Stunning!
We chose this place for the second half of our anniversary trip. In our travel experience, it is completely unique and absolutely worth it! Since we’re both hot sleepers, my husband and I were concerned at first that we would be too warm at night without any air-conditioning; but you open up the walls to catch the breezes, and they have fans on site, and we both slept wonderfully well. It’s an amazing place to get into the rhythm of nature: we went to sleep shortly after dark, we got up at dawn, we enjoyed the view from each one of the decks, drank our coffee and ate our meals and were just incredibly at peace. The caretaker was also so kind and helpful!

Paradise
This is the kind of place I wish no one knew about. My perfect paradise! But then, if no one knew about it, John would be out of business and I wouldn't be able to go back there. So here you go: When you sit on the patio of the Pole House you overlook the forest towards the ocean. That is pure relaxation! The house is beautifully decorated, I am sure it has been featured in one of the famous magazines. The pictures don't do it justice. There is a full kitchen with pots and pans, knives, cutting boards, and anything you need. The king bed is comfortable with a high-quality, thick memory foam mattress. The house was very clean upon our arrival. John is a wonderful host and quick to answer any questions. He even made us delicious pancakes one morning. There is beach furniture, bodyboards, and beach towels, and I am sure that if you need anything, John will have it. The windows open up completely, you get the feeling of being outside even when you are inside. There is a wonderful breeze that goes through the house all day. Before you book, make sure this is the right place for you: because you feel outside when you are inside, the outside will also come inside. There will be geckos and bugs inside. Nothing major (cockroaches or anything gross) but you'll have to clean up your crumbs before the ants find them. There is also almost no way of keeping the mosquitos out. But the mosquito net around the bed keeps you safe at night. For my husband and me this is a 15 out of 10!

Amazing Stay
This is such a wonderful property. So unique and feels so secluded. The doors that surround the space open entirely to nature. We slept every night with all the doors open and the breezes kept the space so comfortable. John, the host, is one of the most accommodating we’ve ever had. He is so readily available for anything you need and always has great restaurant recommendations and things to do in the area. I would highly recommend this beautiful and unique property. And will stay here again if I’m ever in Maui.

An absolute dream!
My family and I were blown away by the views and location of the Pole house. It was the quiet and serenity we needed from our busy lives in Los Angeles. Being able to open all the doors and smell the fresh rain, see the sunset over the trees and the ocean, was absolutely breathtaking. I also had such admiration for all the furniture and reclaimed wood pieces in every corner. Every piece felt so special and unique, and added to the experience of feeling you were in a very special space and not just a hotel room. My son loved the swing in the living room and my husband and I enjoyed our coffee in multiple spots on the balcony, there were literally no distractions- just the sound of the trees blowing and the birds chirping! The location is also perfect for activities planned in the upcountry. We went ziplining about 10 minutes away, Twin Falls also about 10 min away, and it's located at the beginning of the road to Hana. It's also close to a cute store/ restaurant Jaw's- where we stopped multiple times for a pizza! Thank you John for sharing this slice of heaven with us, we have memories that will last a life time! We will be back!!

Terrific accommodation and accommodating host
This is a lovely property with a fantastic view. It was spotless when we arrived. The kitchen included just about everything we needed. When we wanted a couple of additional items (a measuring cup and spoons), the responsive and amicable owner brought them right away. He also lent us an object our friends needed for their wedding a few blocks away. A great stay!

Memorable Maui Stay
This was our FAVORITE place to stay during our 4 island - 4 week trip. This home is beautifully designed decorated and constructed. There is beauty in its simplicity but you will have everything you need. The views are spectacular and we loved the location near Pa’ia, the Road to Hana, and Haleakala. My only regret is we couldn’t stay longer.

Great spot to get away
My wife and I traveled to Hawaii for our first time and choose to stay here. It was a fantastic experience. Being able to see the ocean from our deck was awesome. John was a great host and offered great restaurant recommendations and made sure we had everything we needed for our excursions. The location felt secluded and away from major tourist areas which is what we wanted. Very peaceful. Would highly recommend!

The place was exactly what we were looking for - beautiful, open to nature, care in every detail and away from the touristy parts of the island. Reading in the hammock swing for hours looking out over the treetops to the ocean was an absolute dream, and John was incredibly gracious, communicative and helpful. We would love to come back!

Peaceful Haven
We really enjoyed our relaxing and refreshing stay at the Pole House. It is unique in every way and beautifully built. Felt surreal taking in the amazing views from the balcony, including the gorgeous sunrise and sunsets. Loved waking up to the cool breeze, sounds of nature, and panoramic views of the sky and surrounding forest. It was the perfect location for our Road to Hana and Haleakala adventures. John, the owner, was very welcoming, kind, and accommodating. He made sure we had everything we needed and more. Enjoyed our conversations and listening to his stories. He was a very gracious host and we appreciated his helpful suggestions. Thank you, John, for a wonderful, memorable getaway.

Beautiful Home in the Rainforest
We had a wonderful 2 week stay at the Pole House. The beautiful house with cathedral ceilings opened completely to the outside and you really enjoyed the feeling of being in the rainforest. The house is a little rustic but that just added to the charm. Though in a neighborhood with houses around, the view was nothing but rainforest and the ocean in the distance. Rainbows over the forest were spectacular. The host was always available and was very helpful and informative. The location was very convenient to the road to Hana, and the beach at Hookipa.

Second time staying at this amazing place
The pole house is one of the most unique and amazing places we have stayed at. In addition, John is an amazing host. He is very down to earth, has great stories, and works hard to create a great environment for his guests. Last time my wife and I visited Maui we stayed here. We enjoyed it so much that we planned our second visit to Maui based around being able to book the pole house. We love being able to open up all the doors, the view of the trees, the ocean in the distance, and the quiet neighborhood. While we had many adventures on this trip: hiking into Haleakala, driving and hiking the northwest area, hiking south of Kihei, and enjoying the beach - the pole house is our version of paradise and we plan to stay here again on our next trip to Maui.

A little slice of paradise. Private and serene yet close to all of the things that we wanted to see and do. Every second we spent in the home seemed like something out of a dream. Beautifully appointed. We particularly loved the way that we felt surrounded by all of the sights and sounds of the jungle. Felt like we were staying in a luxury treehouse with an ocean view. John was a fantastic host. Attentive and friendly without being intrusive. Highly recommend.

Treehouse on Maui
We had an absolutely incredible stay! It can be a little hard to find but only because it is so private and secluded in the best way. But that was no issue because our host John was there to help from the very beginning, as he continued to do throughout our entire stay, sending up grocery items and fresh fruit. It rained our whole trip but it was no issue because we didn’t even want to leave. About 10-20 minutes from groceries & restaurants. Wonderful wonderful stay!

The listing does not do it justice!
This is an exclusive,isolated paradise that John has built. Although in a residential neighborhood,it's set deep inside a beautiful plantation with lots of incredible plants and trees. It's high up above the surrounding area and offers views of lush canopies and then irth coast ocean. Location is peaceful and isolated but close enough to local town Paia and literally at the start of the road to Hana we managed to drive to haleakala and also the south coast easily from here too. Nearest sandy beaches are a 15 min drive away but surfing beaches are closer . The house itself is far beyond what the listing shows. It's the highest quality of design with expensive wood work throughout and an impressive sliding door system on 3 of the 4 walls, allowing fascinating natural air conditioning. Lots of beautiful sculpture work and art around and unique is an under. John himself is a great guy. He made himself available to us and is very interesting as well as helpful. We personally don't enjoy interacting with hosts but the little time we made to speak to him, he was very generous and fun. Just a note to ignore the woman complaining about ants. Shocking how petty people can be. The property sits in the most pristine natural landscape and is open air if you leave the sliding doors open. Of course there would be insects but all we had were ants crawl over some open banana bread we left out of the fridge. No drama at all! Not sure when we'll be back in Maui but we'll stay here again.

Fantastic peaceful location with ocean view
My wife and I loved our stay at the Pole House. I will start with the view. You are elevated and there is nothing but green between you and the ocean. Sunsets are fabulous. The wrap around deck is so serene. It is utterly quiet other than the rooster and other birds. The house is an open air design. We chose to open it up during the day and close it up at night and had no issues with bugs. The kitchen, bathroom, shower, etc. are all really good. The online photos are accurate. The owner John has lots of extras he can loan you for activities. We borrowed yoga mats and weights to use in the morning. Also thermoses for hiking. He had a lot of beach and recreational items. If you need something just text him and it shows up. Next is location. It is about 30 minutes from the airport. This is the green lush side of the island. The occasional afternoon rain shower was gorgeous. You are just a few minutes from the Hana Highway. It took us an hour and fifteen to make it to the the Haleakala summit for sunrise and a once in a lifetime experience. The town of Haiku is about 10 minutes away for restaurants and groceries. Paia and the beaches are not much farther. It is a perfect base to explore from. In summary this is a fun stay for adventuresome couples looking for something out of the ordinary.
