Valerie's guest apartment is amazing! Felt very private, surrounded by fruit trees and hibiscus. You can see the ocean from the lanai, and we enjoyed hearing and watching the ocean from the lawn chairs a short walk away. So many sea turtles!
There is a great little beach walkable from the airbnb, and there was so much available a driving distance away. 10 minutes to Kahului, 20 minutes to Kihei, 45 minutes to Kanaapali or Wailea. Very close to the Twin Falls and (easier) access to Hana and Haleakala National Park. Paia is a cute little town and it was so nice to stay out of the main more touristy areas and find our own adventures!
We had a blast and Valerie was so lovely and kind. She was so easy to communicate with, had many great recommendations, and left us oranges to make fresh squeezed juice with!
