About this property

Beautiful Hana, Near Waianapanapa State Park. STR 216/0003 TA186-656-9728-01

Situated on a well groomed acre, Luana Cottage offers privacy as well as easy access to hiking, swimming, and exploring the beautiful Eastern side of Maui.
Reverse Osmosis drinking water and solar hot water (with electric backup), along with a complete kitchen and living area, assure all the comforts of home.
There are two bedrooms, each with a comfortable queen bed and full bathroom.
Beaches and Hiking:
Take a 5 minute walk to Waianapanapa State Park to watch the sun rise. There are fruit stands to gather your breakfast along the way. Wiggle your toes in the black sand beach. Take a swim in the sparkling ocean or hike along the 'Kings Trail' and take in the beauty of the black arches, blow holes, sea turtles and whales (when in season) along the coastal path. Snorkel in the calm waters of Hana Bay or take the short hike to Red Sands. Just 2 miles from Hana town is Koki and Hamoa beach. A great place to watch the surfers or boogie board yourself.
Just 10 miles from Hana is Ohe'o Gulch with the 7 Sacred Pools. Take an amazing hike through the bamboo forest to Waimoku falls. Keep going and visit Palapala Ho'omau Church, and the grave of Charles Lindbergh.

Hana:
Hana is like stepping back in time to what Hawaii was like 30 years ago before high rise condos and shopping centers. You can find all the gifts you would need such as Aloha shirts, homemade jellies and jewelry at the local stands or quaint shops. The beauty of the area and the genuine Aloha spirit of the people make this a truly special place

A Paradise In Hana
The property was exactly as described. Beautiful large fruit tree garden property within walking distance to Waianapanapa State Park's black sand beach. Home was very clean and well-stocked. The owner's housekeeper left fresh fruit for us on the day we checked in. Owner was very responsive to questions before our arrival.

Wonderful Vacation
This was an incredible house for our family summer vacation. My husband and I have visited Maui before, but this was the first time for the kids and they had an absolute blast. The house is at a great location - close to town and the beaches, and has everything you need for a Maui getaway.

Nice, Quiet Home
Hāna is a lovely place away from any hustle or bustle! We enjoyed the beaches and parks very much. Frisbee in the yard amidst fruit trees was very fun. The home kept us well and well rested with all needed amenities available. Thank you so much!

True experience of Maui Paradise
Our only regret for our stay is that we didn’t plan to stay longer. For anyone who wants to experience relaxation in a quiet and lush paradise then Hana is the place for you. The property is beautiful, with a wonderful Lanai (patio) to enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner. Many beaches within short driving distance and wonderful hikes nearby as well. The black sands beach is walking distance from the property, but you need a reservation to visit, even if you plan to walk there. So book that in advance of your trip. Also, Hana only has a general store and no major grocery chains so we would recommend stopping in the city for any essentials before making the trip to Hana. Would recommend a hundred times over and if we are lucky enough to get to visit Maui again we will definitely be back here.

Comfortable and spacious
This accommodation is centrally located to the town of Hana and the Waianapanapa State Park. The home is beautiful and clean inside with good privacy from neighbors. There are numerous fruit trees on the property (Citrus, avocado, star fruit) and it's a joy to pick. Fresh flowers are on the grounds as well. Wonderful having towels provided for the beach and a clothes washer. Would be nice to have had a bbq though. You are on the road to Waianapanapa State Park, but it is not an easy walk as this road is narrow and has a fair amount of tourist traffic, besides you need reservations whether driving or walking in. I would stay here again.

Lovely peaceful home
Perfect place to spend two nights in Hana. The house was clean and comfortable. The property was beautiful with a huge garden full of fruit trees. Sunrise from the deck was a perfect way to start the day. Convenient location on the street leading to the Waiʻānapanapa state park and a short drive into Hana.

Quaint cottage and beautiful property
We had a wonderful stay. Great location. Easy drive to Hana town and Kipahulu. Cottage had great amenities- toiletries in the bathroom, fully stocked kitchen, and beach chairs, foam cooler, boogie boards, and beach toys. Very close to Black Sand Beach but be sure to plan ahead and make reservations if you want to go. They won’t even let you go in on foot without a reservation.

Quick stopover
Got there just before dark and ate our food-truck, takeout dinner. After a long flight and drive it was so relaxing to finally chill out. Stayed one night. Next day we enjoyed coffee, pastries and fruit on the patio, then hit up the state part when it opened at 7am. Hiked and swam, came back, showered and (sadly) had to check out for the next stop on our adventure. Perfect stay but way too short. Next time we’ll stay longer! So so nice!! Thanks for the accommodations :)

Comfortable stay
The home was conveniently located to Waianapanapa State Park and was comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed to make a meal. There was a lovely floral arrangement with native flowers for us to enjoy. The only negatives were no AC (one person in our party was quite uncomfortable due to the heat) and the barking of neighborhood dogs in the middle of the night. The dogs were out of the owner’s control, and it only occurred one of our two nights and didn’t last too long, but you might want to bring earplugs if this would bother you. With no AC it was necessary to have the windows open at night. The house stayed comfortable until around 10-11am when it began to become quite warm inside. But there was a lovely large yard, a nice outdoor eating area and a grill available. Outside was cooler and comfortable, so the heat wasn’t a problem if you plan to spend the afternoon and early evening outside or if you like it very warm.

Magical stay!
The house was very comfortable and sits on a very large, beautiful yard. We loved getting to spend 2 nights in Hana. We walked to black sand beach and did many hikes while there. The location was perfect and quiet. It’s very peaceful and the owners put that extra touch with fresh tropical flowers and a bowl of fruit. I loved getting oranges from the trees on the property. It was a magical 3 days! I would definitely stay here again!

Through no fault of the property owner, we found the house without power from the recent major storms when we arrived. We found alternative accommodations for the night then returned to a great house with electricity. The home is comfortable with basic needs covered. We loved the proximity to the state park.

Great house, great yard, attention to detail impresses
My experience is superb in every aspect. As a woodworker hobbyist I noticed many works and touches of another enthusiast. Many little details in this house struck me as genius approach to improvements. Thank you very much for the great experience. I have only one suggestion - in your first email to the guests please add a line saying “Note that visiting the Black beach requires a reservation now”. We had visited the Black beach in previous years and were quite unpleasantly surprised by this new state regulation.

I am a part time resident of Maui and could not think of a more wonderful place to call home!
I live on the mainland in Montana when I am not here.

Why they chose this property

While in Hana we enjoy planting and maintaining the various fruit trees we have growing. The property used to be solid jungle. It has taken many years to clear and replant the land. We now can enjoy the hard work and indulge in all the delicious fresh fruit!
The properties in our neighborhood are one half acre and more, so there is plenty of privacy and quiet evenings. Our property is one acre with many plantings to ensure privacy. We have had our lava wall built along the road and a hibiscus hedge that almost grows the length of it. This screens the road and adds to our privacy.

What makes this property unique

The Hana area is a truly unique and wonderful place where you can get away from a hectic pace and recharge!
Fresh fish, fresh fruit and great hiking and beaches along with the welcoming atmosphere, make Hana the perfect get away!

Most morning we take a short walk to Waianapanapa State Park. It is magical walking through the shade of the kamani nut trees to open up to the view of beautiful black lava arches, brilliant blue ocean and striking green plants. The coastal trails are the same the ancient Hawaiians used to travel the island. The walk also winds around the camping and picnic area have all been redone with handicap access to look outs and handrails.
A picture perfect view in any direction!
