It would be a difficult task to pick and choose which guest comments to post, so we included them all - with very few edits! The comments below in blue are ours. We've really, really enjoyed meeting you. We have had many couples, families and friends from all over the mainland and the world, a few got engaged here, some honeymooned, special anniversaries were spent here and of course, much healing and rejuvenating of spirit. Others just came to have fun! Period. Mahalo to all who shared your thoughts with us and wished us well in our B&B adventure. Also, mahalo nui loa for your suggestions, gifts and aloha.

2000

This was our first trip to the islands, so of course we picked Maui. Our stay on the island and the B&B have been nothing less than magical! The Two Mermaids even went out of their way to sure I had a very happy birthday. They are very kind and extremely helpful. We have had many special memories to take home with us but none so special as just our time together! PS: Take advantage of the many different activities this island has to offer. We did, and with no regrets. Aloha and Mahalo, Nathan and Melissa B. Graham, Washington

Aloha and Mahalo to the two mermaids on the sunnyside of Maui. What a beautiful paradise and staying in your beautiful home made this trip so much more special. The energy here is unlike any other I have experienced. I do believe it is life changing. I know Maui has touched me in a deeply spiritual way and I will keep this energy with me and think of Maui when I need a boost. Spectacular views and slower pace of life speed. I love it here and will hopefully return many times and very soon. Mahalo to the two mermaids for your compassion, hospitality and sincerity (not to mention your friendly smiles) Aloha
Dana and John San Francisco, California (Dana and John returned again in 2001 and are getting married on Maui in October 2002)

What a wonderful peaceful place to stay We loved the view, the hot tub, the great breakfast, the comfortable bed, the colorful magical accommodations. We also enjoyed the many activities and the laid back atmosphere of this part of the island. The two mermaids are very gracious and informative. Everything was just perfect. We are excited to share with our friends this wonderful place to stay. Also thank you for the 25th Wedding Anniversary card. You are so thoughtful! Mahalo for everything. David and Sharon C. Tulsa, Oklahoma

Aloha, the entree week was so great. It was relaxing and exciting at the same time. Our children loved all the details inside and out and especially the cute lizard above the hot tub. The snorkeling was fun and the boat trip to Molokini was a highlight with the snuba diving. Christmas lights around the deck with the warm weather was certainly fun! Thank you for all your hospitality, Mele Kalikimaka 2000!
Patrice, David, Jonathan, Andrew and Hannah, Greensboro, North Carolina (our first guests with kids...unbeknownst to them, it was because of them that we welcome kids now-few B&B's do. They were just great!)

Aloha! The two mermaids must have been sending "guiding" messages when I was checking the Internet for some where magical to stay on Maui. It must have been fate because this is exactly what I was looking for. Wonderful welcome, comfort, beautiful views, calm and total relaxation. Although I was "special" because I was the two mermaids first new reservation, I am sure they go to as much effort for all their guests. I shall be back and will recommend this B&B to friends. Elizabeth H. from Berlin, Germany (Juddee's first official reservation, she was so nervous when she spoke to Elizabeth that she did not realize that the suite was already booked-double booked --whoops! we didn't do it! The previous owners did)

Filippo and Paola from Rome and Milan Italy (They arrived late one night from Italy, only to fly out the next day to Honolulu for a New Year's Eve celebration and then back the next day. Not much going on in Maui at night...! We're not quite sure what they wrote, however, we are sure it was nice, we really enjoyed having them stay with us)

Aloha my dear friends, I can't begin to thank you enough for all you did to make my days here so perfect. I felt so loved and protected. This will be one of the highlights in my memory book. I am convinced that God has chosen you two mermaids to make this lovely home a special place for weary visitors. It is truly a place of refreshment, love, and peace. It has been like living in paradise for these few days. I will never be able to thank you enough. I can only pray that God will continue to bless you as you go about the work of caring for His people who come here to be refreshed. Every tiny spec of this house feels warm and caring. May God bless you both with all his beauty. Love, mahalo, peace and joy! Sister Janet Rolando, Hayward, CA
(Our favorite nun! That 's Janet in the picture, sitting on the Ocean Ohana lanai, we can't hardly wait for her to come back!)

Aloha my new friends, this was just what we needed! Maui no ka oi! I truly enjoyed the time I spent here and especially talkin' story with two great hostesses. I love your home (and I am totally jealous) I wish you both the best with your business and I will do my part to paste your cards all over town in Smell-A (L.A.) Mahalo for your hospitality and warm smiles. PS: The hot tub was awesome and Mom enjoyed it greatly. Mahalo nui loa,
Sue O. and Mom from Los Angeles, California (Sue, where are you? It's right about Maui time isn't it?)

Yes, it is a piece of paradise. It has been like living in a flower. Mahalo and aloha,
Luann and Gary H. from Marrietta, Georgia

Mahalo Mermaids! Maui is gorgeous. The ocean room was fun and bright and delightful. Breakfast in the lanai with the VIEW only the Lord could have created such beauty. We have enjoyed the food, the hospitality, the awesome ocean , the healing time by the ocean, snorkeling, watching whales, hot tubbing, shopping, fragrances of tuberose and plumeria and your beautiful home. Blessings on your venture here.
Dino and Denise P. from Farminfton, Missouri

Mahalo two mermaids, Our 3 day stay here was truly awesome. We have not had trip together like this in a long time. It was truly wonderful and the hospitality and comfortable surroundings of the ohana suite helped complete the experience. Thank you, Tracy and I will always remember and cherish the days spent here. Paul and Tracy McF. from Canada

Two peaceful days, feeling safe from the harshness of the world-sleep when I want, eat when I want, sit quietly with myself-just being here in the present. Thank you for honoring my space. Janet K. from Half Moon Bay, California

We had a wonderful trip/week. Your recommendations for snorkel trips and dinners were great. The Pacific Cafe will be on top of the list with Mama's Fish House on the next trip. We hate to leave.It was great not having to schedule breakfast too. We like being ion our own schedule from one hour to the next. Thanks, Nancy and Larry S. from Tacoma, Washington

Aloha Two Mermaids! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The private lanai and the wonderful view were a real treat. You have a beautiful and peaceful location. Being serenaded by the birds was great. Some highlights of your B&B are the little things like the fresh fruit and beautiful flowers. And of course, the chocolates were a hit. Maui is certainly paradise, this is our first visit and I am sure not the last. Mahalo for your hospitality and the very clean and private suite. The best of luck and continued success with your new venture. Carol and Terry P. from Sherwood Park, AB, Canada

Mermaids, Thank you for the wondeful accommodations. What a great theme room and so clean!! The view was excellent and tourist info you supplied was appreciated. When in Maui again, we'll definitely be back! Pamela and Mark T. from Colorado Springs, Colorado

This was the perfect honeymoon suite! We loved the decor and hospitality and thank you for making our wedding in Maui so special.
Leslie and Weston from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Mahalo Two Mermaids, Although we were only here for three days, the comfort of your home sunk us into relax mode- which was greatly needed. I see a hot tub expense coming my way in Michigan due to the usage we enjoyed in yours. Our thoughts will be with you for continued success. We look forward to our next visit-we will be back to stay longer. Regards, Becky and Michelle, Royal Oak, Michigan

Aloha mai e, you have a place of refuge away from the crowd. I'll be back and I will recommend you to friends. Mahalo for the time with you, nicely done. A hui hou, Kolohe Lani from Wilbraham, Massachusetts

Aloha mermaids, How is life in the sun? Unfortunately, we must return to California where we have heard it is 48 degrees. But we will always have memories and pictures to look back on right? And hey, some of us are coming back as soon as July! You probably don't need to hear this again, but your place is absolutely wonderful. When I am grown, I hope to have something just like this. Now my time here closes but I want to let you knwo that staying herehas been the best Maui experience yet, both for the housing and the people. July, for me can't come soon enough. Always, Ilana
Dearest souls sisters, Mahalo for the wonderful aloha spirit and for this delicious stay. I am thrilled tyo have you in my heart and to to have your home to return to whenever I manage to "come home" to Maui. I look forward to a long and loving friendship together. (Afterall, you are my first mermaids!) Hugs and kisses, Robin and daughter Ilana - the third mermaid from Kensington, California (our new found friends, still waiting for your return)

We were so fortunate that your B&B was available for the one night we needed a place to stay-it was wonderful place to "escape" from the realities of life, even though it was only for a day. I plan on coming back again so I can enjoy even more time at yor B&B.
Linda M. from Houston and Galveston, Texas

What a wonderfully alive and bright and radiant environment. The colours are wonderful in the ohana and we would love to return. Thank you for your warm hospitality-we were truly able to relax here and have an incredible vacation! Many wishes for happiness and success! Thanks again,
Rachel, Kent and baby Devon Victoria, BC

Aloha Mermaids, Wonderful place to unwind at your own place. The suite is decorated just "great"you can't help but be happy and be in a great frame of mind upon awakening amongst such color and giddy decor. We didnít use the pool but the hot tub was just delicious. We love the upcountry, but this was a wonderful place of refuge down on the Sunny Side of Maui. Much luck in your new venture. Thanks a bunch.
Joan and Rich S. from Livonia, Michigan

Every once in a while the heavens open up and send you some places very special. This is one of those rare places. A list of ways that "our" two mermaids dramatically affected our stay in Maui would go on for the rest of this book, thus denying others the opportunity to sing their praises. Suffice to say, their generosity and countless kindnesses truly embody the aloha spirit that otherwise has become in short supply today. Ladies, you have touched us deeply and you will always be with us. PS: Adonica never had to use her SOS pads's a first!!! Thank you. Don and Adonica A. from Vancouver, Canada
(these two got married while they were here -Juddee loaned Adonica her grandmother's pearl earrings for something "borrowed"-one of our favorite memories is watching their morning ritual, walking down the driveway in their jammies with a cup of coffee so they could smoke a cigarette- respecting our no smoking policy)

Mahalo mermaids, We canít begin to thank you for opening up your hearts, your home and your island paradise to us. Our week here has been magical. There are so many things to see and do. We will definitely be back and we will of course, stay with our two favorite mermaids. You are wonderful!
Bill and Diane F. Houston, Texas

Mahalo mermaids, also the new owners "two mermaids" made the stay at the B&B wonderful and very enjoyable. We love this island so much that also the 3rd time was so beautiful that we think of the 4th visit right now. We didnít missed anything that the B&B, we really canít just speak very well about it. We go home relaxed and with the Maui spent of energy. We found again new friends on the other side of the world. Hope we will be coming soon and thanks a lot for all your support you gave to us. Thank you very much, Janine and Marcel from Switzerland
(this was a return visit, they consider the ocean ohana their home away from home. Unfortunately as a result of 9/11 they are not returning this year-we are hoping to see them in 2003. We wondered why they never used the pool-turns out Janine used to be on a synchronzed swim team...she will not get in a pool at all!)

Juddee and Miranda, thank you for letting us stay here for 5 days. Thank you for showing and telling us about Maui. We loved our time with you, scuba was great as were all the suggestions you made. We will have to make it an annual reunion. Jake, Victor and Janice and Frank P. from Alameda, California
(our former neighbors from Alameda! We really missed them when they left-especially 7 year old Jake. We are hoping they will come back soon. Frank promised to replace "that sandwich" with a real burger! Check out Janice's new website www.paredesvanorsdel.com)

Love the special touches, flowers, fruit and that special bread. Mahalo, Carla and Karlene from Hana and New Mexico

Aloha Juddee and Miranda, we have really enjoyed our 3 day stay here with you who provided us clean rooms with nice decorations and a lanai having beautiful panarama. Spa helped us to be relaxed. We lovd your frshly baked banana, pineapple, papaya, coconut, walnut bread. See you again when we will be back. Mahalo nui loa, Tomoko and Hideo, Oahu, Hawaii

Aloha Juddee and Miranda, this was entirely more than I expected at a B&B. Mahalo plenty for your warm hospitality and terrific accommodations, to saynothing of the jacuzzi, the breakfast notes, that bread and the wonderful view. Thanks too for the use of the Hana tape-though not my first time,it made the drive so much more enjoyable than before. Most appreciated of all was the perfect envbironment for the peaceful meditation I sought. the musing and the soaking in of the islandís beauty send me back home to create and warmer , friendlier reality for myself. Hope to be back againóin less than 10 years. May god be with you and your work and joy of others. Marilyn S. from Florida (Marilyn happens to be here right now-this time she is in the Poolside Suite-you'll have to look for her comments on that page)

Loved all the happy bright colors! Your home is spectacular! The breakfast was delicious We all loved and enoyed our stay with the mermaids in Maui--wish it could've been longer, I hope to visit again. Joe and Heather C. from Warren, Michigan
and
Thank you so much for a wonderful stay in Maui. You have such a beautiful home-thanks for sharing it with us. We hope to come back and stay with you again soon. Sara and Todd from East Lansing, Michigan

What a great place! The mermaids have the real aloha spirit! Thanks so much for accommodating us on such short notice. Mahalo,
Rick, Erica, Allison and Ricky A. from Pollock Pines, California

Aloha mermaids, thousands of thanks once again for providing us with a perfect paradise--even if it was only for 10 days. I am glad that we were able to share your birthdays with you. party and all. Mahalo for all the great times, I'll miss you guys, Always, Ilana, mermaid # 3
Cher femmes de mer, As always, mahalo nui loa for theincredible aloha. The Ohana truly feels like home away from home at this point...but how wil I face the day without your fresh fruit and papaya bread? We loved our trip to Hana and hope to do it together next time. Also , new to us on this trip -- surfing (whoopee!) Until next time, Robin and daughter Ilana from Kensington , California

With nine years experience staying in B&B's this is by far one of the best. The mermaid's attention to detail is unmatched and the comfort of the room makes you not want to leave. We have enjoyed our stay here and dread returning to Michigan. Aloha and Mahalo,
Amy and Owen from Livonia, Michigan

Miranda and Juddee, as you first return visitor to your wonderful B&B, let me say that I'll be back for more. I feel a real genuine connection to this place and to the two mermaids! I should know, Iím a merman! Thanks so much for making my familyís first visit to Maui a comfortable and memorable one. It was so special to have us all under one roof. Love, Jeffrey B. from San Francisco, California
(and our favorite merman-this was his second visit, this time he brought the family, Mom, Dad, sister Joann and nephew, they stayed in the Poolside Suite, the whole family had all of downstairs, it was just really lovely being around a caring family. Jeffrey has already booked his 3rd visit here in October)

Dear mermaids. We were originally slated to stay at another B&B, but ended up here by fortuitous accident! Thankfully we did, because this place added greatly to our enjoyment of Maui and our honeymoon. Everything-from the delicious home made bread waiting for us every morning to the hot tub every evening was wonderful. Thank you for being gracious hosts. We hope to see you here again someday. Mahalo,
Sara and Tom C. from Randolph, New Jersey

Ladies, what a nice home. We truly relaxed and ernjoyed ourselvs while we "worked" the Maui writers conference.
Lori and Max from New York City and Lisa from Miami

Dear mermaids, Juddee and Miranda; Thanks to both of you for heloing to make this the bst trip for me and my family ever. Olivia loved all the colorful decorations and morning home made bread. We will forever remember this place where Olivia started walking. Our stay here far surpasses any experience we might have had at one of the fancy hotels. You have set a very high standard by which we will judge our future accommodations. We look forward to returning soon. Our best to you and your family. Mahalo with love, John, Yanhui and Olivia M. from Atlantic Beach, Florida
(isn't that great? You'd think we paid them to say that! It made us really happy to hear that Olivia took her first baby steps here)

Dear mermaids, thank you for a wonderful stay! The breakfast every morning, the wondeful towels and the fun dÈcor made for a relaxing stay. Thank you again for being gracious hosts, Until the next time, Mary and Mark from Columbia. Missouri

Thanks so much for the wonderful breakfasts and the relaxing stay we'll remember always. Kelly and Michael D. from Manassas, Virginia

Greetings! We certainly did relax between daily outings to some interesting places. We"did" the Hana Road and highly recommend it. Start early and follow the driving and discovery tour book (in room). Lahaina was very quaint though a little touristy. We never had a dull moment. We even had an evening of hot tubbing and eating "take out" in. All the best to the gals who made this all possible, we're forever impressed and grateful.
Fran and Jack N. from St. Petersburg, Florida

Dear mermaids, Thank you, thank you , Great R & R for me, this was perfect for me-a joyful amd beautiful base for me as I relaxed. Wonderful breakfasts and such pleasant suroundings. Thank you for thinking of so many amenties, fondly, Carol C. from Boise, Idaho

Dear mermaids, thanks so much for everything. We had a great time. We loved the hot tub. The breakfasts were fantastic. We felt so comfortable-it ws our home away from home. David and Mark from Media, Pennsylvania ps: my favorite little touch was the "you did it" sticker on the potty paper roll!
(LOL...yeah, Juddee thinks the little stickers are kinda fun too...and you thought you left mom at home, did ya?)

Aloha mermaids, mahalo nui for making our much needed escape from"city reality"! Boy was it an amazing trip. We had such a special time here and all of your personal little touches really topped off our time here. We actually rested and relaxed. Imagining the ono bread and fresh fruit every morning, what a treat. Thank you for taking care of us. Once again we love this island, we love staying here with you again, we love to see your warm smiling faces. We love the amazing magical energy that emanates from the people and the flowers, the water, the everything! We are so fortunate to have our paths continue to cross with yours and we are truly excited to get here again, and soon. We will pass your friendly wonderful paradise home on to family and friends. Again mahalo nui , thanks so very much. Dana and John, from San Francisco, CA (as we mentioned above, Dana and John are back on Maui in October to get married!)

Thank you for such a wonderful stay. We will be sure to recommend to everyone we know who is coming. Thanks,
Jen, Ian ,Cath, and Ann from San Francisco, california

Juddee and Miranda I only wish we could have know about this great and not to mention darling place sooner. Itís been a great stay. Wonderful hot tub and beautiful view. Thanks to you both for making it so comfortable. I donít know how many times each of us asked one another ì if we had seen the lizard perched on the deck?î Great little touch. We had to return here and when we get home weíll certainly spread the word about this ìgreatî place. Thanks so much, John and Lola P. from Pleasant View, Utah

Juddee and Miranda (mermaids) what a great place to stay-e appreciate your hospitality and clean accomodations. Best wishes for the future to your both. Should you come to Utah, give us a ring, weíll show you the sights in our beautiful Northern Utah, home of the 2002 Winter Olympics.
Greg and Deanna N from North Ogden, Utah

Miranda and Juddee, We thoughly enjoyed our time (brief) in your home. Our suite was exquisite! We lovd the color, the decorations and elements which made this feel like or home (books, guitar, fresh cut flowers) Your attention to details and generosity were much appreciated. We canít think of a beter way (or place) to celebrate our 11tha anniversary. Thank you for making it special. Nancy and Cindy from Monrovia, California

Maybe we an stay longer next time. Thanks for the turkey sandwiches (just like mom) they will make our travel that much nicer. Aloha, Denise and Chan from Wichita, Kansas

Aloha, we had a marvelous time staying at your charming Bed and Breakfast. The fresh fruit and bread in the morning started our day perfectly. Thanks for all your cheerfulness and attention to our needs. Juddee, I especially enjoyed learning about rituals you do and may later contact you for ideas as I pursue ministry. Mahalo, Leah F. from Atlanta, Georgia

Thanks so much for the warm welcome and the happy atmosphere. I must say that the comfort of your home has rivaled Mauiís best natural attractions. We had a hard time leaving the lanai and sofa. You ladies are wonderful, I wish you continued success. Mahalo, Chris from Atlanta, Georgia

Juddee and Miranda, We all had a great time staying here,. Thanks for the use of the boogie boards and all your help. Mom got in the hot tub and she was a lot happier than before! I love your sense of color and I think our house should look like it. Wonderful stay,
Cameron, Su and Wayne R. from Ashland, Oregon ps: the mints were fantastic!! (They are! We use melt in your mouth Maui mints-da best!)

I canít get enough of that bread! Recipe? Please?? Ok, well, anyhow-we would love to stay longer but we are going to Hana, This island is so diverse that it's hard to stay in only one spot. Thanks for a great stay. Chris (and Sissy) from Chicago, Illinois

Thank you for this wonderful setting-relaxing, great hot tub! Pool! Boogie boarding! Comfy bed! Very clean and sweet decor. I love all the details! Thank you very much for creating this special space. We are refreshed and ready to embark on our next adventure. Thank you for a piece of heaven
Marla BB and Nancy from Amherst, Massachusetts

Can't speak or write Hawaiian but "love"in any language sounds the same and we love you both for your warm and gracious hospitality!! In my 81 years Iíve been to many places and stayed in some great ones but never been treated so lovingly!! Our suite was so homey and colorful and when I return I hope to again relax in the same surroundings! Aloha and thanks! (Mahalo) Love, Fay and Len C. from Anderson, California

2002

Fifteen days-two islands-four locations-the mermaids were the crowning glory to a fabulous trip. Next visit-ONE LOCATION-RIGHT HERE. Wonderful setting-great breakfast-view-hot tub-and all very affordable. We will definitely spread the word. We wish two mermaidson the sunny side of Maui many years of success and hapiness-you deserve it! Mahalo and Aloha! Mike and Paul from Dallas, Texas

Mahalo to the Two Mermaids B&B- You made our stay here on maui most enjoyable. All the details of your B&B made our stay here feel like home. Breakfast at our doorstep every morning was a special touch. Thanks again and we will keep the Two Mermaids in mind for future trips to Maui.
Joan S. and Casey Y. from Dowingtown, Pennsylvania

Well our time here has come to an end and we are going home today. We have been in Hawai fr two weeks, one week in Kauai and one here. We have seen some of the most beautiful beaches, countryside and flowers..this truly is paradise and we will be back. Our vacation has been perfect and filled with memories to take with us. Thank you for making our stay on Maui comfortable and for the special touches you did. Good luck with your B&B, itís a great place to stay and we will share this with our family and friends. Aloha and Mahalo, Paul and Vicki K. from Portland, Oregon

Juddee and Miranda, Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us. Your wonderful warm hospitality has made our stay here so much more enjoyable. I had been looking forward to the fresh fruit breakfast for so long and I wasnít dissappointed! (would it be possible to send me a basket everyday?) This was a much needed vacation before the baby comes and you helped make it so much more comfortable and relaxing. Mahalo nui loa,
Bryan and Stephanie C. Gresham, Oregon

Juddee and Miranda, What a gift! We were so fortunate to have found this extraordinary B&B in this beautiful island. Love and joy are very evident here ñtruly a work of the heart and soul. So cheerful, so comfortable, and such giving hosts. Our stay here has touched both of us at a very important time of our lives. Thank you so much! Aloha! Jim and Cinda S. from Melbourne, Florida

Juddee and Miranda-we are so happy to find that you two are just as warm and friendly and helpful as your predecessors. We loved this before and still find it warm and charming and comfortable. We hope to visit again-until then. Mahalo and Aloha, Maria and Phil from San Diego, California

We shall miss this place very much, your wonderful hospitality and the hot tub!! There is no doubt we will be back and with more friends to share this lovely place in paradise. Thank you for opening your home to us. Mahalo, Susan and Michele, Minneapolis, Minnesota

Juddee and Miranda, where do we start but mahalo!!!! Our week here was fantastic and you both made sure our day was perfect. We had a truly wonderful time. We will be back and we will make sure we fit in lunch with you. Thank you again, Donna and Raine, Seneca, Illinois
(Guess what these two brought us from the mainland? Krispy Kreme T-shirts and donuts! Yum!! --a guilty pleasure...I call them do nots)

Juddee and Miranda,
the weather outside was frightening,
But you place was truly enlightening
We enjoyed our stay in the hot tub, rain
And wind, let it blow, let it blow, let it blow!
Brad and DiAnna from Denver, Colorado
(it rained...and rained...and rained most of the time...and it hardly ever rains in Kihei!)

Mermaids, I had the best time of my life here. The beachs where fun, but now I am done. I loved the sunsets in the sky, with all the birds flying high, this was the best time of life and I berly used a spoon or knife. I feel like I need a lift, this is like a special gift. Love, Marissa (age 10)

Dearest Mermaids, the energy here is light, loving, spirit lifting and we are both so grateful for a wonderful time! You have thought of every possible thing to bring a smile to your visitors faces. I, in particular adore the chocolate-not to mention the fact that it feels like we are underwater, gently floating. Marissa was in love with the two mermaids hidden in the wall and of course the TV and hot tub were big hits. I am ready to book next year!! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Love, Mindy and (daughter) Marissa from Marin County, California (We are thinking we should start a mother daughter, father son special. It was really wonderful having Mindy and Marissa here. Marissa drew us a wonderful picture in the guest book. Check it out while you are here)

Juddee and Miranda, what a wonderful spot! Absolutely loved the colorful decor as well as the tropical bread in the morning. Hopefully we will be able to get Dad to come back. Annika R.
Wow! He colors, the designs, the cohesion of composition all making it impossible not to feel happy, relaxed, excited, at home far from worry and the overaching urge to stay awhile! Iím taking notes! Glad we are coming back in a few, Alex R.
The first few days were pure pleasure! Thanks for all your hospitality and hot tips (beaches, luau) So glad we are coming back at the end of our week in Maui, see you then! Deb and Hakan R. from Edmonds Washington (The whole family was here! And they all seemed to get along! How great is that? They stayed in the Ocean Ohana and then went off to Hana, then came back to the double room Poolside Suite, look for their comments, such a nice family!)

Attention to detail! Comfortable! Two beautiful mermaids and an amazing home! I loved staying here! Scott G from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Thanks, had a great time snorkeling, diving, exploring, fishing- 400 lb Blue Marlin, 2nd biggest this yer so far! Thanks again!
Steve and Colleen from Lakeland, Minnesota

Dear Mermaids (although we are beginning to wonder if mermaid #2 really exists!) What more can we say but, thank you, thank you, thank you and mahalo for making our stay so incredibly wonderful. The whole family was enamored ñevem some members that weren't staying here. We'll definitely see you again! Todd (Chicago) Angela (New York City) and Nyaka (London) (I do exist! I do exist! Everytime I was here you all were out! Next time, we'll fire up the barbecue and talk story)

Mahalo mermaids for : your deep generosity, religious ice cream experiences, much laughter, remarkable accomodations, fabulous breakfast and especially sharing your dreams and your community with us. You two are really an example of what can happen when heart and courage go after a vision.
Faith and Marita, from Richmond, California

Aloha Mermaids, this was the perfect place to spend our honeymoon. We love every aspect of your place, especially the grill and hot tub and the geckos that came to visit us everytime we sat outside. Maui has so much to offer there is no way to get it all done in a week so I guess we'll just have to come back! Sadly, the rain cancelled our plans of one last morning snorkel. So many fish, so little time. Mahalo, Stephen and Jen F. from Monticello, Iowa
