We stayed while the storm was passing through, I believe this was the only place on the road to Hana which had power and water as they are self suffiecient. The gardens were gorgeous and Michael and Terry were very good hosts. The location was exactly as described in the listing.

This was our second stay at Terry's wonderful cottage. We can't recommend this place enough. The cottage's setting is nestled in the trees overlooking the blue waters off of the Hana coast. Privacy and serenity are what this place is all about. It's the perfect home base for exploring this side of the Island without the rush. Lots of extras are included like beach chairs, coolers, towels etc. We will return!

Loved the stay here and would definitely go back. The cottage is maintained very well and I don’t remember the last time I had hosts that were as welcoming and warm as Terry and Michael. We discovered that our little daughter loves cats as she bonded with Cat here - beautiful memories!

Such a lovely and peaceful place! Everything we needed was there. Comfortable bed, all bathroom amenities supplied and resident outdoor kitty named “Cat” was the icing on the cake. We enjoyed our 4 night stay while checking out the beauty of the land and ocean as well as the wonderful food trucks of Hana. Thank you for a memorable stay. Aloha

We absolutely loved our stay at Etabeni Cottage in Maui. This was the perfect retreat! Our hosts, Michael and Terry, were so sweet and accommodating. They communicated to us before-hand on how to drive the famous road to Hana which led to an amazing experience. The cottage was beautiful and we loved listening to the rain fall at night. Loved strolling through the property and looking at all the plants and flowers growing. We also loved the fresh farm eggs for breakfast which reminded us of home. Thank you for having us! If we ever get a chance to come back to Maui, we would definitely stay again!

We stayed at Entabeni Cottage in Hana for our honeymoon and could not have asked for a better experience. Terry and Michael were wonderful hosts. They were warm, responsive, and shared great recommendations on local places to visit and things to do. The property is beautiful and perfectly secluded. The gardens are stunning and the ocean view is spectacular. Fresh eggs and garden herbs were a wonderful treat. We wished we could have stayed longer. This is the perfect spot for anyone looking for peace, beauty, and genuine Hawaiian hospitality. We highly recommend it.

Terrys cottage is very charming and includes everything you need for a short or extended stay. The washer/dryer came in very handy. The fresh eggs for breakfast were delicious and convenient since you’re pretty far away from any restaurants (which we knew). The gardens are beautiful and the view was amazing. There is no air conditioning (which we knew) but the ocean breeze kept us very comfortable. I did use the the mosquito netting over the bed because small knats did get through the screens. My husband didn’t feel them at all. Terry gave us a full walk through and showed us where everything was and even offered a tour of the grounds. If you would like to stay on the Road to Hana, I would recommend this cottage for a short stay.

Unfortunately we have to write a bad review. After arriving late in the dark, there was a note taped to the front door of the cottage. No keys or keypad. We told the owners the next morning we would be not staying on the property only to sleep there. Our plans were to stay with family in Hana. So at that point when we left, they went through the cottage.The next night when we arrived back to the cottage, the doors were all opened. We knew we had shut the doors in the morning. The owners NEVER said they would be coming in to check up on us. They went in and opened all the doors. Never minding to pick up the dead cockroaches. We had valuables, shopping items, money and gifts. They told VRBO they do it to everyone that stays there . They check to see if you’ve left water running, doors shut or if you’ve hung up your bath towels. I really don’t see what business it is to them. You’re paying a price to stay there. My other family members NEVER HAD the owners checking up on them. I feel it was an invasion of privacy.I give them no stars for respect, courtesy or being honest with us. We will not return to their property ever again. When I approached VRBO, they said there was nothing they could do about it. I left a text message and they never responded. I was told they would call me that evening but never did. There’s better places to stay…

ENCHANTING and MAGICAL!!! We stayed at several different places on the Big Island and Maui, and this was far and away our favorite place. I haven’t slept so good or soundly in years. The heavenly scent of the tropical garden and ocean breeze will calm you during the day and lull you sleep at night. We spent a full day of our time in Hana just relaxing at the cottage, watching the ocean from the main room (combination bedroom/living room), and inhaling the perfume from the garden. Terry and Michael are amazing people. They are both extremely knowledgeable of the all the tropical flora - if you like plants even a little bit, you will be astounded by the variety of species they have cultivated on the property. Terry was also extremely communicative and helpful in preparing to come visit. Do yourself a favor and read everything she sends you carefully - Hana is remote with limited shopping and dining options, as well as limited cell service, so being prepared in advance will make a big impact on the comfort and serenity of your stay. They have beach chairs, boogie boards and snorkeling gear available, but we didn’t use any of it because we didn’t want to leave the cottage. We didn’t want to leave, period. We’re sending any of our friends and family coming to Maui here. I have never been in a place so beautiful and serene. Thank you, Michael and Terry, for a sublime experience.

This property meets all of the requirements we had during our stay, being clean, safe, and beautiful. It was much more than that, however. It was inspiring and felt like it was sprinkled with a little magic. The hospitality was lovely and we felt like we got a glimpse at authentic small-town Hawaiian life. Fantastic.

A beautiful, private, well kept oasis, away from all the noise. A perfect place to relax, reflect and rejuvenate. The cottage is bigger than it looks, and comes with everything you need to stay comfortable and/or enjoy the land and water. I'd recommend more than just a couple of nights here to really gain the East Maui experience. The location is central to everything East Maui has to offer. Our trip here was both magical and spiritual, and we'll never forget the love and care we received from Terry and Michael. With much Aloha, Ned and Katrina
Entabeni holds the key to rejuvenation and adventure.
Pictures of the gardens can't capture it's true beauty.
The driveway to the cottage is dreamy.
The garden is well kept and you get a free tour if you're interested in plants.
