Beautiful Tropical Retreat

“It was our first visit to Maui and this lovely cottage made it a fantastic and memorable one! Haiku is a quiet village away from touristy areas and we liked it a lot. Many thanks to Barbara & Hank, this property has all you need for a comfortable stay and even more – first you enter the flowering driveway you will find Hank’s beautiful tropical garden – he is a gifted gardener! Then a sweet welcome basket of hawaiian treats on the dining table relieve your jet lag – we loved their homegrown bananas! Spotless and beautifully furnished island style rooms make you feel at home, and once you open the large sliding doors the rooms are filled with bright natural light and tropical breeze. The view from the lanai is just breathtaking and a must-see!

We liked to have breakfast on the lanai and enjoy peaceful morning with colorful birds and rainbows. Beach towels and a cold box in the closet came in handy when we went surfing. Oh, don’t forget to grab the straw mat from the backyard as well. We stayed for a week and explored the whole island, and felt sure that we have chosen the best place to stay on Maui. One of our most unforgettable memories is the beautiful sunrise from the top of Haleakara…it was indeed amazing, but what we miss most is those wonderful time we spent at the Hookipa Bayview Cottage. Barbara & Hank – thanks again for everything, we really hope to return! “
