There are lots of extra little things that make the place super comfortable and just like home. It's a beautiful, peaceful place; very quiet! It feels removed but it's also close to Paia. Would love to stay longer next time! It would be a perfect spot to rent out the entire house and have friends or family there, each with their own room and bathroom, then sharing the kitchen and living area. I love the Lanai with different seating areas and the ocean view, WOW! Howard is very responsive to messages and quite welcoming as well. I didn't see or meet anyone but felt very much at home there. Due to Covid I had the whole place to myself which was quite enjoyable. I will definitely stay here again if I get back to Maui sometime.
