If you want to be in Paia, or minutes to Ho'okipa or Sprecklesville, you'll like this location. This is the relaxed, non-touristy Hawaiian experience. Plus, Paia is the north shore hub for all sports wind and wave. And, Paia is a walk-able town.

The north shore has no high rise buildings and is the antithesis of the 'resort' experience. Rather, here locals and visitors intermingle, the waves are world-class, and there's plenty of open space. Paia has galleries, restaurants, funky shopping and a wonderful natural foods grocery store called Mana Foods. It's a pretty laid back place.

Another nice thing about Paia and Paia House is that it's centrally located. When one comes to Maui, they want the beach - there's plenty of that here. But, people also want to drive the road to Hana, see the top of Haleakala (at 10,000 ft above sea level), and check out the other parts of the island. This is perfect hub.

Paia House is located in a neighborhood. There's a peek-a-boo view to the ocean. The walk to Paia town is about four minutes. There are neighborhood sounds: people, children, dogs, and a school bus that comes through during the school year.

Further Details: All rooms have new split AC units and overhead fans. Out back is a covered lanai. Here's where you may store gear, dry it out, work out kite line tangles, do yoga, have a bbq, and kids may play. There's a yard, picnic table, hammock, fruit trees, flowers, chairs, and some beach gear we leave for guests (snorkels, masks, some boogie boards, beach chairs, a cooler, etc.)

Also, as is very Hawaiian style, the washer/dryer is outside. This keeps the heat outside too. And, if you prefer to dry things in the sun, there's a clothesline.

We also generate electricity with the photovoltaic (PV) solar panels located on the roof.

Also, we supply filtered water and Hydroflasks for you to use while traveling around. Please consider skipping the one-use plastic water bottles and use these instead. Mahalo!

Rooms are not huge, but there's plenty of space and a ceiling fan in each.

A mid-stay clean is mandatory for stays of 8 nights plus.

There's a carport for two cars.

This is a well appointed plantation-style home that's perfectly situated for a relaxing north shore vacation.

PER MAUI COUNTY LAW NO ADDITIONAL GUESTS BEYOND MAX OCCUPANCY OF 6 WILL BE ALLOWED

We loved staying in a neighborhood within waking distance to Paia with its restaurants, beaches, and stores. The house is extremely well equipped. The kitchen had everything. There there was ample beach equipment. Note that one of the two bathrooms is just putside the kitchen door. It's only 15 minutes from the airport, 25 from Ma'alaea Harbor (where boat trips depart from), and it is on 'The Road to Hana'. Paia House was plenty large for our family group of five adults. Highly recommend if, like us, you are not resort people.

My family and I really enjoyed staying here. We were in Maui for 10 days - our first trip there. We spent 4 nights on the west side, and then another 6 nights in this house. The neighborhood is decent, but the house is just fine and the very short walk to the very cool town of Paia is awesome. I also liked being near other attractions on this side of the island. I recommend staying here.

This house was very comfortable with a great location and not stingy on supplies. Beautiful beaches to walk or drive a short distance. Chairs, coolers and some snorkel gear provided, and ec n had sand toys for castle builders. Coffee was provided for the first morning, and it was great coffee. Restaurants and shopping are just a short walk which is great since parking in town fills up. Kitchen was so nice that we ate at the house a couple of nights, and the outdoor space was as nice as the inside. Loved everything!!

My family and I were looking for something other than the traditional resort stay in Maui, this home did not disappoint. The town of Paia is small but has everything you need including some great restaurants, Vana Sushi and Flatbread Pizza are a must, shaved ice stands and gelato! The beaches truly are within walking distance and this home has all the beach gear you could ask for. Chairs, snorkel gear, coolers and of course towels are all at your disposal. The house itself is very comfortable, beds were great and A/C units in each room to help keep it cool as temps rise. We made use of the full kitchen and grilled on the patio a few times as well. Just remember it is a neighborhood and although the home itself has quiet hours posted, that doesn't mean the wild roosters or neighbors revving engines will always comply. Overall an amazing stay and we highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique stay off the commercial path!

The Paia House had a little bit of everything to offer. The location was great, with a short walk to a local beach, best for looking at turtles and the sunset, as well as a walk into town to eat, shop or go to Mana Foods for groceries. The house itself was spotless, comfortable, spacious and well equipped including everything for the beach. In the backyard was a welcomed spot for enjoying outdoor meals and doing laundry and had an orange tree and many tropical bushes with flowers. We appreciated all of the attention to so many details and really enjoyed our home away from home each day! Thank you!

Six of us sixty-somethings had a great stay here. Spent most of our awake time at the house on the lanai, eating, talking, laughing. The grill was top notch, and there were ample facilities for cooking and eating. Beds were comfy and AC adequate for the warm evenings when we got home from our excursions. Great location for doing everything we did; Road to Hana, Farmers Market in Pukolani, beaches in Kihei, groceries in Kahalui and the Mana store, whale watching cruise at Maalea, and watching the extreme surf at Hookipa and Jaws. And super clean which we all appreciated!

Over priced for what you get, wouldn’t recommend this property Neighbors are super noisy every night. House needs to be updated.

Arriving late at night from a flight delayed by 13 hours we weren’t a happy family. A few text exchanges with Darcy the property manager to confirm we would still be arriving - at 2am - helped us feel at ease with such a late arrival. WOW - house was great, beds are fantastic, location to “town” was a 3-5 min walk. We would definitely stay at Paia house again - helped make our holiday a good lifetime memory!!

We were thrilled with the location so close to town. Access to beaches and waterfalls was much better than the South side where we had stayed before. The house is a perfect base for adventures with comfortable beds and a nice kitchen. Close to Safeway and restaurants.

We had a lovely week in Paia with our 2 granddaughters! The house had everything you could possibly need or want for a vacation stay. The house was immaculate and a very well kept property outside. We were close to food, beaches and shopping. It was an amazing stay in Paia!

My husband and I and our 4 children ages 21,18, 16 and 14 had a great stay in Paia. The home was very clean, comfortable, and perfect for our 10 day trip to Maui. We enjoyed the quick walk to the restaurants, boutique shops and great grocery store, Mana Foods. Perfect place to access all we wanted to do in Maui; Road to Hana, Haleakala, Beaches, Hiking, Snorkeling, and Surfing. Very relaxing, chill town!

From the booking process, to checking in, the stay, the town, and checking out, it was the best experience we've had. The home was sparkling clean. They even left the lights on for us since we arrived late. The home was nicely stocked of everything we needed to prepare meals. The towels were very plush. The beds were nice, with lots of pillows and blankets, if needed. The showers were awesome, loved the outdoor one!! The patio outside was pleasant. We utilized the washing machine because we stayed 8 days, but only packed 4 outfits!! Maui is awesome. Get outside, snorkel, bodysurf, enjoy the weather. The home was nicely stocked with beach chairs, towels, some snorkel stuff, boogey boards and coolers. There was an umbrella, too. But we didn't use it.

Great communication with property manager. We loved the location of the house. Walking distance to town for shopping, dining and the beach. House was super clean and in great conditions. My family and I greatly enjoyed our stay here and we hope to go back soon.

The house was comfortable, roomy, very clean and cute. It was perfect for our family (2 adults, 2 teenagers) - the location is ideal as a home base to tour the island and do adventures in the highlands and the beach. The backyard was lovely! The property description and photos were accurate. We had easy communication with local property manager and check in was a breeze. The house (especially kitchen) was well appointed and I liked that the previous renters had left some non-perishables (olive oil, spices etc... ) we did the same for the next folks. We ate almost all meals in and shopped at Manna grocery on Baldwin. ... which helped make Maui a bit more affordable. A five star gem - we hope to come back to Paia house! Thanks!

The Paia house was quite comfortable for a group of two grandparents, two parents, and two children under four. Short walk or driving distance to beach was a major benefit, as well as walkability to town. House itself had a comfortable great room with room for the kids to play, a good size kitchen, and three comfortable beds. Backyard and covered patio also of great use. Family neighborhood. Only negatives were excessive street lighting and some noise from people parking in neighborhood and walking to local restaurants and shopping.

We didn't know much about Paia before booking this, but we thought we would choose this location as to get out of the main crazy tourists areas. This home is in a great location for easy walking to Paia town and beaches. Fun little town of Paia. Also on the road to Hana, so that saved us a lot of time to make that trek. The house is pretty small, but lovely, very clean and a great place to stay. We had 5 adults in our party. The second bathroom outside was a surprise to us, but we made it work. Lovely yard and landscaping. All in all a very pleasant stay here!

Excellent location. Well maintained properly. We enjoyed our upcountry experience. Door lock is a bit wonky…takes a couple of tries to open. Second bathroom is outside the kitchen door and we were not expecting that. Other than that, this is a really nice property.

The house was clean, well stocked, and very organized. We were really grateful to have the folding chairs and boogie boards to take with us to the beach. The town of Paia was wonderful! There are so many cute artisan shops and everyone that we talked to was super nice and gave us great recommendations. The house is within walking distance to everything you could need.

We had a fantastic time and really appreciated the attention to detail at the home. We had everything we needed and the house was spotless and comfortable. We ate outside on the back patio every night and loved the walkability to town. Plenty of room for our family to spread out for a "work-cation" and enjoy everything the north shore has to offer. Thank you for the great stay!
