Staying in Paia was the best decision I made for my first visit to Maui.
The town itself is beautiful (make sure to check out Baldwin beach!) and it’s the most convenient spot to stay if you’re planning on doing the road to Hana.
There was also a beach cooler available which was amazing! When you’re spending the entire day out and about, it’s nice to be able to bring some fruits with you to the beach!
One issue I had was with the roaches in the neighbourhood. I ended up having to deal with 1 each day.
I think they’re just attracted to the humidity inside the building.
It’s stated all over the listing and it could definitely be just because of the neighbourhood this building is in.
However, the other places I stayed in Maui and in Kauai did not have an issue with bugs.
Despite this, I still give this place a 5 star as everything in the listing is accurate. The place is just as beautiful as it is in the pictures.
