This was my first trip to Maui and I stayed in the Thai Tree House. It was my utter good fortune. It really is the perfect place to rest and recuperate. As I drove through the bamboo on the approach to the house I knew that my stay would be a special. I grinned as I explored the gorgeous place... More

My partner and I just spent a lovely, private and beautifully romantic week at the Aloha Cottage. We chose the Aloha Cottage instead of the Thai Tree House, because we liked the rounded architecture and the skylight. When we got there, we were amazed! The sky was so clear, and the stars were fully visible through the very large skylight... More

We stayed in the Aloha Cottage (not the Thai Treehouse) for a couple nights of our honey moon. There were several things that stole the romance from the experience. All of the curtains--including the large front glass doors and the toilet--are very transparent. The windows in front of the sink have no curtains whatsoever (and you have to remember that... More

We stayed at Aloha Cottage for 2 1/2 weeks in May, and we loved it. The setting is wonderful and very private. Surrounded by eucalyptus trees with winding vines of jasmine wafting their scents into the air, and the songs of a thousand birds upon awakening, this is truly serenity and beauty. Oh, and you can glimpse the sunsets over... More

Took about nearly 1-2 hours or so to get from Kannapali to the cottage. You really do need to have the instructions they give you because its pretty difficult to find. Basically because your on the road to the accommodation but you have to look out for the specific mailboxes to turn left into the small 1 way concrete road... More

After reading some of the more scathing reviews of this cottage, I was aprehensive about the experience when I got there. I can now say with great confidence that those people are way off base! This cottage was incredible and exceeded all of our expectations from the word go! It was clean, gorgeous, and the ultimate getaway experience if that... More

I read in a book about Maui that you didn't6 see the real Maui if you don't see the Sunrise at the summit of Haleakala. I would like to add to this that if someone go visiting Up Country without staying at the Thai Three House for a couple of days, he didn't see the best of Upcountry ! It's... More

My husband and I just had our honeymoon here and we couldn't be happier with the experience! The Thai Tree House is pure luxury, an elegant spot nestled in the woods of upcountry Maui. It was totally private, peaceful and romantic. On top of that, we were close to two adorable towns, Makawao and Paia, where we went out to... More
