About this property

Maui is open. Bright modern home, gorgeous Ocean & Mt view 5⭐️

This eco-friendly home is powered from the grid using net metering with 10 KW solar on the roof and is surrounded by 2 acres of organic orchard of mangoes, avos, figs, citrus, papayas and tropical fruits. Solar carport sports a charger for an electric car. There is all the power you need as the villa is connected to Maui Electric.

Open a wall of glass doors breathing in balmy tropical breezes and experience Kula; scenic, serene, satisfying.

Inspired island living in an exquisite architecturally designed home, both casual/comfortable, and luxurious. This home has it all - ideal location and temperatures, privacy, stunning views, a lanai off every room, indoor/outdoor living, and easy access to everything Maui.

Awaken to the sound of birds and the sunrise over Haleakala. Sip locally grown coffee and enjoy tree ripened papaya on the back lanai, or 5 minutes away savor a fresh baked authentic French croissant and an espresso at La Provence, a charming outdoor café.

Explore the island: Haleakala, Hana, snorkeling, windsurfing, hiking, shopping, sunbathing, zipline, botanical & lavender gardens, horseback riding, wine tasting, tennis, golf, or jumping into a pool of fresh water next to a waterfall.

After a full day of activities and adventures, return home, kick off your shoes and relax on the lanai with a glass of wine overlooking the spectacular sunset views over the ocean and West Maui Mountains.

Dine on fresh fish grilled on the barbecue, and after dark be dazzled by the brilliant Milky Way and night lights of Maui. There are so many things to do and see. We provide an information book for leisurely planning of your next adventure.

Aloha has many meanings – hello, goodbye, love, the sharing of breath and life.

Aloha and welcome to Island Sunset Villa. We want to share our island home with you. Bright modern home w/walls of sliding glass doors and gorgeous ocean and mountain view.

Windows and views everywhere!
A beautiful, spacious, relaxing home with completely outfitted kitchen and super comfortable beds. Located away from it all, but you are not far from the ocean or the mountains. Views of the ocean to the west and north! The hosts are very friendly and eager to make your stay as perfect as they can. Awesome place!!

Char is great and the sunset villa treated us so nicely
We stayed in the villa with some friends for our wedding, the property is gorgeous with many fruit trees and flowering plants to look at. The sunset bedroom itself has excellent views of the bay down towards Kihei and the weather up in Kula is excellent averaging 10 degrees cooler than down at the beach. Would happily stay again!

Such a sick place
Some friends and I decided to island hop over to Maui for a few days and stayed here for our trip. The views in Kula are my fav views in Maui so it was so special to be staying up here. Being able to see a beautiful sunrise, sunset and even stargaze. Even though it’s further away from beaches and whatnot, nothing will beat the crisp Kula air. Char made booking & checking in/out so seamless. The space was nice and clean upon arrival. The house was also easy to find on the drive up at night. It’s a nice quiet area as well. Really great place for bigger groups traveling together as there’s beds and bathrooms to accommodate everyone! Will definitely be keeping this place in mind for future Maui trips. And would highly recommend others to stay here too!

Why they chose this property

I visited Maui as a child, 11 years old, and decided then that Hawaii was my home. It took me almost 20 years to be able to move here. I fell in love with Kula and chose a property where I could own a horse and start a family farm. This lot on Holopuni was the perfect location for me. I love the weather with year around temperatures in the 70's. This micro climate is sunny most days of the year with cool afternoon breezes and enough rainfall to keep it green. There is very little wind yet has expansive views of both Haleakala, West Maui Mountains, Kahoolawe and Molokini islands as well as the valley with North and South shores views. I love the open vistas and thoroughly enjoy living in a quiet agricultural neighborhood with lovely long term neighbors. .

What makes this property unique

It was my dream to build my own home. I worked with an architectural designer to create a living space that feels like you are living outside when you are indoors. It is important to me to have lots of windows, natural light and take advantage of the views. I like being able to go outside from any room to enjoy the outdoors which creates a closer connection with the land (aina). I wanted our home to be elegant and inviting, a family home where we raised our kids and invited our friends.
Our Island Sunset Villa is now yours to enjoy. We hope to make it warm, inviting, and comfortable where you have wonderful happy memories, just as we have.
