This place is very true to the listing. Lots of space for a 1-bedroom rental.
I recommend this spot as a peaceful retreat from the crowds in Paia's central tourist hub, and/or a good starting point for setting out to the Haleakala summit or Hana highway. The outdoor spaces are open to the shared yard, so you don't have a fully private outdoor space, but when we were there we didn't have any issues with this. (There are only 2 other rooms rented out on this property.)
There is a lovely spot for breakfast just up the hill from Manolo's place - recommended! Somewhat longer walk down the hill to the Better Things bake shop which is also very nice. To go all the way into the main tourist area of Paia would be a longer walk and all uphill in the heat on the way back. We chose to brave the parking rather than walking when we went into "town."
Manolo provides all you need for a beach day - cooler, towels, boogie boards, snorkels - and the beaches in Paia are beautiful. Manolo is a very friendly and welcoming host.
