I did indeed enjoy my stay at Hana Inn (formerly Joe's Rentals) during the 2 nights in January 2023…read morethat I was in East Maui. Great accommodations and clear instructions on procedures and policies that they send and communicate via e-mail. Also a wonderful location in the center of Hana Town. Loved how they had the kitchen set up and there was instant oatmeal and coffee among other things provided. In this post-COVID era, you are assigned exclusive use of a bathroom. Codes are provided in the e-mail a few days prior to your arrival...one is for the downstairs main living room and kitchen, and the other is for your room and assigned bathroom. The rates are reasonable and much cheaper than the resort or even other B&Bs nearby. I guess the only issue was having to deal with any mosquitos, knowing this side of the island tends to be more lush compared to places like Kihei and Lahaina. Luckily, I did have my own mosquito repellant, but maybe for those who are more prone to mosquito bites and may have forgotten to pack some with them, perhaps some bug repellent spray could be provided. Anyways, I hope to stay at Hana Inn again sometime down the road. It sure beats having to deal with the crazy and bad traffic where I live in Honolulu.

We stayed here for one night in November while making the loop drive on the Road to Hana. We stayed…read morein room #2 downstairs. We were immediately greeted by the friendly host/owner. The house and property are lovely and well maintained. I especially loved the fresh fruit provided (papaya and lilikoi) in the morning and eating it for breakfast on the beautiful front patio. There's a communal kitchen so you can talk and get to know fellow guests. The affordable price was also much appreciated!

Gourmet dinners with gorgeous view at local restaurants. The night sounds of waves on the rocks is therapeutic. The Bayhouse itself is secondary to the experience but fully equipped for lounging, napping, sleeping, reading, stitching (my wife), relaxing. Do you see a theme here? Located "on the rocks of the bay" so you are up wind from everything. This means no noise at all but the sea. We even prepared a few meals in the perfectly equipped kitchen. Everything clean and arranged for your stay. Only mistake we made was not to book for a month. I'll correct that next time. Email me anytime for more.

If you've decided to stay in Hana, rather than make it a pit stop on a day trip from another part…read moreof the island, then there are a few things you should understand. Hana is "old Hawaii," what it was like years before noisy tourists came demanding to be entertained with silly luau's and high-rise hotels filled with mini bars. The pace is slow, the natural beauty is stunning, and there are many places to see, but if you really want to get off the grid, this is the place. If not, don't stay in Hana, and try and find your aloha somewhere else. Bayhouse Hana is one many accommodations that you'll discover on Uakea Rd. My wife and I stayed at Tuttu's House, just one house up, for a few nights and were delighted when we entered the property. It's run by husband and wife Bill and Anita, who keep the unit clean and modern. All of the appliances worked, the view from the living room is fabulous, and there's a place to sit outside to enjoy a meal or BBQ. There's an upstairs unit that is under renovation, and occupied by a quiet local tenant. Just a few other tips before I end the review... Getting to and departing Hana. There's always been two roads in and out of Hana, but the less windy road is now better paved. Unfortunately, the mini tour buses that flock to Hana daily, use this road to leave town. The road is very narrow in parts, and the tour buses don't always share it or follow driving rules. They're in a hurry to get a bus load of cranky tourists back to their resorts, giving info over their headsets, and not paying attention to oncoming traffic.The good news is that only happens during the first ten miles out of Hana, or until the road straightens out, but that can be a very stressful hour if you don't plan it right. Leave Hana in this direction early (before 9) or in the late afternoon.

The hospitality you receive from Gale and Michele is outstanding and is one that would be hard to beat. It is located perfectly for going to the town of Hana where you can find a variety of things to do and places to eat including street vendors for amazing food. You are within walking distance of the famous Red Sand beach and Hana Bay Beach park. You will find yourself dazzeled by all there is to do close by. Fun in the sun at 82 degrees in November. What a great time. Thank you Gale and Michele.

We planned to spend a day driving and sight-seeing, arrive in Hana for the night, and then get up bright and early to hit Haleakala National Park further on down the road. This is the place the we booked in Hana, and we were seriously glad we did. First of all, just as promised, we got an amazing view of the beach. It's across the street from the Bay, and at 5:30 or 6 A.M., I walked down to snap some pictures. Straight out of my camera, they looked like postcards. Easily one of the best sunrises I've seen in my life. As for the place itself, it feels less like a rental property and more like a home. The kitchen was stocked with some basic non-perishable items (extra-virgin olive oil, salt, pepper, bottled water in the fridge, some A1 sauce, etc.) and enough supplies to make a meal yourself (regular and ceramic knives, foil, cookie sheets, I think a few pots, a baster, and a scrub-brush for the sink). We went into town and got steaks and potatoes. Broiled and baked them in the oven without a problem. There's a good-sized TV in the living room with a good selection of movies (The Mask, Stripes, The Dark Knight Rises, almost surprisingly, The Red Violin...) and a DVD/Blu-Ray player. The couch can fit about three people, and folds into a bed. Obviously not the best bed (more like a cot), but it's an option. The bedroom has a King-sized bed with comfortable sheets and memory foam. In height, it looks literally king-sized. The thing is massive. There's a smaller TV in an armoire in this room, a nightstand, and some outlets. About as expected. I was in love with their bathroom, though. Plenty of space, a linen closet (stocked with towels), a nice sink with a clean mirror, and oh my god, the shower. Big enough to fit about three of me (I'm 6'1), wonderfully even water pressure, and it has its own light that makes everything cream-yellow and dreamy. There's a tiny window with a screen in there, just big enough to let in some early-morning air or a late breeze, but high up and small enough that it doesn't feel creepy. Definitely my favorite feature of the place. There's also a space underneath the stairs going out that has a gate. Inside are some boogie boards and I think one surfboard. Didn't test them out, but it's great that they had them. After racking my brain, the only problems I can find with the place are that they could use some hypoallergenic pillows (they had down ones), and the sink lacked a garbage disposal. Didn't really expect one. Just something I noticed. Overall, for the money and the area, I can't imagine a better deal. We only stayed for a night, but from what we saw, it's an excellent spot. If you're doing the Road to Hana, I'd definitely check it out.

There were 8 of us (all over 50) and we were very easily accommodated comfortably (there are multiple "units" here, and they can accommodate 1 person up to 20 people). We stayed in 3 different "units" within the luxurious, contemporary complex, and we were all very happy. We cooked our dinner in each evening (dining table large enough to seat us all comfortably) in our own little kitchen, which was great. Location was great to walk to local cove (very, very close) as well as visit various beaches (about 1 mile walk to Koki Beach). Host Sybil was delightful...not intrusive but always available. As noted by another reviewer, one of the units had an outdoor shower (screened in and very tropical, but watch out for mosquitoes) but the other units all had indoor showers. We will definitely stay here again when we go to Hana.

Of the nine different places I reserved for our Hawaiian adventure, the Hale Hana Bay cottage was…read morethe one that worried me most. The price was right but I couldn't find any photos. The few reviews I read were often contradictory and not always flattering. I considered cancelling before finally deciding to roll the dice. We were all glad I did; we had a great time here. This review and accompanying photographs are my attempt to assist others considering Hale Hana Bay for their Hana lodging. Let's start off with this: Hale Hana Bay is NOT the same as Hana Bay Hale. Hale Hana Bay is a cottage that dates back to the brief period when companies attempted to grow sugar cane in this area of Maui. We couldn't decide whether it smelled more like Grandma's old farm house or the youth camp buildings we bunked in as kids. Either way, we liked it. It is definitely rustic. We could see daylight through a couple cracks in its single wall construction. The furnishings were worn but perfectly functional. The floor was painted wood covered with rugs. It was all fine with us. We weren't looking for luxury. There was a new HD flat screen TV on one of the dressers but we never turned it on. There was no internet access but there was cell service with 3G data access, if I recall correctly (AT&T). The three of us had plenty of room to spread out here. This was the only house we stayed in during our 23 days on the islands; the rest were mostly condos and hotel rooms. It was nice to have a place entirely to ourselves. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals, important due to Hana's extremely limited choices for dining and shopping. (We brought groceries with us from Kahului.) The washer and dryer were a nice convenience as well. (Bring your own laundry soap.) The one bit of luxury we did enjoy at Hale Hana Bay was its shower. It was huge and there was definitely not a 2 gallon-per-minute limiter on the shower head. Even Lewis looked forward to taking a shower here! Our most memorable experience at the cottage was the rain storm that arrived our first night here. Since we all enjoy listening to storms, we considered this a real treat. The wind was blowing so hard the entire house shook from time to time. I had to close the glass louvers facing Hana Bay because rain drops were coming through the screen and landing on the bed 15 feet away. With no attic and no insulation, we could hear every drop hit the roof. Palm fronds wacked the side of the house. A coconut dropped down on the roof as we listened, causing us all to jump. It was a fun little adventure. The next morning a gorgeous sunrise occurred right out the front window over the bay. If you're thinking of spending a night or two in Hana--and I definitely recommend it as there are many things you won't have time to do on a day trip from the other side of Maui--you won't find a better value than Hana Hale Bay. If your tastes run more toward rustic than luxury, it is an excellent choice. Highly recommended.

I put my credit card number down to hold the room, and you pay her cash when checking in at the office, which is her place of residence. It looks like there were 2 rentals on her property, but the one we stayed at was just around the block on Hana Hwy. The 3 of us paid a total of $130. What a deal for an entire house compared to other vacation rentals. THE HOUSE: It's definitely older but was clean. We had use of a 2-car garage, full kitchen, dining room, living room, bathroom (shower but no tub) and 2 bedrooms, one with a queen bed, the other with two twins. There's a small balcony which has a great view of Hana Bay. The sole TV in the living room has basic cable. The cabinets were stocked with plates, cups and utensils. They provided us with towels but we all brought our own. The sofas in the living room were definitely old and sunk badly. The beds were adequate. There are just 2 drawbacks. First, the bedroom with the two twin beds had something in the ceiling & walls making a scratching noise. Ratatouille perhaps? Second, the house is located above the owner's son's place. Quiet hours are 9pm to 8am. You have to be out of the house by 10:45am on your day of departure. You simply go back to the office and hang the key outside the door. OVERALL: Very decent digs for the price. It feels great to support a local business as opposed to the fancier vacation rentals. The owner is a sweet elderly lady who even let us park our car at her office which was closer to the Taro Fest. We'd definitely go back.
