We really liked staying at Avis’ Sunset unit for 7 days in May. She’s easy to get along with and is a cool host! Very responsive if you need her or gives you the upmost privacy if you don’t. She’s also a great local resource to tap into.
The unit is as described except: there is no breakfast/food provided at this “bed & breakfast”. We stayed at another one in Wailuku and did receive breakfast. Just FYI in case you’re expecting that.
If you’re a light sleeper, then the walking/noise from the upstairs unit may wake you, but we were fine with the thin walls and busy street.
Note: There are houseless guys that loiter in the town day & night, as with any beach city. So you may want to avoid traveling alone.
Avis’ Paia properties are in a *superb* location for either walking in town or driving to other parts of Maui. In addition to the North Shore, it was a good jumping off point to: Kula, Makawao, Upcountry, Haleakalā, and even as far
West as Lahaina; not to mention the entire Kahului area where the airport, Costco & Food Truck Park are.
Lastly, call me crazy, but I really liked the fried chicken from the nearby Minit Stop! They also have other hot & packaged foods for a quick bite.
Mahalo for a great stay Avis!
