We loved the simplicity and authenticity of the place, witnessing the real village life nearby...without losing on comfort and well-being. Although the surroundings are buzzing with life, the lodge remains quiet and tranquil. It is very children friendly, my young son was very upset when we left, he wanted to stay there. The staff was always wonderful to us and very helpful. You can organize many activities from that location. We highly recommend Maua beach lodge

There was nothing we didn t like. We would just recommend that the toilets have a partial covered roof in case it is raining.

Amazing employees of the hotel are helping out in any situation and know all the neighbourhood. It's very quiet and close to the beach. Breakfast is been amazing. I can strongly recommend Maua Beach and am thankful.

Internet unfortunately mostly not available, you will be able to find spots around in other locations very close by.
