Rina was a great host. She was very kind and offered us some extras with the room, such as beach towels, beach chairs, a cooler, a bodyboard, etc.

The room and house was nice as well. The in-room private bathroom was very nice to have, so it almost felt like we were staying in a hotel room, but still had the benefit of the shared kitchen.

The location was very nice, about a 7 minute walk to downtown Paia, which offers food, drink, shopping, and an inviting small surf town feel. I would recommend this location over a resort any day. And being in central Maui, if you have a car, pretty much anywhere on the island can be accessible.
