We will definitely be back. This is such a special stay and completely private which we were hoping for. Carrie is an exceptional host. We could not have enjoyed our time more in this beautiful exceptional spot 10 out of 10
We have stayed at this location 7 times, and would visit every year if it were possible. There is no other place like it on Maui, and it's really hard to describe how relaxing and easy it is to be at this location. Highlights include the hot tub, the deer that walk by in the evenings, sunsets, and just peace and quiet. Our hosts are the best that we've ever had and will likely continue to be a part of our lives in the future. 11/10.
The most beautiful vacation rental property we've ever stayed at, anywhere on the islands or mainland. Carrie and her design team have put together a pool, spa, pool bar and outdoor lounging/eating area that beats 5 star hotels, all for her guests. And you can't beat the privacy. Carrie is on top of everything, super communicative, super responsive. Location is great too, just a few minutes above the heart of Wailea. If you're reading this review, stop now and book this before it's too late.
Our family of 4 stayed for a week and a half and I can’t say enough good things about our time there. The property is so much better than the photos can convey, it really is a little piece of paradise. We enjoyed the privacy of having the pool and outdoor kitchen/bar, the view of the ocean and Molokini, and the house itself had everything we needed and more. Truly a special place! Highly recommend staying here!!
We had the most wonderful stay at Auntie Kali’s cottage! From the moment we arrived, the space felt welcoming, spotless, and full of that peaceful island charm you can’t find anywhere else. The cottage was perfectly equipped for our family, with thoughtful touches throughout that made us feel right at home.The location was ideal—close to beautiful beaches, great food, and everything we needed, yet still quiet and private enough to truly relax. We loved starting our mornings with coffee while watching the stars disappear with the sunrise and ending our days listening to the ocean breeze.Auntie Kali was an incredible host: warm, responsive, and genuinely caring. Her recommendations helped us discover some amazing local spots we would have otherwise missed.We couldn’t have asked for a better place for our family to unwind and make memories. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!
Everything about the cottage is perfect, you won't even want to leave. The backyard is your private oasis and is perfect for kids. Everything was clean, well cared for, and a great host.
Could not have been better. Cottage is a little jewel. Carrie, the host,is an amazing, kind and helpful person, Highly recommend staying at the cottage.
First off, what an absolutely beautiful place. Carrie thought of everything, and the cottage was literally perfect for us and the kids. The pool was outstanding, as were the tradewinds off the ocean. OH! And the stars at night…WOW.The grill…the pool…the fire pit…all amazing. Plus, she set us up with the most relaxing Thai massages and with a snorkeling charter where we swam with sea turtles and a monk seal. We are absolutely coming back again next year!
This is our 3rd stay at Auntie Kali's and our previous 5-star experiences were exceeded! Great property and everything we needed for our week long stay. Our favorite place to be!

Warm Aloha , jim & Auntie Kali
Carrie is a great host! Auntie Kali's Cottage is a wonderful private area. Great place to grill and relax. This was our second time to stay and we look forward to returning again.
Auntie Carrie's cottage is as close to heaven on earth as you can find. We stayed with our best friends for eight amazing days. The cottage pictures look great online but don't do it proper justice.Carrie was wonderful and we were fortunate enough to get to know her a bit during our stay. Already planning on when we can get back...
This is our second trip back to Maui and our second time staying here. We absolutely love this place and can't say enough good things about the property. The accommodations are comfortable, and the views are outstanding. We find this to be the perfect location with easy access to all areas of the Island with a short drive.
We will definitely be back!
Mark & Deann
Carrie and her team were totally awesome. The property is lovely. Honestly, I don't think you could ask for more!

About the host
Hosted by Carrie Williams
Carrie Williams, later known as Auntie Kali, is a registered nurse who began a journey in 2004 to pursue a second dream in life. Born and raised by loving parents in Downy, California, Carrie later moved to Huntington Beach, where at the young age of 22 began her nursing career of 33 years, at Hoag Memorial Hospital.
Her first dream was to be married and have a family, but for reasons that will never be known, she lost her husband to a massive heart attack, at the young age of 46. With her faith, time, and support of family and friends she has been able to see her dream come true by opening Auntie Kali’s Cottage, September of 2013.
If you’re wondering where the name Auntie Kali came from, it’s Carrie’s Hawaiian name. Although she has no children of her own, she has always been Auntie to all of her friends and family and loves kids. She enjoys entertaining and hopes to share hers and many others' labor of love with those who choose to come visit her, somewhere over the rainbow at Auntie Kali’s Cottage.
