We want to welcome you to the Kihei Garden Cottage, a luxury cottage in a tropical garden located in sunny Kihei, Maui. Maui's South Shore boasts with the most variety and breathtakingly beautiful beaches of all Hawaiian Islands. Just pack your swim suite and leave the rest to us. Staying in a house with relaxing outdoor spaces is truly one of the best ways to enjoy your vacation. This is a non-smoking property.

Why rent a private cottage? You never have to share the hot tub or the BBQ with any of the other tourists nor is there a closing time for the hot tub. You will never have to search for a parking space like a Costco parking lot. You can park in the driveway, which is directly in front of the house. When you have your large suitcases, Costco purchases, or coolers, your car is just out the front door instead of meandering through a large complex with your heavy items.

GREEN ENERGY HOME: We utilize the sun in Maui for all of our power needs.

Amazing private cottage!
My Husband and I just got married this month on the Big Island. I chose this because it would be perfect for our honeymoon in Maui. We loved the privacy, the location, the cleanliness, the clean/green atmosphere, and the quick and warm communication from Jenni. They had a wonderful book they created so we can ‘meet’ their family. It also provided so many adventures, places to eat, beaches to go to. I love this cottage and will absolutely reserve again for our future travel.

Amazing!
We stayed here for almost a week and it was the nicest place I have ever been to on Maui. So clean and the host was easy to communicate with. The ac and fans are a must with the heat and humidity. 10/10 would recommend. Close to all the shops and beaches.

Love this little cottage!
We only had 2 nights here, but I wish we could have stayed much longer - the accommodations were simply lovely - the landscaping created a private flower-filled oasis and the creation of outdoor living space makes the home seem at least twice as big. The owners were very responsive in communicating with us and I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Our only disappointment is that the nearest beach isn't really a swimming beach, but it has amazing sunsets!

About the host

Hosted by Jenni and Dave

Host profile image
Dave and Jenni would like to welcome you to their Garden Cottage in Kihei. We purchased this property in 2013 because we always enjoy the aloha spirit of the islands and love to go paddle boarding, snorkeling, and scuba diving. Dave dabbles with the guitar and ukulele and loves all the music that is so prevalent in Hawaii. Jenni spent some of her happiest years as a child living in Hawaii and we both feel connected to the island. We currently live in Seattle, and like you, plan our vacation getaways to Maui. We welcome you to our vacation paradise.

Why they chose this property

We chose this house because we really like the community in Kihei. We loved the family feel of the town, the parks, the beaches and it just felt like home. We really wanted a place where we could garden and walk to restaurants and the beach. We love the neighborhood being so close to everything you could ever need within walking distance including some of our favorite restaurants on the island. The cottage is our romantic getaway where we like to relax in style. Reducing our footprint on the environment is important to us, and we love the green energy of this home.
It took us over a year to get the permit and to set up the house. We finished setting the house up in late May 2014. We started a full-scale remodel on the cottage in 2017 and did not finish until March of 2018. We outfitted this home exactly how we want it for us. We furnished it with the top of the line in all areas, and while it will cost us more than the average vacation home, we think it makes this property very unique and something we can be proud of to share with others and be enjoyed for years to come.

What makes this property unique

Walking distance to the places we enjoy – the park, the beach, stand up paddle boarding, the restaurants, coffee, shops, and groceries.
