Nona Lani Cottages

Picture this: a grassy expanse dotted with eight cottages tucked among palm, fruit, and sweet-smelling flower trees, right across the street from a white-sand beach. This is one of the great hidden deals in Kihei. The cottages are tiny but contain everything you'll need: a complete kitchen, twin beds that double as couches in the living room, a separate bedroom with a queen-size bed, and a lanai with table and chairs. The real attraction, however, is the garden setting next to the beach. There are no phones in the cabins, but there's a public one by the check-in area. There's also a barbecue area. Your hosts, the industrious Kong family, also run Happy Valley Hale, hostel accommodations on the other side of the island in Happy Valley, next to Wailuku.
