Nona Lani Cottages was a great choice for our family to all stay together in the several beautiful cottages right accross the street from the beach. Staff is a great and kind local family and we're amazing hosts and we're so flexible. This is the sweetest place in Kihei and within a short walk to coffee locations and shopping.

loved staying in one of these cottages while on maui! it's the perfect location with beach access nearby. the cottage was super comfortable with one of the best showers i have ever had in a hotel. it was really nice to have a full sized fridge and microwave. the property is absolutely gorgeous with a garden-like atmosphere. there were trees with plumeria flowers that were so pretty. each cottage has a patio out front, and it was perfect to sit on and enjoy the weather/view. there also was a spigot outside each cottage to wash off sand, which was so nice and a thoughtful amenity. this property is family owned and operated, so it was great to support a small business. aisha was great and provided some awesome recommendations of places to see and food to eat. will definitely stay again when i (hopefully) return to maui! read more

Beautiful, local family run property with very clean, well maintained cottages and lovely grounds. The location is excellent and peaceful while still being convenient to everything. A wonderful option whether visiting or hosting an event. Aisha was so welcoming and helpful. Highly recommend! read more

The best stay that my partner and I have ever stayed at. We were fortunate enough to stay here in one of the cottages. The cottage had everything we needed (fridge, stove, pots, pants, utensils, paper towels, drying rack, dish soap and sponge, etc.). It felt like a home away from home in this wonderful paradise. There is a farmers market, ABC store, shaved ice, and a few more eateries walking distance. Recommend crossing the street and walking along the beach. We got to speak to the owner and her daughter. This is the third and 4th generation in the family to run the business and I absolutely love that. I highly recommend this location and also highly recommend that guest book through their website so that the local business can get absorb more of the funds. read more

We recently had the good fortune of staying here for a mini hula halau reunion. This property is located right on South Kihei Road across from the beach and within walking distance of lots of restaurants and shops. There is plenty of parking available on property too. There are multiple cottages each with it's own full kitchen, bathroom, and lanai. They come fully equipped with everything you need for your stay: cook wear, dishes, silverware, towels (bath and beach), beach mat, umbrella, etc. The cottages are clean and in great condition. They offer privacy and space. There is one queen bed in the separate bedroom and a couch in the living room that can double as a twin bed. They are fully air conditioned and comfortable. There are bbqs, tables, and chairs outside. The perfect home away from home! read more

My family and I stayed at Nona Lani seven years ago - this review is very overdue! A friend who grew up in Maui recommended the cottages as one of her favorite get away spots on the island; she held her wedding there. The grounds are beautiful and it's clear that Nona and her family have taken pristine care for the many decades since they opened it. On the last day of our stay, my then three- and six-year-old sons spent some time with Nona's adult daughter, who made them beautiful leis. The whole experience staying there was as close to authentic Hawaiian culture as we were going to get as tourists. Fast forward seven years and we went back to Maui, this time with a third child. With our bigger family, we decided to stay in a condo to have more space, but we stopped at Nona Lani on our first day. Nona's granddaughter, Aisha, greeted us with such hospitality and warmth. Just like her mom had seven years earlier, she made our kids a bracelet and necklace --- this time out in banana leaves. We felt so welcome. read more

If you are planning to stay in Kihei, you should consider staying at the Nona Lani Cottages. They are named after Nona, who is still working there and I met. You have the choice of staying in a cottage or in one of the suites. I stayed in a suite--although I would probably try to book a cottage the next time. The site is really beautiful and they have done a great job on the landscaping. It is really close to a good beach that is easy to walk to--and they have beach towels in the room. I will definitely consider staying here again in the future. read more

This has been the most incredible experience!!! If I could give it 10 stars I would! The most gorgeous view, super clean and the vibe was so peaceful and serene. Perfect location! The waves were 20 steps away. My fiancé and I got engaged here and now want to come back for our wedding and honey moon! Thank you Elena and Aisha for the hospitality and the most beautiful leis we will be back! Love, Allie and Mike read more

Can only review the leis Saw their sign advertising leis while driving. Called the day before I left to go home, hoping to find local leis. She said she'd make them and leave them in the fridge overnight for pick up early in the am. She told me the total (super reasonable) and asked that payment be left in the mail box- HONOR SYSTEM!! Was not disappointed. Wow, beautiful and fragrant leis of plumeria flowers and it looked like pikake buds. Made a memorable going away gift and a great souvenir to a family member back home Support small local businesses read more

Awesome place to stay! Very accommodating and roomy cottages with a beachfront view of Kihei beach. Owners/management are super nice and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of.

I've visited Maui for about the 10th time, always staying with family, however with COVID-19 that wasn't an option so my partner and I decided to stay at Nona Lani Cottages. The funny thing is, it felt like I was staying with family by the end of it :) Staying in Nona Lani Cottages was amazing! We stayed in Cottage #5, one of the garden view cottages and it had everything a couple needed for a week of relaxation and exploration. Full kitchen, mirrors, bed, massive shower and bathroom, the lana'i (porch) was awesome for breakfasts, and it's proximity to the beach is unbeatable. It's located in the quieter area of Kihei, so at night if you leave your windows open, you can hear the waves crashing on the sand. I mentioned close proximity to the water, and I mean less than 30 seconds away. All we had to do was cross one street with our boogie boards and hit the waves just like that. And we even saw a turtle up close in the water, and whales off in the distance. And with the location being westward facing, the sunsets are remarkable! Also if you plan to snorkel - some of the best spots in Maui are literally 15 minutes away, which makes getting up in the morning to beat the crowds not too tough at all! The property itself is not what you expect if you've ever stayed on Maui or in Kihei before. Each of the 8 cottages are a good distance from each other, and this privacy is worth every cent. We stayed in another location on this same trip and the noise of neighbors above and next to us was unbearable. The cottages truly give you a place to recharge, find yourself, and relax. There are lounging chairs available to sunbathe on, picnic tables and bbq's if you're thinking of cooking some fresh fish outdoors, and beautiful gardens to look at local and native plant life! Also, depending on the season, fresh fruit might be available - our cottage had a banana tree that probably was going to be ripe in 2 weeks. Some other plus sides are the on site laundry facilities, outdoor shower on our cottage was awesome to rinse off the sand from the beach, and parking was right on site. I would equate staying here to staying at a home away from home. The people at Nona Lani Cottages treat you like family (and it's family owned and operated for 50 years!), and so don't hesitate to ask them any questions. I can't imagine visiting Maui and staying anywhere but here when I'm not staying with my own family, because these people made us feel like family. Mahalo to Elena, Val, and of course Nona for making us feel at home! read more

My wife and I stayed at the Nona Lani cottages for the latter-half of our honeymoon. What a hidden gem! It's a beautiful oasis that's tucked away, and my wife immediately fell in love with the garden; it's apparent that a lot of care and love goes into maintaining the property. It's a family-owned operation (Maui Natives), and they really welcome you with open arms and make you feel at home. A special thank you to Nona, Elena, Aisha, and Valerie for making our Maui experience a special one! We can't wait to be back, and will spread the word to all of our friends and family. read more

My relationship with Nona Lani Cottages goes back to 1992, when my husband and I came for our Honeymoon. It was our first trip to Maui. It was perfect. We didn't want a big fancy resort. Just a nice quiet sanctuary. This place, and the owners, went beyond our expectations. We felt like family. We returned a few times over the next few years, as babies came along. My daughters and I returned in 2006, to scatter my husband's ashes on Maui, as he requested me to do. Once again, my family was warmly welcomed at Nona Lani. Although there may have been updates over the years, and the price...not quite the same, it still has a big heart. I hope to be able to return someday, who knows, maybe with grandbabies. Thank you Nona Lani for being a part of my family's life. read more

This wonderful family of native Hawaiian's presents an awesome property to enjoy. They were all great conversationalists and always asking if we needed anything.

Mahalo to a wonderful family. read more

This is the perfect place for anyone not wanting the typical hotel stay. Each cottage comes with a full kitchen, huge bathroom, 2 sleepers in living room and very spacious bedroom. I enjoyed watching the sunset over the beach as I sat on the porch relaxing. Located directly across the beach and just minutes away from many restaurants and bars, this was an ideal location for us. There are hammocks and bbq grills located on property for your use and an ideal ground for children to hang out. I highly recommend this property and will definitely stay here again when back on Maui. read more

The family that runs the place is great! Very down to earth folks. We stayed in one of the studio rooms, and it was spacious. The garden is very nice. The rates were very reasonable. I would definitely stay here again. It has a seventies feel to the decor, but I'm fine with that myself. The cottages have full kitchens with plate and silverware. The studios have a refrigerator and microwave. Across the street you can watch the sunset go over the mountains. I enjoyed my stay here. read more

This beautiful family owned place in North Kihei, Nona Lani, is a perfect balance of peace, beauty, and sustenance. What separates this place from others is their phenomenal hospitality. We misunderstood our check-in time and arrived way earlier than they expected. And yet Elena greeted us, informed us of the situation, made sure to get the room ready earlier, and greeted us with hand-made leis using flowers from their grounds. Her sister, Valerie, made us a delicious fruit plate from the surrounding trees while we waited. Our suite was amazing - well air-conditioned, spacious, really comfortable bed. But even better was that we could walk around and pick up just-fallen flowers off the ground to put in my gf's hair, and hanging out there we could hear the beach while swinging on the hammock. The beach was right across the street. Although that specific spot isn't a great place for snorkeling, it is amazing to walk along and swim in. Highly recommended to check out for a few days during your Maui stay. We'll be back next time, maybe we'll see you there! :) read more

We did not stay at this property it looks very charming and we may stay during a future trip. This review is of the fresh leis sold here. We drove by this property several times during our stay, and on our last day we stopped by to purchase fresh leis to take back home with us. The property is small with cute little bungalows. It's family owned by Nona. We met Nona and she helped us purchase two beautiful leis. These were the nicest leis we've seen our entire time on Maui, and it was only $20 for 2 leis! She told us that her daughter makes the leis and she uses the plants and flowers from their garden. Nona told us how to store the leis so that they would last the entire flight home. She was so incredibly nice and the leis we perfect when we got back home! They smell so beautiful and it is making me miss Maui. I wish we knew about their leis earlier so that we could have ordered these for our wedding. read more

Nona Lani Cottages - Hotels Near Me - Kihei, Hawaii

We booked a suite (not a cottage) as a last minute decision due to illness, and it was one of the only ones available. This deserves nothing more than 2 stars. Between pricing, privacy, and fees. After the whole ordeal we were wishing we would have chosen one of the other places we considered. I will start by saying this place is very cultural. That could make some people feel uncomfortable, but some might feel even better. Check in time was at 3, and we did show up around 3:20, but our room wasn't even done until about 4:15. So that did suck not being able to check in when you're supposed to. I'll be fair and say that since the booking was late, maybe that has something to do with it. Customer service was fine. They do have free parking which is a huge plus and they even let my sister park her car there just until it was time for her to leave to the airport. So that was very nice. We get into the room, and it is gorgeous! The room is very spacious, very spacious bathroom, clean, smells nice, even a private patio. The room would get a 5 star, other than as night time came around, my husband was walking back to the room and told me he could see me through the window even though there was a covering. I go outside to see and sure enough you can completely see into the room from the outside! It was very uncomfortable knowing that so we actually used things from the hotel to literally cover up the windows. I really don't think one single guest would appreciate the lack of privacy. They need to get some decent window coverings put in. It makes me wonder how many people have slept in there not even knowing. The walls are very thin, and you can hear the faintest sounds in the rooms next to/above yours. Not a huge deal, but worth mentioning. One major complaint is there was a giant picture frame hung directly above the bed. It was not completely attached to the wall. It was just hanging by 2 screws. I was in the bathroom and heard a loud noise and I come out and the frame had actually fallen straight down onto the bed while my husband was sleeping! He must have hit it with his arm and this hotel is actually lucky that it didn't fall directly onto his head, or any part of him for that matter. We let them know it fell, and they just said "oh okay we will put it back up." I hope they reinforce it and put it higher up because if it fell while someone was sleeping imagine what could happen if they were moving around And lastly, the price for this hotel on top of a $40 cleaning fee (which after paying an uncomfortable amount in the first place) is just ridiculous. I'm already paying for the nightly hotel price, but then have to pay for it to be cleaned. I haven't run into that with any other hotel at all! The price is way over what the room is worth. No coffee pot. Just a fridge, iron, tv, shower. read more

If you're the hoity-toity, fru-fru type, this isn't the place for you. Go Check out the Fairmont, it's a beautiful hotel. I digress; This is more of a down to earth, homey, comfortable place. They are very welcoming and absolutely lovely people. My Fiancee and I, are so used to rude people that it was a very nice change to have so many people be so welcoming and just have overall beautiful souls. We decided on a vacation to Maui very last minute, like one week notice type of thing. We booked the cottage easily online, with a credit card to reserve the place, but take notice that they'll request a check mailed to them at least 7 days in advanced prior to your reservation. I was prepared to mail my check, but realized we may make it to the cottages before the check does, so I emailed them stating said concern. The next day I get a phone call from.... I believe her name was Katherine (I'm sorry, I'm bad with names), anyways, she was very nice and explained that I was right about the check not making it in time and that my options are pay in cash when we get there, pay with a CC, and a possible third option, that I can't remember at the moment. I chose the easy, CC. At the time of the call, I was at work and didn't have the CC I used to book, so I asked if I could call the next morning. Long story short, they were able to take a CC at short notice, and she was very nice the whole time she was helping me. Thanks! We stayed at cottage #1 during Labor Day week. The view outside our cottage was so awesome! The first morning we were there, I stepped outside and saw a group of people rowing a canoe on this beautiful, glistening water, with the rest of the island as some of the background. We had breakfast outside on the porch. It also had the parking lot conveniently next to us, if you want more nature around you, I'd suggest getting a GARDEN cottage, but for us it was good. In the bedroom, a full size bed that was too hard for my man, but I slept good. He ended up sleeping on the couch for half of the night, then coming over to sleep on the bed. Also, a big closet, within it an ironing board, iron, beach blanket, extra folding bed, extra pillows/blankets/towels, vacuum. There's a loud, but efficient AC (I actually like the sound of it going to sleep....weird). The living area was very cute. I noticed the two paintings on one of the walls, were painted by the owner, nice touch! The tv didn't get very good reception, but I really didn't mind, we weren't always there to watch. And a ceiling fan. The kitchen is stocked with pots, pans, plates, bowls, eating/serving utensils, salt & pepper, and cleaning supplies. A microwave, coffee maker, toaster, stove, fridge, and I believe there was a blender, as well. The thing about being around so much beautiful nature, are bugs. We got a bunch of ants and little beatle looking bugs that all were dying when I found them. I'm not squeamish about bugs, but if you're not comfortable about bugs you should have a bug-killer buddy (perhaps your partner/spouse), buy bug repellent candle, or just grow a pair... whimp. Gorgeous garden and well maintained. I recommend taking a stroll through the garden barefoot, the grass is so soft and feels so good underfoot. There are lots of little birds singing around the garden, too. There are also a washer and dryer, with a row of books you can borrow to read while you wait. You don't have to you use the dryer, the cottages are equipped with a clothesline. Ocean air on my clothes? Yes, please! The cottage also has an outside shower to get the sand and ocean water off of yourself and shoes. Freakin', genius!! Although there are BBQ pits, we didn't utilize them, but it's nice to have the option. Also, there are hammocks and sun chairs you can lounge on. We were to busy doing things through the day, that we didn't really use them, but the last night we were there, I sat out and reclined the sun chair to watch the stars and the shooting stars. Can't see those in the city too good. I miss them. read more

Not many people have reviewed the Nona Lani Cottages in Kihei, especially considering the amount of traffic the island gets from vacationers. Please, don't let that stop you from possibly booking with them - I am here to convince you! It is not unheard of to spend hundreds of dollars a night on a hotel in Maui; thousands if you're going all out and happen to be a millionaire. Well, if you're like me and would rather spend your money on activities and food, then look no further than these cottages. When my hubby and I traveled here in January for our honeymoon, we knew we wanted to really experience the island and immerse ourselves in the culture. I didn't want us staying at some swanky hotel. We wanted to meet locals and support them. These cottages are family owned and we were treated as such! The grounds are absolutely beautiful and full of flowers and fruit trees. We stayed in one of the apartment-style rooms (not the actual cottages) and they had everything we needed. While you won't be getting a full-sized kitchen, stainless steel appliances, or granite counter-tops, you'll get a mini fridge and a coffee maker. There is a microwave on the grounds to use, which we did each morning to heat up oatmeal. We asked the lady working the front desk to provide us with a few essentials, like utensils and the like, and she gave us more than enough and we just washed them in the bathroom sink. She gave us towels, dish soap, mugs, bowls, everything we needed for breakfast. Our shower was huge and had a line to hang our swimsuits. The bathroom was also enormous and had a door for the toilet which was nice. The bed was comfy and there was an A/C unit. While the TV was outdated, we were only really in the room to sleep so we didn't care! We also had a bay window in ours which was awesome. Another perk of this place: there are washers and dryers on site! We stayed for 10 days and loved the ability to do our own laundry. Yes, it costs you money, and yes, you have to do it yourself. While there isn't a ton of parking (maybe 10 spots or so) we never had an issue with it. It is right across from a small and narrow beach which we loved. Although it might not be the best beach, (a) you don't have to drive, and (b) it isn't crowded at all! This would be a great option for those days when you want to avoid the crowds and have some peace and quiet to read a good book. The only thing I might gripe about is the wifi. We didn't have great service in our rooms and so it made it a bit difficult to use Yelp and the like to research restaurants and things to do. When we went outside on the porch, the wifi definitely improved and was usable. I'm so sad to see people reviewing the Nona Lani Cottages poorly. I can only sing their praises. We were checked on by one of the owner's daughters and she brought us an entire tray of fruit to sample which came straight from the grounds! We had lemons for water, bananas, star fruit, passion fruit, everything you could think of. It was such a sweet gesture and we loved talking with her. If my memory serves me correctly, we paid about $150 a night to stay here which is incredibly reasonable. If you're a low key person, I couldn't recommend this place enough. The grounds are beautiful, the owners and staff are sweet, and the rooms are perfect. This is a no-frills kind of place. If you truly want to experience the island lifestyle, stay here. If you're looking for room service and over-the-top style, you'll have to go elsewhere and pay double the price. read more

Private Cottage with Sunset View My wife and I just returned from 5 nights at Nona Lani Cottages. The grounds are beautiful and located directly across the road from a spectacular beach. Keeping in mind that this is not a 5-star resort it was everything we could've asked for and more. This is one of the very few, if not only, detached plantation-style cottages on the beach. Our cottage was very simply decorated - no fancy decor or amenities. We had a separate large bedroom and living area with 2 single beds. The air conditioner and ceiling fans worked great. Additional amenities we noticed was a broom, vacuum, ironing board, iron, nice beach towels, extra sheets and blankets, coffee maker, and blender. A large bay window provided an ocean view from the living area. An outdoor shower was great for rinsing off sand after beach play. There are 2 outdoor BBQs, lots of lounge chairs and a stage/meeting area in their tropical gardens. Washer/dryer room too. We walked the beach every morning and sat on the front porch every evening to watch the sunset. Nona Lani is in a bit more secluded portion on Kihei but excellent restaurants and amenities are only a short distance south in downtown Kihei. The ABC market has everything including groceries, ocean gear, souvenirs and more and is just a short walk up the road or beach. Local tips: Kihei Cafe is the local favorite. Expect to wait in a line but well worth it - cash only Coconuts Cafe serves simple local fish baskets that are very popular Nalu's has live entertainment and serves traditional Hawaiian favorites ABC Market or Foodland have everything you'll need for your full kitchen read more

Awesome! Best kept secret in Maui! Go here and enjoy the true island style! The bungalows are awesome and located in South Kihei on a nice plot of jungle-garden land, they are all spread apart nicely and just perfect for a real island feel. The picnic tables, hammocks, bbqs and much more, not only has you relaxing like you should, but truly enjoying Hawaii like you should. My brother and I load up on groceries (ah fooks, I really miss that store, best ahi-poke ever, it's gone now) anyway, use the BBQ, it's nice to be able to cook at your bungalow and relax enjoy the birds and ocean breeze. The owner David is awesome......we met him and he was so funny and nice. Go here and support a good Hawaiian family. read more

My girlfriend and I researched for hours to determine where we would stay in Maui. We wanted to have a casual Hawaiian experience, as reasonably priced as possible. We were not interested in big, all-inclusive resorts. After visiting a hundred websites, reading reviews, and talking to regular Maui visitors, we chose the Nona Lani Cottages. Simple and unpretentious. After our week-long stay, I am happy to get a chance to post my review. The people that own and work at the cottages are kind and friendly. They made us feel welcome right away. The grounds are beautiful! I never got tired of walking among the trees with my toes in the grass, listening to the birds (my favorite part!) and looking at the colorful flowers, ocean crashing right across the street. The cottages are spaced well so they feel private but not isolated. I especially liked not having neighbors above or below us. When some guests left during our stay, they shared their fruit and groceries with us. When we left, we found some new guests to pass our food and laundry detergent to. Very sweet sharing. The breeze cooled the cottage nicely so we didn't have to use the air conditioner. Everything we needed was inside the cottage: plates, silverware, pans, extra towels and bedding, a tiny cooler, plenty of drawer and closet space, There was a television we never used. We did run out of toilet paper on the last day, but I'm sure that would have been an easy fix if we needed more. Two things that kept me from giving a perfect review were the toilet and the bed. A couple times the toilet would not flush without reaching into the tank and readjusting or reconnecting the chain. It was easy to do, and I didn't want to call for help, but it was a little inconvenient. And the next thing, every night I fell asleep easily because of the adventures we had all day long, but I tossed and turned and woke up stiff every morning. I couldn't get comfortable on the mattress. There wasn't anything wrong with it, I don't think. My girlfriend seemed to sleep fine. It just didn't agree with me for some reason. Overall, our stay at Nona Lani was divine. It was sweet and quaint, even a little quirky. Everyone was nice. I would come back again. Next time I'll just bring my own pillow. :-) read more

These are the sweetest, most accommodating people our traveling group could have asked for. This adorable cozy cottage is located directly across a main street from the beach. This is definitely a family-owned establishment, that treated us as one of their own. If ever our group is traveling back through Maui, Nona Lani is a definite return destination. Give them a visit, and make some good friends! read more

Waking every morning was like opening a present to a beautiful day! Though listed as a garden-view cottage, the ocean and its sunset was beautifully seen from the porch. Ocean waters lapped sand over footprints on the beach just across the street. On our last evening there, a humpback whale and her calf lazed off shore as the sun dipped behind clouds silhouetted on the horizon. The kitchen met needs for easy meals. Dual heads in the shower was delightful!! The gardens were thoughtfully maintained. Soft, cool grass under bare feet is a thousand times better than a carpeted foyer! Our cottage also treated us to two original paintings by Nona, the proprietor. The warmth of aloha flowed as effortlessly from these as her handshake and embrace. I wouldn't stay elsewhere in Maui. read more

These cottages are located on the North end of Kihei on Sugar beach. This beach is definitely inferior to Kihei beaches on the South end. The cottages are overpriced for the amenities provided. Kitchen was very ill equipped and the bathroom needed updating. Grounds are small and very close to the main Kihei road, leading to lack of privacy and high traffic noise. read more

Outstanding place for Maui visit whether you're a tourist or Kama'aina! This is what you imagine when you're thinking of a Hawaii vacation. Detached cottages with a queen bed & 2 twin beds, a kitchen, A/C, patio 2/table + chairs and literally right across the street from the beach with gorgeous Maui views. Property also has ample space w/benches, BBQ and shady spaces to hangout and/or eat. Ample parking and within 5 minutes of the heart of Kihei w/restaurants, grocery stores, pharmacy & gas. Hospitality is first-class with COVID-protocol cleaning & policies in place for masking & social distancing. I give my highest recommendation! read more

We had a wonderful stay during our two weeks at Nona Lani Cottages. We couldn't have asked for a more relaxing setting. We felt this was an authentic Hawaiian experience with the lovely grounds surrounding the 8 cottages. The varied plants, trees, flowers and birds, provided a classic setting. The grounds were so nice that some days we wouldn't even leave the property except to cross the road to go the beach. After seeing some of the recent negative reviews we felt compelled to write our own. This was hands down one of our most relaxing and delightful stays from our many visits to the Hawaiian islands. We feel lucky to have found the Nona Lani. It was perfect to be away from the congested part of Kihei. Above all we appreciated meeting a few of the three generations of family members who help run this establishment. Bridget was very helpful in the reception office. If we needed anything all we had to do was ask. read more

Quoted a high price when other booking sites said otherwise. Also wanted to charge extra for a child! Get real. A garden view in Kihei for $272 is not a great deal. Went to VBRO and found a better price and better location thanks to this ridiculous offer. read more

Perfect place to stay for tourists and locals. Loved the detached cottages which are located directly across the beach! Each cottage has a bedroom with a queen bed, 2 day beds, A/C, full kitchen, and a large bathroom. I was able to enjoy my meals on the porch where there is a table with 2 chairs. Location is very convenient to many restaurants, coffee houses, shops, and gas stations. Hospitality is first-class with COVID-protocol cleaning and safety policies in place. I would highly recommend Nona Lani Cottages! read more

Gorgeous place to stay, but the customer care could work definitely better. We booked The suite and almost everything worked well: big bathroom with all the furnitures, lovely garden with chairs, TV and fridge ok, but the wifi was a bit unstable in the room and the cleaning service was not included for the whole 5 days (unbelievable for the price per day they ask and for the accommodation standards they want to keep)!!! Plus, we were disappointed by their customers treatment: we missed the flight and therefore the first overnight as well, but they didn't refund us, or give us any kind of discount on the whole price or give us a Customer delight like an extra cleaning service. Nothing. That was bad and sad. The staff however is nice and welcoming, specially the Girl at the reception. read more

We had a great stay here. Super quiet as there are only a handful of cottages out on the property. If you want to stay somewhere without that hotel feeling, this is the place to stay. Beach was literally across the street from us. Full kitchen was a great bonus as well. read more

Great location. Price is unbeatable. Stayed for 4th of July weekend. It was the perfect spot for our vacation. Cottage is clean. Nice and cozy. We had one queen bed and two twin beds. Definitely recommend it! read more

Nona Lani Cottages - Perfect spot to wait for sunset! - Hotels Near Me - Kihei, Hawaii

Booked all the cottages for a small destination wedding and it was perfect! Beach is right across the road with nice calm waves (went to the big beach one day and got rocked by a giant wave, did not go back to that one lol). The food around town is a little pricey so we went grocery shopping and used the grills on site to BBQ. Had a nice meal under the trees and played card games. AND we had our wedding on site as well which again made things so easy and convenient. They are used to hosting weddings so they already have the place ready to transform as needed. We hired a mobile photo booth buggie that they were able to wiggle into place. I also really liked being able to go back and forth to my cottage for any little things I needed throughout the night. Oh and we had friends with a baby so it was great for them to be able to put her to bed and be right there with their baby cam to go check on her. We will definitely come back because of all the great memories we made there. read more

I would give 10 stars if I could! Nona and her whole family were amazing! My now hubby and I were getting married at Makena Beach while staying there, and they decorated the room with flowers and by the request of my mother in law calling ahead of time, had set us up with wine, chocolates, local fresh fruits, cheeses, crackers, coffee, snacks....in beautifully decorated baskets and champagne glasses to boot. When I asked for direction on where I could purchase a flower hake lei for our wedding, they simply said they could help....then appeared a day later and brought us a beautiful hake lei that one of the daughters had made! On top of that, refused to take any money for it. As far as the cottages and the grounds them selves- they were PERFECT for us! Very comfy and cozy, had everything we needed! We were in cottage 2 which had a front porch looking directly at the beach, kitchenette, large bed, kitchen with everything you need, TV (if you want that)....and the grounds are lush and bursting with flowers and color everywhere you walk and look. Oh, and the place is one of the cheapest in the area to boot. We felt like family and loved everything about this paradise we found. We will be back with friends and family in tow. read more
