Aloha, sorry but at this time we are not hosting to families with children younger than 12 Mahalo. This is a NO SMOKING property. Mahalo. Our Jungalow Cottage is 780 square feet and overlooks breathtaking views of Haleakala Ranch and west Maui. This area of Hawaii is special and unique. It is a very different experience, one of the mountain. We are on 2.5 acres and nestled upon the slopes of Haleakala (meaning house of the sun in Hawaiian). The summit of Haleakala is at 10,023 ft and is a must see while on Maui. We are at approximately 3000 ft and surrounded by cattle ranches and forrest. Hiking and mountain biking trails are near by. Wild pheasant, deer, pigs and Pueo (hawaiian owl) are often seen. This is a very special place on Maui and only really described by being here in person yet only 8 min. from the town of Makawao. Our guests are welcome to use the swimming pool, hot tub and dry sauna at will according to our house rules. Please note that use of the pool, hot tub and dry sauna are private if reserved via our shared calendar app. Guests may also wander the sprawling property planted with many aromatic plants such as Rose Geranium, Lemon Verbena, Lemon Grass, Rosemary and others. There are also Avocados, Lemons and limes for our guests to enjoy when in season. Because of the natural beauty and peace afforded by this amazing place we encourage you feel that solitude and to please respect the same of others. We are however excited to meet our guests and get to know each other. It becomes a more personal experience for all parties. Of course if you want to be private please do, we are always available to answer any questions or to help in anyway. Just text or call.

The bed and pillows are so fluffy and comfortable, and when you wake-up, you can just gaze out of the window from bed. The pool is refreshing, the hot tub is relaxing, and the sauna is detoxifying. ##### Brian L. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mike A.

Views towards the north Maui were beautiful. Beautiful ride up the side of the mountain and once you get here, so relaxing, hot tub and pool area were amazing. Mahalo. ##### Mike A.

Great views, quiet; attentive, caring owners. Excellent! Highly recommend & would stay here again. ##### Randy W. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Parker A.

The pictures look amazing and the actual view is even better than comes across. If you want a calm, serene retreat away from the hustle and bustle this is absolutely the place to book! ##### Parker A. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael W.

Our hosts, David and Dawn were very responsive and were super helpful with all of our needs. The views at this property makes you want to stay and never leave. It is only a short drive from downtown Makawao, which has great shops and restaurants and very close to Paia as well. We will be staying here again on our next visit! ##### Michael W.

Lushly landscaped, tastefully decorated and provisioned with all the comforts of home. Dawn is a gracious host. ##### James S. Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Scott S.

The view is amazing. It is a bit cooler up island than down at the beach, maybe 5-10 degrees cooler than the beach. I really enjoyed the outdoor shower with a view. Very private and quiet. Very responsive host and check in/out could not have been easier. ##### Scott S. Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diana W.

It’s nice to get away from the hustle and bustle of the touristed areas. Upcountry is so pretty and lush. We hiked five minutes away. Got to eat in some really great upcountry restaurants. Found a new beach that is gorgeous, Baby Beach. It’s not for everyone. There is a very windy, steep road of about 15 minutes up from Makawao. We got used to it and it’s pretty. The jungalows’s decor is really pretty and it has all you need. Only downside is there are steep stairs leading up to the bedroom. No fun going downstairs to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. But it still is a very special and unique place. We enjoyed it very much. ##### Diana W.

Magical in a sense. The scope of what it has to offer can’t be put into words. But if you want a breathtaking experience just book it. David is fantastic. Mahalo! ##### Sheldon J.

My wife walked through the door and immediately said “cancel all plans for our stay, we’re not leaving this place.” Beautiful views and the quietude was just what we were looking for in getting away from the busy life, kids and dogs for a quick getaway. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Paniolo Greens At Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Paniolo-Greens-At-Waikoloa.h599417.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Bali Hai Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Princeville-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Bali-Hai-Villas.h1744108.Hotel-Information) > > [Waimea Plantation Cottages, a Coast Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Waimea-Hotels-Waimea-Plantation-Cottages.h52880.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Kauaʻi Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-OUTRIGGER-Kauai-Beach-Resort-Spa.h583022.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Ocean Tower Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Ocean-Tower-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h28763131.Hotel-Information) > > [Waikoloa Beach Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Waikoloa-Beach-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h22600.Hotel-Information) > > [Sugar Beach Resort - Maui Condo & Home](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Sugar-Beach-Resort-Maui-Condo-Home.h101695.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Lanai](https://www.expedia.ca/Lanai-City-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Lanai.h2980.Hotel-Information) > > [Mauna Kea Beach Hotel, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Mauna-Kea-Beach-Hotel.h34873.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Kauai Wailua Bay, HI](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Kauai-Wailua-Bay.h25719.Hotel-Information) > > [Hana-Maui Resort, a Destination by Hyatt Residence](https://www.expedia.ca/Hana-Hotels-Hana-Maui-Resort.h933.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Hapuna Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-The-Westin-Hapuna-Beach-Resort.h34872.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Sonesta Kaua'i Resort Lihue](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Royal-Sonesta-Kauai-Resort-Lihue.h8373.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kahului-Hotels-Maui-Beach-Hotel.h18554.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Kings’ Land Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Kings-Land-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h2303745.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [Castle Kama'ole Sands](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Castle-Kamaole-Sands.h21083.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairway Villas Waikoloa by OUTRIGGER](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Fairway-Villas-Waikoloa-By-OUTRIGGER.h914142.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Beach Vacation Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Beach-Vacation-Club.h2457.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Kaua'i Beach Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Marriotts-Kauai-Beach-Club.h1767377.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Kamaole - Maui Condo & Home](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Kamaole-Maui-Condo-Home.h101693.Hotel-Information) > > [Lahaina Shores](https://www.expedia.ca/Lahaina-Hotels-Lahaina-Shores-Beach-Resort.h84901.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Maui Bay Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Bay-Villas-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h3001.Hotel-Information) > > [Aston Maui Hill](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Aston-Maui-Hill.h24554.Hotel-Information) > > [Mauna Lani, Auberge Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Mauna-Lani.h426160.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Oahu North Shore](https://www.expedia.ca/Laie-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Oahu-North-Shore.h9727677.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Coast Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Coast-Hotel.h28645.Hotel-Information) > > [Aston at the Maui Banyan](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Aston-At-The-Maui-Banyan.h22568.Hotel-Information) > > [Hanalei Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Princeville-Hotels-Hanalei-Bay-Resort.h460385.Hotel-Information)
