Great place to stay

Ualani is a wonderful place to stay if you enjoy a serene beautiful setting. We loved it! Maggie and John were exceptional hosts and responded to our request in a timely manner. The property is shared with Maggie and John’s place and another VRBO rental but there was plenty of privacy for everyone. We would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful Cottage and Property

My friend and I stayed here for four nights and it was amazing. The property is beautifully kept. The hosts were very nice and greeted us and let us know they were here if we needed anything. The cottage was very clean! Everything was well stocked and they provided extra towels and supplies as needed. The hot tub is a great bonus and it was amazing to be in the hot tub overlooking their lush property. If you want a more relaxing experience this is the place to go! It’s a bit of a drive to other parts of the island but we didn’t mind at all especially since the property was so worth it. I posted pictures of it and so many friends and family wanted to know about it since it offers a more private and relaxing experience than staying at a resort or condo. Highly recommended and would stay here again!

nice up-country lodging for those looking to get away & unplug

GOOD: Quiet, private setting just about a mile off the highway at the start of the Road to Hana. Cooler temperatures by a few degrees than along the coastal areas, with nice breezes. We are pretty hot by nature, and we were okay without A/C. Lots of books and some board games were provided. Very scenic views. Close proximity to JAWS Country Store. NOT SO GOOD: With all of the surrounding vegetation, numerous small bugs (plus a couple of really tiny lizards) were our shared houseguests. The bathroom fan didn't seem to work, so it got really steamy in there in no time. The mattress in one bedroom was pretty lumpy.

Relaxing Haiku cottage

The cottage was clean and very well stocked with necessities and creature comforts. We used the well-equipped kitchen to cook dinners and make breakfasts (get your groceries at Mana Foods in Paia). The location was convenient for the road to Hana, Twin Falls, jungle zip-lining, as well as spending time in Paia. It was wonderful to use the hot tub in the evenings. It was private and quiet (except for a few noisy vehicles driving on the road next to the cottage). The hosts were responsive and hospitable. We were impressed, and would stay here again.

Beautiful property near Haiku

Property is in a beautiful setting,well maintained and has the basic necessities needed for a successful stay. The lush, green surroundings along with the exotic morning birdsong concert made for a peaceful start to the day. There are a few drawbacks of the location: there is a quite busy road right by the house with noisy cars and trucks speeding by and compromising the otherwise serene setting. It is also impossible to take a walk on the neighborhood roads, as it is too dangerous with the roads having no shoulder.

Quiet & comfortable house stay

This house was great! Cutely decorated and very comfortable. Lovely views with lush greenery around. Quick, easy access to Paia and the Road to Hana. Maggie was helpful and attentive to our questions. We didn't get to enjoy the hot tub but this was a great place to relax, listen to the rain, and watch the geckos hunt for bugs on the porch.

Peaceful upcountry getaway

We loved our stay. Highlights include relaxing in outdoor hot tub at the end of a long day, breezes, bird sounds, beautiful grounds, and friendly hosts. We enjoyed the proximity to the start to the road to Hana, and food in Makawao. Also went on a great hike in the Makawao Forest Reserve. This is a great location if you are looking for some quiet (compared to some of the busier sections of island).

True paradise

Wow, just wow. So peaceful, quiet, wonderful view down the yard to the ocean, complete privacy (bamboo and other trees separate the cottage from other houses; we only knew we had neighbors because of the car parked near that house). A nicely stocked kitchen, comfy beds, responsive hosts who provided nice shopping and restaurant suggestions. Very close to Hana Hwy so great for accessing it and the trails and views along it. Also close to Macawao and Paia, good restaurants and shopping. The grocery in nearby Haiku is perfect, with tasty local foods. Easy access to Lahaina and Maalaea for whale watching and snorkeling tours. Such a wonderful place to come back to at the end of a day (we started calling it home), and such a warm and beautiful place to stay when rain interferes with hiking! You will not regret staying here instead of noisier, busier places.

Didn't Want To Leave

Where do I begin?! John and Maggie were outstanding hosts and their beautiful fur-babies especially Grace. We enjoyed peace, times for reflections, and privacy. Our flight left around midnight, and the host offered a room in their home to assist with the long wait, but we still had things on the island we wanted to checkout plus turn in the rental. Such a perfect vacation to the point that we didn't want to leave. Thank you J & M.

Absolutely beautiful

This property is so beautiful. The owners are very responsive to messages. There is beach equipment to use. The chorus of roosters and birds to wake you up is the best. If you're looking for something off the beaten path (about an hour from Lahaina, right near the start of road to Hana), this is the place for you! We will definitely look for availability of we return to Maui. Thank you John and Maggie!
