Hana's Tradewind Cottages — Attraction in Maui

This cottage has a rustic feel, like you're living like the locals. Except you get a hot tub, which is fantastic after hiking up to Waimoku Falls. The place is surrounded by flowers and trees.||||I liked it. The sitting area had great-looking furniture, the bed had a comfy pillow top mattress. Kitchen had pretty much everything we needed, including olive oil and seasonings, and there's a gas barbecue on the porch as well. The Hana area is very wet, and mosquitoes are a problem. The cottage's windows are all screened but we still had one or two follow us in. Mosquito repellent spray was provided, and the geckos were awesome. I adored the geckos. (Want some cheap entertainment? Turn on the porch light at night and watch those guys chase the bugs!)||||The only hard time we had was with the Wifi. The signal comes from the main house and even in line-of-sight, we were getting at best two bars, usually one and sometimes none. Averagely 40% packet loss.||||Rebecca and Mike were friendly and super helpful, and took care of other minor...

The cottage is very reasonably priced, and the living areas are nice. Sitting out on the deck is very peaceful, but you need the mosquito coils-supplied- as there are a lot of mosquitoes as well as small lizards that do get inside. If you don't like wildlife, this is not the place for you. There are not many places to eat in Hana, and we brought our own supplies, but the kitchen without a stove and poor gas pressure on the hot plate called for some creative cooking. Don't expect a relaxing shower as the water pressure is very week and the hot water not so hot. The advertised bedding was for a queen bed, I think it was a double, and two twin beds, which were singles. The power point in the second bedroom was falling off the wall, a safety issue. A request to do some laundry was met with a firm no and we were told that there were no laundry facilities in Hana, not overly friendly...

Certainly a welcome sight after the long 3hr drive down the Road to Hana! Curves and narrow road that goes on for hours but the views are just out of this world. If you are hesitant to drive you can get a tour bus to take you.||||The cottage is wonderful, neat spacious and great kitchen. No air conditioning but you don't need it because of the efficient fans. We were actually cold. It rained heavily and temp was down to the 50's. but warmed up in the afternoon. Drove past Hana as far as we dared and walked the botanical garden and lava tube. Beautiful scenery and fun.||||The gardens is wonderful around the cottage and the flower arrangement that greeted up upon arrival was stunning. Tradewinds is on a tropical flower plantation that exports flowers worldwide. Impressive, friendly and wonderful hosts. Love the 2 dogs that came to...
