Hana Guest Houses
Three miles south of Hana Town lies the glorious compound of Malanai, named for the gentle breezes that cool its leafy, fragrant gardens and two handsomely restored, plantation-style cottages with ocean views. Hale Manu (“Bird House”) offers two bedrooms with vintage rattan furniture; a modern bathroom with a fun mix of bamboo trim, stone floors, shiplap walls, and tiled shower/tub; an airy great room (living, dining, and kitchen) with soaring beamed cupola ceiling; and a large deck with recliners and outdoor dining furniture. Hale Ulu Lulu (“Breadfruit-Shaded House”), built in the 1900s to house managers of the Hana Sugar Plantation, sports a mix of charming antique details (claw-foot tub, beadboard cabinets) and contemporary luxuries (Brazilian mahogany floors, granite and koa kitchen counters). Both come with stacked washer-dryers, gas BBQs, and beach gear. Hamoa Beach and Waioka Pool (an oceanfront swimming hole also known as Venus Pool) are within a 15-minute walk or brief drive.
