Recent Trip Advisor Reviews:

"AMAZING" - This place was beyond our dreams. We went for our honeymoon, and it was magical. From the moment we walked in, we felt welcome and felt like it was our second home. The owners had incense burning and a very light, melodic tune playing when we entered our beautiful haven. There were beach blankets, lanterns, and many other amenities available for the guests. The owners have also traveled a lot and had a nice collection of items from Bali and India for sale. I got myself some gifts including beautiful scarves, jewelry and many cute things.

When we arrived, the owners wanted to meet us and we spoke briefly to them. They were so nice to us and made us feel so welcome. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone. Oh yeah, the town is also really cute and has great food. If you decide to go to Maui, don't go to the resorts, go here!! You definitely won't regret it.

"Luxury cottage, peaceful and romantic..." - We stayed here for our honeymoon. We stayed 3 nights here and had a very romantic time. This is a great place for romance and complete privacy. The cottage is very well built and posh and spotlessly clean!!! The tub on the deck is great for bubble baths. We didn't see a sole our entire stay except a snail on the deck. It rained most our visit and we were a bit chilly but the bath worked good for quick warm ups. There is plenty of hot water and the tub fills very fast - great. We did alot of cooking and did find that you have to open the cottage doors as there isn't a fan in the kitchen area or by the stove. And, they need better cooking utensils... don't take this as negative...just nit picks. It is a perfect romantic getaway and very cozy. We have also stayed at the Olinda Spa retreat which is across the street. It has an incredible view so probably we will stay there next time again over Aloha but will most likely be back here too. Only because we love the view. The spa services are great too, well worth the cost. Aloha Cottages have more luxury touches. It is a tough choice...luxury finishes and complete privacy or view...??? Either way you will be happy. We like the upcountry area. We go to Maui or Kauai once or twice a year and have decided that we will always come to upcountry for the first couple nights to unwind before we stay at the big resorts for the beaches. We also stayed at Hotel Hana this visit and LOVED it. Upcountry is a ways from the beaches but it has a certain feel to it that makes your troubles just melt away. The drive to the beach town Paia is easy and quick.

“We were in heaven” - When we arrived at the Thai Tree House we found it immaculately clean. Ron and Ranjana were very helpful with ideas of what to do on Maui. The cottage is extremely private and romantic, there is a 1/4 mile driveway going there. Soaking under the stars in the outside jacuzzi tub was the highlight every evening. The cottage is so posh, it is sheer heaven, with a marble bathroom, granite countertops and a headboard with mirror. This is the best location ever on Maui, close to everything and yet completely private. We loved it and wished we could stay longer. The cottage was even more beautiful as the pictures of it on the web site.

"This is one of the most magical places we've ever been to!" - Surrounded by lush and tropical forest, far up on the mountain these cottages make out the perfect place for a completely private and romantic get away. We got engaged while staying at the Bali house and it truly provided the perfect setting. For us it was very precious. This is not about over the top luxury ("resort style"), but rather about atmosphere, privacy, nature, spirit and heart. And that's our cup of tea....

The couple who owners the place are fantastic and truly helped us making our trip to Hawaii so much better than we could have ever imagined. Their hospitality, beautiful spirit and energy still remains with us all the way back home in Sweden.

If you are open and willing to experience the real and unique Maui away from the touristy coastal strips...this is it! Try it . You won't regret it.

It was beautiful and every detail was amazing. It was cooler up where the cottage is so my husband was very happy it wasn't hot and stuffy. If you want to be secluded and not around tourists and the hustle and bustle this is the place for you!

I cannot say enough how special of a place this was to us as we stayed our way around the island for our honeymoon. We had the most romantic and peaceful time in this cottage. We would sit outside in the soaking tub and we couldn't hear a thing....just the horse in the pasture that lived next door....It was amazing.

There are journals there that almost every visitor has written in and they have told a little about their experience. I read every single entry!!! It was neat.

My husband and I only crossed paths with the owners one time in the driveway. This is all the contact we wanted and it as just fine with us.....but they said they are there if you need them as little or as much as you want

I would go back tomorrow if I could.....

"Its a must stay!!!" - We recently stayed at the Aloha Cottage in Maui, and it was stunning. Beautiful spot in the hills above Makawao with total privacy, a goregous deck and access to great food and the whole island. We were thrilled to find the cottage just as promised on the owner's site -- no surprises other than happy ones. We went all over the island and enjoyed coming back to a quiet spot and a warm bed. Would highly recommend this spot for a romantic getaway, even the everyday getaway!

Upon arriving from a 15 hr. flight to "The Aloha Cottage" we felt like we were in paradise! Entering the beautiful grounds lush with tropical flora, sweet smells of Eucoliptis and banana trees, too numberable to describe. We climbed up steps to arrive at a place only our dreams could imagine, high in the clouds, our own private place of impecible interior and exterior design. Sounds of a trickiling water fountain and chirping birds welcomed us. The sight a an outside bathtub for two, with private balcony was too much for the weary traveler.
Walking into the bedroom the beauty of the decor continued to draw us into a place of peace and serinity. The huge King Bed in the center of the room (with an opening in the ceiling where you can watch the thousands of stars at night !) was the most romantic setting I've ever experience. The decor made you feel as if you were in a far away land, with rugs, pictures, stautues all from Bali (thus the name Bai Bungelo).
The kitchen was well stocked and even had coffee, sugar, cream and morning extras.

I have NEVER stayed in an accomadation more serine and visually comforting with the sights and smells that lured my soul. My husband didn't even want to leave to explore Maui, he wanted to come back and enjoy our new home".
One of the beautys of " The Aloha Cottage" is its closeness to everything. No matter where we were traveling it was within 30-45 minutes from our home base. Also, because it is in the high country, it is cool at night (50's) and glorious to hear the wind and feel the mountain breezes as you sleep.

The owners were incredibly helpful sharing ALL their secret "favorites" from where to eat, where to go sightseeing and most important where NOT to go!

I hesitate to write this knowing It will be hard to get a reservation once the word gets out, but, I want to share this glorious Eden with the world. Truly the owners Ranjana and Ron have blessed me with a memory that will last a lifetime! (I WILL RETURN)
