Solar carport sports a charger for an electric car. There is all the power you need as the villa is connected to Maui Electric.

Open a wall of glass doors breathing in balmy tropical breezes and experience Kula; scenic, serene, satisfying.

Inspired island living in an exquisite architecturally designed home, both casual/comfortable, and luxurious. This home has it all - ideal location and temperatures, privacy, stunning views, a lanai off every room, indoor/outdoor living, and easy access to everything Maui.

Awaken to the sound of birds and the sunrise over Haleakala. Sip locally grown coffee and enjoy tree ripened papaya on the back lanai, or 5 minutes away savor a fresh baked authentic French croissant and an espresso at La Provence, a charming outdoor café.

Explore the island: Haleakala, Hana, snorkeling, windsurfing, hiking, shopping, sunbathing, zipline, botanical & lavender gardens, horseback riding, wine tasting, tennis, golf, or jumping into a pool of fresh water next to a waterfall.

After a full day of activities and adventures, return home, kick off your shoes and relax on the lanai with a glass of wine overlooking the spectacular sunset views over the ocean and West Maui Mountains.

Dine on fresh fish grilled on the barbecue, and after dark be dazzled by the brilliant Milky Way and night lights of Maui. There are so many things to do and see. We provide an information book for leisurely planning of your next adventure.

Booked this place for 5 nights with my partner to celebrate our 20th anniversary, and my niece visited us from her home on the Big Island with her partner for 3 of the nights. All 4 of us were very pleased with the house. The view from the front lanai of the West Maui Mountains with ocean on both sides is amazing, especially around sunset. The house can get a bit hot in the hours leading up to sunset due to the way the sun shines in, but there are big screen doors to the front and back lanais which line up to get a good cross-breeze going. The master bedroom has the same great view, with the bonus of having its own AC unit (all 3 bedrooms have one) if needed. Plenty of space, and I don't think it would have felt crowded even if there were 6 of us. The back lanai is great for grilling, with a large table and a professional grade gas grill, and the 2 large lanais essentially give you 2 extra rooms to spread out. Also off the back lanai is the outdoor bathroom, great for showers with a view. (Including the outdoor bathroom, there are 4 showers and 3 toilets on the property, so there was no jockeying for bathroom time.) The kitchen is spacious and very well equipped for a rental house. We had everything we needed and more for cooking. The place was clean, well maintained, nicely furnished, and in a good location for exploring Upcountry and beyond. I would stay here again in a heartbeat and have no qualms recommending it to strangers or friends.

It was lovely to find a house instead of having to stay in one of those golf course condos or "resorts." Kula is not a tourist town but is a good central location from which to explore the island. If you want to be in the middle of the tourist experience, do not stay here. If you want to be able to dip your toe in, but then retreat to a calm, quiet neighborhood, this is the place. There are nearby activities such as para-gliding, "road to Hana," farms, restaurants, etc. Paia, the nearest largish tourist town, is great. Only 20 minutes away. A smaller tourist town is even closer. The house has some minor wear and tear but was very comfortable and spacious. The patio view is top notch. We had a great experience.

Very nice property, they had all the extras that we loved. Zip lock bags for snacks for grandson, spices for nice dinners, even lotion for when we ran out. Best for hubby was cold tablet and lozengers when he felt sick last day.

After so many stays in the lowlands, it was so refreshing to stay up-mountain with the cool afternoon breezes, expansive views and peace and quiet. (Occasional rooster but disturbing in any way). The home is big, beautiful and so stylishly decorated. The bedrooms are big with tons of closet space and super comfortable beds. There is air conditioning throughout as well. The host was super responsive and helpful with tips on local markets and activities. The home is also equipped with tons of beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. In short, it was the perfect stay and we'll definitely be back!

We felt at home in this beautiful mountain house. I am so glad we stayed here. Peaceful sunset nights meant for stargazing and breathtaking mountain sunrises. Perfect location for a drive up to Haleakalā, the Road to Hana, and the beaches. Nothing is overlooked in this home. Char and Crispin took good care of us. Thank you for sharing your piece of heaven.

I cannot say enough positive things about our experience at the Island Sunset Villa. The gorgeous property has ample space and many outdoor areas to enjoy the view. You can see the mountains, the ocean, and so much green space from each lanai! The bedrooms were roomy, the kitchen was well-equipped, and there was plenty of outdoor space. Having a washer and dryer made packing light possible. I loved showering from the master bath and seeing the beautiful views—I had never experienced anything like that before. The villa featured all the amenities, including board games and books. But honestly, we just enjoyed Maui and the views the most. Never even turned on the TV! Even the drive to the villa, through the neighborhood, was beautiful. One aspect that stood out besides the beauty was the attentive owners. Char and Crispin were responsive to emails before our arrival. Crispin was available by text during our stay and provided a fanatic tour of the villa upon arrival. He offered great recommendations about places to visit (Ocean Vodka, multiple beaches, and small towns) and places to eat (Maui Slice, Kula Bistro, and others). I will return to Maui and look at renting the Island Sunset Villa again! Just a dream vacation all around :)
