This unique log house features 5 spacious bedrooms, making it ideal for both intimate romantic retreats and larger group vacations. Although you may feel worlds away from the hustle and bustle, you are just 20 minutes from the airport and only 2 miles from local shops and restaurants.

Set on an expansive gated property of 8.5 acres, you’ll be surrounded by lush tropical beauty, with access to magnificent fruits, vibrant flowers, fresh vegetables, and a working coffee plantation—complete with organic ginger and turmeric.

On the lower level, enjoy the comfort of a king-sized studio suite (which can be arranged as two twins) and an additional bedroom that includes a queen bed, twin trundle bed, and laundry facilities.

You’ll appreciate the close proximity to attractions like The Sacred Garden, which features tranquil walking labyrinths, succulent gardens, and meditation spaces.

Summary: A unique setting pretty close to Paia. Beautiful property. Felt like our experience was more 'authentic Maui' than the resorts. Eve was great to work with! Very adequate and a good 'home base' for our group of 8 to explore especially the north and east sides of the island.
