Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Amazing! Greg and his family are wonderful. His children are tough, funny, and intelligent, awesome to get to know. Outdoor kitchen is really cute and easy to use, but beware of falling tables. My school group came to stay here with no barriers and it was more than comfortable staying here even if we were camping in the yard.”
“Great place to stay. It is at a walkable distance to the Waipio lookout point. There are many facilities in the lodge to store and cook food, and the rooms are very comfortable and neat. Will be back for sure and strongly recommend to travelers!”
“We spent three nights here at this wonderful hostel in a historic Hawaiian house, enjoying our private room, a shared commons with library, refrigerator, and coffee counter, and large shared bathroom with great water heat and pressure. For more fun, we tried the outdoor shower and toilets as well. Free oranges and macadamia nuts from the tree were a bonus. The back yard has a refreshing view of the sea and Maui. Our hosts were the best experience, sharing so much about the house and themselves. They also guided us to a great hiking adventure in the Waipio Valley only 5 minutes away. We would gladly stay here again.”
“Great place to relax! Yes, there's some noise from upstairs, but all the guests and residents were respectful and quiet overnight. It's so quiet, the view is great and there's an excellent outdoor kitchen. This place is exactly as described and the price point can't be beat. Wish we'd stayed in the outdoor tents! We may just be back.”
