This unique and romantic two story, one bedroom house is nestled in a mango tree. The house is an A-frame structure with high ceilings and skylights making it bright and airy. It is located less than a mile from the bohemian town of Paia and ALL of the North Shore beaches. The closest beach access is Kuau Beach, Kuau point, three blocks, and Hookipa Beach less than a mile.
The second floor bedroom has a queen size bed with French doors that open up to the private lanai and a window AC unit.The main floor has a living area with a full size futon/couch, a full kitchen and a marble tile bathroom with a jetted tub and shower combination. You can see just a small sliver of ocean from the second floor lanai, but we do not call it an ocean view. There is a patio just outside the house, with an outdoor grill, outdoor shower to remove the sand from your day at the beach and your own private parking area.
If you have a larger group, our Green Turtle House is on the same property and can be rented as a two bedroom house. Please see listing: VRBO #720946
We are a certified vacation rental permit #2017/0001. ...

Overall we had a fantastic stay at the Gingerbread House. We loved Paia town and the surrounding areas. The house is clean, check in and communication was great, and the guidebook found in the house is so thoughtful-we used and loved all the recs and info! We also enjoyed the proximity to the Road to Hana, Haiku, and Makawao. Additionally, the house is easy to find and property and amenities like outdoor space and laundry were all great.
Now a few things I wish I had known...The description is accurate in terms of distances, but this house is not really walkable to anything. The highway has no sidewalk and a super narrow shoulder, so this felt unsafe on the one walk we attempted. If you stay here, you'll definitely want a car even to make it to Paia or the closest beach. The other thing is that the bathroom is sunken down from the main level of the house and has a lot of slippery tile. Since this house has 3 levels, I would definitely not recommend it for anyone who struggles with balance or has mobility issues. Overall, the house is charming, but it is small and very open and the bathroom is dated and far from the main bedroom. We stayed with our 7-year-old (3 people total) and it felt very small. That said, if it is your goal to be out and explore, this is a good spot to land and is close to many awesome things.

Everything was absolutely perfect! Great location, easy to get to anywhere on the island! Feels secluded but you can walk to the closest public beach within 6 minutes! We had an amazing stay at the cute Gingerbread House in Paia Town! ❤️

Very nice place in a convenient location away from the touristy side. We stayed in February for a little over a week and loved it. Thank you.

Very cute little place, really nice for the two of us to get away. The ocean breezes made it so nice to sit outside, and the indoors was cute and cozy. It was the perfect base to explore Paia, or walk 10 minutes the other way to watch the windsurfers.
