Forget the condos on the S. side of the island. Haiku is wonderful! The little house is a short walk from a few great restaurants and a well-supplied grocery store. On one side of the house, the lawn backs up to the forest, so you feel out of the bustle. The little house is furnished with everything that you will need for an extended stay. There is a great porch that looks out over the valley, perfect for a glass of wine at the end of the day. At night, the forest comes alive with many sounds (including a few wild roosters). When we return to Maui, this is where we will stay.
