We decided to stay here as it was closer to the start of the road to Hana and to Haleakala compared to other stays and resorts and it was a great choice. Very clear instructions, great kitchen & appliances options for those who'd want to use it, and we loved the overall ambiance of the place. Partner is already talking about returning for another trip in the future.

Great place to stay away from hustle and bustle

Alejandro's place was just as it was listed, and really away from the hustle and bustle. It was very peaceful and my kids really enjoyed exploring the property. Only thing that you need to be prepared to drive 15 mins to nearby town for all the needs.

Fantastic little getaway

This property is perfectly located close to Haiku, Paia and the start of the Road to Hāna. Easy drive from here to Haleakalā as well. Property was very safe, including an electric gate. Owner was friendly and helpful and there were no noise concerns with neighbours in the other units. Parking was ample and access was 24/7. I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a stay on Maui that is affordable and close to all the major amenities and many attractions.

Nice location but rooms need a renovation

The apartment is big. Bed is comfortable. The shower need definitely a deep cleaning or a renovation. There was mold in each corner. The kitchen is small and is the home of ant’s, for us it was not really comfortable to cook.

A Peaceful Retreat

Peaceful and well-kept property in a rural agricultural area of Maui, convenient to explore the Road to Hana and Haleakala National Park. The studio was comfortable and clean with a well-equipped kitchen and spacious bathroom. The California King bed was firm and very comfortable. The Starlink wifi worked well for our wfh needs. The studio is located 0.2 miles from entrance to the property, which is where the trash bin is located to discard trash before check out. NOTE: This is a gated property, and at the time of our trip the gate code was not listed under check-in instructions (it was under driving directions instead). Make sure you screenshot the code before your trip, since cell reception is very poor and you might find yourself parked at the gate without a way to get in.

Natural beauty and a peaceful setting in Ha'iku

We just spent a week at this property- the description and pictures posted here are exactly what we experienced. The studio is bright and airy with lots of windows and great access to the outdoors, and provided everything we needed. We particularly appreciated the comfort of the king size bed - as we get older we find that having a good night's sleep is very important and we enjoyed 7 great nights! Never underestimate the value of a great mattress :). After spending the previous week in Kihei and West Maui, we really appreciated the serenity and the natural beauty of this property, and the opportunity to just relax in beautiful surroundings. This is a great base to explore the North Shore, the Upcountry, Haleakala and Hana - and experience Maui at its best. But you are still only a 45 minutes drive to Kihei and Wailea and 75 minutes from the beaches at Ka'anapali and Kapalua . Alejandro and his family were wonderful hosts - close at hand and responsive if needed, but never intrusive. We would return to this property again.

Linda M.

Some will enjoy it. Isolated.

Place is clean and open and airy... Read "amenities" closely since you may be surprised about what is and is not provided. Internet is from the Jurassic era and incredibly slow. It says TV but you need to read closely and notice that on the next line it says DVD player....there is no "real" TV with on-air and/or cable/dish, etc. It is on a nicely kept "farm" with a few fruit trees that have no fruit most of the year. It is VERY REMOTE so if you like solitude and having to drive everywhere this is for you. Bed is incredibly hard, which some will like but others.... The price is fairly low for Maui, so I guess you get what you pay for. And, oh yes, bring any toiletries you may need beyond a single roll of toilet paper and some paper towels.

Great choice for us

This is our third time staying on this beautiful property. It really suits us, as we like a quiet environment with alot of natural beauty. It's necessary to have a rental car as it isn't walking distance to any towns, but that was fine with us. Almost everything that we wanted to do was 5 or 10 minutes away. The studios are all really nice and well equipped. Any time there was an issue, Alejandro and his lovely family were quick to respond. I would definitely recommend this property!

Lovely lush getaway

The studio was an excellent find. It had everything we needed and the arrangement of the kitchen, living, dining, sleeping areas is such that it hardly feels like a studio at all--very cool! It was very comfortable and well appointed, very clean and tidy. The overall property is great for wandering around and admiring--lots of greenery to explore! Alejandro was also very attentive and accessible, and his dog Romeo is incredibly loving and peaceful. We also enjoyed seeing his art on the walls. Mahalo!

Peace, quiet and nature

The studio was more comfortable than I was anticipating and I am so grateful I chose to stay at Alejandro's property. The property's energy is incredibly peaceful, still and quiet. If you are looking for a quiet sanctuary for your stay surrounded by nature this would be a good match. It's also one of the cleanest accommodations I've ever stayed at. Loved the hand-made soap provided in the bathroom. The whole experience was wonderfully easy - check out/check-in with the lockbox and quick attention to any questions I had really worked well for me. Will stay here anytime I go to Maui.
