Description

Specialties

We are a small bed and breakfast on the south side of Maui, just ½ mile from the beach with great ocean views from the common breakfast area where guests gather for morning conversation and breakfast. You come as a guest and leave as family.

History

Established in 1995.

We opened our bed and breakfast in Maui 20 years ago. It has always been a dream of mine to run a bed and breakfast the old fashion way, by inviting guests into our home in this beautiful paradise. By offering the «at home» atmosphere with intimate individual suites for privacy and breakfast served family style, we have blended the traditional with the contemporary.

We strive to keep our home warm and welcoming with architecture of natural woods and stone, sheets of cotton, pillows of feather, smiles of Aloha, a heart felt and deep appreciation for all of who come as guests and leave as friends. Each suite is similarly decorated with each having its own individual character either in design or the suites home on the Maui bed and breakfast property.

We strive to keep breakfast filling yet healthy while adhering to the confines of Maui County Codes. Upon our breakfast table, we offer hawaiian grown coffee, breads and fruit of Hawaii, as well as traditional continental fare.

Eva was so friendly and made us feel right at home. The room was set in a nicely landscaped yard. The bed was comfy and the bathroom was sweet. Everything was clean and tidy. Breakfast was the best and we will definitely be back.

This B&B is perfect if you’re looking for a more low key option in the South part of Maui! It’s location is perfectly situated to see all the amazing beaches in the area and makes for a perfect hub to go snorkeling and diving. Eva and Jim were very kind hosts! The room was very spacious, albeit a bit dark, but otherwise very lovely. The breakfast patio was a wonderful space to eat and plan our days.

Don’t hesitate to stay here. Very lovely, very clean and a feeling of home-​away-​from-​home — except someone else gets breakfast together for you and helps you plan your day! Eva was a wonderful hostess, and was very helpful with ideas for me when my snorkeling trip was cancelled two days in a row.
I was a little nervous about traveling alone — but staying at this B&B was just the perfect antidote against that nervousness. I would definitely stay here with my boyfriend if/​when I return to Maui in the future — and I would even recommend it to my parents (which says a lot!).
It’s a wonderful place!

My husband and I stayed here for only one night on our honeymoon, and really regretted not staying here longer. Eva and Jim were great hosts who were truly hospitable and the space was beautiful. Even though we only stayed one night, Eva offered us to call her anytime to ask any questions about Maui, and they really do follow thru with all the little details that make you feel truly invited and taken care of in their space, like having q-​tips and cotton swabs on stock in the bathroom, or having beach towels you can use while you stay there. And breakfast with Eva was delightful and yummy. You can’t help but love staying with them!

This is an easy review for me! We stayed here 11years ago and when planning our trip back we knew where we were going to stay again! Eva has thought of everything you could possibly need for your vacation. Eva makes you feel very welcome. Rooms are all very spacious. The only downside was that Eva can no longer make the special French toast and waffles she did 11years ago because of some new government regulations! Already planning next trip back! This is the place where you should stay!

Love it. Love it. Love it. What a wonderful B&B! Rooms are tastefully decorated and clean. Breakfast is of the extended continental kind: fresh fruit, yoghurt, cereal, juice, bread, cold cuts/​cheese, eggs. The host, Eva, is wonderful, welcoming and full of helpful info. This was my 2nd stay; if I come back to Maui, this will be my 1st choice.

Eva is a delight. The Papaya room is spacious, clean and private. Private entrance and sliding glass door to both upper and lower lanai. Eva has local knowledge to share and aloha spirit to give. I highly recommend and will be returning for a longer stay next time! Much aloha!

What a wonderful B&B! We had a very private room in a quiet tropical setting. There was bottled Hawaiian waters and Maui Chips waiting for us upon arrival. The bed was comfortable and the room had everything that we needed, and more! We will definitely be back again.

This place is home away from home! It’s great, I highly recommend it! Our room had a spacious bathroom, kitchen, living room, & comfortable bedroom. There’s only four rooms so it’s great because it means there’s less noise. It’s in a great neighborhood & super close to the beach. Just an awesome place!

We stayed in the Guava suite for 4 nights, and we had a wonderful time. I loved coming back here after a long day exploring the island. It really felt like coming home
Room & Accommodations: Gorgeously decorated and laid out. The walk to the room is surrounded by planets, and it’s on the side of the house (so it’s nice and private). Wifi is included, laundry is included. You’re welcome to use their beach equipment and blankets. Breakfast is served every morning (croissants, toast, fruit, cereal, milk, donut holes). Eva, the host, is so helpful and will give you advice depending on what it is that you want to do on the island.
Location: The B&B is within reasonable driving distance from most major attractions/​locations on the island [airport (30 min), the town of Lahaina (40 min), to Haleakala Crater (1 – 1.5 hours), to the start of the road to Hana (30 min)). It’s about a half mile from the oceanfront. The town has grocery stores and many places to eat
Price: VERY reasonable & affordable!
Highly recommended that you stay here!

Had a really fantastic stay here with my husband! I booked the Mango room, which was a perfect vacation apartment with a full kitchen. I really love having a full kitchen in Maui because a) I love cooking and exploring local produce and b) going out can get expensive and the food scene here isn’t stellar. The apartment was well-​thought out and very comfortable, quiet, and relaxing. And much cuter than a tired old vacation rental!
Breakfast was fun on the gorgeous deck. We enjoyed hanging out with Eva and the other guests. (and two hilarious snoring dogs)
Don’t hesitate to book this stellar BnB!

I had a wonderful experience at this BnB. The room was spacious, beautifully decorated with tile throughout, and the bed was super comfortable. Breakfast was basic stuff, like fruit, cereal, yogurt, toast, eggs and sweets served on a large patio deck with an ocean view.
The host Eva & her husband are very friendly, and know all the ins and outs of the island. Got some great advice for where to find better less touristy beaches or locals only restaurants. Even though it was a short visit, I would 100% stay here again and recommend it for anyone who doesn’t want to stay at a hotel.

My family and I did a quick overnight and 1 day stay in Maui. We used Hotels Tonight to book this fantastic Bed and Breakfast! We picked it because of the Unilocal reviews. We cannot say enough how great this place is. The room has a perfect hawaiian bungalow feel and is comfortable and welcoming! We got in late at night and had signs waiting for us at the house to tell us where to go. We loved it. The next morning we had a great continental breakfast with a wonderful Host (the owner) who greeted us and chatted with us. We loved it! They even let us borrow beach towels, beach chairs, cooler, boogie board all for free! The owner even let us come back (even though we had already checked out) to take showers because she knew we had a late flight out and would be at the beach all day. We always make a lot of day trips to Hawaii and will definitely book here again next time we are in Maui! Loved the owner, the property (full of tropical trees and plants) and everything else about this place!

The name says it all!!! The moment you arrive in front of the house you know you picked the right place. Nothing but green plants everywhere to make you really feel like you’re in a different world. And the rooms! From the moment you walk in, you instantly feel at home! Everything provided inside, towels, shampoo, body wash, the most comfortable bed ever! This place really has it all. And for the breakfast part, fresh fruits cut right in front of you, pastries, fresh hot coffee and a beautiful beautiful balcony with ocean view. Makes it really hard to get up and leave. The host are unbelievably friendly and welcoming and most of all, genuine!!! We would stay here again in a heart beat!

This is THE place to stay if you’re looking for a place that’s relaxing, well run by the owners and well located for all the must see parts of Maui. The facility is in great shape. This has now become a regular destination for us!

My husband and I loved staying here. We stayed for 4 days, 3 nights in the pineapple suite. We are so happy we chose this bed and breakfast. It was like our home away from home. We enjoyed it so much, we forfeited one night in lahaina and instead we extended our stay an extra night in kihei.
The property is lovely, large, and peaceful. Serenity at its best.
The room was spacious, updated, AC, patio, and lovely furnishings. Large windows with great views of all the green landscaping! It also came with a parking space which was convenient. It was everything we needed.
Breakfast with Eva and her doggies was so nice in the mornings. Eva is so kind and very helpful with island activities and or suggestions, recommendations.
The balcony has quite the view, of course there is an ocean view :). Yes… coffee, happiness and ocean views. The breakfast is perfect before you head out for the day, you can be simple as cereal, fruit, toast, or play chef and make your self a breakfast sandwich/​panini.
We definitely recommend staying here. Cheers!

WOW! That is all I can say about the best bed and breakfast in all of Maui! Simply amazing time. My wife and I had a wonderful time. Eva was a fantastic, friendly hostess who took time to talk with us and really made us feel at home. We were both very impressed with the cleanliness of the entire house, great breakfast, and spirit of aloha here. Our room was immaculately clean, all modern fixtures, and a big comfy bed! We plan on coming back next year and were going directly to What a Wonderful World Bed and Breakfast!

We stayed here in July of 2013 in the pineapple room. We enjoyed it very much. The room had big wall to wall windows with a view of beautiful tropical gardens. We also felt that we had more privacy because we were at the edge of the courtyard.
Eva was an amazing host. She provided free sunscreen, bug repellent, and beach chairs, which saved us quite some money. There were also clean towels and laundry machine, which was very convenient. She also told us about not wearing nice shoes during one of our hikes so we bought some walmart shows bec the dirt would be too hard to get off our shoes. She also gave us great advice on where to go to snorkle, hike, or which cruise to take. We enjoyed hanging out with her in the morning, drinking our coffee, and sharing stories. I would definitely stay here again if I every come back to Maui.

Had an absolutely great stay here (5 nights) but the best part is I left with a new friend. Eva was so amazing and helpful. I traveled alone to Maui but she was so helpful. She even bailed me out of a difficult situation at a hotel on my last night in Maui. I have no doubt my trip would have been no where as wonderful as she made it! When I originally called her to make my reservation she did not take Discover which was the card I needed to use. She called her merchant services provided and had it turned on just for me. I was happy to pay the fee incurred because it because staying at this B & B saved me half the money I was going to pay to stay at a hotel. This is a great location and very quiet. Its literally up the street from the beach. Perfect!!!
Thank you Eva for everything!!! Miss you!
