Situated in Paia, this charming house for $850 per night is a great choice for your next break. Maui County Rental permit - STPH 2018/0003 (this is a legal, permitted Maui vacation rental) TA-066-523-9552-02 / GE-066-523-9552-02 TMK-260090240001 It's a Beach House! A place to relax, unwind, listen to the breeze through the palm trees, absorb the ocean views. Start with your morning coffee on the huge ocean view deck (perhaps in a rocking chair). Or take your cup, and walk a minute or two over to Kuau Beach. Sit on the sand, watch for turtles, and plan another day of exploring Maui. Paia town is just over a half mile down the road to the west, with a fabulous collection of restaurants, shops, and services. Mana Foods (Maui's best health food store) is in the middle of Paia town. Be sure to stop for pizza at Flat Bread, and enjoy fish tacos at the Fish Market. For that special dinner out, Mama's Fish House is a mile in the opposite direction. The north shore is a unique area. There are beaches scattered along the coastline - Kanaha Beach (great windsurfing), Spreckelsville Beach, Baldwin Beach with Baby Beach sitting on the west end of it, Paia Bay, Kuau Beach, and Hookipa. There are no large buildings, no large hotels, and no chain stores. If that's what you're looking for, you'll need to head to the south or west side. From the north shore, it's a quick drive to the upcountry area with a rural, farming environment. Moving further up the hill is Haleakala Crater, a "must see" while you're here. This area also puts you at the starting point for the day trip to Hana. Looking for excitement? In Maui, that usually means some extreme ocean action. Hookipa Beach is just a mile to the east. It's fun to sit on the beach and watch the surfers, windsurfers or kiters. Mid to late afternoon the sea turtles come out of the water to rest on the east end of Hookipa beach. Some afternoons we've counted more than sixty. Quite a sight! Searching for a special place for your time on Maui? Look no further. When you drive up to our Kuau Beach House, you'll see the aqua garage door and chuckle. Somehow it's so cheerful it just makes me smile! As you walk up to the entry door, you'll be looking straight through the house to a big ocean view (another reason to smile). Step into the house to discover a spacious great room, with a huge wall of sliding doors stretching across the entire space. These doors open to an overhung deck that runs the entire length of the house. The deck is set up for outdoor dining (teak table, gas BBQ), The best feature.... comfy rocking chairs and a huge overstuffed chair, all looking across to the ocean. Do you love to cook? The kitchen is set-up for you, with a Viking range, large side by side refrigerator, and enough cookware to create gourmet delights. Bedroom #1 faces the ocean (of course...), with sliding doors to the deck. It has king bed, and an ensuite bathroom. And the best feature.... fabulous outdoor shower just outside this master bath (of course there's an indoor shower also). Bedroom #2 sits to the back of the house. It has a king bed, and access from the bedroom to bathroom #2. Bedroom #3 is set on the upper level, surrounded by windows and a view to the ocean. This is a large room with a king bed and a twin bed. Bedroom #4 is for the couple seeking privacy. It's set to the side of the house with a sitting area, full bathroom on the main level, and a bedroom with queen bed and single bed on the upper level. Just outside the bathroom door - another outdoor shower. Want to play frisbee or volleyball (bring your own net and ball)? Kuau Beach House has a half acre of grass set below the house for you to enjoy. Lots of room to run around the play.
