The unobstructed panoramic view of the ocean from the deck was enjoyed during breakfast, lunch and dinner and also just lounging or observing the cows grazing close by. The kitchen was highly functional as was the smaller bathroom with a larger waterfall shower. Parking right outside the front door allowed convenient loading and unloading for many beach trips and visits to the National Park just a few miles away.

Magical views of the ocean. Perfect way to break up the road to Road to Hana. Very close to the Wai'anapanapa State Park (must make reservations), Hana Lava Tubes, Hamoa Beach and the Pipiwai Trail, so save these stops to visit from this home base. The food trucks are all great ! My Tita's is a must stop for coffee. Stop at Hana Farms for a delicious wood fired pizza or cook in the well equipped kitchen and relax. The only issue we encountered was the beach chairs were not usuable, the owner was not aware of this and was going to replace. 5 star communication and location ! Very happy we stayed here.

Great place with a great view!

We absolutely loved this gem! The area is beautiful and the views are endless. I drank coffee in bed and gazed out at the ocean every morning. We will be back!

The cottage is quiet and peaceful! The view is spectacular! We had coffee and breakfast on the lanai every morning as we watched the rain roll in and out. This place is just perfect for two to relax and unwind after a day of hiking and travel on the road to Hana!

This property was advertised as having a hot tub and that was one of the primary reasons I chose it. This property DOES NOT have a hot tub and apparently never did. I will be requesting a refund.

Overall a really good stay. Unfortunately hit some complications that had me stranded as the home owner just happened to be out of town- beware the front door is auto locking so even if you’re just stepping out to your car have the house key in hand! I had also met a centipede for the first time which was also a first for me. Clean house with all of the amenities needed as well a comfortable bed.

We absolutely loved our stay in this cottage in Hana. I cant recommend it enough. It was everything we hoped for. Clean and very comfortable for the two of us celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary. The bed was super comfortable. The kitchen provided everything we needed. We cooked on the charcoal grill one night. The porch facing the ocean was magical to have coffee in the morning and cocktails at night. Ocean on one side- breath taking mountains on the other side! Cows grazing and mooing 20 ft. from our front door. It was just amazing in every way! We stayed 3 nights so we could really spend time in Hana and explore and not feel rushed. If you're looking for a place to stay in Hana, just stop looking and book this cottage- if its available! We do recommend you rent a Jeep or similar vehicle so you can easily park at the cottage.

We loved the little cottage. Waking up to the sound of birds and watching them from the deck everyday was wonderful. The absolute privacy of our deck was a real treat! The appliances were in excellent condition and easy to use. The screens kept all insects . This is a honeymoon cottage even if you’ve been together 50 years‼️💯☮️💖😍

Everything was wonderful! The location was perfect for a relaxing and quiet getaway and the views were beautiful. The house had everything we needed from kitchen supplies to beach gear. The checkin instructions were accurate and we appreciated the detailed instructions. Hana and this house was our favorite stay during our trip to Hawaii and we were so sad to leave!

Great little place for our honeymoon! There are quite a few bugs around the place and ants can get on the counter very easily, so just be aware of that with lights at night and such. But the place is just off the road to Hana and is super close to great beaches and hikes! It's a small place but it's plenty of room for 2. But it was very peaceful, the view is amazing, and we would highly recommend this place!

This was an awesome house. We loved it. Hope to come back

Property is small but everything you need. Definitely a very private country feeling with amazing views. Very relaxing, this property is close to the road but traffic is not very busy.

Beautiful location, well outfitted and clean cottage overlooking the ocean and the Big Island in the distance.

Gorgeous view, perfect place for a couple, comfortable bed, has almost everything you need to have a "unplugged" vacation getaway. Bring groceries/drink with you to have what you want as choices are limited in Hana, and more expensive. No AC, but the normal winds thru this cottage keep it quite comfortable. Really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again for sure.

This was our second time staying here and it was just as great as the first time. You will have a hard time finding a view with ocean and cow noise that is this spectacular. If you want a relaxing stay with an adventure getting there then this place is it! Thanks for letting us enjoy this wonderful place one more time.

We could not be happier and grateful we got the chance to reload our batteries at such a beautiful place. The cottage might not look that eye catching from the outside but once you enter, you are simply in paradise! The cottage had all we needed to find relaxation and comfort. The cows wandering by and the breathtaking ocean view right from the bed/patio are amazing. You go to sleep with and wake up to the ocean view. No AC, and it was not needed at all! We enjoyed the fresh air and the easy things you can do in Hana. I specially the Hamoa beach. Deeply recommend for some paradisiacal me out.

Loved our stay. It was very peaceful and had a wonderful view. Very relaxing.

Cottage was perfect for what we were looking for! Definitely the best place to stay in order to get away from the touristy areas of Maui. We enjoyed every moment in the cottage!

If you are looking for serene and beautiful this is your place. Hana is the quiet, out of the way side of the island and this cottage epitomizes that. The view is stunning. Being able to see the sun rise over the ocean from bed is amazing. Cottage is not fancy, but has a lot a character and everything you need.

Still dreaming about this place. The most calming and cozy cottage - with cows mooing, rolling hills and ocean views. Michelle was very responsive and sweet and made sure we had everything we needed. Already planning our next trip back. Thanks so much again!

Exactly as advertised - This house is great and Hana is my favorite place on earth

This property was incredible! Very good location, well equipped and clean. The kitchen had everything we needed for some light cooking (microwave, fridge, some oil/utensils and a pan) and the view was spectacular. We didn't really have much of a problem with bugs/lizards either.

We loved the cottage so much! It was by far our favorite of the five places we stayed across Oahu, Hawaii and Maui during our three week vacation. We loved the remote location, the incredible view from the lanai, and the easy access to the Kipahulu District of Haleakala NP. (PRO TIP: It's a 20ish minute drive from the cottage to the Pipiwai trailhead. Arrive there at 7:30 AM to have the waterfalls, banyan tree, and bamboo forest completely to yourself. Otherwise expect a non-stop line of people.) We only stayed three nights and wished we'd stayed longer. Maybe next time!

Amazing no frills rental property with stunning ocean views. The route to get to the house is a bit difficult to navigate (as described), but once there it is a peaceful private property with all of the essentials covered.

This property was absolutely amazing! Can not say enough about it! Absolutely perfect get away for two! Complete with everything you need. Will be returning!

Lovely place to stay. Kitchen was stocked well. Would have been nice to have a gas BBQ grill. We enjoyed time on the lanai watching whales and cows.

Amazing tranquility, breathtaking view from the lanai. We loved the birds singing at 6, the rain, full moon and just watching the clouds and light change. Definitely food for the soul! Michelle was very gracious! Thank you for another memorable trip, we’ll be back!

I was skeptical about this listing being as good as it looked and described. As it turned out I was right, it was better. It was comfortable and well equipped but the best part is the location right on the water front. It feels like your are alone in a place you only see on television. Despite the fatigue of a long day driving to Hana, I couldn’t wait to wake up to see what the sunrise would look like and it didn’t disappoint. I will definitely stay longer on our next trip to Maui.

We had a lovely stay at the Koali Ranch Cottage. We ended each day relaxing on our lanai overlooking the ocean. It was perfect.

This was exactly what we were looking for our time in Maui. We enjoyed the slower pace of life there and the small town feel of Hana. Definitely would stay again if we ever make our way to Maui in the future.

Gorgeous ocean view, privacy, a million stars. The Koali Cottage had everything we needed for a memorable stay. We loved it and can highly recommend.
