202 Waiehu Beach

Lovely! We hope to return.

- Stacey , Posted: 3/9/2025

We had a great stay! Communication with the host was great (probably the best I’ve had since joining Airbnb). The location was beautiful and quiet which was nice.

- Sydney , Posted: 3/5/2025

Great location and nice house

- Kirk , Posted: 2/23/2025

The home and property were very nice and just as described. It was a very quick inter island trip for us so we didn't get to explore, but it was a perfect place to relax for the evening and watch the sunrise in the morning. There was some difficulty with the internet but the host was very responsive and we got it sorted out. The views are amazing and listening to the waves throughout the night was fantastic. Will definitely be looking for this property to be available again on future trips!

- Janet , Posted: 2/22/2025

right on pebble beach and sleep with ocean waves. House comes with two individual units, downstairs and upstairs.

- Fernando Wei , Posted: 2/21/2025

We had a wonderful time in Maui. Beautiful home and we were able to see whales right from the backyard! ?

- Joanne , Posted: 2/16/2025

Great place! Very helpful host! House exactly as described. We were happy to stay there. How was online and responded quickly for the whole time we stayed there. Lovely place!

- Kateryna , Posted: 2/11/2025

We got stranded in Maui after storms in Oahu, and this airbnb was an amazing place to stay for the evening! We loved waking up next to the crashing waves, it really turned around our terrible travel day!

- Maggie , Posted: 2/1/2025

Great house for our family trip, lots of space, beach right in front a bit hard to access due to the rocky shoreline but park area next door was easier.

- Kirk , Posted: 1/26/2025

Very helpful in accommodating us, especially because it was so last minute. Very quick to respond to questions. Beautiful house, clean and very comfortable.

- Sandra , Posted: 12/31/2024

Great stay! Overlooking the ocean and in a quiet neighborhood. Great for two families with an upper and lower unit. The house was clean and well taken care of… would definitely come back.

- Monica , Posted: 12/30/2024

We had a great stay here! Host was very responsive and helpful when we were having some grill issues. The extra beach equipment was so helpful and definitely helped us save some extra cash. Everything was in pristine condition as well. Highly recommend!

- Dahnie , Posted: 12/24/2024

Such a convenient home for where my team and I work. Much better than driving all the way to Kihei.

- Cassandra , Posted: 12/10/2024

Beautiful property and location.

- Karla , Posted: 12/5/2024

House site borders the shoreline. Excellent surfing right out the door. My adult sons had a great time in the water there as there were not many surfers as So CAL. Actual house was set up well for maximum privacy. It is in excellent shape. Good kitchen with proper equipment. Variety of knives.
Washing machine and dryer are large and in good shape.
Bed mattresses were very comfortable. area
Bathroom were well designed Master shower was spacious. The HVAC worked really well.
The shoreline was rock but had a couple places with sand for kids to play in.
Would I rent the place again. YES.
Only negative is the neighborhood not great for walking around other houses not as nice as the rental. Felt safe and people friendly.

- John , Posted: 12/2/2024

Had a wonderful time in this awesome beach house. Waking up to the waves crashing on the rocks was amazing. Sunrise, coral everywhere, surfers, and access to amazing food everywhere. - Would come back in a heartbeat. Nice amenities. What a spot??

- Dan , Posted: 11/22/2024

Great property …location is awesome right next to the beach…kids loved it !

- Bhavtosh , Posted: 11/7/2024

It was a great place for us to start our trip on Maui!

- Kurt , Posted: 11/3/2024

Excellent location for surfing and outstanding service from VacaMaui. This property is perfect for two families, as each floor offers a level of separation and privacy. The house features two kitchens and two living rooms, which is very convenient. Definitely a five-star experience.
One consideration is that surfers and fishermen often walk through the backyard and along the side of the house. As a recommendation, it would be beneficial for VacaMaui to install 'No Trespassing' signs with the relevant violation code throughout the property, as well as security cameras, to deter strangers who may feel entitled to cross onto private property.
Thank you so much!

- Niko , Posted: 10/30/2024

The property is absolutely beautiful. You can watch the turtles and stingrays playing in the waves and go to sleep listening to the ocean. The owner is extremely attentive and very responsive. We would definitely stay here again!

- Cherisse , Posted: 10/12/2024

Easy, spacious property
Very clean / safe property with a beautiful view of the sunrise each morning. The queen bed in the bottom unit was a little too hard to be comfortable, but the master room was better! Overall 5 stars and very happy with our choice

- Sara T. , Posted: 9/30/2024

We loved our stay at this home.
Pros:
- Right on the water
- Squeaky clean home
- High standard amenities with no restrictions on usage
Cons:
- Folks used to resort accommodations may find this less appealing. The plot on one side has a run down home and the other side is a weed patch (cannot blame the owners though for this)
- Outdoor furniture need upgrades

202 Lower Waiehu Beach Rd. is a charming, comfortable home. The interior is clean and well maintained. All beds are spacious, with clean linens, plenty of towels, dishes, utensils, etc. We mostly used it as a launching pad, as there is so much to see on Maui. We were pleased to relax at the end of a day's outing on the back side of the property where the ocean waves rhythmically crash against the shore.

- Paul , Posted: 9/16/2023

- Emma , Posted: 5/2/2023

this house was super spacious. there was more then enough room for my group. the up-stairs down-stairs set up was perfect for putting the louder teenagers on the bottom. the sun rise was epic watching it rise over Haleakala. the location was great, far enough where you don't hear traffic but everything was only a 5-10 min drive. there is a big yard to play games and have a BBQ.
the property manager was super helpful and quick to respond. over all a 5 stars.
the only down side was when it rained the tile balcony was a little slippery. The next time I travel with a group I will definitely be look up this property again.

My girlfriends and I had never been to Maui and it was an amazing experience. Besides the obvious of our vacation destination, the host always responded very quickly and was over the top accommodating. We requested an early check in and late check out and after the host confirmed availability we were approved for both. So very grateful and very much recommend the place. It’s basically two entire houses for the price of one. The beach equipment was a I’ve bonus! Umbrellas, chairs, boogie boards, and an ice chest. All we needed was ice and sunshine to have an amazing time. Thank you!

Such a beautiful location on the beach! It was peaceful and fun to sit outside in the shade during the morning hours eating breakfast and watching the surfers. We even walked down to the beach (which had river rocks, not sand) and let the water wash over our feet and legs. You really do get a spectacular view. The neighbors are quiet and respectful. Would consider staying here again, if visiting Maui.

This place is perfect for your family or group trips. Beautiful view having the ocean waves crashing right out the back door. Another great thing was having access to the boogie boards and chairs this place provided for our trip without having to rent either. Location was great and only about 10-15 minutes from the airport with a few grocery stores along the way to the house. Baseball field and golf course also within walking distance.

The location is excellent if you want to avoid tourist hot spots. Beautiful beaches nearby, and a fantastic wildlife preserve not far away. Hosts were very responsive and friendly! The house itself is a little rundown, but all the most important stuff is there: beach access, deck with a view, functional kitchen, parking. Downstairs smells musty but upstairs is pretty nice. If you have a bunch of folks to house, the price definitely beats hotels. If you're planning a vacation where the point is to be outside most of the day, this place will suit you just fine!

Local surfing in the backyard. And miles of secluded local beaches beginning at our property line. Also centrally located near the big box stores and airport. Centrally located to North Shore, Lahaina, Road to Hana etc. Great for groups, with two kitchens two living areas, and four bedrooms, big green grassy yard that ends at the water.

We spent a lovely few days in Maui and stayed at this location. You are about 40 minutes away from the resort area which for us was fine because we spent one day doing Road to Hana and another day we did the Haleakala submit. We kept making our way back to Paia for the food and guava ice cream so for us this was the perfect location. There is no beach directly behind the house to walk on so keep that in mind if that is what you’re looking for. Overall, the place is clean and that for me is the most important thing when choosing a place to stay. Would definitely stay here again.

I spent 10 days/nights here with my two adult children and my parents. We enjoyed this place so much that we already miss it! One of the most relaxing vacations we ever had. In the early morning, we had our coffee outside watching the waves crash into the shore. It’s always windy, but the air smells amazing. Only a few minutes of walk along the stony beach or the nearby road, you’ll get a beautiful, secluded sandy beach. There are some sharp stones in the water, so you might want to wear something on your feet just in case. VacaMaui provides large umbrellas and beach chairs, and we used those on that beach as well as a couple of the snorkeling equipment. It was perfect! Everything else you need is close by. A short drive to the supermarkets or Costco, the central location is also great if you want to explore all of Maui - from Lahaina to Hana. Now I’m back in LA, sad every morning that I’m not having the beach house luxury anymore. Fair warning: it’s quite depressing. One really gets used to the beauty and it’ll leave a hole in your heart.

My family and I spent a week at this house and thoroughly enjoyed it! We especially enjoyed the beach/ocean immediately behind the home.

December 2021 Family Get a
Josh, the property owner did a good job describing this property. Reading the other reviews were helpful as well. As the July 2018 review states: Advise everyone to have appropriate expectations since this home IS at the edge of the ocean and becomes weathered with salt and wind. We did enjoy listening to the waves, sifting through the driftwood on the beach and watching the beautiful sunrises. The surfers were right next door, evidentially it’s a favorite spot for local surfers, which were fun to watch. Some cons: the dishwasher does not do a good job washing the dishes. Buy a non-stick pan, the lockboxes were hard to open and shut. Pros: right on the beach, 15 minutes from Costco, Safeway and Whole Foods, in a residential area, sandy beach and surfers right next door, comfy beds and soft sheets. We enjoyed our time there and it worked well for our group of six. Josh did a great job with communication, including sending us information way in advance on arrival and departure info, house manual, places to eat, hikes, beaches, transportation, grocery stores and a map of the island.

- Joyce , Posted: 10/30/2021

Quiet neighborhood. Plenty of space for 6 of us. Great view. Not fancy but comfortable and relaxing

- Carrie , Posted: 10/3/2021

The location is great! Exactly where you want to be. Make sure that you walk down a little ways to get to the beach area.

- Keven , Posted: 9/13/2021

Thank you

- Bonnie , Posted: 8/27/2021

Beautiful view and a BIG yard! House is nice, love the 2 levels.

- Jason , Posted: 8/21/2021

Had a great stay -great value right on the beach at Maui lots of room and a very good host !

- Adil , Posted: 8/3/2021

Pros: onsite parking, location to airport, groceries, supplies, and major shoreline and beach access by car. House if rent whole property is spacious and our 2 families had privacy but able to have wonderful meals on the lanai with a fantastic view of the shoreline and public area next door of local fisherman and surfers in the wee mornings. Dinners on the outside huge grill fantastic in the evenings...though might need some lanterns later as flood lights are motion sensing.. The abandoned buildings next door did not pose an issue for us visually and did not see any signs of transients in this residential area. The sound of the surf is sleep inducing as are the breezes at night on the top floor and views from top and master bedrooms gorgeous in the morning to wake up to. Small beach a short distance away but for the spectacular views and turtles I recommend Baldwin State Park...not as crowded as Kaanapali or Kapalua and not as touristy. Baldwin is only a few minutes away by car and short ride to Paia (must see town) on way to Hana. Nice supplies for beach provided as well as outdoor furniture and huge grill. Kick ass laundry and drier. Bring your own dishwasher detergent (we left a bottle on the sink).
Cons: House cleanliness okay for an older home on a beach, but in bathrooms not what expected from a superhost (mold caking on old tubs was an issue in this beach house in the baths and showers and no bleach around to clean it up ourselves...sent photos to host and hopefully will clean it up for you) and had a repairman coming in on July 4th at 9 am doing repairs to stairs, door, air conditioner on first floor master...though we were out luckily for the day, he was there in late afternoon when we got back and air-condition repaired. Kitchen amenities are basic and suggested and hope they take our suggestions to get a coffee maker for upstairs and tea kettle and repair icemaker upstairs.
Overall: 4 stars
All in all if you are not looking for a pristine resort like experience but a quiet getaway place for your family to chill and explore, this is a great value and if a little TLC can be done to this little gem, we would stay again! Would have given 5 stars but this is a superhost listing so manage your expectations ahead of time and you will have a great time!

The house is a residential neighborhood right by the ocean. There is nothing to do around the house, but it is in a convenient location for driving tours to all interest points around the island and close to the airport. There is no beach by the house - the sea is rough and water is not easily to access. Keep in mind all beaches are public in Maui, so there might be people fishing right in your back yard.
The house needs maintenance and is not very comfortable for a leisurely vacation (upstairs and downstairs are completely separate, backyard faces abandoned buildings to one side and public park to the other) but is perfectly fine if your large family will be out of the house for an entire day and you just need a place to sleep.
It was nice to have some beach gear at the house (sand toys, chairs, body boards, snorkel gear etc ), but make sure the snorting gear is complete and try out the masks before heading out to the beach as not all is complete/functional.
The kitchen is sufficiently equipped with all the necessities and the internet is fast. The hosts provides a tiny tube of body wash per bathroom so be ready to either bring your own toiletries or buy some right after you arrive. Don’t get surprised, like we did.
All and all, we liked our stay and the house worked well for our group. The management company is very responsive if there are any issues and the check in is easy, regardless of when you arrive.
Hearing the ocean at night was amazing!

- Paulina , Posted: 7/4/2021

Host was very nice and responsive. The place was very big, but definitely in need of some updates/repairs. The location was not the nicest, but it was very convenient for road to Hana.

- Jenny , Posted: 6/14/2021

We didn’t spend much time at the house, but it worked for what we needed! The number of bedrooms and space was perfect for our group, and definitely a great find since many condos available on the island are smaller. The house is a little older than the pictures make it look, but that’s not a dealbreaker. The provided beach toys, towels, chairs and umbrellas were extremely useful. The neighborhood was quiet. We had a good time overall!

- Britt , Posted: 6/4/2021

Great place with amazing views of the ocean. Location is central to Hawaii, that makes it easy to get to all the attractions. Our family loved the stay, and all the extra amenities like beach chairs, umbrellas, cooking ingredients, and more. Great value for the price, would def be staying here again! Mahalo.

- Faizan , Posted: 6/1/2021

The place was great. Nice neighborhood and close to everything. Mahalo for hosting

- Adam , Posted: 5/9/2021

Seriously wonderful. We didn’t realize that the upstairs and downstairs are separate and have functional dining and living spaces (full kitchen upstairs, fridge/sink/food prep area downstairs). This ended up being amazing for our group traveling with small children. Great location on the north side of the island. We spent a lot of our time in Paia and Ho’okipa. House is conveniently 10-15 mins from Ioa trailhead, easily accessible to Road to Hana, and ~1.5 hours from Haleakal?. We ended up eating most of our meals in the morning and evening at the house because of the view. Unreal. We utilized the snorkel gear and Josh made sure we had everything we needed for travel with a 7 month old. The neighborhood was friendly and it had a local feel. Highly recommend.

- Bethany , Posted: 4/30/2021

We really enjoyed our stay! The location was great and waking up right next to the ocean was amazing. House was spacious and was perfect for our group. Host was very tentative whenever needed and always responded very promptly! Would definitely recommend to others traveling in larger groups.

- Amy , Posted: 4/21/2021

The location was amazing, great views.

- Viola , Posted: 4/4/2021

- William , Posted: 3/17/2021

AMAZING LOCATION AND FANTASTIC HOST!

- Kevin , Posted: 3/11/2021

This place was so beautiful and had all of the amenities one could need. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone staying in Maui.

- Gabriella , Posted: 3/2/2021

Josh was a great host. All of the recommendations were spot on and his hands on accommodation was the best I’ve had while staying at any Airbnb!

- Jack , Posted: 2/26/2021

This was a perfect spot for our group. Decent surf spot right in the back yard.

- Adam , Posted: 2/15/2021

Great hospitality! Quick to respond

- Stephanie , Posted: 1/27/2021

Great Spot

- Jason , Posted: 1/24/2021

Our group stayed in Maui for a week and we could not have asked for a better place! The place not only has a nice backyard to hang out in but also a beach close by that you can walk to and we saw surfers every day go out in the waves. The airbnb also provided us with things like snorkeling equipment, boogieboards, beach towels, beach chairs, and beach umbrellas! The host was also very quick to respond to any problems or questions we had about things like the wifi, the trash, and checkin/out process!

- Jason , Posted: 1/21/2021

the house and yard was super spacious and we loved being right on the water. open the windows at night and you can fall asleep to the sound of the waves.

- Kristine , Posted: 12/22/2020

The perfect ending to my trip in Maui. The backyard was beautiful, and the home was well stocked and kept. I highly recommend staying here. An unforgettable experience, and would stay here again most definitely.

- Zahra , Posted: 12/22/2020

Super cool spot in Waiehu. Huge property, complete privacy and great space. The host was very responsive and even offered to stop by to troubleshoot if we couldn’t get the grill fired up. We recommend this to anyone looking to stay and have a true local experience.

- Sara , Posted: 11/30/2020

I loved my stay. I could have just spent my entire time at the house but definitely wanted to take advantage to explore Maui while there. The house is in such a great location on the island, I highly recommend it.

- Jeffrey , Posted: 11/8/2020

Awesome location for big groups of people! The ocean access is unbeatable here. We had a group of seven and we fit comfortably in the house. The only think I wish is better is the kitchen ware. Dullest knife I’ve used ever and no scissors anywhere in the house.

- Shiyu , Posted: 10/29/2020

This was a great place to stay for a few weeks. Lots and lots of space and nice yard and access to the beach. If you need a house to fit lots of people to enjoy a vacation on Maui this is a great place to stay

- Isabella , Posted: 10/3/2020

It’s a great spot to rent out. Perfect location and amenities for people who are traveling. For locals looking to spend time at a beach house it’s perfect. Felt like camping all while staying at a hotel.

- Radyn , Posted: 9/13/2020

Staycation was great at our favorite surf spot! Boys got to fish right off the lawn and AC was nice and cool on these hot days. Not a huge deal but the grill was out of propane and had not been cleaned from previous users. Overall it is a beautiful view and lawn outdoor area for cruising and fishing and spending time with family. We liked how it is a separate upstairs and downstairs. Will hopefully staycation here again soon!

- Anela , Posted: 8/31/2020

Anela, glad you had a great time! My apologies about the grill. I keep extra propane on sight, so next time reach out right away and I'll tell you how to access it. Mahalo

- Alyssa , Posted: 8/8/2020

The house had everything we needed and the management company was great. The beach park next door was nice and quiet. It is the windy side and is rocky. The calmer water around Kihei was better for children to play in but I find the view of the ocean better on the this side (north side). Water is a beautiful blue. The beach park was a great place to take family pictures.

- Elizabeth , Posted: 3/25/2020

Great value. Lots of space. Would stay again.

- Audrey , Posted: 3/17/2020

This house is excellent to live for the company of 6-8. We had a great time here. Excellent ocean view and a good place to start for every island direction. House has two floors, all modern technics and tableware. The grass in front of the house is ideal for morning exercises. We liked our 6 day vacation here!

- Petr , Posted: 3/12/2020

We enjoyed our stay at this home in Maui. The place was as expected. The view was great but the pictures are a little misleading as there was not a table to eat at outside and the ocean was a few feet away from the house. The hosts were accommodating with an early check in since the unit was cleaned and ready. The unit was a bit out dated but very comfortable. They had a ton of beach stuff that was great for the family. We overall enjoyed our stay.

- Allison , Posted: 3/6/2020

This house was great for what we needed. We had an event nearby and we had several people with us so the space was good. Being right on the ocean was amazing even though there is not a beach, just rocks. The house was okay but the pictures were a little misleading. We expected to be in a local neighborhood but we did not expect there to be houses (shacks) all rundown and boarded up next door. It was a little shocking to be honest.
The sitting areas were not very comfy and we couldn’t get the tv upstairs to work. But other than that, we enjoyed our stay.
We didn’t surf but it seamed like a great place to surf. There were lots of surfers directly out from the house.
One other thing to note is that we had several local surfers in the yard using the hose attached to the house. Not a big deal for us but this could be a problem for others.

- Damon , Posted: 2/10/2020

Great place when needing an entire house to rent and have your own space.

- Liz , Posted: 12/26/2019

We had a great time at Josh’s place. He was quick to communicate with me and shared valuable information about what to do/see around the area. Air conditioning was very nice to have!!
Like others have mentioned, we had issues with ants and a cockroach.
Overall, a good experience!

- Kristen , Posted: 11/1/2019

Josh is a great host. Very accommodating and quick to respond. His place is great for a large group and offers a lot of amenities to allow for a comfortable trip. His washer and dryer came in very handy and there were lots of towels/beach towels available. The view of the ocean from the house is great during the daytime. I thought the location was actually pretty convenient. It's close to the airport and a lot of great restaurants with good parking in central Maui. It takes about an hour to get to other areas of Maui but I feel that is better than staying further west and taking even longer to get to areas of interest on the east side. The neighborhood is very dark at night time as the area is not very well lit but I think this is to be expected at a beach house away from city lights. Do expect bugs and the . You can't access the beach right in front of you but it was still nice. Josh provides a travel size shampoo, body wash, and bar of soap per bathroom but, if you anticipate this will not last you during your trip, I suggest bringing some. Overall it was a nice stay.

- Lily , Posted: 5/3/2019

Josh was very helpful and very quick on responding back to our needs.

- Gloria , Posted: 4/25/2019

Good for large groups/multi family, beautiful weather and scenery
Close to Kahului, restaurants and shops

- Melanie , Posted: 3/2/2019

Absolute awesome place, the location is right on the ocean, you can’t beat the constant wave crashing and breeze through the home. The upstairs master bed was very comfortable. Would highly recommend for those wanting more privacy and less tourist traffic. Minutes from airport, Ioa Needle, and Paia. Good jump start to Haleakal? and Road to Hana. Beach equip through house for use. Would stay again!

- Nicholas , Posted: 3/1/2019

House was clean, there are bath towels and beach towels in every room. Plus boogie boards and snorkel gear. The fenced in yard is very large and great for frisbee or football if the wind dies down enough. The houses next door are derelict, with no one living in them. Not a big deal really, just visually unappealing. There is a fence between the properties. Also there is a small ant issue in the upper space. Just meant we needed to clean spills up and not leave out any chopped fruit too long. Grocery is pretty close and so is some restaurants/night life. Also if you want sandy beaches makes sure to walk down the beach, past the outcrop of rock (left if you are looking at the ocean). It’s not far!

- Mark , Posted: 1/25/2019

The pluses on this home are many. This is a great location right on the water. Sitting on a lounge chair on the grass with a cup of coffee, watching the local surfers and enjoying the morning was perfect. We are a large family and the house provided ample room for us all along with beach chairs, towels and boogie boards for trips out to the beach. The house is also nicely private with a bank of greenery on one side and a derelict property on the other which was not much to look at, but it meant there were no neighbors which, again, made it nicely private. The house is a bit tired, especially the lower half, and there was a significant ant problem which was really an issue. If the bugs are taken care of it will make the place much more liveable. The host was extremely approachable and helpful with our issues, which I appreciated very much.

- Liz , Posted: 12/30/2018

If you’re looking for a space with all the comforts of home right off the beach with everything needed to enjoy the island this is the place for you and your love ones we had a blast Jose was in contact at a moments notice and was very accommodating we happen to be there as the start of hurricane lane category 5...yikes Jose explained everything and even stated if the storm looks like it will get to rough we can go to his personal resident.....thankful that wasn’t needed but boy did that feel good!!! Thank you Jose ?Aloha

- Keylon , Posted: 8/24/2018

Expect a beautiful oceanfront view and a delightful and charming accommodation full of personality. We had a few hiccups during our stay, namely a toilet paper shortage and a leaking pipe, but these were resolved very quickly.

- Matthew , Posted: 8/17/2018

Get the “local” feel
Let me start by saying that we really enjoyed our time at this home. Our group consisted of 2 families (4 adults, 2 teenagers & 2 kids in their 20’s). The home was plenty spacious for us all, and was well stocked with towels, snorkel gear, beach chairs, etc. We chose to have the parents stay in the upstairs unit, and kids downstairs. Access to the nearest beach is just about 50 yards down the street, and we spent countless hours on the back patio, enjoying the sound of the waves crashing against the rocks at the edge of the property. The home is conveniently located, but not in the typical “tourist” areas. You’ll find yourself primarily amongst locals, not resorts and hotels. In fact, I’m not sure I saw a building more than two stories tall. WalMart, Target, and several grocery stores are near by, convenient to provision your stay. Josh, the owner, was extremely accommodating. He allowed us to arrive a little ahead of our scheduled “check-in” time, and checked in with us periodically throughout our stay. It’s also very apparent that he’s continuing to maintain and improve the property. Even during our stay, he was having a very nice privacy fence installed at the edge of the property; helping to buffer from an unattractive property next door. Lastly, I’d advise everyone to have appropriate expectations. This is a home that IS at the edge of the ocean. If you understand how salt and wind impacts a home, then you’ll understand that there will always be some amount of “weathering”, even with constant maintenance and upkeep. If you need the Ritz Carlton, this home is not for you. If you want clean, comfortable, private, and to be immersed in the local environment, it’ll be a perfect fit. Mahalo

- Randy S. , Posted: 7/9/2018

Josh was a great host, and quick to respond. Home was as advertised...right on the water. Lots of room for our family...and two kitchens came in handy. Used all the beach gear provided. Good basecamp for visiting several locations around the island. Also very convenient to airport. Josh provided several suggestions for activities while visiting.

- Dan , Posted: 6/17/2018

Josh had excellent communication. He responsed quickly and always addressed our concerns. My group was a bit unsure about the next door neighbors - the house is abandoned and is an unfortanuate eyesore for Josh’s property. He was an excellent host and did his best with the circumstances!

- Allyson , Posted: 6/11/2018

Josh was very accommodating and always quick to respond. The place is perfect for a large family with a separate upstairs and downstairs. There are two bedrooms in each of the units, and a sofa bed (downstairs) and a couple air mattresses. The view was pleasant and the house was less than 10 minutes from Kahului airport. Very convenient location with quick access to Costco, Whole Foods, and a couple fast food places. A rental car is a must to get around the island. Very nice touches around the house.

- Pamela , Posted: 4/10/2018

We had two families of four stay at joshes place. It was a perfect location to have us our homebase. We got around the island very easily from this location. It was wonderful to sleep with the windows open and have the waves crashing on the shore. One evening we had a fire in a little fire pit and it was so relaxing. There was enough room for everybody and we felt just like at home. Everything that Josh says that place is is true. He offered all kinds of items for us to use on the beach from chairs to beach towels and beach ch we had two families of four stay at joshes place. It was a perfect location to have as our homebase.

Great place for 4 couples .
We stayed here with 4 couples and really enjoyed our time here. We loved being right near the water and watching th surfers and whales! The upper two rooms and kitchen and living area were newer and brighter with lots of windows, and the downstairs has a walkout toward the ocean. It was great for us!

- Laura M. , Posted: 1/29/2018

Nice house, centrally located but could use a few more amenities.
The house is centrally located and on the coast. Waking up to the waves every morning was just what we needed! The house is comfortable but could use some cleaning in the kitchen and bathroom areas. (Grease build up, dirty grout and some dirty dishes were found) I was in the upstairs master room and loved the bed! The sheets and mattress were soft and very comfortable! We did run short on towels and washcloths since there were only a few laundry pods that we saved to wash beach towels at the end of the trip. Upstairs kitchen was pretty well stocked but my family staying in the lower portion of the house said theirs was lacking a few things and needing to be cleaned as well. They provided snorkel sets, boogie boards and chairs in each room which was awesome and very much appreciated! Not sure if our set got overlooked but there was a lot of sand on our snorkel set that we had to scrub out prior to using. Overall we really enjoyed the house but wish some more amenities would have been provided.

- Anna C. , Posted: 12/4/2017

Great place for a large group looking stay by the water and the airport. Though the area is not fit for swimming, it is a convenient property for fishing and/or surfing. Josh and his wife were very accommodating and readily available for questions/concerns. Highly recommend!

- Jennifer , Posted: 12/2/2017

Great house on the water. Two separate living areas in case you have a large family or maybe need some alone time. In November, that side of the island was very windy and somewhat rainy. Close to airport.

- Laura , Posted: 11/25/2017

Our family of nine enjoyed our stay at the beach house. It has everything we needed. The location was close to grocery stores and gas stations.
We enjoyed sitting on the lawn chairs to enjoy the beautiful ocean view while sipping on morning coffee.
All the beach umbrellas, chairs, and snorkel gears that Josh provided were so useful! He even provided beach toys for the kids to play in the sand.
Highly recommended!

- Cathy , Posted: 9/30/2017

Spacious house with an ocean view
We recently stayed 4 nights at this property. There were seven of us and we all had plenty of space and comfort. The location is close to the airport and centrally located for easy access to most of the island. The interior had been recently renovated. Although the exterior needs additional TLC, this didn't interfere with the great time we had during our stay. The outdoor space is great and the beautiful ocean front view is wonderful, with the only complaint being the abandoned , run down properties next door. The owners were very helpful and very easy to communicate with. Overall the pluses greatly outweighed the minuses. I would consider this property again if we ever have the opportunity to return to Maui.

- John T. , Posted: 7/26/2017

I'm glad you had a good time and thank you for the kind words. I also appreciated the critiques of the property. We actually painted the entire exterior about 18 months ago. Being 20 feet from the water the outside requires constant maintenance. After your stay we spent 3 days touching up all exterior paint. We also planted $5,000 worth of palms about 18 months ago between us and the house next door. They all died off from being so close to the water. We have been testing different plants and hibiscus have done well. We are planting hibiscus between the house next door to create a hedge. Once again thank you for the critiques, it motivated me to get some things completed. Mahalo, Josh
