This trip symbolized a return to Maui in many ways for us, and hopefully symbolized the path to normalcy for its residents. We were welcomed everywhere we went across Maui with many thanks for returning to visit their cherished island. Even our host shared in this spirit by donating almost 1000 dollars of our visit to charity. Additionally, they let people stay there for over a month during the tragedy. For us this return also marked my mom’s 70th birthday, my return from 15 years ago to Maui on my honeymoon, and our kids first Hawaii adventure. On all counts this was our favorite place we ever stayed at Maui and a truly special trip. The place was great with very good air conditioning, comfy beds, and a very quiet and secluded space. Our kids got avocados from the tree outside that we ate and became a morning ritual hunting for them. We saw a whale from the balcony the last day and a turtle out in front. Our favorite snorkeling was airport beach just 10 minutes away. We ate pike bowls at miso phat only .2 of a mile away and had a whole Maui gold pineapple everyday (3 dollars at Costco). We cooked breakfast and lunch at the house and it was nicely equipped. Our host even let us check out at 7 pm on our last day for a small fee. Overall, 10/10 would definitely recommend and hope we can stay there again someday! Thank you so much for your hospitality!
