Testimonials

  We had an amazing family vacation using the Lookout House and two of the cottages. The houses and property were beautiful and perfect for our group of 8 adults and... read more a toddler. Sharyn and Jeff are great hosts and were responsive to all of our needs. We highly recommend this property.

  An ideal vacation getaway: beauty everywhere from the exquisite gardens to the many sweet touches inside our cottage; wonderful suggestions and responsiveness from our host; great location - convenient... read more to all Maui has to offer and wonderfully private.

  I cannot say enough good things about our experience at this rental. The location feels very tucked away, but it's close to both Haiku town and Paia. It's also on... read more the road to Hana, so some of the amazing things to explore are right around the corner. Close to the unit you can hike, get to Twin Falls, and see amazing views! We loved going to the lookout to see the ocean and the cliffs. The rental has everything you need and more. Sharyn is an incredible host. She provides some local treats and very special gifts that make you feel at home when you arrive. We love love loved the outdoor shower and hot tub, especially at night when you can see the stars. This was the kind of place you both want to come back to and want to recommend to all of your friends and family. 11/10!

  Huelo Lookout has a lot to offer if you are looking for an off the beaten path, beautiful Hawaiian stay. Situated off the lower north eastern shore, we were greeted... read more with a beautiful welcome package from Sharyn, the home adorned with flowers inviting us into every space of Rainbow lookout. We utilized every aspect of the property from the sea cliff walk, the impeccably clean hot tub, to the very refreshing pool after a long day hiking. The bathroom and outdoor shower are absolutely beautiful, no detail left out. Say hi to the chix at least once, they were very friendly and gave us a taste of home while we stayed on Maui. No need to leave if you are looking to just indulge the senses and enjoy the local life of a Hawaiian, it was wonderfully quiet, and we felt we had the entire place to our own. We will absolutely be coming back again, a true diamond in the hills! Thank you so much for what you’ve created Sharyn and Jeff.

  Our second visit here. We were here from the day after Christmas till the day after New Years day. We arrived and there were snacks in the fridge; my wife... read more has Celiac (allergen to Gluten) and Sharyn made sure our snacks were gluten free. What a nice welcome. This place is easy to find, even in the dark. The road is a country road, just keep following the instructions on google map. Easy to find. This place looks over the ocean, maybe a 1/4 mile away, the view is beautiful. It is a two story house, lots of windows facing the ocean with a porch on the upper and the lower level. Only two of us, but we rented the entire house. We slept in the second floor bedroom where one can see the moonrise over the ocean and the sunrise over the ocean. The bedroom had a patio door to the porch; although open to the porch, it is really private. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the cooking items one would need. You need to supply your own food. There is a gas grill on the rear covered porch off the kitchen, and there is a large table on that covered porch too. The kitchen has a large beautiful table, one could seat 10 or more people at that table and still have room. The lower floor has a washer and dryer and another full bathroom. There is an outdoor hot tub on the lower level that is very secluded; one feels like they are in the middle of the jungle, well, I guess one would be at this place. We enjoyed the home so much that we stayed there for about 3 days without really going out except for walking about the property and 'neighborhood'. It's a tropical area and at the time we were there the weather would follow a cycle of wind, then rain, then wind, then the sun would come out, then the cycle would start all over again. It was beautiful and warm. When we wanted more sun we went to the other side of the island; don't let this description scare you, this property is on the way to Hana, so it is a tropical environment. It was what we wanted. Sharyn takes care of the tropical bugs in a reasonable 'makes sense' way, Cedar oil in small straws in key places, and a lizard population. It's pretty cool, one might see one or two lizards on the wall in the living room doing their job. They are harmless, we both have lived in areas where lizards are in the house. In short, although this place is secluded in a jungle, no bugs, even on the porch. There is parking for your rental car that is covered. There was a TV with an assortment of movies, but we never used it, no need. Summer would probably be warm, but there is a pool 20 feet from the house. The pool is shared with other guests. If you want a fabulous place in the country away from the tourist side of the island, this is the place. It really doesn't get any better. It was just what we desired. Two couples could easily stay here, or an entire family. It is set up for that with board games to play as well. We'll come back again for a third visit, we're working out the details. For us winter is nicer since we live in the cold Midwest. If you want to live like a local for a week, have peace and quiet and have beautiful scenery in a place secluded in a jungle, this is it. It doesn't get any better. I highly recommend this as a place to stay.

  My imagination of a tropical paradise was met during our stay here. Secluded, gorgeous location above the cliffs on the north shore of Maui. Matched by the attention... read more and care from the best host ever, Sharyn.

  A perfect location for us, wanting off the busy tourist areas. Beautiful setting and grounds. And the host really knocked it out of the park with the thoughtful touches and... read more provisions. This was our first visit to Maui, and overall we prefer Kauai. However, I think we will go back to Maui just to stay here again. The outdoor shower was amazing.

  It’s hard to even put into words how spectacular Huelo Point Lookout is. The pics and videos definitely can’t capture the true beauty and feeling of the property. We loved... read more having all the windows open to the amazing breeze. We loved the beautiful flowers and thoughtful gifts that were there for our arrival. We stayed at the Rainbow cottage and it was really breathtaking to watch the sun rise from our windows every morning and we also saw rainbows everyday! We really enjoyed walking the property full of gorgeous flowers and fruit trees, feeding the chickens, walking to the cliff for sunset and the pool and hot tub! Sharyn and Jeff have a piece of paradise here and we feel so lucky we found it! We will definitely be staying here again when we come back to Maui. It was the perfect location to everything you want to see in the area and yet private and peaceful away from tourists. Thank you so much for everything Sharyn and Jeff! More

  Huelo Lookout Point is a little slice of heaven! Nestled in the North country jungle, this private house with your own hot tub and ocean views is perfect for... read more a honeymoon or anniversary! The warmth and hospitality of the owners and staff is excellent and every item you need is there at your disposal. You are welcomed with the space adorned with flowers and they set you up with the basics like coffee, bread, and eggs in case you came in late we have been here twice and each time it’s been a treasure of an experience! This location would also work for a family reunion because there are different accommodations all over this gorgeous property!

  A bit of heaven - We can't gush enough about this "hidden" oasis - it really is a bit of heaven. If you want to feel like the most spoiled last people on Earth, this... read more is the place for you. Accommodations were homey and comfy (the dining room table which sitting at has you looking out over the ocean is itself a work of art!), facilities fantastic (more below on those), and hosts very warm and welcoming. Kiddo loved the pool, and the hot tub; Mr and Mrs have to agree with her. Access to some beach gear was a bonus for folks who travel light. We were fortunate to stay in the Ocean Lookout which is worth the extra money for the space and the stunning views. We encourage you to take the short walk to the cliff’s end to better appreciate the wonderful environs from which Sharyn and Jeff have created a truly special place to stay.

  An amazing property, by far our favorite accommodation on a multi istand trip. The special touches, amenities and views were beyond expectations. Abundant Sliding glass doors and windows... read more worked well so you could create just the right breeze at all times. Comfort with a view from just about anywhere in the living spaces. There is a cliff walk for a closer view. This place puts you in touch with nature and will make you want to just hang out. We enjoyed the jacuzzi and the pool area is beautifully tropical. That said the road to hana is right at your feet and a must do for adventure... We loved it and you will too.....

  We took advantage of location proximity exploring east Maui (Hana side) through North Shore, Central Maui and Upcountry while staying at Sharyn’s property. Did I mention the on prem swim... read more pool, hot tub, cliff walk, self pick tropical fruits and kids loving chicken coop! Previously everyone has been talking about seeing a turtle or two. Come here visiting North Shore, we saw few dozens of them sunbathing late afternoon on Ho'okipa Beach! And thanks to Sharyn’s and her staff’s hospitality, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!!

  Sharyn is a one of a kind hostess, very communicative, warm and welcoming. We were greeted with flowers artfully strewn throughout the house, a basket of fresh fruit, bottle of... read more wine, chocolate macadamia nuts and even eggs, bread
and coffee for breakfast. We were quite touched by the beautiful welcome.

The top floor allows breathtaking 180 degree views of the ocean, palm trees, flowers and lush greenery. Sunrise here is a wonderful experience. It’s a great way to start your day.

A big plus for this location is it’s only 10-15 minutes from the Twin Falls on the Hana Highway. It’s your first major stop on that journey. This is a big asset at the end of a long day when you get to go home while everyone else has to continue driving exhausted to the other side of Maui. I highly recommend this house. More

  We had a wonderful stay in the lookout house in February 2022! The house is exactly like the pictures, including the amazing 3-sided view of the ocean and Haleakala from... read more the living room. We turned the chairs to face outward and watched the sunrise there every day. The beds are comfortable, kitchen well equipped, hot tub warm & bubbly, and the pool refreshing (though unheated, so a bit cold in winter). The setting is super private - the only times we saw other guests in 10 days were a couple times as we were driving off the property. We loved staying in this hidden corner of Maui, which is beautiful, lush, and not crowded by other people. That said, it is remote (about a half hour to Paia, the nearest town), so if you want night life, easy access to restaurants, etc, this probably isn’t the spot for you. Hosts Sharyn and Jeff were available but generally hands-off unless needed, which we appreciated. More
