A beautiful property with so much character! Sydney is easy to communicate with and the work she’s done and is doing to uncover historical artifacts and preserve nature is astounding. Be open-minded—we didn’t see many bugs but there were adorable anoles (mini lizards) who kept us company, the wild roosters crow early, and the full-length bathroom windows have no curtains. But we were surrounded by gorgeous tropical plants, felt practically alone in nature with all the comforts of home, and the location is great for proximity to food (Komoda Bakery and the General Store’s hot table were our favourites, just a 5-10 minute drive), beaches, Haleakala summit, and the Road to Hana. It was such a memorable experience that we were sad to leave and we’ll definitely come back if we return to Maui. Thanks so much, Sydney!
