PLEASE READ PRIOR TO BOOKING: If you have more than 10 guests the cottage will need to be booked as Maui's rental permit law requires 2 guests per room. That includes children over the age of 2 years old. Children under the age of 2 can stay with their parents in the same room and not count toward the occupancy rate. As the main house only has 5 rooms, it can only sleep 10 guests. To rent the cottage adds an extra $250 per night and has a $200 cleaning fee. If you do instant booking, the cottage will not be automatically booked, but it will be added through a payment request should your party be over 10 guests.

Also, please ask us about our payment options if you would like to pay over 2 or 3 installments.

1505 Halama Street also known as HOALOHA HALE (translated 'Friends House') is a legally permitted (STKM 2017/0005) home located across the street from the beach in beautiful Kihei Maui. This traditional Hawaiian home features a 5 bedrooms / 3 bath main house and a separate studio cottage with its own bathroom and kitchen (making for a 6 bed / 4 bath combination if desired). Both the home and cottage have large lanai areas for lounging, BBQing, and relaxing during the warm and tropical evenings. Enjoy the beautiful tropical climate outside, and still remain comfortable inside with air conditioning throughout the home and cottage.

This main house is perfect for families that want to have enough bedrooms and space to enjoy their time together. The upstairs portion of the main house has soaring ceilings and a loft game area for kids. The open floor plan on the second floor is perfect for relaxing together with family, cooking a nice meal, and enjoying indoor outdoor living. Move freely from the living room and kitchen area onto an expansive wrap around Lanai.

The first floor is also very nice, with two bedrooms its own living room area, and an outdoor rear patio. Both the upstairs living area and downstairs living areas are very comfortable and have large flat screen TVs.

The cottage is perfect for someone in the family that may need a little more privacy and space. The cottage also has soaring ceilings and is configured as a large open studio with a gourmet kitchen, TV, air conditioning, full bath, walk in closet, and separate lanai.

HOALOHA HALE is situated in a beautiful neighborhood with multi-million dollar homes. The street is safe, has hardly any traffic, and is right across the street from a beautiful beach. Two blocks to the west you'll enjoy a large park with tennis courts, baseball & soccer fields, outdoor roller rink, running tracks along the ocean, and more beautiful beaches. Downtown Kihei is also within walking distance. There you will enjoy shopping, dining, and all the local flare this beach town has to offer.

Here are just some of the attractions, restaurants, and everyday living features you will have access to when you stay at HOALOHA HALE.

GOLF
If you've come to maui to enjoy Golf, you've come to the right part of the island. Just a mile from the house is the Maui Nui Golf Club and less the 5 miles from the house are the Wailea Gold Course, Emerald Golf Course, and Wailea Blue Golf Course (each of which are fantastic and have amazing views of the ocean and surrounding countryside). I personally like golfing on the Kihei/Wailea side of the island, becuase the wind in far less severe than the Kaanapali/Kapalua side of the island.

RESTAURANTS
Less than a five minute walk from the house is Pizza Madness Maui, which offers a 4+ star pizza and sandwiches. Other food options that are less than a mile away are Coconut's Fish Cafe, Nalu's South Shore Grill, Fabiani's Bakery, Eskimo Candy, Outback Steak House, Ekolu Kitchen, Starbucks, Paia Fish Market S. Side, Kihei Cafe, South Maui Fish Co., Outrigger Pizza, Maui Brewing Company, etc., (AND THAT'S WITHIN THE FIRST MILE). Within a five-six mile radius you get into other amazing places, like the fabulous Restaurant at the Hotel Wailea (one of the best high-end restaurants on the island!!), Monkeypod Kitchen by Merriman's, The Five Palms, Sorento's on the Beach, Ka Ana Kitchen, the list goes on and on. Bottom line, you will not go hungry staying at our house and there is a lot to choose from (both familiar and with local flare).

ACTIVITIES AND ATTRACTIONS
The house is near a ton of great tours and attractions. Some of the best snorkeling companies run right in Kihei, less than 5-10 minutes from the house. For bigger boating experiences (i.e. dinner/sunset cruises, fishing charters, Molokini Excursions, etc.) the Maalaea Harbor is only 8 miles from the house. Maui Dive shop is a five minute walk. Canoe, Kayak, surfboard rentals less than mile from the house. Kalama State park which has soccer fields, baseball diamonds, tennis courts, and running paths along the beach is only a few blocks from the house. Day trips to other parts of the island are also super easy and convenient as the house is only a few miles from the major thoroughfares that will take you to Hana, Paia, Makawao and other communities that are all unique and fun to visit.

SHOPPING
Check out all the great shops in the Kalama Village and Kihei Town center less than mile away. Also drive down to the great shops in downtown Wailea about 5 minutes away.

BEACHES
Some of the best beaches on the island, from Halama beach right across the street from the house, to all the Kamaole beaches that line S. Kihei Rd. Drive a short 5 miles toward Wailea and experience some of the great beaches that the large resorts have to offer (all are open to the public). Drive a little further (approximately 9 miles) and you'll reach Makena State Park with the beautiful Makena Beach, Makena Cove, and Little beach (clothing optional).

So much to enjoy, you'll never have a dull time visiting this magical place!!

    The house was perfect for my mother’s 80th birthday trip - we had our 3 adult boys, one girlfriend, a wife and an infant as well as a cousin so there were 10 total (including the baby) it was awesome that they gave an option for some of the king beds to be split into two twins. It was very comfortable and more than enough room for all of us. Everything in the house worked just as described with no issues. You can walk to a local little beach across the street but it was a bit rocky in the water but was a beautiful sunset walk on the sand! Everywhere we ate was fantastic - even the little pizza place down the road. Chris was an excellent host - if we had any questions, he quickly responded and before our stay, recommended a photographer for family pics, a link to rent the baby items we needed and some restaurants for my mom’s birthday dinner! Would definitely stay there again!

    This was the perfect place to stay for our family! There were 12 of us - 9 adults and three children so we also used the guest house. It is a beautiful home with many places to gather together. The kitchen is well stocked with everything one would need to cook. Everything was clean and comfortable. Chris, our host, was very attentive and quick to communicate at any time. He gave us a lot of tips about the area - where to eat and things to do. A terrific host! The location is also perfect - just a few minutes walk from the beach and in a great neighborhood near a park. Grocery stores, restaurants, and scuba/snorkel rental nearby. We would definitely stay again!

    We had a wonderful stay at this property. The house was clean and well maintained and is about a 2 minute walk to the beach. We walked down there every evening after dinner so the kids could see the sea turtles. The property manager Chris was exceptional and made sure we were taken care of and even let us check in early. We made some wonderful memories there and would stay there again in the future.

    This house was perfect for our group. Given our side trips to West Maui, Hana, Kanaha and Haleakala, this location worked well for us. It was also close enough to walk to a few restaurants and many others were a short drive away. The beach was a 3 minute walk. All the bedrooms were well appointed with comfortable beds. We also liked the spaciousness of the kitchen. Although there is no ocean view, relaxing on the large upper deck was a highlight. Chris was very accommodating and also proactive in checking in with us to ensure everything was going well.All in all, it was a great experience with no problems or issues with the house.

    Amazing house. Perfect for our extended family vacation. Enough room for all of us to spread out but also able to gather together for meals and games. Close to a beach for beautiful sunsets and walking in the morning. The kids liked playing in the sand and the waves. Great neighborhood on quiet non-busy road.

    Fantastic accommodations. Our children and their significant others joined us for a fabulous time in Maui. This included nine adults who all agreed that this was a perfect' house. It was wonderful to sit out on the upstairs deck feeling the Maui breeze and sun. We have stayed in Maui before but this location was more central to all the sites and activities that we wanted to enjoy. Several evenings were spent on the nearby beach (a quick block away to beach access), enjoying the sunset. Chris was extremely responsive to any questions or needs. Great time had by all!

    This was a fantastic experience from initial inquiry to post checkout. Chris was very responsive and communicative throughout the whole time answering any questions or responding to any requests I had.The property itself was exactly as represented in the photos. Very clean, lots of amenities and very spacious. It was the perfect place for our family of 12. We rented the casita as well which was great for my wife and I with our 1.5yr old son so he could go to sleep earlier and away from the common (more noisy) areas in the main house. It was also still within range for our baby monitor. The walk to the beach from the house was literally about 1 minute. Enjoyed watching the sunsets almost every night. Just all around a great location and property. Would absolutely stay here again if we visit Maui again. Thank you Chris!!

    This is our second visit to Maui and our 2nd stay at this property. Chris Muane was an exceptional host, taking care that all our needs were met. The main house and cottage perfectly accommodated us, our kids and grandkids. The location was right in the middle of the island making day trips easily accessible everywhere we went. We had the best time at the local beach right across the street, swimming and catching site of many turtles passing by. Even encountered a few turtles still sleeping on the beach in the early morning hours. The memories that we’ve built over the years here are priceless. We highly recommend this property for all ages and groups. It truly is a home away from home.

    Hoaloha Hale was perfect for our family trip to Maui. The house had absolutely everything we needed and more. The most well stocked kitchen of any VBRO I’ve ever rented. The house is so spacious, 9 adults and no one ever felt crowded. The multiple living areas and huge deck were amazing. It was great having everything we needed for any kind of day we decided to have. Chris was so communicative and was spot on with all of his suggestions. We hope to be back someday and would definitely look up Hoaloha Hale first.

    The accommodations were outstanding. My entire family came over with kids and grandparents age 10 to 86 and everyone had a place. My parents stayed in the Ohana, which was absolutely fantastic. The rest of the house had enough king size beds for myself and my daughters and their husbands. The kids split amongst the two other bedrooms. The game set up upstairs couldn’t have been better. The kitchen function so well. Our favorite spot was evening dinners out on the deck. Highly highly recommend it. And Chris(the owner) was so attentive and responsive when a couple of little situations came up. Thank you for the aloha spirit

    Finding this property that accommodated multiple family members was a gem. The dual-level bedroom layout and the additional cottage for young couples offered both privacy and togetherness—a perfect combination for family gatherings. A well-stocked kitchen and large gathering space is indeed a boon, making group meals and celebrations seamless. Staying within walking distance to local amenities and enjoying breathtaking sunsets each evening was delightful. Witnessing over 13 sea turtles coming ashore at dusk was a rare and special experience. Chris was fantastic to work with, answering any questions promptly, providing area restaurant suggestions, activity ideas and checking in with us after our arrival to make sure everything was to our liking. Many great memories were made on our trip! Thank you Chris

    Over the years, I have stayed at numerous shared rental properties. I cannot recommend this one enough. I stayed at Chris’ property for my wedding week in Maui. I had planned a family elopement — for everyone to stay at the house together, to get married at the beautiful (and convenient beach across the street), and to have a chef cook dinner after the ceremony at the house. So, the house and location were of utmost importance for my purposes. First, the house and property were exactly as described, clean, and had everything a family would need for a week the beach. This includes a big patio to grill on, various beach accessories (kiddie toys, chairs, flippers, cooler), a large kitchen with everything you’d need to cook and store food, and a literal three minute walk to a quiet beach where it’s mostly locals. Second, Chris was instrumental to helping me put together the various pieces of this trip, including sending me information on where my brother could rent baby equipment for his newborn, permitting for the wedding, and being flexible about having a chef cook at the house. Chris personally texted and called me to check in about how we were settling in, and was incredibly responsive in the months between booking and check-in. If you are hesitating about booking, don’t! Thank you to the hosts for helping me bring my vision to life.

The home was large enough to accommodate our family....to provide even more privacy we also rented the Cottage which allowed 3 married couples, 2 adult grandson's to have their own rooms and our 2 teen granddaughter's to share a room. The house and cottage together had 3 washers and dryers, multiple big screen TVs and an electronic game room with 2 large screen displays....the house had everything you needed included all the dishes and utensils pots and pans and a crock pot, coffee pot, rice pot, etc....it even had a George Forman grill.The air conditioning system throughout both buildings was also appreciated during the warmer days.Location was great with beaches, restaurants, activities, grocery stores. all conveniently located and some within walking distance....A great time was had by all
