Vacation Rental Details

Everything you've dreamt for your Maui Vacation is here. BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, THIS IS A LEGAL VACATION RENTAL PROPERTY. There are very few homes that can be legally rented for short-term vacations and those that cannot be are being shut down. Keep this in mind when selecting your rental!

This large estate home is nestled on the desirable sunny South Shore of Maui. And, it's right on the beach! This lovely traditional Hawaiian home was custom built for a prominent local family in 1946 and has been fully restored yet retains all its original charm.

This beautiful home is nestled on a large lot, adjoining a beautiful beach reserve, which is an ideal place for children to play safely. The golden sandy beach has small waves making it perfect for family outings. Ideal for snorkeling, swimming, fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding, long walks or simply to watch the sun set with a glass of wine.

The private pool is located off the living and dining areas on the ocean facing lanai. There is a gas BBQ and outdoor shower just off the kitchen entrance, ideal for rinsing off after a day at the beach. A 2nd covered lanai overlooks the lush garden and is the perfect place to relax and read a book.

The home features 3 spacious bedrooms each with a private en suite bath. There is also a semi private sleeping loft.

Bedroom 1/Oceanview Bedroom: California King Bed w/ full attached bathroom.

Bedroom 2/Garden view Bedroom: Four Twin Beds w/ full attached bathroom.

Bedroom 3 (Loft): Two double beds are in a loft bedroom off Bedroom 2. They share the bathroom with bedroom 2.

Bedroom 4/Main floor Bedroom: Two Queen Beds with full attached bathroom.

*Please note that accommodating 14 people is under the assumption that the party is a mix of adults and children based on size of beds in the loft and the necessity to share some sleeping spaces*

Located in popular Kihei Town, you are within walking distance of parks, restaurants and shopping as well as tennis and basketball courts.
Important to note: The County of Maui has begun to aggressively shut down illegal vacation rentals. Without fitting the criteria of County of Maui Ordinance No 4167 Bill No 75 (2014) or having a short term rental license, a property cannot be legally rented.
The criteria of the Ordinance applies to our house. It is located on property zoned A-1 Apartment District and was built in 1946. When a property is zoned A-1, has received building permits and was built prior to 1989, there is no restriction on the length of occupancies that can be accepted. Vacation and short-term transient rentals are entirely legal. In the case of our property, it was built in 1946 for Joseph Tam Sing and family. The original building permit and tax records dating back to the 1940's can be readily located via County of Maui Online Services site under "Certified History Field and Parcel Books to 1987".

While we strive to keep all photos up to date, there may be new and updated pieces of furniture or décor that are different than in the original pictures. The functionality, available seating and sleeping space will remain the same or may improve.Other things to notePlease note: Upon confirming your reservation, we will request your personal email address. A company specific rental agreement will be emailed to the provided address. Once we have received your completed rental agreement, detailed arrival instructions will be emailed to you one week prior to your stay.Registration number390090030000, TA-072-185-6512-01
