I can’t describe in words what a wonderful experience it was staying at Entabeni Cottage for one day and one night in the middle of Maui’s beautiful tropical rain forest just outside of Hana with an ocean view to die for and all the peace and serenity anyone could ever ask for. Terry and Michael were wonderful hosts and provided us with a wonderful tour of their gardens. Highly recommended for sure!

The cottage was a delight. Warmly decorated, a comfortable king bed, amazing porch with expansive view of the ocean. Terry and Michael, our hosts, were terrific. We communicated with Terry several times before even leaving for Maui. We were given excellent advice. On arrival, Terry welcomed us with a tour of her amazing tropical garden. Her knowledge of plants and love for them were extraordinary. This was a very memorable stay. We would love to come back.

Terry and Micahel were excellent hosts. Terry personally made sure we were settled in, and Michael gave us a tour of their beautiful gardens. The cottage had fantastic views to the ocean. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.

An unforgettable stay with lovely hospitable hosts. Terry gave us such helpful info even before arriving at the cottage. The cottage has everything you need to prepare your meal. Thoroughly enjoyed our garden tour with Michael, a knowledgeable botanist. Look forward to coming back!

We arrived after dark so we had no idea what anything looked like when we went to bed. What a place to wake up in! The cottage felt like home immediately. And the view! Truly awesome. We found everything about it very relaxing.
The rest of the property was a lot to take in. Michael and Terry have created an amazing, stunningly beautiful place.
We stayed for a week. Our goals were to check out of the hectic pace and recharge. This was the perfect place for both.
Each day, we took our time getting ready. Then we went to do 1 activity, took our time, had lunch. After that, we made dinner at the cottage from mostly local food. They supplied fresh eggs and some herbs. We got the rest at local shops and stands and one day we drove down to Pa'ia to visit Mana Foods (highly recommended).
We ate well, slept well, and drove around slow for a few days. If that sounds like your speed, I cannot recommend this place enough.

If you are looking to stay in a true Hawaiian tropical oasis, this is it. The owners are so down to earth and knowledgeable about the area. Our trip to Hawaii was a once in a lifetime trip and this property was different than any other place we have ever stayed in. Off the grid and stunning views. It is a hidden gem.

It was so fun to stay with my daughter. We made deviled eggs with the farm fresh eggs they left us, and salad with fresh cucumbers, tomatoes and lettuce!!!! We enjoyed the whole garden adventure, it was a gorgeous landscape. Not small at all. We visited the garden of Eden right bf we came to the cottage and had the same feel. The cottage has a beautiful ocean view. It felt very private, but also the cofort of great hosts just a walk away.

This Was pieced as last minute for 2 days before returning to mainland. We arrived 1100 am Saturday and stowed our luggage and food, left to hike falls and bamboo forest at pei pei wha trail what a magnificent hike. Sunday we hiked to black sand beach and lava tube. Such a quiet and peaceful night on Saturday very relaxing and restoring. Next time here will stat 4-7 days at least. This place is quiet a find.

My husband and I loved staying at this cottage. The property is gorgeous and Terry and Michael were super helpful. We enjoyed exploring the garden with the help of their friendly cat, Kat! We loved visiting Hana and are really glad we spent four nights here. This was a very convenient location to explore all the Hana has to offer. We can't wait to come back some day!

We enjoyed every moment of our stay in the cottage. Michael and Terry are incredibly kind and put a lot of effort into helping their guests feel right at home. It rained a lot one night so the entire area lost power. We didn’t mind, it felt very cozy in the cottage listening to the rain. And they brought us candles and checked on us to make sure we were okay. Terry also gave us a tomato from their garden and eggs from their chickens for breakfast every morning and a personal tour of their gardens which was so enjoyable. The views are incredible and the location so close to Hana makes it much easier to explore the Road to Hana. We could take our time and avoid the crowds at all the sites because we were so close to a beautiful home base. There is fast and reliable WiFi but honestly we barely used it and instead enjoyed unplugging in this Hawaiian paradise. Pictures don’t do it justice, all the amenities were perfect for our needs. Thank you for such a peaceful stay! Mahalo!

We loved everything about Entabeni Gardens. Terry and Michael were the best hosts we have had on VRBO— very responsive and hospitable.
The property is incredible and completely off the grid. Truly “unplugged”. The plants and garden are something out of this world.
Terry had everything for us to use from beach and snorkel gear, to kitchen utilities. We would definitely stay here again. Loved this place!

It is hard for me to put in words how much I loved our stay. Terry is a wonderful host! My favorite part was exploring the gardens. I would love to have stayed longer!

What an interesting and enjoyable space. Peaceful, private and beautiful! Everything you need from a small gas grill on the spectacular front porch to a fully equipped kitchen. Abundance of interesting decor inside and a literal flower, plant and tree garden outside. The ocean breeze, intermittent showers and ocean vistas rounded out a great stay. The hosts were readily available if needed, but scarce otherwise. Only 5 miles from Hana, but seemed like a different island. Highly recommended!

Terry was an incredibly generous host. She welcomed us into her home which was absolute bliss. The garden setting is peaceful and my daughter absolutely adored the cat, dog, and chickens. We even had fresh eggs and herbs from the farm for breakfast. The spectacular ocean views were mesmerizing. Will definitely come back next time we are in Maui.

Dear Michael and Terry, Countless words can not express our gratitude to you both. For your gracious hospitality and for sharing this beautiful green space. We will never forget these five peaceful days celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary. We felt we were the only two people alone in Paradise. After hiking amazing trails each day we slept great every night on the comfy bed with the moon shining, the ocean breeze blowing, blow. The frogs, birds and insects singing and the bamboo thicket rustling. We were cocooned by nature. We would be remiss not to also say thank you for the many delicious fresh eggs, herbs, bananas, cucumbers, peppers, and the meatiest and most delicious tomatoes ever. we loved seeing the chickens, guineas, and Kat and Kit, of course. Your lush gardens were a delight to wander through. Everything is so thoughtfully designed, and the artwork and garden features just added to the unique experience. Loved the framed quote in the study. “learn of the green world what can be thy place.” We truly found a special place here. Thank you for your years of love and labor to grow this paradise. With sincere gratitude, may God bless you both and your families too.

The cottage gives you a feeling that you have gone back in time where there are no fast paced pressure and worries. In the evening sitting on the front porch with my wife and a bottle wine was so peaceful listening to the birds and rain. The bed was very comfortable and sleeping with the doors open kept the room at a perfect cool temperature. There are all of the amenities you need for cooking, showering and laundry. Watching the sunrise was gorgeous with all of the colors in the clouds. While eating breakfast (with supplied fresh eggs, peppers and coffee with our added meat) on the porch was so beautiful as the light from the sun intensified as it kept rising behind the clouds over the ocean. The colors of the plants around use kept transforming until they were fully exposed showing all of their colors. We heard strange clicking or chirps coming towards us and we watched some Guinea hens go through the yard. There is the added bonus of being able to tour the yard which is a botanical garden with a huge variety of plants and trees to wonder through on the paths. The whole property is off of the grid for water and solar with an added bonus of WIFI so you can look up the types of plants you took pictures of in case you didn't see the markers and to send pictures to your friends to make them jealous of where you were able to stay. This was a great break for our tour of the Hana side of Maui to rejuvenate for the ride back to the west side.

The cottage and grounds are a slice of heaven on earth. The cottage was well stocked with everything we needed and more, and the grounds and view were breathtaking. Terry and Kat made us feel welcome from the minute we arrived, and Kat was a great companion whenever we were outside on the porch. We are so happy that we decided to stay two nights at the cottage to explore Hana and the surrounding area.

After 4 days in Honolulu and 3 more in Wailea (Maui), we were in desperate need for some peace and quiet and relaxation. And we found it here!
The vibe is calming and tranquil. The cottage exudes relaxation. The grounds provide an peaceful earthing experience.
It was so nice to eat fresh eggs and veggies/fruit. The hosts (Michael & Terry) are fantastic people; they provided excellent directions and suggestions for local attractions. Michael was very thorough during his welcome tour and they were both lovely and welcoming. I would highly recommend this place! We will return again.

Wow! I was expecting a beautiful garden but what Michael and Terry have built at Entabeni totally blew my mind!! The gardens are breath taking! We enjoyed walking them and Terry was so kind to show us around and even gave us fresh veggies/fruits! The cottage is gorgeous and comfortable. The bed was super comfortable. We stayed 2 nights which was great to do pipiwai trail, black sand beach, and a couples massage at Luana Spa (highly recommend). Thank you for sharing your tropical paradise!

Once again (our 3rd time here), we really enjoyed our stay at this magical oasis. Beautiful views and the peaceful, serene grounds make for the most relaxing stay. The hosts are always gracious and welcoming (fresh eggs and garden delights!). It’s such a treat to come back to after a glorious day out enjoying Hana’s wonders. This treasured cottage is difficult to leave, and we are always planning the next trip almost immediately. Aloha! J & A

This place is paradise! Terry was so helpful answering all our questions before we arrived and after. The cottage is so cozy and plenty of room for two people. Our only complaint would be that we couldn't stay longer. If you love plants/flowers this is a must stay. The gardens are so beautiful! Thank you for sharing your slice of heaven with us.

The hosts felt like family. The house was huge. The pictures don’t do it justice. Staying in Hana was a complete escape. I would go back to this Vrbo again and again. Its a hidden gem for sure

Great relaxing location.
One odd thing though... The property owners came into the cottage when we left. Once to do the dishes, and another I'm not sure about. We closed the door to the cottage when we left, and whenever we returned, we found the door wide open.
If they would have let us know they were going to do this it would have been fine. But they didn't, and our privacy felt violated.

Terri and Michael's cottage is simply amazing! The cottage is lovely and very well appointed, the garden is magical and the view is spectacular (when the clouds lift :-)) It rained most of the time we were there (just one night unfortunately) but we liked that too--lulled to sleep by the patter of rain on a tin roof!

So well kept and inviting! Terry and Michael maintain their property with a real sense of what God intended people to do with His Creation. They made us feel very welcome and we had a wonderful time!!!

Our visit was absolutely wonderful. Terry welcomed us upon arrival letting us know about our cottage. Fresh eggs were a great perk. Kat the cat was an excellent cohost welcoming us every evening and morning. The bed was comfortable and the view was astonishing! Definitely make sure to get there before dark… we didn’t and had a difficult time finding the drive in the dark. Our fault though because Terry did warn us in the check in information. After finding it the first time it wasn’t that bad.
I 10/10 recommend this slice of paradise and hope to return some day! Aloha and Mahalo from Missouri

This cottage is an amazing slice of paradise. It sits in the middle of a botanical garden with the most beautiful view of the ocean. The cottage is equipped with just about everything you need except food. Michael and Terry are wonderful hosts and will deliver you farm fresh eggs if you want them, which you will. 😋 This will be our place to stay in Hana.

my husband and I loved our stay at Terry and Michael’s place just 8 miles from Hana. Terry greeted us when we arrive and gave us a rundown on the cottage. We are very pleasantly surprised at the beautiful view and the quaintness of the cottage. The bed was comfortable as well as the linens. I would highly recommend staying here.

Words can’t really describe our stay. It was wonderful. I felt like we were living in the midst of a tropical jungle - the beautiful flowers, trees, and plants were amazing. The cottage was so unique, clean, and well equipped, and what we didn’t have, our host, Terri, graciously supplied. And speaking of our hosts, Terri and Michael were so warm and kind. I felt like they were family. Terri gave us a tour of the flower farm shortly after arrival. She was so knowledgeable and showed us so many stunning flowers and plants. The views from the cottage are beautiful and we loved the nighttime sounds of nature with all the windows and doors open. We also loved the company of Kit and Kat- the resident outdoor kitties who are very friendly!
I would highly recommend staying here if you want a truly unique and beautiful experience. It’s much more than just a place to sleep. We hated to leave and next time would stay more than 2 nights!

This place is paradise! The absolute perfect place to get away from the crowds, decompress, and enjoy peace and quiet. Fresh eggs, fruit, juice, and herbs complimentary from the host made our breakfast one that we will never forget! Picking fresh ripe fruit from the garden in the morning is the best way to start your day! Kit, Kat, and Star were the best travel pets and we loved having them around! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!
