Family-friendly holiday rentals in Haiku-Pauwela

Couldn’t have picked a more perfect place to stay for a few days on Maui - the space itself is incredible, feels very luxurious and has an amazing view. The location is just as amazing, just a few steps from the best beach I’ve ever been to. Can’t wait to stay here again!!

Beautiful space- views and ocean front sounds of crashing waves were amazing. And so much sea turtle activity. Never stayed in a place with such a well stocked kitchen with pans and cooking implements. First rate. Very quiet area and a larger beach for swimming is a couple blocks walk away.

First and foremost was the excellent, prompt communication with the host. Kyra always responded to any questions, and offered suggestions that encouraged us to explore the beautiful island. The condo itself has everything one would expect, from a very comfortable bed, to a fully equipped kitchen, BBQ's cleaned daily in the beautifully maintained grounds, and a short walk to the beach. Also, with a security guard present, one feels very safe. Definitely recommend!

This condo was a gem in Maui! We loved how close it was to the Wailea shops and restaurants, but also great beaches (5 minute drive or 15 minute walk) and had a ton of beach gear provided. The pool was very close to the unit as well which is great with young kids and parking spot is right out front of the first floor unit. Spotless condo and awesome stay all around!

We came here for our 20th anniversary. The views and beach are unparalleled. It is a more private setting and not walkable to downtown Kihei. This was perfect for us because we just wanted a chill place to be. It is still very accessible to the entire island and Kihei is really easy to get to. We will absolutely stay here again when we come back to Maui!

Wonderful Airbnb! Katie was very responsive, helpful, and kind. It was a plus for us that this place had a washer dryer, because we didn’t want to check bags. Had beach towels, umbrellas, and boogie boards for us to use as well!

Being really sick in Maui is no fun. Being directly across from a beautiful beach was the saving grace! The home was very inviting and well-appointed. The extras, such as beach chairs, was very helpful. Having an in-place washer and dryer was very nice. While we didn't see much of Maui (thankfully, this wasnt our first trip), having a comfortable to rest was very welcomed. Great hosts; highly recommend a stay here.

Louis's place exceeded our expectations in every way. His communication ensured a hassle-free check-in. The area was impeccably maintained. The ocean views from the balcony were breathtaking. We will definitely return.

Beautiful place and area. Right on the beach, which was amazing. Lots of towels, no need to bring your own shampoo, etc. as those are provided. Well stocked kitchen too. Beach chairs, etc. were also provided. Great trip! We will be back!

The stay was special to say the least. It was private and the walkable beach was quiet and beautiful. The town of Kihei has everything you need with close stores, restaurants, gas stations and snorkel rental. The house was perfect for our family with a space our child could sleep free of noise from the rest of the house while we were awake so we could enjoy the ocean from the porch and the jacuzzi tub. Would definitely stay again while on Maui!

Has an awesome view with a relatively short walk to the beach. (We actually saw sea turtles there!!) The location was not far from wherever we wanted to go. The beds were comfy (a big plus for us after multiple back surgeries), as was the sectional sofa. Plenty of room for us to hang out. The kitchen was well stocked and having a washer/dryer available was extremely helpful. I may have missed this in the posting, but the first floor is a separate rentable area than the second floor. Luckily no one was in the first floor so we basically had the place to ourselves. We'd definitely stay again and had a wonderful time!!!

Our ohana had the best time at Pookela Paradise. Mark was extremely helpful and so much aloha. Our family was well accommodated and was so nice to have a place for us to stay in Makawao. Mahalo again Mark! We will definitely be back

Robert was amazing to deal with! Great communicator, very accommodating of the guest, and seemed very genuine. The Westin at Kaanapali speaks for itself! It has everything…pools, great location, awesome beach front ! Had a great ocean view! And view of the pools! The room was very spacious. It was just two of us but we could have had two more people on the sofa bed easily. Small kitchen with full fridge and ice maker allowed for in room meal accommodations and cold refreshments. Spacious bathroom . It was five star plus! We had a hard time leaving… it was perfect and there is always so much to do in Hawaii.

Beautiful condo, had everything we needed. Well stocked kitchen, condo was clean and comfortable. Air conditioning unit in living room and bedroom kept us cool and comfortable. Great location with park and beach right across the street and walking distance to lots of restaurants and shops. I'll definitely be coming back.

Great location. Had a minor issue, but Lisa was on top of it . Making sure we were enjoying our trip. Would recommend to anyone visiting Maui! Mahalo!

Phenomenal host!! The best experience I’ve had renting a home! John was so kind, welcoming, and made our family feel right at home! He’s also a musician with some fabulous instruments available to play! The location is breathtaking! The hot tub and sauna were a huge hit with everyone! There is a fully stocked home with books and puzzles throughout the house! Also the beach gear was so helpful and made it’s so enjoyable for my little one! The home had wonderful finishes throughout and relaxing tub and showers! Hands down best way to experience Hāna!! Thank you John you were an amazing host thank you for all of your hospitality!!

My family and I had a wonderful stay! It was exactly as described. The beds were super comfortable. Loved having beach items like boogie boards, chairs and an umbrella! The view was amazing and I enjoyed having coffee on the lanai every morning. I was able to spot at least one sea turtle every day too! The location was great if you are looking for a more quiet area. It was also great as a springboard for activities all over the island. Thank you!

The cottage is really beautiful, in a good condition and equipped with everything you need. It is located in a quiet and nice surrounding. You can reach a beautiful beach within approx. 10 minutes walking distance, calm and inviting to snorkel a bit. Therefore the accommodation also offers some beach gear like chairs, towels and umbrella. Doug & Diana were very lovely hosts, always good to reach and very helpful.

Our stay was wonderful. The accommodations were very comfortable and clean. The ocean view was beautiful and we enjoyed looking out over the water every night. I’d definitely stay here again!

The place is amazing, centrally located. View is top notch, we saw turtles from our balcony almost everyday. Leslie was extremely responsive and accommodating.

Our stay in Kihei was lovely. We enjoyed walking the quiet beach each morning and getting into town was easy from the Airbnb. We did not have any issues with parking on site despite a very late (overnight) arrival. It was a quick trip down from the airport as well.

My wife and I had a great time at Todd’s place. The location is great, lots of food trucks and coffee shops steps away from the condo. There is a friendly surf spot just in front of the condo. The condo is very well equipped with brand new appliances. I totally recommend this place!

Wonderful stay! Great location, quiet with ocean views, and a lovely breeze that really does mean no A/C necessary. Jennifer was super responsive and the place was perfect for us.

The condo was perfect for the last part of our vacation. The beach was beautiful and we got the chance to swim a bunch and see some turtles!! It was so nice to have a full kitchen and be able to cook a little. Great location easy to find and Craig was incredibly helpful the whole time!! I would absolutely stay here again!!
