We stayed here for a few days in October and had a wonderful time. It’s a beautifully-designed place: it feels spacious, simple and minimalist, but also really comfortable. We felt completely at home cooking in the well-equipped kitchen and lounging on the chairs in the living area.
The deck has incredible views across to the sea, and we watched the sun set every evening. You can also see the same view from a full-length door opposite the walk-in shower, which is just fantastic! It’s the nicest shower I’ve ever experienced.
The cottage is near the main house but doesn’t feel overlooked; although you would be overlooked if you used the hot tub I guess. Some cars go by on the road but generally it’s very quiet and peaceful. The only thing some people might mind, if they are prone to wake up when it gets light, is that you can’t block out all the light in the bedroom; but we slept very well indeed.
The kitchen, unlike many AirBnBs, has pretty much everything you’d need: plenty of implements, sharp knives, kettle, blender, cafetiere, pans etc. There were some magazines and books about Maui in the sitting room which we found useful, and fresh soap and plenty of towels in the bathroom.
It’s great fun to have Kula the dog around! She occasionally came to the door wanting to say hello, and we loved her company.
Before coming to the cottage, we had spent a night (a birthday treat) at the Four Seasons, and were worried that an AirBnB would be an anticlimax after that! But as soon as we walked into the cottage we were delighted with it. It’s a really lovely, serene place and I would definitely return. Thank you Jeff and Kula!
