  There should be no question that this is the real Hawai'i, the paradise so often spoken of. It is a place for those who want privacy, beauty, reverence, nature, and realness. You are surrounded by hard working Hawai'ians managing their farms, selling their produce, keeping up their shops, raising their families, fishing for their livlihood. Hana Oceanfront Cottages is exactly that. It is a beautifully decorated compact cottage - everything you need, tastefully appointed, and very personal. You will feel that you are in a plantation home. The beach is just off the front porch and across the lane. There were hours where we were the only ones on the beaches in this area. Walks will take you to secluded waterfall pools where you swim next to the ocean. Or you may walk through the coconut groves or banana fields, or into town. You will have your soul restored. Extraordinary.

  The Cottage at Hana by the Sea is a dream come true. The location, the atmosphere, and the hosts, Sandi and Dan are exquisite. The rooms are beautifully appointed and immaculate. There is a well-equipped kitchen, so we brought our own groceries and cooked almost all of our meals which we enjoyed on the spacious deck, looking out at the ocean. Hamoa Beach is not even a 2-minute walk from the cottage. Beach gear and beach towels are provided, and there is an outdoor shower as well. Sandi and Dan are wonderful hosts. They gave us great advice about lovely places in the area to visit, local restaurants, and different activities to do. One afternoon, Sandi handed us a warm loaf of home made bread! Another time, Dan appeared with a bunch of fresh bananas grown right there in the garden. Ours was an unforgettable experience, the best way to visit Maui. We can't recommend it highly enough.

  We just returned from our third stay at the "Cottage". Our hosts, Dan and Sandi, are friendly and welcoming making sure that the place is in tip top condition inside and out. The first time we went we stayed for 3 nights thinking we might run out of things to do in Hana. Our second and third stays have been for a week. We just go grocery shopping before we head to Hana and then pick up a few things at the roadside stands or the general store (an experience in itself). The cottage is perfectly clean and beautifully decorated, the gardens are gorgeous, and of course the views out the windows and from the front porch are to die for. We did some hiking, some boogie boarding, some beach time, and lots of just relaxing. Hana gets some rain, some times a lot of rain, so some relaxing should be on the list of things to do. We have explored quite a bit of the area around Hana and our opinion is that Hana Oceanfront Cottages has no equal. We are grateful that Dan and Sandi graciously share their bit of paradise

  I don't even know where to begin! I've been to Hana twice now and it is just an incredible place. So amazing and just truly paradise. When i was in the process of looking for a place to stay, i was very picky and wanted somewhere incredibly romantic to my wife as it was our honeymoon and i wasn't really in the mindset of just settling on any location. I was looking a little late in the game for a great place to stay on our visit and a lot of the other places i looked had filled up but then i stumbled onto Dan and Sandi's property through an agent who had recommended them and i've got to tell you, i could NOT be any happier that we found them. We stayed in the Beach Cottage right off the road and it was the best decision i think we could have made for our visit. You can look right out the front window and see the highly rated Hamoa Beach waves crashing on the shore. There is a gorgeous mountain range in the same line of sight as well and if you're a fan of incredible sunsets, this is your place. Not only was the view incredible, but Dan and Sandi are very thorough in their cleaning of the cottage. We arrived early in the day and they were cleaning from a previous guest and they let us drop our bags and continue exploring, which we thought was really cool of them to do because we didn't want to leave all of our valuables in the car and hike, etc, so that was an awesome gesture. We came back 3 hours later and they were still cleaning! The place was incredible. I would have eaten off of the floor :) The price initially threw me off because i felt it was a little on the high side but im telling you if you want a little piece of paradise in an immaculate cottage, it won't even phase you once you're in there. If you don't know, bring your own food when you come to Hana. There really isn't a good selection but Dan and Sandi have just about every amenity i could have asked for so bring food to cook and have a blast at this amazing cottage! Best property in Hana, hands down!

  What a beautiful piece of true Paradise! I wasn't expecting such a gem when I arrived at Hana Oceanfront Cottages. The suite was beautifully appointed, spacious & what a view! The property is immaculate & full of photo opportunities if you are a shutter bug like me. Dan made sure to show me where to find all of the extras for beach & outdoor plans although I was content just grabbing my towel & camera for a very short walk across the street & down the stairs to the most beautiful beach. Everything you would need was at your fingertips. Sitting on the lanai watching the sun go down was so peacefull. I only wish I had spent more time enjoying the treasure I discovered here. While this was my second trip to Hana, it was my first time at Hana Oceanfront Cottages but will NOT be my last. I look forward to my next visit & will make sure it is longer so I can enjoy it fully. Mahalo Sandi & Dan for sharing your hidden treasure! Deb R Anchorage, AK

  Never having been to Maui, I was really nervous making the drive on the long and windy Hana Highway past other "vacation rental" signs. Little did we know, this drive would be our biggest blessing. Once we arrived at te Hamoa Oceanfront Cottages and met Dan and Sandi we didn't want to leave. Hana is the perfect place to spend time away from the fast-paced modern world. Yes, there is high speed Internet and cable TV, but we opted out and tried to meet as many locals as we could. It didn't take long. We ran into the same people throughout our time there and everyone was very friendly. Try the clay wood-fired pizza while watching a retro movie projected on a bed sheet at Hana Farms and take your leftovers home wrapped in a banana leaf. Paddle board or just laze around at beautiful Hamoa Beach. At times we had it all to ourselves! We spent every morning on the lanai with coffee and every eveningi with a glass of wine admiring Dan's meticulous tropical landscaping. The grounds and suite are immaculate. Sandi's great tour guide binders tell you all about great hikes closeby, including the red and black sand beaches. Dont expect a McDonalds or a Starbucks here--the Hasegawa General Store has everything you need. The Hamoa Beach Cotages are THE BEST place to stay on Maui for a relaxing and romantic getaway. P.S. - We got engaged on the most beautiful secret beach in the world!

  We stayed in the cottage for 3 night and felt like we were in paradise! Probably the best place to stay in Hana. The porch is perfect for watching the surfers and hearing the sweet sounds of the ocean. The cottage is well stocked with all sorts of kitchen appliances and such. It truely does feel like a home away from home. We highly recommend staying a few nights in Hana and to stay in the cottage!

  We just spent a wonderful week in Hana. The cottage and property were even better than advertised. The entire place was beautifully maintained. Hamoa beach was gorgeous. The short walk to the beach was lovely. I can't decide if I preferred the empty beach at sunrise or the beach with paddle boarding locals at sunset. The cottage had everything you could wish for. Dan and Sandi were so helpful with advice about local attractions and hikes. Sandi will warn you that there is limited access to fresh fish, chicken, meat, fruit and vegetables in Hana. Remember to bring provisions with you. The cottage has all the cooking implements you could dream of and the outdoor gas barbecue under the tiki torches was wonderful. There are plenty of activities during the day in Hana. Hiking, snorkeling and kayaking were great. There is no night life to speak of so plan to bring plenty of books and relax in your lovely cottage getaway. This is definitely the best place to stay in Hana. Hopefully we will have the opportunity to return soon.

  Beautiful ocean views, wonderful hosts, so much to do! We just returned from our vacation to Hana, Maui on Saturday. Sandi is so knowledgeable about the area and advised us "what not to miss". We have never stayed anywhere that was so clean! If you are going to the Hana area this is the place to stay!

  Seriously, believe all the 5 star reviews. Hana Oceanfront Cottages is a great spot. We stayed in the cottage for our honeymoon, and it was perfect. It's quite, peaceful, and rural. So, don't expect malls and tons of tourists. Hamoa Beach is fabulous and just a few steps away. Beach chairs, boogie boards, and other items are all ready to having you enjoying the surf and sand as soon as you arrive. Really top notch place to stay in Hana.
