This was the most amazing experience. We got to live right in the jungle and experience so much beauty Maui has to offer. The host was so kind and easy to communicate with. This stay made our honeymoon so magical and we cannot wait to come back one day. Thank you for everything during our stay, it was incredible!

This is an incredible home base for everything special Maui has to offer. On site laundry makes it homey and comfortable leg of any long vacation. Some great local food within a quick 5-15 minute drive and major cities/towns within 20-30 minutes.

Such a beautiful place! You’re truly tucked away in the jungle, surrounded by lush greenery and stunning views. We absolutely loved the seclusion and authentic Hawaiian experience!A few helpful tips for future guests: The pool pictured is not directly behind Star Lookout but is shared with other rentals on the property and accessible via a walkway. I had assumed it was located in the backyard based on the photos, so I wanted to clarify! We also highly recommend arriving during daylight hours, especially if it’s your first time in Hawaii. We arrived at night, and navigating the dark, narrow, winding roads was a little intimidating. The property is tucked quite far back, so trust the directions provided by the hosts, even if it feels like you’ve been driving for a while!You’re definitely off the beaten path, with most restaurants and attractions 30–40 minutes away and other parts of the island 1–1.5 hours away. Cell reception is limited, so we recommend entering your destination into your GPS before heading out and saving your return route while you have service. Thankfully, the Wi-Fi at the property works great!The hosts were wonderful, very responsive, and quick to help with anything we needed. If you don’t mind driving and love being surrounded by nature, this place is absolutely worth it! We loved our stay and would definitely return when we’re back in Maui!

Tranquil weekend getaway

My friends and I stayed for a girl's weekend and wanted peace and tranquility. We had a fantastic time and Kai was outstanding before and throughout our stay! The extra touch of welcome goodies and Aloha throughout our stay was terrific. As was the hot tub, perfect for sore muscles after our Haleakala hike!

Quaint Stay Away from Everything

If you're looking for a little hideaway outside of the hustle and bustle this is the place for you. My husband and I loved it here and would come back again. But if you're looking to be close to restaurants and away from chickens that start crowing before the sun rises you may want to look elsewhere.

Such a great place!

We had an absolute wonderful time in the Rainbow Lookout. The welcoming details and the way the cottage was prepared for our visit was beyond belief. Fresh eggs and awesome bread in the fridge made my wife want to make breakfast every day! The property itself is wonderful and so lush. Plenty of privacy and a great space. It was very windy and rainy while we visited but I think that actually made it more fun! Owner is very responsive, hot tub was great, plenty of laundry facilities, I could go on - just everything was exceptional!

Off the Beaten Path

Exceptionally clean & well cared for by obviously conscientious hosts. Light and airy wood-framed cottage w/ unusual layout surrounded by lush, mature landscaping. No real kitchen to speak of but large 3-door fridge w/ ice maker, kitchen sink, dishwasher & assortment of countertop appliances, plus a 2-burner gas BBQ grill outside (w/ a roof over it). Definitely off the beaten path; about 25 minutes east of Paia in a non-tourist area. Great place to just go and chill out.

Fun in the jungle

Enjoyed being in the middle of the road to Hāna, close to the Twin Falls. We drove the road to Hana starting at 5am, we are on eastern US time, which was nice to see the sunrise and have no traffic. We first visited the black sand beach. Hiked the Pīpīwai trail and headed back. Stopped in Keanea at Kōkī beach for the huli huli chicken lunch which was fantastic and so gourmet! Although there was a sprinkle every day, we avoided getting wet pretty easily. It only lasts a few minutes most of the time! I appreciated being able to do laundry since I packed light.The property was cute and well maintained. The treats and flowers upon arrival felt really special. And I enjoyed the chickens (felt like home) despite the roosters wake up call. Chicken are everywhere in Maui!! Thank you for making our time in Maui special.

The cottage was a very lovely and private place to stay. The best Hawaiian rainforest experience possible without having to live in a tent. Easy off season drive to the beaches. Loved it and would stay again.

Peaceful, serene and secluded

An unbelievable gem, given my criteria in identifying a suitable place to stay on Maui. Yes, I like nice beaches, but I am far more interested in staying at a place away from the crowds, low density, discreet, lush and which hearkens a bit back to old Hawaii. This place checks all the boxes. During our stay, it was often difficult to tell if anyone else was staying there with us. The pool was empty every time we went there, and it was refreshing to come back from a daily excursion and take a cool dip. The beds were comfortable and we were able to cook most everything we wanted to in the kitchen. The hot tub was an extra bonus - it was clean and worked flawlessly. On top of all that, and probably best of all, our host Sharyn was absolutely wonderful, warm, very attentive and communicative to our inquiries, yet completely out of sight, to the extent that we invited her over to chat a bit one evening. All in all, a perfect stay, and a place I would definitely return to when in Maui again!

Loved everything about our stay

Wonderful, peaceful paradise. If you've stayed in Lahaina or Kaanapali and were horrified by the overcrowding and sterility, this place is the remedy. Spotlessly clean when we arrived and SO MANY cute touches. You might see some ants or lizards inside...but that's how it should be in Hawaii! The pool is wonderful and the property was incredibly cool. We didn't have any problems without a full kitchen - there is a hot plate and microwave etc. All in all - highly recommend this place!!!

I loved every moment at Huelo Point Lookout

I feel so lucky to have discovered this beautiful enclave on Maui. I stayed in the Rainbow House for a week and loved every moment spent there. The grounds are beautiful—impeccably kept with a special water feature to enjoy in the morning with my coffee. The house felt so very private and I especially loved star gazing from the hot tub at night. I was impressed with the cleanliness of the space and the charming little details throughout. I felt so welcomed on the day I arrived. Sharyn was attentive, ensuring that I had everything I needed as well as offering advice about the dining in the area. The kitchen was well-equipped with what I needed to cook at "home". When I need another respite from the bustle of Honolulu, I will most certainly visit Huelo Point Lookout again.

Private retreat in tropical environment

We enjoyed the remote cottage in the tropical environment very much. The cottage is very cosy with huge private garden (hammock between two coconut trees!), private hot tub and outdoor shower -- we loved it although there is an indoor shower as well. The kitchen was very clean and was well equipped with extraordinarily high-quality equipment (great). The covered outdoor stove was nice and kept cooking odors out of the building. On arrival we found all rooms perfectly decorated with fresh flowers, white wine, bread, eggs from their own chickens, etc in the refridgerator, and a fruit basket in the kitchen. The dining table was nicely prepared. Guests are invited to pick bananas which were grown in the garden. The host Sharyn is very friendly and helpful. The cottage lies in a remote area, you have to drive approx. 30 min on the winding Hana highway to reach Pa'ia. The famous dining restaurant Mama's Fish House and the surfer hot spot Ho'opika are about 20 min by car from the cottage. We booked some boat trips from Lahaina which needs a drive of about 75-90 min, depending on the traffick which was high in February. Nevertheless, we liked the privacy far away from the huge hotel complexes at the other coast, as well as the familiar and warm atmosphere.

PERFECTION to the MAX!

This was the exact place that my husband and I were looking for. We wanted to escape to Maui, but so many of the accommodates are large hotels are condos. When we arrived the cottage to set with welcome treats and a lovely bottle of wine. The property is beautiful, with a great pool. We were told that there were other guest during our stay but we did not see anyone but once and had the pool to ourselves!. We love listening to the night storms roll in on the tin roof, and wake to the beautiful sunrises. We will definitely be back!!! Maybe even making it a family trip renting out a couple of the cottages/house.

What total sweethearts (literally, as this, I know, was a special honeymoon trip for you). I love it when guests are totally appreciative of our beautiful surroundings and our 'away-from-it-all' feel! Thank you both, too, for leaving the cottage so beautiful when you left ... and please, do come back for a special anniversary! Big hugs Sharyn & Jeff your hosts Huelo Pt Lookout ... a romantic retreat ...
