We enjoyed waking up to a 180 degree of the ocean and beautiful surroundings. It was so peaceful and exactly what we were hoping for in a more relaxed vacation. We did not use the outdoor kitchen so cannot speak to preparing food at the unit attached to the host's house, but wanted to recommend planning ahead for meals given the more remote location (whether you're making yourself with the available camping stove or making a run into town). Tasty food trucks and restaurants in Hana (about a 30 minute drive) and very close to Haleakala National Park. Thank you Mercury and Sam for the delightful stay! ##### Chelsey W.

Sam and Mercury were excellent hosts and provided everything we needed. The patio and outdoor kitchen were very well kept and fun to use! We even got to meet their neighbors rescue horses and feed them mangos which was a magical surprise. We will most definitely be back, thank you Sam and Mercury for everything :) ##### Shelby S.

This is not the Ritz-Carlton, or even the Marriott. It's better. It's glamping of the highest order. If you're trying to get away from it all and clear your mind of the garbage, you couldn't ask for a better place. ##### Carl O.

This was a great stay for our first time on the island and right after our wedding. A great way to unwind. The garden and yard is beautiful and we had a great time walking in the serenity garden and taking small strolls in the yard. Beautiful place for R&R. Kitchen was great to have on the deck and enjoy a peaceful morning. Mercury is a great host and checked in to make sure we had everything, we are sorry we missed her on the way out but she is very kind and polite. Both my wife and I loved this space!

Mercury and Sam were the perfect hosts. We could not have imagined a better trip. They made everything so comfortable and welcoming. We had some necessities provided for us (shampoo, eggs, coffee, etc) which was truly amazing to have available since we arrived late on New Year’s Eve and weren’t planning on a supply run until January 2nd (when most stores would be open). All information about our stay was provided to us through the VRBO app before we arrived and in communications within the property. There were many books, games, a television with all the good stations, and fast internet if we ever got bored of looking at the view (ha). We ate avocados, tangerines, and bananas from the property’s trees (after asking if it was ok). There were several animals and birds on and around the property we enjoyed watching. The landscaping Mercury and Sam have on the property is absolutely beautiful! I discovered at least one new plant every day. We witnessed the sunrise every day on one side of the property and the sunset on the other side.They let us know that ensuring we had all the privacy we needed was the top priority. We opted to ask questions about the area and they were more than happy to give us tips, recommendations, and even a few stories about Hāna and Kipahulu. Thank you Mercury and Sam! We are trying to decide on dates to come back ##### Jeanne E.

Well I won, because this is the most beautiful place we have ever been, and every aspect of our stay was beyond our expectations. The room itself has two walls of windows with a built in XXXL comfy bed. The bathroom is spacious and decked out for royalty. The outdoor kitchen was surprisingly well stocked with this and that to enhance whatever you are cooking. The grounds are spectacular with ocean views, horses, sunrise and sunset, starry nights, fruit trees, water feature, outdoor bathtub and shower, flowers and art everywhere. Mercury was a perfect host. She was so warm and welcoming and made sure everything was just right. There were beautiful botanical arrangements all over the room to make everything feel even more special. The journey there is amazing, driving from the "Road to Hana" or the back side of Hana Highway; I definitely recommend driving the full loop. There is a lot to do around here if you like walking in nature and ocean swimming. Which you must, if you are coming to Maui! ##### Emily R. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Robert J. 28 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, location #### Cute but uncomfortable to sleep in We showed up at this beautiful property and found the instructions awkward. There is a small house straight in front that the owner lives in. To the right is a house the daughter lives in, and the studio apartment vrbo is attached to that home (in the front part). Our vehicle got stuck in the grass which hasn't been cut for awhile, definitely not the manuicured lawn seen in the photos, but rather overgrown gardens and yard. The walkway is right next to the daughter's home. She's very pleasant, but there is a shared wall, and even a doorway between the two living quarters, so to me it doesn't seem like a private getaway for newlyweds. She told us to read the rules, which seemed odd, maybe calling it a guide to where things were would have seemed more friendly. The lanai kitchen is stocked well, and there were fresh eggs and other items in the fridge, but we didn't know if they belonged to the daughter or if they were meant for us. The shower is amazing. At first it was odd since there's no curtain, but the owners were no where insight, so we felt safe to shower. The bed was the worst part because of my husband's hip problem. Its like an old waterbed frame with a two piece futon mattress inside..really huge, but the pads were placed so that you'd have the crack between pads at an uncomfortable spot no matter where you lay. And the wooden frame was painfull getting in out out of the bed. If you don't mind the bed or owner right there, its nice. ##### Robert J.

While the deck is connected to Mercury’s home, the stay is super private. Sam and Mercury were generous and kind with provisions, local recommendations and fruit from their property. We were treated with a rainbow the first and last night of our stay! Loved all the critter noises (frogs, birds, etc), sleeping with the open air and waking up to the sunrise. Cooking on the outdoor kitchen was a dream. Great walking distance (1m) to a local farmstand with coffee, fresh fruit and baked treats. Perfect base camp for local trips to National Park, Hamoa Beach, and Black Sands. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4d24fbe4-19b2-4d4c-bf2c-63146aeefeb0-1750037672975.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4f4b0287-835d-46cb-89d6-18119db27b89-1750037671806.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/feb206f9-7b27-435f-82d3-00a7c96d3a76-1750037672953.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b83551ac-8fe6-4511-bd94-53bc7a1508f6-1750037672875.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Bridget D.

Eating option are limited so need to pack in some groceries. Beautiful, relaxing setting! ##### Ed W.

They are so welcoming to all guests and give you all the privacy during your stay but are there to help with anything you could possibly need. The accommodations are too beautiful for pictures and so serene and peaceful. It is a little slice of heaven. The location is also perfect for any adventures you want to go on in the Hāna region. We would happily stay here again in a heartbeat if we got the chance. ##### Kayli S.

Their property is a gem in a reclusive spot that offered all of the privacy that we could have asked for. The outdoor kitchen was perfect for cooking meals. And as someone who cooks often, having sharpened knives is such a small detail that makes a world of difference, and these ladies did not disappoint. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. ##### Mark H.

Our stay was great! If you are planning on doing the road to Hana this is a great way to take your time doing it without having to drive so much on one day. We stayed a couple nights here and we're able to go to the national park and chill at the property one day and then do the road to Hana backwards on our way back to our other resort. The the property is beautiful and we really enjoyed the amazing sunset. Their is a little kitchen outside on the deck which made making our meals very fun. Mercury, the daughter, lives right next to where you stay. You're place is separate, but is connected to her house. She will be around, but gives you privacy and will just check in on you once or twice . She's very nice and a good host! ##### Jadon B. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025
