Albert is an outstanding host. Brough us fresh fruit from the property several times. Gave us several "local" tips on food and spots to check out. The short hike (100 yards or so) to the Venus pool absolutely makes this place! Best swimming hole in the world and quite private. The home is perfect for a quiet getaway nestled in coconut and Banana trees. It is in the jungle so bring your bug spray. There are some geckos that are harmless in the house each night which only adds to the experience. We have been to Maui many times and stayed at very nice resorts. 4 Seasons, Fairmont , and Westin. If you really want to see the "real" Hawaii, and not the man made version, go to Hana and stay a few days. Don't be one who drives there for a couple hours snapping pictures and not immersing yourself in the beauty. A few days here will change you for the better!
