Beautiful little cottage, spectacular views, peaceful and well loved. We truly enjoyed our stay and loved exploring the area.

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.

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.

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.

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.

This place has an amazing view and has such peaceful energy that calms the soul. The birds are wonderful to listen to every morning. We loved the rain, wind , clouds and saw the brightest rainbow. Last night was the most beautiful sunset that we’ve seen here

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.

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.

The cottage is quiet and peaceful! The view is spectacular! We had coffee and breakfast on the lanai every morning as we watched the rain roll in and out. This place is just perfect for two to relax and unwind after a day of hiking and travel on the road to Hana!

This property was advertised as having a hot tub and that was one of the primary reasons I chose it.
This property DOES NOT have a hot tub and apparently never did.
I will be requesting a refund.

Overall a really good stay. Unfortunately hit some complications that had me stranded as the home owner just happened to be out of town- beware the front door is auto locking so even if you’re just stepping out to your car have the house key in hand! I had also met a centipede for the first time which was also a first for me. Clean house with all of the amenities needed as well a comfortable bed.

We absolutely loved our stay in this cottage in Hana. I cant recommend it enough. It was everything we hoped for. Clean and very comfortable for the two of us celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary. The bed was super comfortable. The kitchen provided everything we needed. We cooked on the charcoal grill one night. The porch facing the ocean was magical to have coffee in the morning and cocktails at night. Ocean on one side- breath taking mountains on the other side! Cows grazing and mooing 20 ft. from our front door. It was just amazing in every way! We stayed 3 nights so we could really spend time in Hana and explore and not feel rushed. If you're looking for a place to stay in Hana, just stop looking and book this cottage- if its available! We do recommend you rent a Jeep or similar vehicle so you can easily park at the cottage.

We loved the little cottage. Waking up to the sound of birds and watching them from the deck everyday was wonderful.
The absolute privacy of our deck was a real treat!
The appliances were in excellent condition and easy to use.
The screens kept all insects .
This is a honeymoon cottage even if you’ve been together 50 years‼️💯☮️💖😍

Everything was wonderful! The location was perfect for a relaxing and quiet getaway and the views were beautiful. The house had everything we needed from kitchen supplies to beach gear. The checkin instructions were accurate and we appreciated the detailed instructions. Hana and this house was our favorite stay during our trip to Hawaii and we were so sad to leave!

Great little place for our honeymoon! There are quite a few bugs around the place and ants can get on the counter very easily, so just be aware of that with lights at night and such. But the place is just off the road to Hana and is super close to great beaches and hikes! It's a small place but it's plenty of room for 2. But it was very peaceful, the view is amazing, and we would highly recommend this place!

Gorgeous view, perfect place for a couple, comfortable bed, has almost everything you need to have a "unplugged" vacation getaway. Bring groceries/drink with you to have what you want as choices are limited in Hana, and more expensive. No AC, but the normal winds thru this cottage keep it quite comfortable. Really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again for sure.

We could not be happier and grateful we got the chance to reload our batteries at such a beautiful place.
The cottage might not look that eye catching from the outside but once you enter, you are simply in paradise!
The cottage had all we needed to find relaxation and comfort. The cows wandering by and the breathtaking ocean view right from the bed/patio are amazing. You go to sleep with and wake up to the ocean view. No AC, and it was not needed at all! We enjoyed the fresh air and the easy things you can do in Hana. I specially the Hamoa beach. Deeply recommend for some paradisiacal me out.

This was our second time staying here and it was just as great as the first time. You will have a hard time finding a view with ocean and cow noise that is this spectacular. If you want a relaxing stay with an adventure getting there then this place is it! Thanks for letting us enjoy this wonderful place one more time.

If you are looking for serene and beautiful this is your place. Hana is the quiet, out of the way side of the island and this cottage epitomizes that. The view is stunning. Being able to see the sun rise over the ocean from bed is amazing. Cottage is not fancy, but has a lot a character and everything you need.

This property was incredible! Very good location, well equipped and clean. The kitchen had everything we needed for some light cooking (microwave, fridge, some oil/utensils and a pan) and the view was spectacular. We didn't really have much of a problem with bugs/lizards either.
Renee T.
May 2023
We loved the cottage so much! It was by far our favorite of the five places we stayed across Oahu, Hawaii and Maui during our three week vacation. We loved the remote location, the incredible view from the lanai, and the easy access to the Kipahulu District of Haleakala NP. (PRO TIP: It's a 20ish minute drive from the cottage to the Pipiwai trailhead. Arrive there at 7:30 AM to have the waterfalls, banyan tree, and bamboo forest completely to yourself. Otherwise expect a non-stop line of people.)
We only stayed three nights and wished we'd stayed longer. Maybe next time!

Amazing tranquility, breathtaking view from the lanai. We loved the birds singing at 6, the rain, full moon and just watching the clouds and light change. Definitely food for the soul! Michelle was very gracious! Thank you for another memorable trip, we’ll be back!

I was skeptical about this listing being as good as it looked and described. As it turned out I was right, it was better. It was comfortable and well equipped but the best part is the location right on the water front. It feels like your are alone in a place you only see on television. Despite the fatigue of a long day driving to Hana, I couldn’t wait to wake up to see what the sunrise would look like and it didn’t disappoint. I will definitely stay longer on our next trip to Maui.

My husband and I stayed here for the last three nights of our ten night vacation in Hawaii and it was a perfect place to relax after being very touristy for the first part of the trip. We were fortunate to have perfect weather, but even if it had rained, the lanai was protected enough to enjoy the outdoors. We loved the view of the ocean w whales and the Big Island on the other side. The cows grazing below the lanai added to the serenity and character of this cute little cottage on the ranch. The close proximity to the east side of Haleakala NP was a bonus so we could hike there early in the am to beat the crowd. We would definitely return here and recommend it to our friends. Staying in Hana was a recommendation from our neighbors who had driven the Road to Hana before us and we were grateful for the heads up- it contributed greatly to the relaxing end of our trip. Thank you for sharing your property w us!

The place is charming, old, historic, retro, great view of the ocean, wall of windows to enjoy nighttime and day break, a one of a kind place to experience Maui/Hana.
It’s lacks the basics, grill and charcoal provided, but no lighter or matches to get the grill started, no metal bbq tools, no aluminum foil. No coffee provided (everywhere we staid on the island they always provided ground coffee) refrigerator is full of odds and ends that people have left and may or may not have passed expiration date. No bar of soap for the shower, again you can find odds and ends that people have left under the bathroom sink for shampoo and conditioners.
Basic needs are not taken care of for such a wonderful location. Needs much improvement on the services and amenities that are not provided.
Extremely disappointed

We loved our stay here. We stay a few nights in Hana every time we visit Maui, and this by far was our favorite spot. We usually have a couple of our children with us, and this cottage perfect for just us two. We enjoyed the cute cottage and it had everything we needed. The view of the ocean is absolutely stunning. Sitting on the back lanai with that view, made it very hard to leave to explore Hana. We picked up food in town every night and ate at the cottage so we could enjoy the ocean and sunset! The cows roaming the hillside, the birds, butterflies, geckos, were a bonus! Since it is a little outside of Hana it was a very quiet area too. We will definitely stay here again! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

First of all, the view from the lanai is incredible. The town of Hana is quite charming. As there’s not a lot of food options we cooked dinners in and dined on the lanai. The place was very clean and the surrounding area was very quiet and peaceful. We were there during a massive thunderstorm and got quite the show. Great place! 10/10 would come back!

What can we say other than we loved and wee grateful for every single second at the cottage. I was in love the moment we walked through the door! Everything was cute, clean and perfect. Mornings were peaceful as we enjoyed coffee and breakfast on the lanai with birds and butterflies. One of our sunsets included the cows! The sliding doors offering ocean views was such a treat. Sleeping to the sound of the ocean was heaven. Such a beautiful beautiful spot. I was so sad to leave!! We can’t wait to return.❤️

What a magical property!! You can feel the love in this wonderful cabin. My husband and I were here for only two nights and wished we could have spent more time. It's a short drive from Hana and VERY private. It has a huge sliding glass doors that are screened onto the lanai. The bed sits right by this and made for quiet, cool and wonderful sleeping.The views are simply spectacular. Each day hiking, exploring and relaxing on nearby beaches, we stopped in Hana and picked up dinner from one of the many fabulous food trucks and took back to the cabin and ate on the lanai. However, if you want to cook while staying there, you will have everything you will need. Michelle is very responsive and nearby. We had no problems finding the cabin or with access. When we come to Maui, we will definitely stay here. There's still a lot to explore.

Our previous visits to Hana always felt rushed as we typically stay in Kihei when we visit Maui. We decided to book this cottage to allow ourselves some time to leisurely explore the area. OMG! Might be our absolute FAVORITE!! The cottage is PERFECT for a couple & SO COZY that you just might not leave this little nest!! (We opted to stay in for one of our days because it IS just that wonderful!). If we return, this will be on our MUST DO stays.

This property was absolutely amazing. The view and setting alone are more than enough reason to stay here. You are just outside of the town of Hana. To stay here, and get up in the morning before other tourists arrive for the day is perfection. After the best rainstorm of my life on the first night, we got up, drove up the road and enjoyed the amazing fresh waterfall, alone. Then drove in to town for a few supplies, the post office and were back relaxing on the lanai before anyone else arrived to town. The setting is so peaceful.
There are geckos which come out in the evening and are interesting to watch.
The cottage is very well stocked and comfortable. We slept with all the windows / slider open each night. It was wonderful to listen to nature outside. Trust me, there IS a reason the bed has a blanket.
Cows and their calfs did come right up to the deck for some lovely grass.
We drove back down Hana Hwy @ 5 am to see a friend before catching a flight. The drive is easy. Watch out however for cows and peacocks on the road early am.
I highly recommend this property. It was impeccably clean and oh so comfortable. I hated to leave. Would mutch rather have stayed in the cottage than moving on to Kauai.
Enjoy this, pure bliss 💎 ❤

The Koali Cottage was perfect for our first ever trip to Hawaii. The location may be a bit more challenging to get to, but worth the longer drive from the airport in exchange for where you end up! When you first walk in the front door, you can’t beat the sweeping ocean views across the entire back of the cottage. Waking up to that view (in a very comfy bed) every morning was incredible. Coming home to it after a day of adventures was also instantly soothing and wonderful. We spent lots of time on the large comfortable lanai enjoying meals and watching sunrises and sunsets. The cottage was pretty clean despite some of the expected worn-in nooks and crannies that one might expect in an old cottage (and from some recent renovations), which didn’t bother us or affect our stay. But all the bedding and sitting areas and everything we used each day was very clean and tidy. The cottage is well appointed with everything you need to enjoy time there. With windows everywhere, glorious cross breezes, passing rain showers, and multiple fans, we didn’t feel any need for AC. The cottage was kept naturally cool and very comfortable for sleeping. This special place is truly a magical spot and we found it very hard to tear ourselves away at the end of our stay. I sincerely hope we get to return and would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone visiting Maui. And the property manager Michelle was also super responsive and very helpful for any questions. Mahalo for a perfect stay on our vacation!

My husband and I rented this charming cottage for a few days to explore the Hana area and Haleakala National Park. It was the perfect place to rest and relax with a view that is stunning. We loved the cows across the street and hearing the moos and waves of the ocean while we read on the porch each morning. It was perfect! We would absolutely stay here again.

August 2022
Our three day stay in this picturesque cottage was the highlight of our 7 day honeymoon. The pictures simply don't do justice to the experience of sunrise greetings as coffee is brewing, banana bread warming, waves crashing far below; cattle lowing, ocean breezes blowing, trees creaking and rustling, rainbows shining, birds calling, flowers blooming, and sunsets glowing as the wine is chilling. The cottage was comfortable, clean, nicely appointed and the view from the lanai that made it hard to leave in the morning to see the many noteworthy sights nearby. The location IS superb, however, for allowing early morning, uncrowded access to some of the most tourist heavy attractions on the east side. The property manager, Michelle, was just absolutely wonderful to communicate with and gracious with our questions. It helped to follow the guidelines of the house and we ended up having no issues with bugs or critters because of it. Personally, I have always loved the company of geckos -- I find their chirping comforting, and they eat bugs! What's not to like? As our stay fell on a weekend we were able to catch some live music and ono pizza at Hana farms one lovely evening. Definitely recommend bringing a few food staples with you for variety, but also recommend picking up fruit from roadside stands and trying some of the local food trucks and restaurants as well. This is the east side, so be prepared for rain at some point, but chances are good that it will be short lived and bring dazzling rainbows. Mahalo to the owner for sharing this bit of paradise with so many!

We arrived and very easily feel in love with this very homey cottage. We enjoyed the lanai for the early evening then went into town for dinner. Upon arrival back at the cottage there was a HUGE cockroach on the ceiling above the bed. We did not leave any doors open or have any lights on but still there it was. Needless to say, I could not sleep there and we ended up sleeping in our car.

The cottage was a cute and relaxing getaway on the island of Maui. After a long and windy drive on the Hana Highway, it was so nice to be greeted by this clean, relaxing, and quaint destination. Try to arrive during daylight hours though so you can find your way! Even with no A/C, it was very comfortable with the ceiling fan and windows open. The place was very clean and well-stocked with a full kitchen, beach towels, etc. You can choose to bring your own food or there are great little places to grab food in Hana a brief drive away.

Amazing 5 star review!
Everything was great! The Lanai View is top notch/unbeatable!!!
but i regrettably do need to make it 4.5 stars because of the bugs that tend to creep in. So if you’re insect-phobic, something to consider. But still the positives outweigh the 1 negative.

Relaxing environment with stunning view of the ocean. When we arrived I was worried about the noise level due how closeness to the road. Noise wasn’t a problem at all! We enjoyed the closeness to the hiking trails. Early morning hiking is ideal, little to no trail traffic and you get to experience the true beauty of nature before it becomes disturbed by tourists. The cottage was stunning, check in was easy. Highly recommend for individuals seeking so R&R in nature.

Wow! This cute little cottage is in an amazing location on a small cattle farm right on the coast. The views from the Lanai are indescribably gorgeous. If you are lucky, a few hungry cows may come greet you near the Lanai. The house is very comfortable and we found the kitchen perfectly suitable for cooking our meals to enjoy on the Lanai. At night there are stars all the way to the horizon. Getting there is an adventure along the road to Hana. There are great beaches, waterfalls, hiking all within short, exciting drives. We already miss this place, it will forever be in our memory as a happy place for a meditatve moment of Zen.

This place is exactly like the posting!! My husband and I stayed here for the last 3 days of our trip. It was the perfect, relaxing on the back deck every morning and night. The location is wonderful. There is a grocery store and food trucks within 15 minutes. It was nice to be able to enjoy the different sites along Hana over a few days, instead of cramming it all into one day. The host was extremely responsive to the one question we asked. We would definitely recommend staying here to anyone !! Small piece of paradise on earth ❤️

We stayed for a few nights at this beautiful cottage and loved it! The view off the deck was beautiful. It’s close to Hana town, some beautiful beaches and waterfalls! Watching the sunrises off the deck was perfect. We were able to do activities on the road to Hana on our own time thanks to the great location of the cottage. Thank you having us, it’s a trip we’ll never forget as we got engaged at Homoa beach!

If you like the description you will like the cottage - it is exactly as described. Out in the country with a fantastic ocean view. All glass (with screens) on the makai side so you can see the ocean from the bed. We slept with the doors open and heard the waves as we woke up. A wonderful place!

If you are looking for clean, peaceful country experience in Maui, away from the crowds and for a reasonable price, I would highly recommend this cottage. The view and the sounds were spectacular, the inside of the house was much nicer than expected. We were expecting to deal with more bugs and geckos based on the listing, but we hardly even noticed them. Overall, we had a lovely stay and would definitely be staying there again if we go back to Hana.

This open air, cozy, quaint, clean and tastefully decorated cottage with family art was beyond wonderful; truly worth the challenging road to Hana. It has all the creature comforts; well stocked kitchen, dreamy bed, large shower. Communication with Michelle was prompt, efficient and courteous. We spent 6 memorable days mostly enjoying the spacious lanai, ever changing light, colors and sea surf. How delightful to see the cows graze in the pasture below or to see the Milky Way at night. There are many notebooks from the past 23 years from world travelers filled with stories and art inspired by this magical cottage. We feel fortunate to be among them. Mahalo nui loa!!!

My husband and I had a wonderful 3 nights stay in this property. It is very comfortable and extremely serene and relaxing. There is plenty of sightseeing nearby, but honestly, we loved being "home" so much, we didn't want to be away for too long. Waking up to the ocean and morning stars still in the sky on the horizon was such a perfect way to start every day.

It was secluded, but it felt safe. Neighbors were virtually out of sight from the balcony. So it was pretty much the most amazing panorama view of an undeveloped, east Maui out towards Big Island. Super cool. It is was only 10-15mins from Hana. Easy to find by GPS. Cell reception was good for that side of the island. If going south the following day, it would be a 10min drive through some switchbacks to the Haleakala National Park. Perfect stop for our plan.
All facilities worked properly. The only thing I would wish for is a washer/dryer and more outlet plugs. However, that didn't matter too much to us as we were only there one day.
Also, the cattle came up to the house at night which was cool! I would recommend to those who could afford it!

A short drive away from Hana town and was a bit scared driving around but once we got there, the place was amazing. Would def recommend it and stay again. Place was so clean! Amazing views! Place is also convenient for the last couple of stops if doing the Road to Hana.

This property is a free standing, one bedroom cottage on the Southeast coast of Maui near Hana. The view from the porch is spectacular. There are other properties nearby but they are out of view so that the only thing you see from the porch is pasture, forest, ocean, and the Big Island in the distance. Enjoy the sites nearby early-morning or late-afternoon to avoid the crush of the Road to Hana day trippers. Retreat to your beautiful porch mid-afternoon for a happy hour while the crowds pass. The property manager clearly pays attention to the details...amenities, styling, and cleanliness were all perfect. The word "ranch" in the property is real. You'll have cows as neighbors and they are the best. Hana (restaurants, food trucks, groceries, gas) is just a short drive. For added adventure, travel in a Jeep and take the South road back to the other side of the island. The panoramic views on the South side are a stark contrast and equally beautiful to those on the North side Road to Hana.
