Relaxing Stay at Lovely Beach House

This home was an ideal setting for four adults to visit a new grandchild who lives on Maui while enjoying Mama’s beach, accessible by a short walk, and the close proximity to Hookipa, Paia and Makawao. The lanai is beautifully furnished and very private, a perfect place to relax. Our host was very responsive to the few questions we had. We highly recommend this property.

Local Love

While the house, location and property were all fantastic the best part of our stay was our interactions with the property manager and on-site manager. Both of these individuals were incredibly helpful and communicative. The on-site manager is a lovely individual and she helped our family navigate a more intimate and personal experience with the Island.

Perfect Location and Property

Property was perfect for our family and I. Located not to far from the airport and the local businesses in Kahului made it very convenient. At the same time the drive to Hana was much shorter since we were already in the Paia town area. Property had everything we needed and the property manager was very attentive. Would definitely recommend this property to any family looking to really experience the Hawaiian lifestyle! Mama's fish house a definite plus... a must visit while staying here.

Great stay and location

The house was perfect for our first time visiting Maui. Very comfortable for relaxing after a day of sightseeing and the beach. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Plenty of TP, shampoo, laundry soap, towels, snorkel gear, beach chairs and supplies. Beds were comfortable and the separate bedroom suite was perfect for two couples. The AC and ceiling fans were very nice. The barbecue grill was nice. We had an issue upon arrival and Kelly and Leah took care of it promptly which we were so grateful for! Close to the airport and never heard a plane fly over once since they take off miles down the road. Quiet neighborhood. The local Cafe Des Amis was delicious. The Tavares Beach was close by and had many turtles that we stopped by to watch from a distance. We would definitely recommend Hale Nanea!

Paia rental

We have vacationed on Maui several times, usually staying around Ka'anapali or Wailea, as we love being on the beach. We started driving around to see more of Maui and fell in love with the Paia area. We vacationed with our daughter and her family on Maui 14 years ago and they hadn't been back since, so we decided to bring them with us this time. As we loved the Paia area, but had only had day trips there, we decided to book this Paia rental. It is a great place in a nice area...steps away from Mama's Fish House and Mama's beach. Paia is a very short drive away with more great dining! It was equipped with all the beach essentials: towels, chairs, umbrella, and snorkel gear. All the bedrooms had nice air conditioners and beds. The area is a great place for sea turtle viewing and watching great surfing. I would have given our stay five stars, but there was a problem when we first got to the rental. It took a few days to locate and fix it and Kelly and her staff worked diligently to get it fixed, but it still detracted from our stay. That being said, I would still book it again for a rental, as we loved our remaining days there.

Living the Maui Life

Loved our little Hawaiian house and living like a local in Kuau/Paia. Home is a nice combo of traditional Hawaiian but updated where it counts, AC worked well when we needed it but I loved the louvered glass windows to allow in all the cool trade breezes. The entire home is nicely decorated with all things Hawaiian in a chic and understated way. Landscaping was lovely and the daybed on the lanai saw several naps! The Kitchen was well stocked, great coffee in the morning and even doing laundry which is outside as is norm in Hawaii, still felt like a vacation. So nice to go home with clean clothes in your suitcase! Property is in quiet little neighborhood just east of Paia and at the start of the Road to Hana. You can see roof of Mama's Fish House from the yard, so close but yet so far if you didn't book lunch or dinner 6 months in advance. But not to worry there is so much good food in Paia and in the various food truck parks. Cute shops too and it just felt more island authentic than Kihei/Wailea area. Home was a great base to make treks up to Haleakala, down to Hana or exploring in Haiku/Makawao. This trip we did sunset at Haleakala which I liked better than the sunrise. Take the beach chairs from the house, some drinks and snacks and you have a comfortable wait for the sunset. We also appreciated all the beach towels and snorkeling equipment. Mama's beach is a short stroll and must see for sunset. Local manager was a pleasure to work with and checked in with us when needed.

The perfect house

My family and I are not the type to go go go. It was nice to have such a lovely environment to come back to after we ventered out each day. On days when we were tired, we hung around the beautiful house, read one of the many books from their library or went to one of the nearby beaches 2-5 min from the house and watched the turtles or surfers and windsurfers. Eating out is very expensive in Maui so having a kitchen that we could stock and cook in was another definite plus. The house is fully stocked. They have shampoo, cond, hair drier, lotion, reef safe sunscreen, pots, pans, plates, silverware, tupperware, lots of towels, snorkeling gear, beach chairs. There is a washer and drier with detergent. I didn't need to bring anything and wished I had left a lot of stuff at home. There was a separate bedroom and bath for our teenager so he felt like he had some space. The property is beautifully landscaped with great family areas for hanging out and many private spots for when you want some time alone. We walked to Mamas Fish House for dinner. Get reservations! I suggest getting dramamine. It helps with car sickness along Hana highway, sea sickness if you go snorkeling and it helps a little with altitude sickness when visiting the volcano. The pharmacist said it should also help a little with allergies which was my experience as well. We really had a perfect stay and our time at this house was a big part of that.

Super sweet spot, The house is well cared for and nicely decorated. You can tell the owners use the property. Kitchen has everything you would need. Plenty of beach and snorkel stuff. Bad cell reception, but walk to the front of Mama's Resort Lobby and bingo, phone works! Very short walk to Mama's Beach that has turtles! Skip Mama's restaurant, so many other great options--Do go to the Farm to Table dinner at Maui Bee's-very fun and excellent food. Would we stay there again? In a heartbeat!

Awesome house!

This house is great for family or a group of friends. It’s within a stone throw away from Mama’s Beach which is like your own private beach at times not to mention an amazing restaurant . The town of Paia is lesser known but cute with shopping and great food and people. The house fit all our needs and then some!

Feel like a local in Paia

This place is the epitome of a Maui hana (home)! Nestled in a tiny cul de sac just behind Mama's beach and the famous fish house, it's an easy walk to the beach cove and not far from the more swimmable and accessible Baldwin Beach. We loved our stay here and even snagged a walk up spot at the bar for a fabulous dinner at Mama's. (note- we tried for table reservations months in advance with no luck. checked in at 5:30pm on a Saturday and got lucky for bar seats). They have all you need for some beach exploring- chairs, umbrellas and even snorkel gear to hit the nearby beaches. We opted for Baldwin (10 min away given Paia traffic) and enjoyed the closer Ho'okipa beach for some fun watching the surfers and seeing a ton of turtles. If you're planning to hit the Road to Hana or catch the sunrise to Haleakala it's a great basecamp. And if you want to stay in a few nights, they have everything you need for making meals. We were a party of 2 so we had plenty of room. 2 couples or a small family would enjoy the space and not be too crowded.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house is adorable and really well stocked with towels, kitchen items and even snorkel gear! Very close to the best turtle beach on the island! Showers are good and the hot water lasts a long time. Very nice and cozy areas in the home to relax inside and out. Close to very cute artsy shops and restaurants. Only minor flaw was Wifi could have been a little better. Overall fantastic!

Great house, clean and comfortable

Loved the area with walking distance to a beautiful cove with crystal clear water, we even saw tons of sea turtles!! House was clean, beds were comfortable and there was everything available to head to the beach. My only one thing that needs improvement is the wi-fi we had a terrible time connecting to watch tv or get on our phones.
