Owners live on property.
Aloha, sorry but at this time we are not hosting to families with children younger than 16. Mahalo.
This is a NO SMOKING property. No smoking is allowed any where upon the property.
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.
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.
Your one bedroom B&B Jungalow cottage also shares the property with our 3/2 Pualani Hale. You can see that listing here:

In order to respect each others privacy while using the facilities, we have adopted the use of a shared calendar app. When reserving use of the pool, hot tub and sauna, it is strongly recommended we all use it.
You can reserve your private time as desired or leave a note for others to join if you don’t mind company.
We do attract a lot of honeymooners and couples ...

Dream location. The photos in the listing are very nice but being there was special in so many unexpected ways. Constant new discoveries of beauty in sight and sound. The amenities were everything we needed. Dave and Dawn were the most interesting and coolest hosts. Never intrusive but there if you needed them. They have created a sanctuary that visitors will respect, enjoy immensely and remember long after they leave.

We enjoyed our stay very much. The sunset views were breathtaking, the yard is full of color and birds. The bed and couch are very comfortable. We enjoyed the hot tub on a foggy night- the ambiance was very cool. Our host is very kind and responsive.

We loved our stay in the Jungalow and did not want to leave. The views are spectacular. You can see the entire valley, the north shore, the south shore and the West Maui Mountains all at once. The sunsets were jaw dropping. They are different when you see them from 3000 feet up on the side of Haleakala. We used the pool, the hot tub and the sauna a lot. It is a real pool that you can swim laps in. And the hot tub is actually hot, as is the sauna. It was our private spa to use whenever we wanted. I swam every morning and evening. The grounds are covered in gardens and there are countless birds. You do not hear or see any neighbors. It cools off at night to an ideal sleeping temperature. The jungalow is well furnished and has everything you need for 2 people. Staying up country is the best and unlike anything else in Maui. Would 100% come here again.

Nestled on the side of the mountain, the views from every room are amazing. 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.

The pictures in the listing don't do it justice. One of the most beautiful vacation rentals we stayed at.

Our stay in the upcountry Jungalow was amazing. 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!

Everything as advertised, including the reviews. 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.

This quiet getaway is simply unbelievable. 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!

Pix online are accurate, but still don't do justice to the actual experience. Great views, quiet; attentive, caring owners. Excellent! Highly recommend & would stay here again.

I couldn’t be more pleased with the location of this property. It sits on the west side of Haleakala with a 3000 foot elevated sunset view of green rolling hillside pastureland, the island’s central valley, West Mountain, Kahului and both North and South Pacific shores. The road used to access the “Jungalow” is several miles uphill from Makawao on a small winding road with very little traffic. Makawao is a very special little town with some of the most unique shops on the island. Its history is that of ranching and farming and still exhibits that culture. It is very close (by mainland standards) to many good restaurants, grocery stores, and natural sites.
The property itself is a few hundred yards (and out of site) from the main road and is primarily composed of two rental properties along with the owner’s home. There are several shared facilities including trails, pool, hot tub, sauna, and parking. Although the Jungalow is detached from the others, there was occasionally foot traffic and activity nearby. Privacy was generally helped by a privacy hedge out the west-facing window.
This cottage was a very nice blend of classic construction (maybe timber?) with modern updated features. This included new appliances, lighting, flooring, cabinetry, plumbing, handrails, window treatments, bedding and a gas barbeque pit. The owners have obviously spent some thought and time upgrading, decorating and maintaining the facilities. It was already stocked with many items I thought I needed to bring. All in all, it was very comfortable, stylish and functional with stunning views. And the cats made me feel right at home. It is hard to list any negatives for this rental. There are only a couple of items to note. The TV loft, although comfortable when you get there and the flat screen is very good, the clearance at the top of the stairs is only around 4 and a half feet (that’s a guess) making it a bit awkward to enter and exit if you’re, say, 6 foot or taller. And they might want to plane the sticky door on the second level. It was very difficult to open.
