Relaxing home away from home- honeymoon friendly
The view of the ocean and coastal pasture makes guests exclaim "wow" as they enter the dutch doors of this cozy cottage.
This is a place to relax. You can watch the whales play and hear them sing at night. The cows lazily graze through the pasture below with the Big Island of Hawaii off in the distance. Sunrises and sunsets offer stunning colors across the sky. You can also appreciate the views from the comfort of your bed. We have stocked the cottage with all of the amenities you will need to make you feel right at home.
For the more adventurous, there are hikes, beaches, and waterfalls nearby. Haleakala National Park (7 Sacred Pools) is located 4 miles south of the cottage and Hamoa Beach is 3.5 miles north. A small freshwater pond is only 1/4 mile down the road.

Lovely spot
I had a very enjoyable stay at the cottage with great views and a wonderful lanai to enjoy them. Nature did not disappoint with short rain showers and rainbows. The location is great, between Hana and Kipahulu. Loved the cows in the pasture nearby.

Ahhhhh…..serenity
The cottage is truly relaxing. As soon as you walk in you feel a beautiful breeze off the ocean and can see and hear the surf below.The porch is such an easy place to relax: stare out at the ocean, watch the numerous butterflies and birds that live in the meadow or have a drink with a great book.The cottage is very well looked after and is equipped with everything you might need. We loved the location as it was between the town of Hana and the national park.Michelle, the host, was terrific with providing all the information we needed for an enjoyable stay.While visiting, we loved swimming at Hamoa Beach, hiking the Pipiwai Trail and gulch trail, the Hana Highway with its spectacular views and the people/shops of Hana.The cottage is the perfect place to capture the best that Maui has to offer.

Amazing Retreat
We were on Maui for 4 days and chose to spend all our time in Hāna at this beautiful and peaceful cottage. We were so glad we did!! There are many amazing sites close by but this charming cottage is a destination in itself. The extensive view of the ocean is amazing and the grazing cows add to the serene scene. We spent many hours on the porch, soaking in the beauty and tranquility. It was very hard to leave.
Such a beautiful property and location! Having breakfast or dinner on the balcony staring at the ocean with no one around you was pure serenity.

Great space to getaway & enjoy nature
This was our first time in Hana, we were there for our anniversary. My dad has stayed at this VRBO & loves it. We throughly enjoyed the road to Hana & Hana town - the food trucks were great and we enjoyed hiking & beaches that the area had to offer. Unfortunately it did rain a lot on our trip & we did not get those stunning sunrise or sunset views but overall the cabin was cozy & was as described. We did mention it was our honeymoon, there was nothing special done which is totally okay but one reason I don’t feel the stay was “exceptional”. I also wished there was some basic things like body soap & seasonings as we were staying in respects before and after our visit to Hana and didn’t think to have those things. There is no AC here so if you are someone who likes to sleep in the cold it may be a bit warm! We also lost electricity due to the weather for about 6 hours. The hosts were good to work with & reimbursed us half a days cost due to the inconvenience. There is not much service here so you definitely need wifi! Overall we really enjoyed the stay and it was well kept, clean, and was what we expected!

Super cute cottage on the east side of Maui
We wanted to be close to Hana to see some different things on this side of the island. Great place to do so, the driveway was a little hard on our mustang bottoming out with a blind curve on the hill, but overall that was fine. You are close to the road and can easily hear cars, but the traffic slowed down late afternoon. There are some little ants and geckos inside the cabin due to the design, but we didn’t mind that just an fyi. The cleaning lady wasn’t ready for our check in at 3 which was a little awkward; We waited around and got in about a half hour later, she was nice and left to get extra towels because she forgot them but lives close. Everything was cleaned thoroughly besides some ants in the utensil drawer. Wash your dishes right away or the ants come all over the counter. The cows were really fun to watch from the deck, and views were beautiful. We enjoyed this relaxing stay very much but feel the price point is a bit high for the ants. I do recommend this stay, it’s different and unique!

Romantic getaway
The setting for this quiet cabin is the view. An expansive view of the ocean and the ranch is seen thru floor to ceiling windows. Interesting original Art on the walls, a big comfy bed, great reading material, and a quiet neighborhood. We dine on the large lanai in the evening, and ate breakfast there in the morning. We left feeling renewed and connected. The location is convenient to the Hana Highway and many great destinations along the way. I highly recommend this cottage in heaven.

A slice of paradise
If you want a slice of paradise with ocean views, this is the place. We knew that Hana was removed from everything, which we saw as a positive. We enjoyed the ocean views, cows, uncrowded beaches, and local food. We were a little startled when the owner/ranch hand (I am not sure which) was suddenly outside our front door filling the trough for the cows, but once we got used to his daily presence, it was not an issue. Overall a fantastic place.

Most charming getaway!
This was our second stay here and we absolutely love it! If you are looking for a spot to relax and recharge, this is it. Spent hours on the lanai just watching the cows. The house itself has everything you need. We bought groceries and spent most of our three days there, eating out only once. We would love to return again and again.

Peaceful
When I booked it, I was hoping it would be relaxing, quiet and peaceful. After a day hiking and the Taro Festival I arrived at my “happy place”. It was clean, had plenty of amenities. There was wifi and cable TV and a music player. I just sat on the gorgeous lanai, had a drink and relaxed with a book while watching the ocean. The breeze was lovely and then I saw some short fin pilot whales playing out in the ocean. Thankfully, I had my binoculars to watch closely. I wish I could have stayed longer. Maybe next time, it really was an amazing location and comfortable. Thank you. Very nicely appointed.

A Wonderful Week in Hana
The unobstructed panoramic view of the ocean from the deck was enjoyed during breakfast, lunch and dinner and also just lounging or observing the cows grazing close by. The kitchen was highly functional as was the smaller bathroom with a larger waterfall shower. Parking right outside the front door allowed convenient loading and unloading for many beach trips and visits to the National Park just a few miles away.

Quiet slice of Paradise
Magical views of the ocean. Perfect way to break up the road to Road to Hana. Very close to the Wai'anapanapa State Park (must make reservations), Hana Lava Tubes, Hamoa Beach and the Pipiwai Trail, so save these stops to visit from this home base. The food trucks are all great ! My Tita's is a must stop for coffee. Stop at Hana Farms for a delicious wood fired pizza or cook in the well equipped kitchen and relax. The only issue we encountered was the beach chairs were not usuable, the owner was not aware of this and was going to replace. 5 star communication and location ! Very happy we stayed here.
