Experience true serenity in the remote and breathtaking Kanaio region of Maui. 1-bedroom, 1-bath cottage sits on Hui land and offers expansive, unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean. Fee simple 1/2 acre interest in a 50 acre Hui. This home is a blank canvas waiting for someone to put some love into it. Surrounded by wide-open space and natural beauty, this quaint island retreat is ideal for buyers seeking privacy, tranquility, and a slower pace of life. Wake up to ocean breezes, enjoy whale watching during the winter months, and take in dramatic sunsets and star-filled skies year-round. The simple, cozy layout provides a comfortable and low-maintenance lifestyle, allowing you to fully embrace Maui’s off-the-grid charm. Kanaio is known for its rugged coastline, panoramic ocean views, and peaceful atmosphere—far removed from crowds and resort living, yet within reach of Upcountry Maui and island amenities. This is a rare opportunity to own a private ocean-view cottage in one of Maui’s most secluded and authentic locations. Perfect as a personal retreat, creative hideaway, or peaceful escape, this unique property offers a chance to reconnect with nature and experience Maui in its purest form. Buyer encouraged to do their own due dilligence. This is not a driveby property. Will require 4-wheel drive to access.
