Hale Hookipa Inn is my Maui home! Beautiful rooms and great service. Very clean, bedspreads, shower mats and curtains and everything in between are cleaned after each guest leaves. Always extra towels, blankets, and pillows available too. Cherie and her staff are very accomodating and great company too.

Although our actual home is in Kansas, our home for the past 6 years during Christmas vacation has been at the Hale Ho'okipa Inn. We actually stumbled across the property's web site several years ago and from the beginning we have enjoyed many wonderful times. We found the hospitality amazing. Cherie has always gone above and beyond to ensure that we experience true aloha spirit. She created an atmosphere of instant family with everyone gathered around the breakfast table discussing their adventures from the previous day and the plans for the coming day. Cherie is a wealth of knowledge for the Hawaiian culture, activities and events and gave us suggestions every day on new things to see and experience. We especially loved her knowledge of native Hawaiian plants. The property had a variety of flowers and fruits, many that we got to enjoy for breakfast. We learned the history of the house, the family that built it and lived there. We appreciate that Cherie maintained the character of the older Hawaiian home with all of the upgrades to make her guest comfortable. We really enjoyed staying upcountry away from the crowded resorts and getting to experience what it's actually like to live there, not just visit. Being from Kansas, we appreciate the phrase, "there is no place like home" and that's how we feel when we are there.

The Hale Ho-okipa Inn Bed and Breakfast is an outstanding place to stay in Maui.

I was there for a month and was so impressed with Cherie and her care of the Inn. It was as if I were staying at her home and she was an old friend who was taking care of me.

The property is reminiscent of Old Hawaii with Cherie's careful restoration to the period of the 1920s when it was a family residence. It is comfortable and warm and the antique furnishings match that era.

Cherie's stewardship of the land is awe-inspiring. The garden is inviting and maintains the spirit of Up Country. She spends seven days a week in the care of her guests and the property.

Her dedication and commitment shows as she goes about her work taking the time to notice and maintain the Inn at a Five Star Hotel level. It is very obvious that she loves the land and is devoted to its care.

I look forward to another visit to Maui and the Hale Ho-okipa Inn Bed and Breakfast

When we first entered the room, we soon used the bathroom.
The toilet seat was not attached to the toilet, it slide around.
Later that evening, when using the shower, when we stepped from the shower ,we pratically stepped into the toilet! The sink was in-room, very low, and one had to assume a "bent over" awkward position to use it.
Being first time Maui travelers, we assumed good weather, however we arrived at this B&B during a cold snap. We froze in our room all night and were not offered a heater; there was no central heat of course. The owner, a vet at the business, should have been prepared for cold weather at times.
We learned that the owner had hosted guests for 12 years, and we felt that our linens, sheets, towels, blankets, had been in use for 12 years too. Breakfast was continental, serve yourself... fruit,
yogurt, cold cereals, instant oatmeal, marginally adequate.
We travel to B&B's allot, and this is the first time we have rated a property at this level. We are sorry, but maybe we don't like the antique feel, but we want the simple comforts to make traveling a grand experience.
