Vacation rentals in Kailua

“We are just leaving Maui And very sad to go. The first couple nights we stayed on the west side of the island in Lahaina . We arrived at the Maui retreat (via Jeep :) and felt like we arrived in paradise. The west side was resort-ish with lots of people but this was exactly what we needed . William was a wonderful host . The place is beautiful . Exactly as pictured . We needed to disconnect, get away from stress , get married !! Kutira was amazing . We got married on the beach with turtles and she spoke to our souls . She is wonderful . We will forever remember her . The VIEWS alone are enough to recommend this place , I slept better then I have since I was a kid . Waking up to The sunrise over the ocean was amazing . It’s peaceful , quiet , beautiful . We went into town everyday ; it’s close to a lot of neat little towns but we loved coming home to the bamboo temple . We hiked, cooked looked at the stars . There is yoga available (we unfortunately missed ) . The outdoor shower is the best .. so much beauty and peace here . Will forever recommend and be grateful for our time here.”

“One of the best airbnb experiences we had. Although we already had high expectations, still the pictures/description don't do the reality justice. It's hard to describe but you are in a uniquely serene and mystic place removed from the touristic and noisy crowdedness of Maui, surrounded just by bamboo and palm trees, at night you can watch this magnificent sky of stars, and you fall asleep listening to the roaring sound of wind in the leaves. Sure, it takes a bit of a drive to get there but it's so worth it, in fact that makes it special, but if you do like accessibility then this is not the right place for you. I do highly recommend to follow Sharyn's advice to print out or take screenshots of the more detailed instructions she provides, since signal is poor out there but with those instructions it's impossible to miss when you first arrive, and after that it's straightforward. The garden is huge, and despite there being several cottages on the property you feel absolute privacy. Also the interior of the cottage is bigger than we were expecting, with lots of lovely touches waiting for you in each and every corner (we were particularly grateful for the fruit basket and some breakfast goodies Sharyn had prepared for us). I would come back in a heartbeat and then I'd stay for months, not days!”

“Maui Eco Retreat has been my one of my favorite places I’ve ever stayed. We were in the Indian room with 2 shared bathrooms and while I was a little worried about lacking privacy, that wasn’t the case at all. We had plenty of space from the other guests, though everyone we did encounter in the kitchen area and other common spaces were very nice, friendly, and willing to share food. I think the eco-minded focus of the retreat attracts likeminded individuals so I can see how it’d be easy to make friends here if traveling solo. We loved the trails to the Music Temple, lookout points, and the slightly treacherous Ocean trail. The kitchen has everything you need and more. I loved that we could actually recycle and compost again (we’re from Portland and can’t stand throwing away reusable stuff like plastic and cardboard). A rooster woke me up on our first morning there, which was surprisingly nice? It was amazing being off the grid, but still close to Paia Town, Haiku (loved those food carts!), Ho’okipa beach park, Mama’s Fish House, and a couple of key Road to Hana stops like Twin Falls and the Bamboo Forest. I only wish we had spent our entire stay in Maui here because there’s so much to see on the property alone as well as North Shore! Can’t wait to come back again and bring more friends :)”
