Property Description
Kihei's Hidden Gem (B&B permit #BBKM20210002)
offers an ideal setting for your family or group to experience a memorable Hawaiian getaway. This brand new south Maui vacation rental boasts ocean, mountain, and sunset views, a private pool, central air conditioning, and a peaceful location, with easy access to adventures on every part of the island.
Complete with plenty of comfortable seating in the living area, a dining table for 8, and bar seating at the kitchen island, the upstairs great room in Kihei's Hidden Gem provides the perfect gathering spot for quality time together. Its well-equipped kitchen features high-quality appliances, plenty of counter space, and everything you need for relaxing meals at home. A wall of sliding doors opens from the great room to the upstairs lanai and an expansive view of the ocean, where additional lounge seating and a dining table for six create opportunities for lingering over a morning cup of coffee or sunset cocktail.
The home's two large master bedrooms (one upstairs, one down) feature king beds, direct lanai access, and en suite baths, dual sinks, and large walk-in showers. On the lower level, guests will find a third bedroom with twin beds, and a fourth with two sets of bunk beds, each with an upper twin and lower double. The downstairs hall bath provides a dual sink vanity and a tub/shower combo.
Sliding glass doors lead from the downstairs master and the bunk bed room to a lovely pool area, with places to lounge in sun or shade, surrounded by tropical landscaping. A Baja shelf serves as a great place for sunbathing or playing with the kids, and the pool comes stocked with floats and noodles. After a day of fun in the sun, guests can take advantage of another heavenly aspect of island life - the private outdoor shower.
This Kihei vacation rental home enjoys a fabulous location on Maui's sunny south side, close to stunning stretches of sand like Keawakapu, Wailea Beach, and Makena (Big Beach). Wailea town's world-class dining, shopping, and golf courses are also nearby, along with activities like surfing, snorkeling, stand-up paddling, and hiking. Just a five-minute drive from grocery stores and restaurants, and a 15-minute drive from Kahului Airport, Kihei's Hidden Gem offers the ideal home base for exploring the Valley Isle, from the renowned waves of the north shore, to the Haleakala volcano, to the incredible beaches of the west side.
PLEASE NOTE: There is no fence between the pool and the downstairs rooms which open on to the pool deck! (see pix). While we have installed additional locks to protect little ones, guests should be aware of this.

This property far exceeded my expectations. I was nervous to be responsible for picking our accommodations for a large group. I feel like a total winner! We had 2 families plus a grandma. 5 adults, 4 teenagers. The bunk beds were solid enough for them and their room included a tv/sofa. The masters were large and comfortable. The kitchen is very well stocked with all kinds of cooking gear. It was nice to have some staples left by other renters so we didn’t have to buy every little thing. The living/dining/kitchen is wide open and pretty expansive. Plenty of seating for everyone. Love how many recliners there were. The pool isn’t very big but it’s private and fit our party just fine. There’s a closet full of pool toys. Nice view of the ocean from upstairs, sunsets every night. Overall location of the property was perfect. Very central to all our activities. (Whale watching, shopping, Hana road, snorkeling, beaches, Luau, airport). Host was super responsive to questions. Caretaker was friendly and available during our stay. Everyone was thrilled with this place. If we make it back to Maui, would love to stay here again.

This house and property was spectacular! The garden was immaculate and had the appearance of a high end resort. The house itself was well kept, spacious, and very functional for our family and kids. The sunsets from the upper patio were nothing short of magical. We also enjoyed the central location of the property and the ease of getting to the rest of the island from this location. The property manager, Ed, was so helpful and kind and really made our stay even better. Overall I would not hesitate to recommend this property and we hope to return again soon!

This house and Kathleen’s graciousness added up to a perfect family vacation. The place was immaculate and so well laid out - accommodating two families with children plus ‘Nana’. Nice central Kihei location but the house was the star of our stay. Can’t recommend this place highly enough.

House accommodated our group of ten very nicely. The pool was a hit with the children after our day tours. Quiet neighborhood- yet convenient location to shopping & sites.

Absolutely stunning views greeted us as we arrived at this Hawaiian VRBO paradise. The communication with the owner was flawless, ensuring our stay was seamless from start to finish. The house itself was meticulously stocked with every amenity imaginable, making it feel like a true home away from home. From kitchen gadgets to beach essentials, we lacked for nothing. An unforgettable experience that exceeded all expectations!

Our family had a wonderful stay at Kathleen’s home. Property managers Amy and Tom greeted us on arrival, and communication was excellent. The home was extremely clean, spacious, and well stocked/supplied for a vacation rental. We spotted many whales from the upper lanai (traveled in March), and enjoyed the tropical, private pool area when not traveling about the island. Would highly recommend for a family or couples traveling to Maui. Thank you Kathleen for the privilege of staying in your beautiful home!

We had a lovely stay. The house had everything you could need and more. It was great for being together as a family, but we were also able to spread out and have space. The location was perfect for all the adventures we went on during our stay. Thank you!

The home was better than expected. Very clean and organized. 3 couples in our group and we all had room to spread out and be comfortable. Great views of the ocean from the balcony. Point of contact on the island was very sweet and accommodating. Host communication and accommodation was spot on. Look forward to staying again!
