Felt like home
We loved everything about this rental. The house was absolutely perfect for our family of 4. The location was ideal! Mamas beach is walking distance and was our favorite spot for playing, swimming, and snorkeling. The Kuau store had everything we needed at very good prices! I am so excited at the thought of coming back and for anyone else being able to experience this magical place. We are heading home with very full hearts. A Hui Hou Maui!

Cute Cottage on the Best Side of the Island
Menehune Cottage was warm, welcoming, comfortable and clean. The kitchen was well-appointed and had everything you could possibly want for preparing food and drink. Shower, fluffy towels, and comfy beds made us feel at home. Fans were provided and while we were there the evenings were lovely and cool; an AC was provided for the master bedroom, but only needed in late afternoons. The property is amazingly cozy, quiet and close to a couple of beaches. Lovely stay in a wonderful place!

Great Lcoation
The cottage is great: clean and comfortable,well-appointed and has everything you'd need. Best sleep I've had in awhile! Being able to walk to Mama's beach and snorkel during my lunch hour on this working vacation was wonderful. The Kuau store provided morning cappuccinos and breakfast and lunches. We rented an electric car at the airport and were able to drive everywhere we wanted for the week on just the original full charge. The fee from the car rental agency to return it uncharged is WAY below market rate for a tank of gas!

Back to Roots
The Menehune Cottage was the perfect "home" for the return to my boyhood home with my son and his wife. The nearby beach we could walk to was a bonus. Everyone enjoyed this vacation on the north shore of Maui no ka oi!
