As mentioned by others, the cottage is delightful; fully equipped with everything one could want. Walk in to a cool cross-breeze, fresh flowers, and Hawaiian music playing. We made use of the BBQ at the back. Make sure to walk over to the Venus pool at sunrise for an amazing experience. We love the unique beaches, Pipiwai trail hike and... More

I stayed here one night with a friend who was visiting Maui for the first time. The house is nicely equipped and furnished and very clean. It is also quiet and there are no roosters! Wild chickens can be a factor in rural Maui areas. A few things made our stay a bit uncomfortable, but depending upon your own preferences,... More

We are happy this guest found our Hale Manu house nicely furnished, quiet and clean and always appreciate being acknowledged for our hard work. We take a lot of care with our bedding and we have worked to find something that would protect the beds, keep them sanitary and still be comfortable. There is a felt lined protector under an... More

This house was even nicer than the pictures appear. It was so clean and comfortable, and had everything you could think of, from beach chairs and umbrellas, from coolers to card games, CDs, books and movies, to a kitchen equipped for all kinds of cooking and baking. Our purpose in renting was to spend more time in the Hana area... More

We stayed in the one-bedroom cottage at the front of the property. Despite their being 3 cottages on the property, the lush vegetation gave it a very private feel. As others mention, the house was spotless and the kitchen has everything you need for preparing meals-nothing was second-rate. This home is comfortable, very well-kept and peaceful. It offers everything you... More

The house was immaculate when we arrived, and Hawaiian music was playing and fresh flowers in every room. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could think of, which is great because when you stay in Hana (a fact we learned on our first trip there a few years ago), you are probably going to be cooking all of your...

Hale Manu was immaculately clean, furnished with lovely Hawaiiana, surrounded with flowers, birdsong, and a stunning view of the ocean and sunrise. It is situated a couple of miles past town, making it quiet and private, but still very convenient. There is a path to beaches, or a short drive to all that the Hana area has to offer. We... More

This was our first trip to Hana and it was perfect. Leokane and Chris have created a slice of heaven. We stayed in the 2 bedroom cottage and awoke to the sunrise . The cottage was immaculate and everything you could think of to make your stay comfortable was provided from wifi to beach chairs. You can start and end... More

My wife and I spent a week at the guest house and really enjoyed our stay. If you want to get a "living as a local" experience this is the place to stay. Hana is a great quiet little town. The guest house is very well appointed, decorated very nicely, and has everything you could possibly need for any length... More

Hale Manu was truly lovely, comfortable and an ideal accomodation for us. The owners have obviously devoted much time and effort in creating such a welcoming environment, that was very well described on their website. What an improvement in accomodations compared to our visit to Hana ten years earlier. As suggested on the website, we purchased food along the way... More

We stayed here for two nights, in a 14 day trip to Maui. Overall the reviews here are very accurate, and we were certainly happy we stayed here. We had a family of two adults and two kids aged 9 and 11. For me, this was a slice place was fantastic. For the rest, just slightly less than perfect. The... More
