Located on the North Shore of Maui, Ho'okipa Farm is nestled in a small neighborhood just minutes away from Ho'okipa Beach Park. Nearby Haiku town and Paia town, we boast a central location. Enjoy fresh fruit, ocean views, and spacious living quarters after a day of adventures. This 3 bedroom is uniquely set on a small working farm with chickens, goats, and a large variety of produce. Your host lives on-site in the owner's cottage and will be around to share her local knowledge whenever needed! Built by the owners family, this large 3 bedroom has plenty of space for 3 couples or a family. The bed options are: a king in the master bedroom, queen in one of the guest bedrooms and two twins in the last. The master bathroom has a two person shower and the guest bath has a tub shower combo, with the half bath located in the living room. The home offers a well established kitchen and large living space with two additional 'recreation' rooms that can be used as reading spaces or an office. Set on 2 acres of land, there is plenty of outdoor space and a large deck at the front. Enjoy an early evening BBQ while watching the sunset. Your host would be more than happy to show you around the farm and introduce you to the goats upon request. (Please note: farm animals, including the goats, should not be approached without permission) Guests have access to the private shared front yard and we would be more than happy to share our seasonal fruits and produce. There is onsite parking for a maximum of 2 guest vehicles. The property owner and manager live onsite and can be available if you need. Please note that because we are a working farm, we will be around the yard maintaining our orchard and interacting with both the goats and chickens daily. Our goats and chickens are located in the front yard and from time to time they can be heard. Access to the goat pasture is strictly prohibited. The property is located on the sunnier side of Haiku and set within a safe residential neighborhood. We please ask that you are respectful and considerate of our surrounding neighbors. Parties will not be permitted and we do not allow any additional guests or visitors other than those signed on the rental agreement. The neighborhood is only a short drive to grocery stores, restaurants, and several beaches and day hikes. There are dogs, roosters, and children in the neighborhood. Our location is a perfect base for a wide variety of Maui activities. Only minutes away from the world renowned Ho'okipa Beach, popular for surfing, windsurfing and relaxing. We are also situated in a perfect spot to start your day trip to Hana from and close to both Paia town and Haiku Market Place. As longtime residents of Maui, we would be more than happy to help get you in contact with activity specialists such as surf lessons and sail boat trips. Maui Wildfires: By now, almost everyone in the world is aware that on August 8th, Maui experienced a series of wildfires that were fueled by strong wind and downed power lines. We can’t say enough good things about the first responders that have worked tirelessly since then to keep our community safe and connected. Unfortunately, the town of Lahaina was lost in the effort and many homes in Kula have also been affected. Our homes, our staff, and the vendors we work with are all well and safe. We have been working nonstop to aid those we can and we are happy to share details of where you can help as guests of our island too. Currently, the vacant hotels and condos from Kaanapali to Kapalua are being used to house residents that lost their homes and relief workers. For travel to Maui, both our governor and mayor have been encouraging guests to visit all areas other than the west side (Lahaina and Kaanapali to Kapalua). For the south side (Kihei/Wailea), upcountry, and the north shore, visitors can support the local small businesses, accommodations, and employees in these areas which will help us continue to keep our island and our community aided as they begin to rebuild.
