Mike's House was the perfect location for our trip to Maui, as we wanted to hike Kaleakala, drive to Hana, and explore the upcountry, as well as dive and snorkel. Being a short walk to Paia was super fun, with the Mana natural grocery store and lots of funky shops and restaurants nearby. The house was clean, the kitchen was spacious and well equipped, the bed was comfy, and sleeping with the sliding door open to the screened porch was really peaceful, 'til the local rooster reminded us to get up. (We needed to anyway. :) Rina was a great host who provided expert local tips, too, e.g. Maui's northside beaches can be a bit rougher than those on the west side, but Baby Beach was nearby and a great place to swim and relax. We loved our trip and Rina's house (we never met Mike, so...) was a big part of that - we felt at home.
