Opportunities in Hana

Topics

The weekend before last, the Jalbert family had an opportunity to head out to Hana with some friends for a couple of days. We were celebrating Billy’s wife’s birthday at the Waianapanapa cabins. Every time I go out to Hana, it is a blissful experience. The natural beauty and the pace of life combine to give me a sense of deep relaxation that I have felt at few other places on this planet. These same factors are what make Hana an appealing place for a full time residence or a second Home. Hana isn’t for everyone. The relative seclusion and absence of shopping and night life might deter some. However, those that are seeking a simpler life may find a home on the Eastern End of Maui. There is actually some pretty good inventory to choose from in Hana. Here are some of the listings that I think might be worth a look.


Beautiful setting from the deck of a home in Maka’alae

MLS 335905-This is a property that was recently listed by our office. Set on 9.5 acres up in the foothills of Maka’alae, this house and cottage offer a green, quiet escape from the world. The main house is a 2 bed/ 1.5 bath custom plantation home. The home features an open and airy floor plan, cathedral ceilings, hardwood floors and custom stone fire place. A large screened and covered lanai and expansive deck make for great outdoor living spaces. There is also a nice Bali style gazebo for outdoor contemplation.

MLS 335533- This property strikes me as the best value in Hana at this time. The spacious, two story, cedar home is impeccably built with beautiful hardwoods and lots of high end amenities. It features one of the more robust private energy systems that I have seen on island with photovoltaic power backed by wind power and a top of the line quiet diesel generator.

For those that are not into horses, there are conversion plans for all of the different horse features of the property. The property has a variety of a fruit trees and a raised vegetable garden area. The best part of the home may be its setting. It is located in the beautiful Maka’alae area of Hana on a prominent knoll. The views are nothing short of spectacular.

Hotel Hana Condos View

Hotel Hana Condominiums- There are some luxury buyers who appreciate the spas and other amenities of Maui resorts like Wailea and Kapalua. However, they also want to be a little further away from the crowds. The condominiums at the Hotel Hana might be a good option. These beautiful and spacious 3 bedroom town home condos boast great views and high quality finishing. Owners have access to all the amenities of the Hana Hotel. The hotel has been rated one of the best small spa hotels in America.
