Heaven on Earth in Upcountry Maui

Welcome to The Star Lookout, a magical vacation cottage in Maui's Upcountry. Experience a taste of 'Old Hawaii' in our quiet, restful perch with privacy, sweeping views, magnificent sunsets, and oodles of stars. We are located at 622 Thompson Road, Kula, HI 96790.

The Star Lookout is the perfect retreat for nature lovers, star gazers, writers, outdoor enthusiasts, honeymooners, and well, just about anyone wanting to get away from it all. The Star Lookout is a one-in-a-million property with unobstructed views of both shores of Maui. To the south, the community of Kihei and glimpses of neighboring islands. To the north, Kahului and views of north shore beaches and sugar cane fields. The entire property is surrounded by pasture with grazing cattle and wild Axis deer. We have two pet sheep in our own small pasture, and there are resident cats that may try to keep you company on the lanai!

We are a permitted, legal vacation cottage as of April, 2009:
Ordinance #3627
Bill No. 14; CP 2002/0009
