This was our third time staying at the cottage. It is out of the way and provides the peace we need. The cottage is beautiful, and the surrounding are serene.

This is our second time at Hanks. It was as beautiful as the first time. Hank is such a wonderful guy who would bring me lettuce and lemons from his yard. Love the privacy of the place and Haiku is such a great time. Close to beaches , Paia Ana Makawao.

This unit is fabulous. We stayed for 2 weeks due to the great stay we had last year. Hank is a terrific host , he has thought of every need you could possible have. Perfect getaway for everyday life. Mahalo Hank

Peaceful, serene, tastefully appointed. Incredible setting. Every need anticipated. Delightful owner. What more can we say?

Property was as advertised- the host Hank was great! We hated to leave. It is centrally located to island activities. The atmosphere is like your in a tropical paradise- with a great view ! Recommend to any looking for private- peaceful place!

We were looking for a private place to stay away from the resorts and we found just that. Hank was more than kind. The cottage was perfect for the two of us. We loved the surrounding community and probably would have never found the local charm without staying here. We did not want to leave.

The property is gorgeous!! Beautiful views. Nice quiet home to relax and enjoy the Haiku area.

We absolutely LOVED our time at the Cottage in Haiku. It is all about location, location, location. Thank you Hank our Holidays were so special because of you. 😊 Great food at Colleens (Pizza is amazing-served after 4 pm). J & J

Lovely home and location. Private, gorgeous gardens and foliage surrounding, excellent attention to details, outdoor showers unique and refreshing, the close village of Haiku adorable and great restaurants, and very helpful owner next door. Highly recommend.

This cottage is magical - so private, relaxing, and lovely. Hank was a wonderful host - there when we needed him and gave us privacy when we wanted it. The cottage is beautifully situated, overlooking a gulch with sweeping views of the ocean in the distance. The location is convenient to much of Maui, the beaches, upcountry, and the Road to Hana were nearby. It was a perfect place to spend a week - I only wish would could have stayed longer!

STOP LOOKING AND BOOK THIS PLACE!!! Hank’s cottage in Haiku is the best of everything, a world away but easy access to the best of Maui. Very secluded and private but also minutes from Haiku town. We stayed here 5 nights and wished our entire 10 days was spent in Haiku. The cottage is in pristine condition and looks even better than the pictures. Hank provides everything you could need and more: beach towels and chairs, coolers, shade umbrella, bamboo mats, and masks and snorkels, etc. There is even a yoga mat! The bathroom is stocked with all the basic toiletries and even extras that guests have left behind like sunscreen, aloe, body lotion, etc. Outside is the tub, laundry area and outdoor shower, all necessary supplies are ready for your use. Although we did not cook, the kitchen is well appointed. Hank even provides a snack basket with fresh fruit and flowers from his property and plenty of snacks. If you are lucky you will meet his cat Max! Our favorite things to do and see: Ho’okipa beach and lookout, Secret Beach, Baby Beach and Pa’ia town. Massages at Ashiatsu Massage & Wellness on Baldwin Street. Golf at Pukalani CC and dinner at Kula Bistro, Mama’s Fish House, Nuka and Pa’ia Fish Market. Breakfast at Jaws Country Store and Colleen’s. Hank is a great host and takes pride in his property, we feel lucky to have stayed here and met him. We will be back!

This property is a dream! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will absolutely be back. This is a unique cottage in a quiet neighborhood away from the tourist scene. However it is a short drive to everything you want to do in Maui! The quiet and waking up to song birds and sunrise every day was so relaxing. An unobstructed view of the bay and west Maui- can’t beat it! The restaurants and grocery store 5 min away are so great! The owner leaves awesome fruit for you to enjoy and gives you complete privacy. Stay here- you will love it!

We loved our stay and the property! Loved the sound of nature and rain at night.

We really enjoyed our stay at this property! The views were great and the location was fairly central for our island adventures. We had pretty much everything we needed there. Loved that they had night lights, beach chairs, soft sided coolers, chip clips, and lots of other little touches that most rentals don’t have. It did get a bit warm in there at times, but the 3 ceiling fans and Vornado fan helped. The tub on the lanai was great for cool nights and early morning soaks while listening to a variety of birds. There’s chickens everywhere on Maui and the roosters will crow a lot! We loved seeing all the geckos and lizards on the property. One night we saw a large buck (deer) as we returned from dinner. We loved the privacy here and we were still a short drive from the beach, restaurants, shopping, groceries, and other activities. The bed was really comfy but the pillows were just ok. The outdoor shower was great to rinse sand off and the indoor shower was really nice with good water pressure. Hank was a great host and we would stay here again.

We loved our stay at the cottage. Hank was wonderful with his recommendations and accommodations. We loved house peaceful and serene the cottage was! We also loved the local restaurant Colleen’s and ate there 3 times during our 1 week stay! We highly recommend the miso mushroom starter! We hope to come back to this cottage in the future! Mahalo

We spent an entire week here, and every minute was bliss. Hank is a perfect host. His line of communication before and during the stay was friendly and helpful, both online and in person. The property is even better than the beautiful photos on the site portray. The king-size bed is super comfortable. The couple's outdoor shower and the extra large tub on the porch both have views to die for and the privacy is complete. The location was perfect for us to explore the whole island and to hide out when we just wanted to hang and chill. Which we did. A lot. We were so at home here. We can't recommend this cottage enough.

We had an amazing week at the Cottage. Quiet, close to the town of Haiku and some of the best Sushi on the island. Hank is a great host, his garden and the grounds around the cottage are beautiful. We will definitely be back. My wife wants to install an outdoor shower now!

This cottage is the perfect spot for couples. It’s private, yet still close to fantastic restaurants, beaches, and excursion spots. We were so grateful that we chose to stay here over a more popular (and busier) location. We’d also like to give Hank 5 stars! The cottage was fully stocked, no detail overlooked, and all of his recommendations were spot on.

We cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed our 8 nights here in this Upcountry gem. Welcome basket included fresh fruit from the property and it never seemed to run out with fresh fruit showing up throughout our stay. The views were second to none and only noise was the wildlife and was very private. Location was great giving you a good starting point to all parts of the island. Hank was a great host, as was this cottage. 10/10.

Hank does an immaculate job of maintaining this ocean view property. The landscaping around the cottage is gorgeous with many beautiful flowers and freshly grown fruit and vegetables from Hank's garden that he offered for us at any time during our stay. We spent quite a few morning and afternoons just sitting on the lanai enjoying the view and the weather. One of the most alluring aspects of this place was that it felt very private because of how the landscaping is done, which was a huge plus for us over the resort/condo feel of most places in West and South Maui. The Haiku-Pauwela and Paia areas nearby were some of our favorites of the whole trip! During our July visit, it stayed fairly cool a majority of the time with temperatures heating up slightly towards the afternoons but there was nearly always a cool breeze and occasional rain to help. The owner is extremely accommodating and was very helpful with providing clear directions for the property. The check in and check out process was a breeze as well. Highly recommend!!!

Really liked staying here , it's out goto for Maui

Our third stay at the cottage was just as wonderful and relaxing as our first back in 2019. The place is beautiful and off the beaten path and we'll definitely be back for a fourth time in the next year or so. Highly recommend if you're looking for something different from the resort atmosphere.

This property is an absolute must for a honeymoon - a secluded, beautiful, unique property with a view of the ocean! This is a spot we hope to come back to in the future! Far enough from people to enjoy the privacy but close enough to beautiful little towns and more importantly a Raising Canes to make this a truly amazing location! Hank is amazing to meet and spend some time chatting with - such a cool life! His hard work on the beautiful property shows!

My favorite days of our stay in Maui were the ones where we stayed at the cottage the whole day … first by our own choice, then on a day that it rained all day. It is like living in a garden paradise. We are definitely going to be back as soon as we can.

This place was amazing!! The scenery is beautiful. You can see the mountains and oceans every morning and night! Great location and Hank is the nicest host you can imagine! Let me pick lemons and oranges right from the property! The place was immaculate and had everything you could need. Just booked for next year!

Beautiful view, private, comfortable

wonderful private space - I would be happy to go back

Wonderful unit perfect setting

We stayed for two weeks and really enjoyed our time. Everything is clean and comfortable (wish we had gotten the brand name of the bed) and the amenities are well stocked. The kitchen has everything you need to cook meals in, though one of the best sushi spots we’ve ever been to is just a few mins away (Nuka). The host was friendly, helpful, and quick to respond. He also shared fresh vegetables from the garden and had a basket of snacks waiting for us when we arrived. The cottage is very private and quiet, off the road a bit and surrounded by the jungle - the views are breathtaking. And you’re in a central spot on the island so it’s easy to get to Lahaina, Kihei, Hana, or up Haleakala. Only heads up (because it doesn’t seem to be in the listing) is that this is a studio, not a 1 bedroom. We both worked from here for two weeks perfectly fine (the internet is strong and there’s a table on the lanai).

I absolutely loved my stay here. It is very peaceful and private place. It feels remote and far away from everything, yet you can get into town for groceries and good restaurants is a few minutes. I would absolutely stay here again and hope to do so soon.

We were here in Maui for our wedding and honeymoon. The property was absolutely beautiful! We really appreciated the privacy. Waking up every morning to the birds calling and roosters crowing was so relaxing. There was fresh fruit for the picking just down the driveway. The outdoor shower and soaking tub were glorious. The views from the lanai were stunning. The bed was comfortable and kitchen was nice.

Wonderfully tranquil and romantic. Absolutely loved the place and Hank was fantastic. Outdoor shower was incredible. Fresh citrus from the land. Highly recommend. Would/will stay again.
