Elly was a wonderful host and this house on the slopes of Haleakala was a great place to stay. It is away from the crowds at the resorts, but Maui is small enough that it's an easy drive to anywhere you want to go on the island. During our stay we drove to the summit of Haleakala, took the road to Hana on the east side, and visited the beaches on the west side and south Maui. But at the end of each day, we had a beautiful home in the hills to return to.
Besides all the standard amenities, Elly gave us some delicious apple bananas grown on the property. We're looking forward to our next visit!
