Description from owner

Description

Welcome to your ‘Hawaiian Dream Temple’ (BBPH2012) (0004)

This unique & luxurious Asian Style Bamboo Cottage is a custom Eco-designed vacation rental comprised of 1,800 square feet of covered living space, split 'Island style' between 1,000 square feet of indoor space and 800 square feet of 3 covered decks. It’s ideal for 4 Adults ( optional : 2 Additional children on Sofa Bed in Bedroom 1) looking for a private, peaceful & relaxing destination.

Our place is featured number ONE in the 7 Best Places to go Glamping in Hawaii by the Big Seven Travel, an online ranking magazine.

THE PROPERTY

Bedroom 1: Queen Bed (2 extra kids can sleep on the Sofa Bed in Bedroom 1 at an additional rate of $25 per person, per night) Bedroom 2: Queen Bed

Aloha, the 'Hawaiian Dream Temple' is your best choice for taking your vacation to the next level of serenity as you relax and unwind on the large wrap-around deck in your own private hot tub and admire the tropical flowers and vibrant fauna. Listening to the birds while relaxing on the lanai will be your favorite part of the day.

Perfect for romantic and private honeymoons, the interior is constructed of all hand woven bamboo, and with an open air plan, the ceilings and walls allow for tropical breezes to flow throughout the home. The living room is a vaulted Asian style ceiling and the kitchen is fully appointed with appliances and cooking utensils, as well as tea, and coffee.

Both bedrooms have queen-sized beds and a private lanai (Hawaiian for deck) with beautiful seating areas for morning relaxation or evening reading. The bathroom has an over-sized, deep Jacuzzi tub, plus a shower.

As a guest of the cottage, the owner has graciously extended use of his family pool so you'll have shared access to the amazing 40-foot fresh water swimming pool - located a quick 3 minute walk down the drive next to the main house. Designed with an Asian theme in mind, this tropical pool oasis has palm trees swaying in the breeze, creating the perfect place to let your stresses slip away. A lava rock waterfall gurgles next to a shaded balinese meditation gazebo that overlooks a bridge that spans the deep end and 1-foot-deep swimming moats for small kids.

The homeowners welcome you with Aloha and are passionate about creating a special space for your precious time away from it all!

THE LOCATION

The cottage is completely private and very much separate from the main house. You have your own large yard, private gated driveway and parking area. Situated away from the commercial and 'touristy' areas in the 'Upcountry' of Tropical Haiku, you'll be close to waterfalls, hiking trails, zip lining adventures, horseback riding, cycling routes, and Haleakala crater.

If you're interested in enjoying activities close to home, inquire about hiking to a local waterfall or participating in sound healing sessions with the on-site manager, Guia. The community pool is also available when you prefer to relax by the water.

The cottage is 15 minutes from beaches, the quaint surf town of Paia, and 10 minutes from the upcountry town of Makawao. Even closer is the world famous Ho'okipa beach with its legendary surf break and some of the best windsurfing, kite boarding, & surfing in Hawaii.

You don’t need to walk anywhere to experience the stunning beauty as you drive along the 'Road to Hana' (Highway 360) for fabulous views of the world famous Maui coastline.

After exciting Hawaiian adventures, dine at some of Maui’s best seafood restaurants, like Hawaii's top-rated Mama's Fish House Restaurant, just minutes from the house!
