If I could give this more than 5 stars I would. Stop scrolling and book your stay here now. This was an INCREDIBLE Airbnb find and we can not recommend it enough. Cottontail Farms is more then just a beautiful private home for which to sleep. It is an experience. Getting to meet the Alpacas and Angora Rabbits was wonderful. We fed the Alpacas fresh figs from the yard and got to try the figs ourselves. It’s quiet and private, it gives you a very different perspective on Maui that you don’t get at a Resort. Our host, Christine was so nice and made this stay wonderful. On top of all of that, the home is adorable. Well-designed and decorated and had all the amenities we needed. There is no air conditioning, but there is a fan and the temperature in Upcountry is much more mild so air conditioning wasn’t necessary. We slept with the windows open. Heads up that the drive way is a bit steep, but manageable.
While staying here, you are close by to many fun experiences. Hiking a top Haleakala National Park (go for sunrise if your able to get reservations), Sliding Sands Hiking Trail, Maul Winery, Private tours of a Malolo Farm (Proteas), shopping in Paia and Makawao. Lunch or Dinner at Mamas Fish House and all of the waterfalls on the Hana Hwy!
We loved waking up to the animals, trying the fresh eggs from the farm and exploring this area. We highly recommend this Airbnb. Its close to the Airport (30mins) so staying here first when getting to Maui is a great idea. Lastly, I was glad that we stayed here for 3 nights, I would have stayed even longer to enjoy all Upcountry has to offer.
