What a special place in Maui's upcountry! The Jasmine Studio was very well thought out and beautiful in every way. We loved the view off the deck and the studio itself had everything we wanted or needed. The grounds of the property were also awe-inspiring and truly gave us that island/tropical feel. We cooked several meals in the small, but fully-equipped kitchen, we did yoga on the deck during sunset, and overall, just felt really at-home. Although it's 20-30 minutes from towns like Makawao, Paia and Haiku, the drives are gorgeous and enjoyable. It didn't seem like a big deal at all to head down the mountain for dinner, surfing, or shopping. Also, we had an incredible day driving the southern route towards Hana to hike the Pipiwai Trail. The 1 hour 45 min. drive was one of the most beautiful we have ever done, and the hike itself through the bamboo forest and to the various waterfalls was spectacular. We really hope to stay here again, and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Maui and looking for something a little different than a resort on the beach. Thank you, Jill, Curtis, and Julia for opening your amazing home to us! We truly loved it.
