Ho’oilo House is nothing short of magical—a true paradise on Maui. Whether you’re celebrating a honeymoon, anniversary, or simply seeking a tranquil escape, this boutique gem offers the perfect blend of luxury, serenity, and authentic Hawaiian charm.||From the moment you arrive, Dan, the long-time host and owner, makes you feel like ohana (family). With over two decades of experience, he has perfected the balance of attentiveness and respect for privacy. Need advice on where to go or what to do? Dan’s wealth of local knowledge is invaluable. Prefer uninterrupted relaxation? You’ll feel as though you have the entire property to yourself.||The house itself, designed in an exquisite Balinese style, is breathtaking. Open-air architecture invites the soothing Maui breezes, while every detail—from the hand-carved furnishings to the lush tropical landscaping—creates an atmosphere of pure elegance. The rooms are spacious, light-filled, and luxurious, each featuring outdoor showers and bathtubs where you can enjoy steaming hot water under the stars or as the sun rises over the West Maui mountains.||Now, let me address a key concern for anyone planning a visit post-Lahaina fires: Ho’oilo House and its neighborhood, Launiupoko, remain untouched by the devastation. This area is as pristine and idyllic as you’ve always dreamed Maui would be. Plus, local restaurants, bars, and attractions are open, welcoming visitors with aloha. By staying here, you’re supporting the community at a time when it’s needed most—and the experience far surpasses that of a large resort. With complimentary breakfast, free parking, unparalleled privacy, and personal attention from the host, Ho’oilo House offers unbeatable value.||If you’re unsure, I urge you to call Dan directly.

This is a delightful Maui jewel. When you walk in you feel like you're visiting a world explorer's house. They have six rooms that all connect to the main room, however it's rare that you will ever see the other guests except maybe at breakfast. That's fine, as you're there for a relaxing stay on the island. And it's quiet. The only noises I ever heard there were the birds chirping, water fountains trickling, and a truck backing up (we were in the suburbs after all).

While the place is technically in Lahaina it isn't anywhere near civilization. It's a 12-minute drive to the city, and Uber drivers don't like coming out here. So make sure you rent a car. And this place gets dark at night. There aren't any streetlights. The good part about that is the night sky lets you see a LOT more stars than the city. It's a wonderful experience. Launiupoko Beach Park is a 5 minute drive from here, and is a very nice beach that's rarely crowded.

Our hosts were super nice, and nothing was ever rushed. We could do everything at our own pace. We could also borrow beach towels, umbrellas, chairs, and boogie boards.

The room was clean and pretty well maintained. Despite being in a tropical environment we didn't have much of a problem with insects. There's a safe and mini fridge in the closet. There is a TV with local cable. The toilet is in a separate room, however there isn't a vent in there, so every now and then you should open all the windows to air out the room.

My favorite part of the room was the private outdoor shower. Don't worry about being seen as that wall is a good 7 feet tall. There was one time when the people in the room next door were taking their shower at the same time I was. I wanted to shout over the wall "Hello, neighbor!" but I restrained myself as I didn't want to be "that creepy guy".

Some things of note, because this is a bed and breakfast...

-There is no restaurant or bar -There are no laundry facilities, however there is a fine 24-hour coin-operated laundromat in Lahaina -There is no concierge, however the hosts can give you good ideas for fun

So yes, please stay here if you want a quiet and relaxing experience away from the bustle...
