The home is clean/beautiful, and a great place to stay if you want to spend more time around locals and in private without the hustle/bustle of staying at a beach condo. You are within 20-30 minutes of anything you need, and to be fair the farthest stretches of the island are not too far either. There are fruit trees that I used to make my morning smoothies, farmers markets, and beauties untold. I loved falling asleep to the sound of deer howling in the hills, parrots singing in the trees... this home was perfect for my week long stay in Maui!
