★Jump Start The Road to Hana at The Lookout House! Private Hot Tub + Pool Access

The Lookout House at Huelo Point Lookout in Maui is the perfect home base for exploring the island. The location of the house off the Hana Highway makes it a great starting point for your Road to Hana adventure. The famous scenic drive to Hana is a must-do activity for visitors to Maui, with breathtaking views of waterfalls, rainforests, and beaches. By staying at The Lookout House, you can beat the crowds and fully immerse yourself in the beauty of the island.

After a long day of exploring, come back to the house and soak in the hot tub with a chilled glass of wine, and take in the spectacular starry night sky. The wraparound decks on both levels of the house boast ocean and mountain views from every room. You can enjoy your morning coffee with a view of the sunrise over the ocean or relax in the evening with a view of the sunset over the mountains.

The Lookout House provides a great balance of privacy and convenience. Located just 45 minutes from Kahului Airport and 15-20 minutes from restaurants and shopping, you can easily explore the nearby towns and restaurants while having a secluded oasis to come back to.

The house is also equipped with all the amenities you need to feel at home. You can prepare your meals in the fully equipped kitchen and enjoy them on the teak dining table or the outdoor treetop barbecue lanai. For added convenience, the house features a private washer and dryer, big fluffy towels, and heated towel dryers. You can truly feel at home and enjoy a comfortable stay in this tranquil oasis.

Whether you're on a romantic vacation or a long-overdue family getaway, The Lookout House is the perfect place to retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and immerse yourself in the beauty of Maui.

We look forward to welcoming you:))

PLEASE NOTE:
-------- PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT THE POOL IS SHARED BETWEEN THE LOOKOUT HOUSE, HALEAKALA COTTAGE, RAINBOW COTTAGE, AND STAR COTTAGE :)!...
-Most guests are out during the day, so you'll usually have the pool all to yourself... however, we are a romantic retreat, so please make sure you respect the quiet hours from 9 p.m to 8 a.m :)!

Peaceful setting, beautiful views!

We loved our stay at The Lookout House! The house was perfect for our family of five. We couldn’t get enough of the views from the deck and loved star gazing at night. The location was secluded, quiet and peaceful. Great location if you want to drive the road to Hana, too! The host(s) were lovely, we felt so welcomed here.

Wonderful winter escape!

We loved our time at the lookout house! It is so remote, quiet, and peaceful. We loved not having any road noise in the background and just the sounds birds, cows (yes, cows!) and the distant ocean. There were rainbows and whale spouts to spot almost every day. And it truly does jumpstart your Hana drive. We hardly met any crowds or traffic. Wish we didn't have to return to a polar vortex, but it was nice while it lasted!

Peaceful family relaxation

This house was all that was promised and more. We loved the chance to relax and be on the road to Hana. We woke up to the best sunrise around with tropical birds singing to us. The pool and hot tub were the kids favorite. We could not have asked for a more peaceful place to enjoy Maui.

What a wonderful place to stay in Hawaii. We stayed for 3 nights to get a jump start on the Road to Hana but this would be perfect to do any and everything on Maui. Such a beautiful spot, home was very well appointed and very secluded.

This is a perfect spot for a family. You could get all your food in town and enjoy youre whole stay at this place. The staff was extremely nice and good with communication. The host went above and beyond and were more than accommodating to our stay. I would say if youre looking for a place with a pool and amazing views this is it. Dont miss this one. 10/10 for a reason!

Huelo lookout house

Our stay was amazing! The views were great, hosts were always available if needed, and very welcoming. It’s a great jump start to the road to Hana. Plenty of space for a large family, really great get away from hustle and bustle of town. We piggy backed this off of time at Ka’anapali and it was great to get both experiences in for a fabulous balanced trip ❤️. Hawaii is truly one of a kind!

A spectacular property, best for adults

This property is just amazing. It is part of a "compound"style that is best for couples and not large families and its a more quiet, peaceful, serene location and while it has a pool its not heated and it more of a relaxing than boisterous place. Cannot recommend it enough for relaxation, beauty and the most beautiful part of the island, The owners are amazing as well

Absolutely amazing place and hosts!

I've been going to Maui some 30+ years, and I am not a cheerful reviewer; so my review comes with some weight and with some experience -- this place, and the hosts, is an absolutely outstanding gem of Maui. Everything one could say good about a vacation retreat (hosts, quality of the place and surroundings, beds, interior, exterior, feeling, ambiance, countless little sweet and touching details) - all is in there. Absolutely recommend! Thank you Kari and team!!!

Sharon was an incredible host. We were greeted at our arrival with flowers strewn all around the house, bottle of wine, chocolate macadamia nuts, bread and eggs to make breakfast. It was a beautiful welcome to her house. You’ll enjoy beautiful views of the ocean, lush greenery, flowers, palm trees, etc, It was a marvelous way to wake up each morning loving the sunrise and gorgeous sky. I can’t wait to return.

Nothing short of spectacular

I cannot speak highly enough about Sharyn, Jeff, and their stunning property. When you think Hawaii, THIS home and its location are precisely what you picture. The added touches left (chocolates, fresh coffee beans, snacks, games, etc) made my family feel so at home and welcome. Sharyn was communicative and very helpful for giving tips on fun places to go and if you read the welcome book left you'll also find some of the best places to eat! If you want to see the natural beauty and non-tourist areas of the island then don't hesitate: this is the place for you!

Family Time in Paradise

Wow! What an incredibly beautiful property! The lush natural landscape and the colorful decor of the spacious home truly represent the highest sense of a tropical paradise. Our family of 8 appreciated how clean the home was on our arrival and we made great use of the well equipped kitchen during our stay. The strong WIFI connection made a few work hours painless and the consistent hot water was a pleasant surprise, considering our relatively large group. The owners were friendly and accommodating and ultimately Huelo Point Lookout was a wonderful location for our family to spend valued time together!

off the beaten path

Our family truly enjoyed this property. It was centrally located to be able to explore all areas of Maui. It is off the road to Hana which makes that trip a bit easier. Loved the close proximity to Paia, and Makawao. Our favorite beach was just out of Paia--Baldwin beach. As you clear Paia, the traffic is much easier/quicker. The house is fabulous. It is much larger than we thought. There are 4 bedrooms plus a bonus bed/day bed in the living room. We were welcomed with fresh fruits, wine and flowers everywhere. Our boys especially loved the hot tub. It was so quiet which is exactly what we wanted after a day of busy. I can't say enough about this property. I highly recommend it.

About the host

Hosted by Sharyn

Host profile image
Jeff is a retired dentist - now he specializes in counseling and is expanding his hypnosis practice into Subconscious Training. (Previously he used these skills in working with phobic patients in dentistry - but these skills have much wider applications and he's having fun expanding them). Sharyn is an actress, writer, speech therapist, permaculturalist & interior decorator. At the moment, she's enjoying theatre improv, comedy sketch writing, and is working on her next one-woman show (for post-Covid times, of course). We have one young son, Kai Nalu, aged 23. And also an older son, Adrian, who lives in England with his lovely German wife, Antje and their 2 totally cute kids. We're too young to have grandchildren! aaaggghh!!! But what a treat!

Why they chose this property

Huelo Pt Lookout is an off the beaten path, wild and wonderful part of Haiku. Who could resist? We have a constant trade wind, so we never 'bake' like the west side ... and here the landscape is lush, so it's easy to do our organic gardening. We wanted a Maui dream escape, but also wanted some conveniences, and these we have aplenty! A perfect combination.

What makes this property unique

Privacy. relaxation and, these days, SAFETY & SECLUSION are things that are priceless. So many people find they rediscover those things, when they stay with us. Romance too, of course. All our spaces are specifically and lovingly created for maximum privacy, so you feel that you're our ONLY guests! This is the natural part of Maui - not 'manicured' or 'manufactured' to be part of a Hollywood image. Here, you discover the 'real' Maui - exotic ... waterfalls ... bamboo forests ... soaring ocean cliffs ... nesting seabirds ... wild ocean ... what we dream of, when we say 'Hawaii'. Here, you'll feel 'remote', but still enjoy the conveniences of having access to 3 small towns (Pa'ia, Makawao and Haiku) for easy grocery pickup, P.O., delightful boutiques & fun restaurants.
