Discover the Peaceful & Private Studio - 12 Acre Hobby Organic Fruit Farm - Beach 10 Minutes Away

Welcome to your sanctuary at the Peaceful & Private Studio - 12 Acre Hobby Organic Fruit Farm - Beach 10 minutes away, nestled in the serene landscape of Haiku, known for its stunning natural beauty. Your clean and cozy 600-sf studio is situated on our tranquil estate, Mana Aina, which translates to 'the power of the earth' in Hawaiian. Embrace the invigorating fresh air from Hana as it caresses the national tropical forest that hugs the side of the dormant Haleakala volcano.

Your studio offers breathtaking views over our sprawling 12 acres of lush parkland, adorned with a rich tapestry of ornamental trees, vibrant tropical plants, seasonal fruit-bearing trees, and colorful flowers. Constructed with robust brick and painted stucco, the studio features elegant tile flooring and high-beam ceilings, ensuring a relaxing environment for your getaway.

The property boasts an enchanting setting, bordered by a 50-acre forest along the ocean side and a lush gulch to the east, complete with a seasonal water stream flowing down from Haleakala’s rain forest, ultimately reaching the famous surf destination of Jaws. In addition, another peaceful 50-acre property lies adjacent to yours, providing additional tranquility.

As you explore our grounds, keep an eye out for the diverse wildlife that thrives here, including geckos and various insects, all part of the vibrant ecosystem nurtured by our organic gardens. For those seeking a meticulously manicured landscape devoid of nature’s small creatures, a stay at one of Maui's luxurious resorts may be more suited to your preferences.

Though immersed in peaceful seclusion, you won't be far from modern conveniences. Within a six-minute drive, indulge in delightful dining options and grocery shopping. For organic aficionados, Mana Foods in Paia is just ten minutes away, and the Pauwela Cannery provides casual breakfast and lunch fare. The Haiku Cannery offers an array of restaurants, including Nuka Sushi and Colleen's Restaurant, where you can savor burgers, pizza, and other local delights. Don’t miss veg-friendly spots like Vegout and the Maui Kombucha Bar.

If you’re visiting during wave season, witnessing the colossal waves at Jaws is a must. Adventurers will find joy in hiking through the Makawao Forest or soaring through the trees at the Piiholo Ranch Zip Line. For some retail therapy, head to Makawao Town for shopping or try Casanova’s for a quick bite, then stroll along the beach in Paia while picking up some groceries at Mana Foods.

Numerous gorgeous beaches await you nearby, such as Hookipa Beach Park, Tavares in Kuau Bay, Paia Bay, Baldwin Beach Park, Baby Beach, Spreckelsville, and Kanaha Beach Park. For a refreshing dip in streams and pools, don't forget to visit Iao Valley, located above Old Wailuku.

Explore the majestic Haleakala volcano, charming Poli Poli, scenic Kula, seek out the breathtaking Twin Falls, and uncover hidden gems like the Commando Hike. We are excited to host you during your stay in Maui and look forward to sharing recommendations for incredible surrounding attractions.

Please remember to bring your drinking water, as we encourage the use of filtered water available by the kitchen sink. Additionally, pack any food or personal items you may require, as we do not replenish supplies after each guest. Kindly avoid cooking fragrant foods without covering pans, as lingering odors can lead to deductions from your security deposit.

While we love sharing our property with guests, please refrain from picking fruits from our trees, as we accommodate over 600 visitors yearly.

The building encompasses three studios that can be rented separately or together, each soundproofed with thick walls and strategically placed entrances to enhance privacy. Your accommodation features a medium-softness memory foam king-sized bed and a full-size sofa bed, perfect for a restful night.

In your private bathroom, you'll find a bathtub, overhead shower, toilet, bidet, and sink, along with towels, toiletries, and other essentials provided for your convenience. Our fully equipped kitchen includes electric burners, an oven, microwave, and all necessary utensils, so you can whip up meals during your stay.

The laundry room is available for your use from 9 am to 7 pm, with detergent to be supplied by you. Enjoy complimentary high-speed internet via SpaceX Starlink, and unwind with streaming options on the smart TV connected to Wi-Fi.

We may have beach chairs, boogie boards, and toys for children available; feel free to check the laundry room during your stay but return them before you depart.

Summary: We decided to stay here as it was closer to the start of the road to Hana and to Haleakala compared to other stays and resorts and it was a great choice. Very clear instructions, great kitchen & appliances options for those who'd want to use it, and we loved the overall ambiance of the place. Partner is already talking about returning for another trip in the future.
