My wife and I had a lovely stay at the Haleakala Cottage. Sharyn is very warm and welcoming, checks in at the beginning of your stay to make sure you're doing well and if you have any questions, then really lets you on your own to enjoy the beautiful amenities and gardens surrounding the cottage.

The cottage has a great kitchen, even with a dishwasher. And we found it stocked with coffee, eggs, wine and bread when we arrived.

There is no TV reception, but there is a TV with DVD player. We found our cell phone reception to be about half strength, but there is also wireless internet in the cottage that was very reliable and fast. There is also a laundry room cottage just next door, which was excellent.

Our stay was great and we will definitely come back or recommend staying with Sharyn to friends.

Advice: This is definitely an out of the way spot for people who are looking to relax, listen to the breeze in the trees, and be by themselves. And less of a base for hitting up city/night-life spots. There was a rare, massive wind storm that toppled some trees across the driveway when we were there. And although they had everything sawed apart and cleared well before we had to hit the road for the airport in the morning, it was a good reminder of how remote the cottage is. It was amazing how on top of it they were, and how helpful about the whole thing. Amazing.

See you soon again, Sharyn!
