We loved staying here and would stay again. But its not for everyone. It's more rustic and laid back than your typical vrbo but we love places like that. John the owner is a really nice guy who offered us a very generous checkout time. A great place to chill.

Lovely and quiet
This is a lovely place with a gorgeous view. The screened lanai was particularly wonderful. It definitely isn't a place for people looking for tourist Maui, as it's out of the way (which, for us, was good). I rated "accuracy of online listing" with three stars because the listing seems to overclaim a bit about what's available (hot tub?). I'd also suggest making a few cooking basics available (salt, for example). Overall, we were very pleased.

Quaint cottage, nice quiet place for a couple to go and relax at. The fresh bananas were a wonderful surprise. John took care of anything we needed. We stayed a extra night and John put us up in the Bamboo House. Great place for a party of 6. We would stay here again if we ever get to return. Best housing prices around too. Thanks John

Lovely getaway
We had a very relaxing stay at this lovely Haiku property. Peaceful and relaxing. Enjoyed being away from the resorts but quick drive to Paia and Makwao and the beach. We liked staying in a neighborhood, petting the cats who came by to say "hi." Our kids loved staying in the screened in porch. We left our computers in the unit after check out and it was still where we left it a couple of days after we realized it was gone! Owner was very nice about our retrieving them. Only small drawback is that you must cook outside which is challenging at night and the apartment could use more lights. Small drawbacks and would stay there again!

We loved our time at John’s cottage! A quaint and quiet space beckoning the adventurous spirit. It’s a true local gem outfitted with everything you need for a great stay. John was very welcoming and provided us with helpful tips to explore the area and generous with offering beach chairs, boogie boards, etc. The screened in porch was a highlight. Lovely backyard and view. Close to Paia but far away from the crowds. We will be back!

An Exquisite Retreat Between Kahului and Hana
Our stay at John’s holiday home was unparalleled. Originally renting a different property, John graciously offered us an upgrade, at the same location, which we couldn’t resist, though our initial choice was equally appealing. The location is perfect, bridging Kahului and Hana, with pristine beaches and hiking trails nearby. Local amenities are close, and John's vast recommendations cover every need. His dedicated staff ensures a flawless stay when he's not available. The property "Mountain to Ocean Views Pole House" (or search for 4499814ha ) is a Hawaiian gem. The elegant wooden structure, accented with marine touches reflecting our sailing affinity, merges seamlessly into the landscape. The glass walls, far from compromising privacy, amplify natural light and bestow endless ocean views. By night, the sky is a spectacle. Every amenity, from the indoor-outdoor furniture to the well-outfitted kitchen, exudes comfort. The house's design embraces the sea breeze, negating the need for artificial cooling. While perfect for couples, our trio felt right at home, thanks to a thoughtful additional mattress. In essence, this isn’t just a property, but an enriching experience. We unreservedly recommend it. John's dedication, the inviting community, and the home's offerings eclipse even the most luxurious hotels.

Amazing view and ambiance!
This little hut is located in a jungle-like cozy part of the island, with views of the ocean as well! It's close enough to shops, restaurants and the beach but far enough to maintain privacy and seclusion after a long day of adventure. Would highly recommend!

Maui wedding
Bill was great to work with and very accommodating. He even brought us a vase with flowers for the table. Gets pretty warm during the day but cools off nicely at night with the aid of a fan. We left behind a portable charger when we left and Bill called to let us know and offered to mail it. Luckily my sister was still on the island and stopped to get it. It was in a perfect location and accommodation for what we need to attend a wedding.

Paradise!
We loved our stay at Maui Adventure Villa. This was perfect for us -- a quiet, jungle setting with ocean view, while still being drivable to nearby beaches and cute towns such as Haiku and Pa'ia. It is also nearby Twin Falls, which is at the start of the Road to Hana and has swimming holes. This would be perfect for someone who enjoys quiet nature away from the crowds and resorts and wants to experience the land of Hawaii. Loved it!

Quiet country retreat
We enjoyed our stay at John’s property. It is located in a quiet neighborhood away from the resort areas, yet centrally located on Maui for easy access to Haleakala NP, the Road to Hana and the beaches of west Maui. John was welcoming and kept in touch with us during our stay to offer tips and advice about the island. The unit was well stocked with everything we needed, including all sorts of beach and snorkeling paraphernalia. Additionally there was a washer and dryer at our disposal which we really appreciated. We highly recommend staying in Evergreen Cottage.

Slice of heaven
This was one of the most laid back, relaxing properties we’ve ever stayed in. While this was our first Vrbo rental, we’ve used another popular site quite a bit traveling Europe for 3 years. This studio style unit had everything we needed. The ambiance was perfect. Laying on the oversized cough on the lania, listening to the rain, reading a book was the most relaxing thing we’ve done in a few years. Perfect starting point for the road to Hana or being just outside the touristy area, this amazing place has you covered. John has a ton of local insight and so much guidance to the area if you’d like it. We will definitely be back!

Great base for visiting Maui!
We stayed in Evergreen Cottage for 3 weeks. We were looking for a comfortable base from which we could explore as much of Maui as possible & it worked amazingly well. The property is on a small banana plantation on the outskirts of the town of Ha’iku, on the Hana Highway, 25 min. from Kahului Airport. Feb. is the rainy season, but it was easy to drive into better weather and we were much happier with the quiet, beautiful setting. Nearby towns provide access to groceries and restaurants. The cottage is essentially one large room, well lit by windows, with a kitchen (containing a good-sized fridge) and a comfortable bed. Attached to this are a full private bathroom and a spacious lanai. We tended to prepare 2 simple meals there each day, while typically eating lunch out. I can’t say we spent a lot of time there because we were having fun running all over the island, but when we did we were comfortable and found the surrounding property restful and peaceful. When I say comfortable, that’s what I mean. The cottage is well appointed, clean and very charming, but you’ll have a great time if you don’t expect luxury. (Try the other units on John’s property for that.) Also, there’s direct access to a new washer and dryer. John was a fantastic host. He addressed our needs and answered our questions in advance, including allowing us to rent a new hybrid SUV from him at a competitive rate. In person, John was friendly, helpful, and solicitous without being intrusive.
