IDEAL GUESTS: returning Maui visitors that want to experience something different than the resort sides of Maui. Or first time guests that want to experience Maui like a local resident away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist areas. We recommend first time guests split their time between 2 sides of the island to have the full island experience. Many guests stay with us to explore the North shore, Hana and Haleakala as we are in the ideal location to these beautiful wonders of maui.
STAYING ON THE NORTH SHORE OF MAUI:
We like to let guests know that we are located on the non-touristy side of the island. All sides of maui are quite different and each season is different on each side of the island as well. Our north shore is great for adventurous guests looking for a quiet getaway in a local residence, while exploring the surrounding towns and north shore of maui. Our surrounding small towns are great for shopping and getting lunch or early dinner as shops close by 5pm and restaurants by 8:30-9pm. Unfortunately we don't have much night life to offer on our side of the island since mostly locals reside here. Our beaches on the north shore are known for surf waves and windsurfing- great for experienced surfers/windsurfers, people watching or sunbathing however many are not usually calm for swimming or snorkeling October thru May. For beginner surfers and all snorkelers we recommend a day trip to the west or south shores where you can rent surf boards/ snorkeling gear, get a lesson and the beaches have sandy bottoms where it is ideal for these activities.
The North shore is located on the edge of the rainforest which makes our area beautifully green and lush this is because we get enough natural rain year round to keep everything green without watering systems. We do have seasons on island and during winter months you can expect more rain on the north shore. We also get natural tradewinds year round that usually keeps our north shore 5-10 degrees cooler ...

Amy was lovely to communicate with as host. The property was centrally located to explore this side of Maui and fit our family well.

We loved our more private vacation home stay on Maui because we were not at a resort and closer to the mountain in Haiku. The short walk to Baked on Maui was perfect and their food was good. Since we like the outdoors and not being part of the pack, the location was perfect.
The house was the right size and very comfortably decorated for our family of four. Amy was always on top of the communication and the story of their vacation home is a great story. We would love to stay again.

This is how you Vrbo. From the welcome gift basket, to the robust home guide, to excellent amenities, and the great neighborhood location, this house does it right. It was a great location for us to visit all parts of the beautiful island of Maui and would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to visit Hana and Haleakala on their stay. We loved it!

The house is a wonderful accommodation for families with three bedrooms, kitchen, and tv (with Netflix!). Appreciated the outdoor shower which I used every day. This is a great location for exploring the north shore of Maui including upcountry Maui which we did—despite it raining for four days straight (late December trip). Found Maui to have many microclimates and while raining in one spot it’s completely dry and sunny 15 minutes down the road.

This home had ample parking (important for our 2 small work trucks), thoughtfully designed interior spaces with all that we needed to cook and prepare meals, and sleep comfortably with 3 people each in a separate room. Our host was easy to communicate with and left detailed information about the home and nearby amenities. The nearby bakery/breakfast place was also a stand-out and only a 3 minute walk from the cottage. We'll definitely plan to book here again in the near future! Thanks again to our hosts - this home is amazing!

We had a wonderful stay at the Surf House. The house was clean, organized and obviously well-maintained. We loved the location and appreciated the ease of communication with the property manager. Would love to come back and stay longer!

My sister and I brought our 69 year old mom to celebrate her birthday. We all didn’t want to leave from this lovely home. We felt secure, comfortable, and at peace. Communication was great when necessary. My sister and I are planning to return with our husbands soon !!!
