About this cottage rental
Experience the best in Maui Hawaii when you stay in this 2bedroom/2 bathroom private Hawaiian plantation style cottage located within minutes of the Luxury Resorts including The Four Seasons, Maui Wailea & The Grand Wailea Resort on Maui’s South Shore.
When you open the double door entry gates, time and the world you left behind begin to fade away. You will step into your private mini resort with outside Tiki bar, swimming lagoon. This private oasis is adjacent to thousands of undeveloped acres, yet minutes to the beach, golf, tennis, fine dining, shopping, and the resorts of Wailea and Makena, offering world-class amenities. This is a very unique vacation rental.
Outstanding ocean views greet you from your private cottage, pool, and bar. Lush tropical landscaping including exotic plants, bananas, and papayas provide you with flowers and fruit. Rich in Hawaiian culture through its artwork and furnishings, you will awaken to the chorus of bird songs including wild lovebirds.
Beneath the rising slopes of Haleakala, enjoy floating in the pool beneath the star-filled sky as there are few lights in this area to distract you from your paradise.

We booked this stay expecting a lot based on the previous reviews. Believe me when I tell you we got even more than we expected! This cottage and the surrounding pool area are perfection!! Carrie has absolutely everything you need to stay. She even has yoga mats and robes!
Carrie and Danny were so accommodating and helpful! She even had fresh fruit from her yard waiting for us. Her home is located right by many shops,restaurants and beaches. It’s just a quick drive to everything. My family will absolutely stay here again if we get back to Maui!

When I booked Aunty Kali's Cottage, I never imagined that paradise would be ours for a week. I'll tell you that the pictures really don't do it justice. The views of the ocean at sunset, the beautiful native plants and flowers, and even the wildlife (mongooses and all!). Having a pool and bar even made the cottage the Happy Hour spot for our family to come to before dinner.
Aunty Kali was also amazing, greeting us with a warm smile and a delicious homemade banana bread. She was so attentive and hospitable and we will, without doubt, be returning time and time again.

We were able to share Carriie’s Cottage this time with family. It was fun to see their initial reaction when we opened the doors to our oasis for a week. They were blown away!
Carrie’s attention to every detail makes it such a special place to stay on Maui. It’s our favorite by far!
5.0
We have been lucky enough to stay at this wonderful property and it is always an amazing experience. Our family loves the private outdoor area and pool - it makes you feel like you have your own tropical oasis. The owner is kind, caring and responsive. She is always available and easy to contact, yet makes sure you have all the privacy you want during your stay. This property is a true gem!
5.0
We've stayed at this property multiple times over multiple years. It is by far the best place to stay that we've experienced in decades of traveling to Maui. The host (Carrie) is pleasant and caring and really wants to make sure that you have a great time while you're on site and has become someone who we look forward to seeing every year. The house itself is a great size (not too big, not too small), but the real special part are the outside areas that allow for pure relaxation. You'll see amazing sunsets while relaxing alongside the pool. It's as good as it gets.

This was our 2nd time staying at the cottage. Again, everything was perfect and we totally relaxed. We visit Maui every couple of years and we hope to continue to stay here as it will be hard to stay anyplace else! Banana bread is an added bonus.

Our stay @ Auntie Cali’s Cottage went beyond our expectations. This is a hidden gem in paradise!
One of our best stays in Maui. Truly an awesome
30 year anniversary celebration!
You have to visit yourself because words alone cannot express how much we loved this stay.
Carrie is a wonderful host and easy to work with. Her brother Dan is very friendly and her mother makes an awesome banana bread.
Most humbled and grateful for our stay.
Thank you Carrie❣️

The cottage and grounds are a lush, tropical paradise. Everything is clean and well-maintained. I loved the pool and hot tub and spent hours lazing in the sun.
Terrific hosts.
We will return!

A perfect place for four. So nice with the pool/hot tub and tiki bar. There was really little reason to leave the property.

Move over Disneyland, we found THE most magical place on earth.
We booked this cottage for our 30th Anniversary, looking for a private, relaxing getaway, and we were not disappointed! From the moment we stepped through the double doors to the PRIVATE pool/outdoor bar/outdoor barbecue and 2 separate outdoor showers, it was breathtakingly beautiful and by far exceeded our expectations!
The cottage is beautiful, very clean (I didn’t see one bug in the house our entire stay) and very well stocked with everything you need to prepare your own meals. It definitely had the home away from home feel. The cottage may be in the back of the hosts home, however, they did a great job of separating the two so it is extremely private with your own entrance. We rarely saw the hosts (giving us our privacy) but they were available if we needed anything.
Thank you Carrie and family for making our anniversary stay unforgettable. We couldn’t have found a more incredible place to stay!

This oasis was beautiful, but for the price.. it could have been better. The pool was dirty up until the pool guy got there halfway through our stay, this attracted more mosquitoes and bugs than it normally would. There were tiny beetles in the house itself, due to the live plants that are in the home. They have avoided cleaning out a kitchen cabinet that has old medicine and food in it. They keep alcohol in the outdoor bar that has been open and used. The pool shed is especially dirty with snorkel masks that have bugs all inside the breathing tubes. Although they don’t have bed bugs that I seen, they also didn’t have a bed bug cover to protect themselves from getting bed bugs. Although the place was private, it wasn’t really all that private as it was in their backyard. They no longer have a private chef that they are close to and can have come to you and as far as I could tell, a masseuse. You are however able to find one yourself and have them come to you. The people that own the property are really nice people, and greet you every time they see you. We did really like them, but nearly $1000 a night for 2 people? For that price alone, the place should be maintained a little better. You can find resorts cheaper than that with a lot better maintenance and better privacy. The place is private and gorgeous, with a decent view of Wailea and the ocean in the distance. We did enjoy our stay a lot, but if I could give advice, don’t go for a honeymoon.

This was our first visit to Hawaii, for my 50th and our son’s 16th birthdays, and it was exactly the special place we had in mind to celebrate those milestones. Carrie considered every detail - from welcome treats and delicious home-baked banana bread to beach gear to a fully-stocked kitchen to the gorgeous pool and gardens - we didn’t want or need for anything during our stay. It was very close to the resorts of Wailea, many beautiful beaches, shopping and restaurants.
We were here during the devastating Maui wildfires and felt extremely fortunate to be staying in this peaceful oasis. We are praying for Maui’s recovery and hope to be lucky enough to return again. We would recommend this cottage to anyone visiting Maui.

Auntie Kali’s cottage was perfection from our arrival (and Grandma Jean’s delicious banana bread) until we sadly had to check out and return home. Carrie was communicative but never intruding. I said more than once we can only return to Maui if we stay in this oasis again! Truly an amazing stay!

This was our second stay at the cottage and of course it was phenomenal. The cottage was just as clean and beautiful as always. Carries attention to detail is what makes this property so special. Grandma Jean, Dan and Carrie. We love you for making us feel like Ohana.

Carrie, Dan & Chris were awesome, there if you need anything. The plant life had grown a little in four years but the landscaping and amenities were the same and perfect! It really is a paradise, so relaxing at the pool, the views of the water and sunset is breathtaking. We look forward to a repeat (again)!

The cottage offers every imaginable outdoor amenity plus beautifully decorated, fully equipped accommodations. Loved having all the beach gear on hand. Attention to detail shows throughout the property.
Location was perfect for beach access, groceries and restaurants. Our faves were the outdoor shower and incredible star gazing.
Great communication and hospitality. Thanks Carrie. Can’t wait to return!

There are only 5 stars available, but this paradise deserves 11! This was our second visit and we have already booked our third. There aren't enough ideal synonyms to describe the beauty. Words and pictures just don't do it justice. It's absolutely wonderful!!

This is our second trip back to Maui and our second time staying here. We absolutely love this place and can't say enough good things about the property. The accommodations are comfortable, and the views are outstanding. We find this to be the perfect location with easy access to all areas of the Island with a short drive.
We will definitely be back!

We’ve been coming to Maui for years, but this was our best vacation ever. The cottage is clean and well-appointed. The grounds are so lush, so beautifully maintained, so private and secluded. We also loved the pool and hot tub. Carrie was so friendly and helpful. Perfect holiday

Auntie Kali's Cottage is, indeed, magical. The landscaping is beyond lush. You will enjoy the birds serenading you in the morning. We only used the outdoor shower even though there are two inside. Carrie has decorated and stocked the cottage so well. It is indeed a tropical paradise. She , truly, has thought of everything. Don't book too many excursions as you will want to be here, in the pool, most of the time. See other recent reviews that describe all that Carrie provides. Can't wait to come back for our third visit. Mahalo, Carrie for a wonderful, relaxing getaway with our daughters.

This place was beyond our expectations, so beautiful and peaceful. We had everything we needed and the hosts made us feel so welcome and continued to check on us to make all was good. Loved our stay and we will be coming back for sure. Thanks so much!

I am ambivalent about my talking about this “Hawaiian cottage“. Ambivalent because I want to tote it’s many excellent features which include privacy, pool, country feel, comfortable bed, excellent outside shower, first class chase lounges and furniture as well as the tiki bar. On the other hand I do not want a lot of people to know about it because it decreases its availability for my own use in the future. Carrie, The manager, could not have been more welcoming even though she was out of town. She make sure her brother was here to welcome us and walk us through the property. Her mother Jean, 96, baked us a wonderful loaf of mango bread. We want to come back.

Another amazing stay at Auntie Kali’s cottage
This is our second stay at this amazing cottage. The cottage itself is so cute and stocked with everything you need and the outside is beautifully landscaped with a sparkling pool and spa. Great location, close to beaches, shopping, dining and airport.
The hosts are great too! Really special people that really want you to experience your vacation.

The BEST place to stay in Maui
I honestly don't think it gets better than Auntie Kali's cottage in Maui. We have stayed a lot of places over the years and both my husband and I agreed this was one of the best places we've ever stayed. We will definitely be back for a return stay in the future. The outdoor space really make the experience - from the lush landscaping, pool, fire pit, outdoor bar to the grill & hot tub, we joked that we used every inch of the place. Carrie, Chris, Dan and Grandma Jean are also some of the most thoughtful & kind hosts you will ever come across. In particular, Grandma Jean's homemade mango bread blew us away. We bought banana bread on the Road to Hana and agreed her mango bread was much better. Also worth noting that we brought our 2 year old with us and the walk in shallow area of the pool area was so perfect for him. We also really appreciated that the cottage had a toddler sized life jacket and sand and beach toys in addition to beach chairs, an umbrella, beach towels and a small cooler that made trips to the beach (when you can pull yourself away from the amazing pool) a breeze. Carrie, Chris, Dan & Grandma Jean - THANK YOU! We can't wait to return. Grandma Jean - our two year old loved you :)

Carrie and her family were the best hosts. We could not have asked for anything more. Our flight was delayed so we didn’t get to the cottage until after dark and Carrie had the yard lit up for us—the photos do not do it justice! My husband and I were in awe of the property. It is amazing. I couldn’t get over all the beautiful tropical plants. The view of the surrounding islands is gorgeous. The pool and hot tub are fantastic and on our “exploring” days, coming back afterward to relax in them and enjoy the property was the perfect end to the day. Even on the days we just hung out at the cottage, it was excellent - we felt like we were in paradise. I’d get up at sunrise just to watch and listen to nature come alive around me. If you enjoy bird watching, you will have entertainment all day long at the cottage. While I was in the (wonderful) outdoor shower, a red crested cardinal hopped right over and then flew to the tree branch in front of the shower. Amazing! We even saw zebra dove babies. The cottage was clean and beyond fully stocked, we had all we needed and then some. Grandma Jean’s banana bread and the apple bananas fresh from the yard were the icing on the cake. Thank you for giving us the best honeymoon ever! I cried before we left bc I was so sad to leave the property. It was heavenly and we hope to return!

...or IT SHOULD BE! If you see this property for rent, book it! We were so fortunate enough to have found dates to book that worked with our schedule. When we arrived we were greeted by Carrie and Grandma Jean with homemade banana bread and fruit waiting for us. Talk about above and beyond hospitality. The property was seriously something out of a magazine. Our own oasis, which our daughter loved every bit of. Carrie truly thought of everything. I can honalestly say we've never stayed in a more pristine location in all of our travels. This by far takes the cake. We will, with upmost certainty, be back.

Thanks Carrie and Jean. You two are gems 🥰
