Enjoy the lush tropical setting of this secluded two-acre family property (aka, o’hana). Your accommodation includes the entire first level of our main house, which functions as a self-contained two-bedroom, one-bathroom private apartment. The bedrooms have queen beds and a small futon. You will have approximately 900 square feet of private space with private entry, carport, and a private lanai overlooking gardens, tropical flowers, trees and a lush green gulch filled with songbirds. The grounds are a combination of wild jungle and thoughtful landscape design, where you can breathe in some of the cleanest air on earth. Watch the gulch come alive by the work of our playful & friendly local menehune, who make sure the banana plants are tickled by tropical winds, and that the foliage sparkles when a light morning shower combines with sun… Walk the grounds freely... or, simply relax on the lanai and enjoy the peaceful & inspiring view after a busy day of sightseeing or beach napping!
Luxury in the jungle… Your artistically designed apartment has amenities galore, including... WiFi wireless internet (or the ability to completely disconnect), blow dryer (or the freedom to go au naturel), boogie boards (to go wild), beach towels (to sun-soak & swim), snorkeling gear (to underwater explore) and beach chairs & books to read... We want you to be ready for your vacay play!! In the apartment’s fully-equipped kitchen you can also prepare picnics and meals. (No dishwasher, but great view over sink for meditation via dish scrubbing. Please don’t throw dirty dishes into the gulch. The menehune will not be happy.)
Please note, here at vacation home rentals in Maui Hi we have two cats that live on the property, as well as a very friendly neighbor dog who visits us frequently, and a family member who is an artist. However, they do not have access to the rental interior, so you may only occasionally see them outside.
We are only 25 minutes from the airport and from Kahului, where you will find major stores and shopping centers. Booking a rental car is advisable as there is no public transit service close to our property.
For on-site, en-suite enjoyment and relaxation there is a highly credentialed (and simply excellent!) massage therapist who lives on the property and is available for booking. Private yoga or Pilates sessions can also be available… as well as Laundry service. In other words, cleanse both your Soul and Skivvies!! (Inquire about rates.)
