Manaca Travel - Travel with a conscience

Hotel Hana-Maui is located on the pristine East Coast ranching town of Hana on the island of Maui. A heavenly oasis embedded in the 4,600 acres of Hana Ranch. The resort grounds, once the home of a successful sugar plantation, lie nestled between the lush Hawaiian countryside and the Pacific Ocean.

The one-story bungalows that dot Hotel Hana-Maui?s 50 lush planted acres feature: bleached hardwood floors, stone countertops, refrigerator with ice-maker, ceiling fans, expansive tiled baths overlooking private gardens, showers, original works of art by Hawaiian artisans, and wide doors that open onto landscaped private patios. Robes and fresh coffee beans, grinders, and coffee makers are provided in each room. Beds are covered with traditional Hawaiian quilts. All rooms are equipped with a telephone, but there are no televisions to take your attention away from the magnificent surroundings. There is a video-viewing room on the property.
The Garden Rooms are spacious (600 sq ft) with a king-size or twin-bedded option, overlooking the swimming pool with an ocean view.
The Garden Junior Suites are oversized rooms (835 sq ft) with king-sized beds, situated on lushly landscaped grounds overlooking flowering trees and tropical gardens.
The dramatic Sea Ranch Cottages offer the ultimate in privacy and natural surroundings. Located on a bluff, these versatile rooms feature generous decks, most with hot tubs. Floor to ceiling glass windows and doors afford spectacular views from shoreline to mountaintop.

The cuisine at Hotel Hana-Maui is a tantalizing blend of Pacific Island, American, and Oriental cuisine with a fresh, innovative flair. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served in the dramatic main dining room, which features a 35-foot open-beam ceiling and covered outdoor lanai. A Hawaiian show is featured every Thursday and Sunday evening.
The Paniolo Bar is designed to reflect the warmth and comfort of a private living room and is graced with a large covered lanai overlooking Hana Bay.
