Marianne was a great host. She let us in when we arrived at night (we landed late and planned on getting up early the next day for sunrise at Haleakala) and showed us to our room and bathroom area. We didn't spend a lot of time at the house which I wish we could have. It was decorated lovely and very clean. We felt comfortable and slept well! The house is very close to funky Paia and Hoopika Beach. It took around an hour to the summit of Haleakala. After our second night there we headed to the start of Hana Road which is 15-20 minutes away. There are many more things to do in this area of Maui if you have the time!! The area has a charming, rural feel. Awesome!! Thanks Marianne.
