towels. Came in handy.

We were looking for a property with a vintage surf cottage feel in a great location and this was a perfect fit. The amenities including beach equipment, games, and kitchen/bath supplies were all well stocked and in good condition. We had a great stay and would definitely return.
