Peaceful oasis with ocean view. Photos just can’t capture the serenity of this place. We enjoyed this place so much, we stayed in one day, just reading and relaxing. The entire property is tree lined and feel like it’s a world apart from the tourist crowd. They had everything you could think of, including a beach cooler. Outdoor shower was nice to clean off sand (and dust from hiking). We brought the beach chairs and towels provided up to Haleakala- much better experience with sunset! It was cool (even a bit chilly) at night, even in August. We didn’t have any issues not having an AC, and we are the kind of people who turn on the AC a lot. Paia is nearby and is a nice town with very hip restaurants! We loved Colleen’s at Cannery and Baked on Maui. I feel like this review isn’t doing justice to the beauty of this property.
