This was a great little cottage that was very convenient to upcountry attractions and the Road to Hana while still being close to restaurants and the store. It definitely had a more secluded, rainforest feel compared to all of the condos in south and west Maui. It's a nice place to stay to get away from the throngs of tourists in other parts of Maui.
The cottage was exactly as described. The shower was not pictured in the description but was an amazing walk in stone shower. The cottage was more than enough room for 2 people. Of note, the lofted second bed does require climbing up a ladder so may not be the best option if people have mobility issues.
You are close to the other cottage at the location but there was enough room for privacy and I never really noticed the people at the other cottage. This part of Maui is cooler so the lack of air conditioning is not noticeable or bothersome as there was always a nice breeze.
The cottage is located steps away from the town center and my husband and I walked over to the market for dinner and groceries regularly. Would definitely recommend eating at Colleen's, Nuka, and the food trucks close by.
One thing to know about the location is that wild chickens roam the neighborhood and if you are a light sleeper, the rooster calls in the morning may be bothersome. It did not affect our stay since we were early risers.
Overall, would definitely stay here again on any future trips to the island!
