★★★★★ 5/5
“The location was just what we were looking for — serene and peaceful — yet close to all the Maui attractions. It was such a joy to relax at Pineapple Cottage after fun-filled days exploring nature. Steve and Ivy are extremely helpful in giving advice on what to do and where to go the 'local way.' The cottage is cozy, and the view off the balcony is lovely. For us, it was a wonderful 6-week stay!”

“The Pineapple Cottage is amazing… perfect for two couples. The kitchen is well stocked, the lanai is ideal for relaxing, and the grounds are beautiful and private. Steve was super helpful when we had car issues. The location is perfect for exploring the North Shore, Upcountry, Haleakalā, and the Road to Hana. This place truly deserves its 5-star rating.”

“What a jewel to celebrate our anniversary! Tranquil, secluded, and immersed in nature—overlooking treetops, banana trees, and ocean views. The cottage was comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen and thoughtful touches like guidebooks and sunscreen. Steve and Ivy were gracious and nearby if needed. We’re already planning our return.”

“We wish we could give 6 stars! This was a true island paradise. We were welcomed with homemade banana bread, wine, macadamia nuts, chocolates, and jam—what a lovely touch! Mornings on the lanai with island coffee were magical. The location was ideal for all our adventures, and Steve and Ivy were the perfect hosts—attentive but never intrusive.”

“We couldn’t be happier! Everything was spotless, and the views were stunning. Steve and Ivy welcomed us with treats and helpful advice. The location in Paia is close to great restaurants and shops. The kids loved Baby Beach, and we even spotted sea turtles! The cottage was beautifully decorated and very family-friendly.”

“We had an amazing week in Maui’s rainforest. We're not resort people, so Pineapple Cottage was exactly what we wanted. Each day began and ended on the lanai with stunning views and bird songs. It was gorgeous and rejuvenating.”

“We visit Maui often and like trying new areas. This year we chose Haiku and were lucky to find Pineapple Cottage. Tucked down a private road, it felt like a hidden gem. The hosts were wonderful, and we were spoiled with fruit from their garden and Ivy’s amazing banana bread. We stayed three weeks and would love to return again and again.”

“We traveled a long way from Europe and were so glad we chose Pineapple Cottage. Maui is idyllic, and the cottage was welcoming, well-arranged, and had a lovely view. Steve and Ivy were fantastic hosts and made everything easy.” Thank you Cariline, 2nd trip to our cottage
