The house was beautiful, view spectacular, and owner was super responsive and accommodating. We will definitely be back and will recommend Pookela Paradise to everyone heading to Maui

Beautiful Views!
Great views out the front room window, dining room and deck. Close to Maui family so that was a huge plus!
I travel to Hawaii every year or so to visit family and have not had great experiences at vacation rentals there. I decided to try again and hit the jackpot with this place. It was clean, spacious, and, very importantly for me, had an extremely comfortable bed. It was only me, but it's so large and spacious that it would be of fantastic value for a small group or family. The view from the dining room and lanai was fantastic, the neighborhood quiet, and it's within walking distance to one of my favorite places in Hawaii, the village of Makawao. The host, Mark, was extremely accommodating and kind. The next time I go back to Maui, this place is at the top of my list.
Comfortable house great location Just a couple blocks from the heart of Mukawao With plenty of good restaurants easily available. Owner was extremely responsive And accommodating. But highly recommend this place as a base for upcountry as well as north shore beaches
was a great place to come back and relax after our day of adventuring. Was centrally located to do all the things we wanted to do. The dinner table was spacious and we played board games there every night with the games we brought.
Property was as advertised , could not have found a better property, I have visited Maui Three times over the last 25 years , this is a great property for anyone who wants a nice quiet ( except for the roosters,which are all over the Island) but we loved the property to want to come back
Beautiful views, quiet, great location. Walking distance from downtown Makawao. Great light, lots of big windows. Comfy bed and furniture. Well appointed. Nice owner.

Beautiful, peaceful, great location!
Loved this slice of Paradise including Miss Kitty (neighbors social cat) who greeted us at our car before and after every adventure. We wanted to stay away from the sea of humanity this time and explore more of the interior of the island. The house was comfy and well equipped and placed us closer to Haleakala and the Lavendar Farm, as well as great eats in Haiku. Makawao is charming and has everything you need including a great market. I would definitely stay here again!
It was a fantastic stay here in Makawa. My friends and I are here celebrating a big birthday and home was just perfect for us. The views are incredible. The weather in Makawao is so cool. In the evenings you just never need an air conditioning.
We met Mark the owner, who was super nice and accommodating. I will come back here with my family again if it’s available.
Our stay on Maui was great in big part because of our booking at Pookela Paradise. Mark was very easy to communicate with and provided a very nice place for us to stay. The house is well set up and has great views. It has all the things we needed and is in a perfect location as long as you have a car to get around the island. We were even able to store our bags on the last day so that we could take off for the day and not worry about what was in our car all day at the beach. Thanks, would love to stay here again another time.
Great property. Walking distance to historic Makawao. Beautiful view of the mountains and bay from the deck and dining area, great sunsets. Full kitchen. Laundry access is a plus! Comfy beds. Overall it was nice staying in a neighborhood. Only downside is the noise of the neighborhood: rosters crowing a lot of the night, dogs barking, etc. So just bring ear plugs.

Pookela Paradise
The house is beautiful but there is a house being built next to it on the property with all the attending noise and bad smells. The neighborhood is also quite noisy. The house was not very well supplied. The owner is on site and very friendly.
Maui is magical no matter what, and we all had a great time.
