Newly Remodeled - Wonderful space!
This was an easy walk to Makawao and we really enjoyed being upcountry. Nice and cool in the evenings and plenty of space to spread out our water-sports gear in the evenings. Meals on the deck were fabulous; and the entire interior looks to have been remodeled recently - all in really great shape; wonderful beds and bathrooms. Highly recommended!
Awesome, Clean house in a Convenient location!
This house is located in a quiet subdivision with great views and a cool breeze! Comfortable home with all the amenities to help make your stay relaxing and stress free!
Peaceful home in charming Makawao
We loved our 8 day stay in this house. The neighborhood is quiet, peaceful and the home is in a lovely and private setting- close to many splendid day trips to Hana, Haleakala, a great beach in Paia and the awesome town of Paia itself. Staying in this Makawao home, we felt so much more like locals and less like tourists vs. the condo strip in Kihei.
The owner was very accommodating when we needed an early check in.
Our one recommendation would be to supply guests with basic amenities for the kitchen (salt, spices, sugar, paper towels, etc) and wash cloths for the bathroom. Also, the master bed is a bit bouncy and sinking and wasn't too comfortable. A new mattress would be ideal.
I would still recommend this house with its spacious and simple feel. We had a magical time.
A lovely place and a lovely stay!
This was our second (and certainly not last) visit to Maui.
Mark's house was very convenient to pretty much everything we wanted to do and see.
The deck is large and covered, so even when it was raining, we had a comfortable place to sit and enjoy the weather. One thing; there are many spiderwebs along the side of the deck along the roof. Do NOT destroy them. They are Orb Weaver spiders and are completely harmless to people. What they do, however, is keep the place free of mosquitos. So please, leave them be.
The place was quiet and comfortable. The internet goes out from time to time, but you have to remember that Maui is an island in the pacific, nothing is going to be perfect (except the weather ;-) )
If you have the chance, by all means, make staying at Pookela Paradise a priority!
Cozy and comfortable
We enjoyed our stay at Pookela. The house is very well equipped and everything functioned well. Mark was available and friendly. The only downside is that the house lacks a table to eat at.
upcountry hideaway
Comfy three bedroom, two bath upper apartment with ocean view. One bath is "ensuite" other is in the hallway between bedrooms. Third bedroom is more of an office, but has a daybed which looks comfortable enough for sleeping. Office also has a Mac desktop for guest use if you wanted to leave your laptop at home. You can walk to Makawao and it's a short drive to Paia. Paia has a fine natural food store (as big as many in cities on the mainland) with very reasonable prices (even for Hawaii). There is also a Foodland a couple of miles away. Most everything you would need to make this home is provided. The owners kitty came to greet us every morning. She is a very friendly kitty who made me miss my cats less. I would definitely stay here again when visiting Maui.
Map
So close to all the North Shore beaches, attractions, and restaurants! And, perfectly situation between the Hana Highway and Haleakala Highway, two of the major attractions Maui has to offer! Only 10 minutes from Makawao Forest!
