The house is beautiful and very close to the town of Paia, which is definitely worth spending some time in. If you are hesitant about staying on this side of the island, I would definitely recommend a couple of nights here. This is what you picture when you are dreaming of Maui. Also great starting point if you are planning to do Haleakala or Road to Hana! Rosa and Carl were very responsive and added warm touches to help us celebrate my birthday, which were a nice surprise and greatly appreciated. We had an issue regarding construction workers and equipment on the property, but when we addressed this issue with our hosts, they agreed to our request to stop additional work until after check-out. Great stay for a couple or family of 4. Would love to come back again!
