We spent our first night in Maui at Gary and Marianne’s place. I couldn’t think of a better way to have started our trip!
Their home is stunning—beautifully restored, full of history, sparkling clean and filled with the aroma of Marianne’s essential oils. The location is centrally located despite being more in “upcountry”. We loved the feeling of seclusion while only being 10-15 minutes from Haiku and Paia. The surrounding landscape is pastoral perfection, full of grasses, gorgeous sunrises and bird-and-bug song. We especially enjoyed reading on the front porch in the evening while listening to the sounds of the nighttime insects.
Gary and Marianne were wonderful hosts—just enough interaction to give some great tips and insight, but not enough to be overbearing. We felt very comfortable there and wished we had spent more than one evening there.
I cannot think of a thing they could do to improve the experience. Thanks for a great stay!
