This is the most magical place from which to explore the Valley Isle. Starting and ending your day with the incredible view over that very valley will be one of the most precious parts of your stay. Especially if you have a cocktail in hand at sunset. The cabin has a timeless elegance and there are some wonderful history books on the shelves to help you better contextualize your surroundings. Practically, we were also very happy to discover beach towels, chairs, an umbrella, cooler, and even a boogie board that we dragged from beach to beach all over the island. The proximity to Haleakala is a perk, but it’s easy to get almost anywhere within 20 - 45 minutes. If you’re looking for a secluded, verdant, and inspiring homebase on your trip to Maui, this is the place.
