Colorful Surf Cottage was a very peaceful and quiet place. Perfect getaway place if you're looking to relax and chill. We specifically chose this cottage and area of the island because it's away from all the tourist-resort part of the island, which is on the west coast. The cottage is pretty central to a lot of things on the island. Paia town is super close by with great boutique shops and restaurants. Paia Fish Market and Mama Fish House are a must go to restaurants. The cottage is close to Road to Hana and Mount Haleakala (must go places!). It's also a decent drive to Waihe'e Ridge Trail (also a must go to hiking trail).
Colorful Surf Cottage was a nice home away from home. Amy and Joel were wonderful hosts. They were very detailed with instructions and so kind to us. Cleaning crew did a great job. Everything was nice and clean when we checked in. We would definitely stay at Colorful Surf Cottage again! :)
