The cottage has great views of the water from the hot tub. It is in the North of Maui and has good access to major roads. John and Maggie live right next door and have another rental cottage on their property, but the location is very secluded and private. The hosts let us leave our luggage in the house upon check out and we were able to retrieve it later, which we really appreciated. The rooms were spacious, and the kitchen and bathroom satisfied our family of four basic needs. We did not sped much time indoors.
