Uhane Olinda is a beautifully renovated 1908 Hawaiian ranch home in restful and restorative Upcountry Maui. Located two miles above the paniolo (cowboy) town of Makawao and away from the tourist areas, the home offers the ambience of an expansive lawn, large trees and a magnificent ocean view. Verdant ranch land and Anuhea Flower Farm border the property.
The home offers a master bedroom with a queen bed, attached walk-in closet and full bath. The second bedroom has a king bed and shares a full bath with a third bedroom. The third bedroom has a trundle with two twin beds.
There is a is a large living area that opens onto a covered porch. Sunsets from the porch are magnificent with a view of the ocean and West Maui Mountains. The dining table seats six. The dining room with French doors opens onto a deck with a view of the lawn, flower beds and large trees.
The kitchen is fully equipped and the owners leave items in the cupboards that are available for guest use. The laundry is next to the kitchen and laundry soap, spot removal spray and dryer sheets are provided.
There is a covered carport as well as other spaces for parking.
There is no TV reception but there is a TV and DVD player for movie viewing. A selection of movies is in the living room and places to rent movies are noted in the guest information binder. We hope you will just enjoy “getting away from it all”! A portable CD player is available with a selection of Hawaiian music other CDs. Wireless internet is available. Books, games and puzzles can be found in the living room.
The beautiful lawn area is surrounded by large eucalyptus trees and pasture land in which you may see a few cows. Fruit from the orange tree and lime tree may be used by our guests. A swing hangs from the huge camphor tree in the lawn.
There are no neighbors visible from the house. On occasion, the flower farm may make use of the detached garage.
The town of Makawao, two miles away, offers many restaurants, coffee shops and wonderful shopping with a variety of art galleries and specialty stores, including a glass blowing studio. Pharmacies and grocery shopping (with movie rentals) are ten minutes away. The closest beach is about a 20 minute drive. All beach activities are to be found within 30 - 40 minutes. Beach towels are available.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Sterling Church

Sisters and owners, Donna and Sterling, grew up in this family home and visit it frequently. Both currently reside on the mainland, Donna in Fullerton, California and Sterling in Golden, Colorado. Their desire is to share, with others, the beauty and quiet of this unique location away from Maui’s tourist areas.
Why they chose this property
Restorative is the way we describe our Olinda home. It is located in a part of the island few tourists see. It is away from all tourist areas and yet every part of the island is accessible. There is a beautiful green color, coolness and often a breeze not found at the beach that makes Upcountry so enticing.
What makes this property unique
Exceptional beauty away from the tourist areas. Very private. Surrounded by ranch and farm land. A view of the ocean and West Maui Mountains.
