Maui What a Wonderful World Bed and Breakfast

This place has been my favorite stay in Maui. Rooms are stocked with every amenity you could possibly imagine. We came and the owners Jim and Eva left a basket with avocados, bread and muffins. The fridge was stocked with fresh pineapples, yogurts and juice all for no charge. There is an amazing outdoor patio for grilling an everything you could need to cook inside. The owners are so kind and helpful with everything. Plus we got a great discount for paying cash!

We stayed here on our latest trip to Maui and LOVED it! Our room was clean, the lush plant life outside our windows was dreamy, and Eva and Jim were so friendly and accommodating! Highly recommend staying here if you are visiting Maui!

We absolutely LOVED our stay at What A Wonderful World B&B. It felt like a home away from home. It had all the amenities we could think of + COVID friendly check in/check out process.nnThere were packaged treats that came in handy when I was too tired to go out & get dinner after a long day of travel. Eva was so so incredibly responsive & helpful in answering our many questions. This will be our new go-to when staying on Maui. Did I mention AC?!!! This came in super handy when bearing the Maui heat. I will be recommending WAWW B&B to all our family & friends.

This is a family run bed and breakfast but your experience will largely depend on your location in the house. I didn’t realize there were such stark differences in the rooms when I booked as you don’t get that option when booking through a third party site. What I didn’t realize was that if you end up with the “Pineapple Suite” it is the smallest of the rooms and won’t look much like a “suite” but a studio. You’ll be greeted by a toilet when you enter into the room because the entrance into the room is through the bathroom. The room is dated and a little small but it does have a certain island-y charm. The bath stall is abysmally small and the shower head is hardly adjustable so what you end up with is all the hot water spraying into the opposite wall which makes it extremely difficult to get sand out of the lower regions of your body. The bathroom also smelled of mildew and the tv was quite small (it is a smart tv though). There is also a shared washer/dryer on site but that was also heavily covered in mildew. During the days we stayed there, there were children staying and eventually other boarders which is when we realized how the sound insulation was non-existent. Mosquitos and ants were also plentiful.nnHOWEVER, this is really one of the most well thought out bed and breakfast I’ve stayed at. The hosts literally thought of everything you could ever possibly need and left it at your disposal. Location is conveniently located close to Wailea and the the shores of Kihei (not quite walking distance though) .

Wow! Eva and Jim know how to host! First I’d like to say up until we got to the b&b we were having a rough travel day. Once we got to the room that all changed and the beginning of our luck started to turn around. We contacted Eva and notified her that we would be arriving later than expected in which she said that it was ok and that our room would be ready. AWESOME! When we arrived at the b&b there was a note letting us know where our room was and where to park our car. As we walked into the room, the room was clean with tons of great amenities including a fridge, microwave, sink, coffee machine and portable stove. Being that it is a b&b typically Eva would make breakfast for guest but being that the government limits b&b cooking because of COVID she now stocked the room with tons of great treats! We had a full basket of bagels, toast, dragon fruit, avocado, oatmeal, oj in the fridge, eggs, yogurt and a bunch more! This was great for us for a quick bite before we headed out for a day out in the water or a hike. If we needed anything refilled she gave us a list of items we could restock on. The next morning I was able to meet Eva and Jim in person. They were so friendly and welcoming. Eva showed me all the amenities at the b&b including washer drier, dvds, reef safe sunblock, our beach chairs, an umbrella, and a cooler! Literally everything! The b&b is located about 7 mins away from downtown Kihei and about a 5 min drive to the closest beach. The b&b sits in a quiet and quaint neighborhood with minimal noise and a great wake up call to birds in the patio and front. When you stay, you are able to go up the stairs to an amazing wrap around porch that looks over the island! Great for having coffee before heading out to explore! Eva and Jim also provided us some snorkel gear which was great because we were looking into renting some out for the week but this ended up being so much better! They helped us find great spots for snorkeling including a wildlife preserve that was 18 mins away that is filled with tons of fish and even turtles while we were their that day! Eva also gave me a number to one of her friend’s that rents out standup paddle boards, she drops them off and picks them up for you! Unfortunately we didn’t take advantage of this because we were on a time crunch but will definitely be back to do some paddle boarding! All and all the trip was still awesome even with a lot of things being closed due to COVID. Eva and Jim did their homework and helped us pick and choose things to do and where to go. They had info on what was open and what was not. I am glad I stumbled upon this b&b it was our first time staying at a bed and breakfast and won’t be our last! Mahalo for everything again! We will be back!
