Couples & Honeymooners. Privacy & Romance! 7 Sacred Pools

Ala Aina Ocean Vista is a unique, 100% solar-powered private ohana with front and back private entrances situated on a former banana plantation. Nestled in an exotic lush tropical setting, our accommodation promises peace and quiet and offers guests sweeping ocean vistas. Enjoy watching the ocean from your king-sized bed surrounded by windows overlooking tropical trees, Hawaiian flowers and rolling green lawns.

Our dwelling offers a fully-equipped outdoor efficiency kitchen on the large private deck. You can cook under the stars! There is an inside private bathroom with marble floors and tiled shower (roomy enough for two), as well as an outside bathtub and shower with lotus pond in your own little garden. Classic board games, Direct TV for those that want television.

We are just 2 miles from, 7 Sacred Pools, aka The Pools at Ohe'o or also called 'Ohe'o Gulch'. Additionally we are 10 miles (30 to 40 minutes depending on traffic) to the town of Hana, where the famous Hasegawa's General Store and the Hana Maui Resort are located.

We are only 30-40 minutes to Maui's black and red sand beaches. Waioka pond, known as 'Venus pools', are a short 20 minutes away and Alele Waterfall is just 2 minutes away.

The best part is we offer each and every guest a romantic and quiet accommodation experience.

We loved staying on this beautiful property. The room had everything we needed and the deck was amazing. The views and property were beautiful. Communication with the owner was great and she was available if needed. The proximity to the national park was wonderful.

Reality surpassed our dreams.
Mercury and Sam were the perfect hosts. We could not have imagined a better trip. They made everything so comfortable and welcoming. We had some necessities provided for us (shampoo, eggs, coffee, etc) which was truly amazing to have available since we arrived late on New Year’s Eve and weren’t planning on a supply run until January 2nd (when most stores would be open). All information about our stay was provided to us through the VRBO app before we arrived and in communications within the property. There were many books, games, a television with all the good stations, and fast internet if we ever got bored of looking at the view (ha). We ate avocados, tangerines, and bananas from the property’s trees (after asking if it was ok). There were several animals and birds on and around the property we enjoyed watching. The landscaping Mercury and Sam have on the property is absolutely beautiful! I discovered at least one new plant every day. We witnessed the sunrise every day on one side of the property and the sunset on the other side.They let us know that ensuring we had all the privacy we needed was the top priority. We opted to ask questions about the area and they were more than happy to give us tips, recommendations, and even a few stories about Hāna and Kipahulu. Thank you Mercury and Sam! We are trying to decide on dates to come back

Paradise!
If you are a nature lover, this is the perfect location to unwind! The drive to the property is long, but the most amazing route I have ever driven. Waterfalls, rain forest, beaches, cliffs, ocean, coves, you name, you see it! The property is located in an area without high volume traffic so it’s very peaceful! You have the ocean in front of you and mountains behind you. It’s so relaxing and calm, just what we needed to give us a break from all the tourist action!

Great place to relax in an out of the way location
The location is unique and worth the opportunity to be in nature with the ambiance to match it. The indoors is about the size of a standard hotel room. The outdoors is for cooking and relaxing with nice views and under the stars. We enjoyed our stay for the 2 nights we were there.

Property is as advertised. Outdoor kitchen was well stocked for a a “camp” kitchen. Property is lovely. Remote and Quiet. Owners very nice and helpful. Bring everything you need with you. The town is not that far in mileage, but it’s slow because of the winding road and the selection is minimal.

Unforgettable
Nothing but peace and relaxation. Exactly what we were looking for. At first we wondered how it would be to work with the outdoor kitchen and eating space, but our first meal immediately dispelled any concern and we were thrilled with the arrangement (and the kitchen is very well-equipped). We walked to the fruit stand (much more than only fruit) about a mile away every day and Mercury has a great list of activity suggestions. We would revisit in a heartbeat.

Beautiful and serene home and property!!
We absolutely loved staying here at Mercury and Samadhi’s peaceful sanctuary. My husband and I stayed here in 2019, and fell in love with it then. It’s a wonderful place to relax and unwind from the craziness of life! Stunning sunrises and sunsets from their property! We highly recommend this VRBO!!

The property is even more beautiful than the pictures. Waking up to the magnificent view from bed each morning, and enjoying a cup of coffee on the porch was a perfect way to start each day of vacation. Sam & Mercury were wonderful hosts.

Tropical Paradise
Our stay was magical! The Hana highway was unlike anything we’ve ever driven but we took our time and it was a beautiful and fun experience. Once we arrived we immediately relaxed. The property has amazing views, Mercury provided a list of fun things to do in the area and we were able to hit most of them during our stay. It was the perfect mix of relaxation and exploring. We also really loved making our meals in the outdoor kitchen.

This place is an amazing place to stay ! The host was great. She wanted to greet us, even though we arrived late in the evening there was fresh fruit growing on the property we were allowed to eat and enjoy the space was clean and relaxing. I would recommend this to any couple trying to get away from the hustle and bustle of the resorts staying here was definitely paradise ! and I look forward to booking this location again!

Mercury is an outstanding host! Everything about our 50th Anniversary stay was absolute perfection! We can’t wait to come back. We spent three weeks in Hawaii and this was the highlight of our trip. I noticed that some of the reviews mentioned the fact that the house and the suite share a deck. We had the deck entirely to ourselves. It is true that the decks connect, however the house windows are heavily curtained and we never felt the slightest lack of privacy. Mercury invited us to use her deck as well and we ate all of our meals there.
