If you want to stay in a home that you'll never want to leave, stay here in Hana. This farmland sanctuary is surrounded by trees, grass, and animals with vast ocean and volcanic rock masses just 100 yards from the back patio.
Proximity to Hana Park Beach, Food Truck Parks, Fresh Fruit Stands, Wai'anapanapa National Park (black sand beach) and the classic Hasegawa General Store (founded in 1910) kept us comfortably 'local' throughout our 6 nights.
Whoever might think Hana is too remote, think again, because Hana and this home is what made our Maui visit spectacular. It took us into another world that enhanced our appreciation for parks and preserving land, letting animals roam free in vast fields, smelling clean air as we'd look up in the sky and see millions of stars, and, soothing sounds of the ocean and rooster crowing at sunrise. It was like being on another planet versus NYC.
Try to arrive early to Maui (OGG) so you can drive the Hana Highway in daylight and get used to the turns and one-way sections. After that, it's a breeze, and, will become a very special and unique part of your trip, especially with the top down on your convertible.
Thanks to Cynthia, the property manager who was wonderful, and thanks to the home owners who allowed us to live a fairytale for 6 nights. We hope we can visit again in the future. Mahalo and hugs from NYC!
