Maliko Retreat was the perfect starting point for our trip up Haleakalā and snagging malasadas at Komoda Bakery. We enjoyed being surrounded by all the birds, especially in the morning, and stargazing into the night. As others have said, the tour is a must! We're a bit shy by nature, but Sydney's warmth put us at ease immediately. It's inspiring to see the humility and generosity with which she stewards such a historically and spiritually important place. Mahalo nui loa, Sydney!
