We are a no-smoking facility. Absolutely no smoking, no candle burning inside or outside the unit nor on the property.

The Maui by the Sea cottage is located behind our house, privately nestled among a lush tropical vegetation of fruit trees, heliconias and bamboos: far enough from the main house that we all have our privacy and close enough that we are always available for your needs (Directions, info or talk stories).

You can walk down the road (just past 5 houses) to a sweet little white sand beach. From there you can swim, kayak, snorkel, or surf, or just watch the windsurfers going for their daily “fishing trip”, or the local fishermen throwing nets. You can also stay home, come down and enjoy the spectacular view on the ocean side of the property.

Disclosures

  • There is a secure electronic Rental Agreement to read, sign and return back at time of booking.
  • The Maui by the Sea Cottage sits off the Hana Highway (which operates as a local two-lane island road). At times, excessive road noise may be audible. To maximize guest comfort, the cottage features high-quality insulation and central air conditioning. 
  • From the guest cottage you look over the roof of the owner’s house to the ocean. Our guests are very welcome to walk anywhere on the property and use the lawn chairs by the ocean. There is no beach in front of the property, it is a rocky shoreline, yet it is possible to access to the water for snorkeling and surfing from Tavares Beach (Kaulahao Beach) which is a 2mn walk from the cottage.
  • Despite our strict quarterly professional pest control treatments with Terminix and regular, diligent preventative maintenance, the outdoor and indoor environments may occasionally experience tropical creatures. These include, but are not limited to: ants, gecko lizards, flies, bees, beetles, roaches, toads, centipedes, millipedes, small scorpions, rodents, and spiders. The presence of occasional tropical insects or wildlife is a natural part of the island ecosystem.
