Perfect place to stay while exploring stops along the Hana highway! I would recommend staying 2 nights, exploring on the way in and ending your day here, then exploring down to the O'he'o Pools the next day and doing the long Pipiwai Trail then turning around to stay here, then driving back to Central or West Maui in the morning. This gives you much more time to relax and enjoy your exploration in the region instead of having time pressure hanging over you the entire time.
