This place is fantastic, the best accommodations we've found on Maui. If you're thinking about staying here, do it.

1) It's impeccably clean. Like eat-off-the-floors clean. That's rare on the mainland, much less way out in the jungle.

2) The property is stunningly beautiful, with mature trees, landscaping that's sympathetic to the environment and neat architecture.

3) It captures the beauty and feel of Maui's jungle side, without being as remote or hard-to-reach as Hana. And there's no properties like this out in Hana, at all.

4) Fun/pretty hiking trails throughout the property and in the surrounding area. You could spend a few days just exploring and hanging out on the property's waterfalls, swimming holes and ocean access.

5) There's good snorkeling, spearfishing and ocean swimming. You'll want to go to Little Beach in Wailea or Hana Bay for the whole reef thing, but there's neat rocks and plenty of life under the water right here. If you're a strong, adventurous swimmer, head out to the "temple" rock you'll see a couple hundred yards away and explore the caves.

6) Great kitchen. If you're doing Maui right, you're not dining out. All the tools you need to cook great dinners are right here. Just stop at Mana Foods in Paia on your way for groceries.

We'll be back!
