We recently stayed at Gary and Marianne's on our first night in Maui. It was a great place to stay for us as we had other accommodations for the remainder of the week and wanted to see the sunrise at the Haleakala crater while still adjusting to the time change. We arrived after dinner to a clean room with towels laid out for us, were able to relax and unwind for a while before heading to bed early due to the long day of travel. It was very easy to get to the crater from their home as well as being a relatively short drive. It would also be a good central location for anyone doing the drive the Hana and other activities around Maui looking for a place to stay longer then one night.
