Why we opened NSL
Throughout our many travels we have made lasting relationships while staying at alternative lodging options and have been inspired by other world travelers along the way. We decide to open a bed and breakfast to providing a similar alternative accommodation where travelers can experience the beauty of Hawaii and all of its adventures while making new relationships and connecting with other travelers on a deeper level with the spirit of aloha. At North Shore Lookout our favorite meaning of aloha is "To consciously manifest life joyously in the present." With that said, our goal is to provide a place to relax and rejuvenate after your adventures and to help you find joy every day you stay with us. Aloha!
The most relaxing, beautiful area. The breakfast was amazing. The sunsets were absolutely stunning. The room was so comfortable. I would HIGHLY recommend.
Staying here was so beautiful and relaxing. The property was quiet, beautiful and comfortable. We will be back!
We stayed in the Makani suite and everything was as expected. Very comfortable bed, which is very important when staying away. It's quite high up from the coast, we were seeing about a 10-15 (F) degree temperature drop from the coast which was just about OK when we were there but would be beneficial in summer. The breakfast was fixed menu options (different each day) and was delicious but this might not suit everyone. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. If you don't have a satnav, research the route beforehand because it's a bit out of the way and we got lost a couple of times. Very nice place, we would recommend.
We spent a perfect 3 days at the North Shore Lookout. Their breakfasts were amazing as was the outdoor hot tub spa. Views overlooking the south shore were incredible, they are nestled in the upcountry away from hustle and bustle of touristy Maui. We enjoyed every minute. Mahalo!
Our stay here was amazing! My cousin and I chose to vacation on Maui for a relaxing getaway and this B&B did not disappoint! The location is removed from the hustle and bustle, so we felt a little secluded (in the best way). It was quiet, and the view is stunning. The grounds are beautiful and incredibly inviting. We spent time by the pool, in the hot tub, and sitting by the fire pit soaking up the amazing weather and overall atmosphere. Since the location is more centrally located, it was easy to get to other areas of the island for the day. Our hosts had wonderful suggestions for beaches, restaurants, etc. Which brings me to the staff!!! They are WONDERFUL! So kind and welcoming. We were greeted with a welcome bag that had beach towels and a custom tag with our names. They were very communicative and clear about any instructions to check in, operate things arrive the property, etc. I cannot stress this enough... The breakfast is AMAZING. We genuinely looked forward to it every morning. Lattes, smoothies, and always a delicious, freshly made breakfast item. We were blown away. Our room (Makani) was clean, spacious, and well stocked. The kitchen area had everything we needed and they had complimentarily snacks and drinks waiting for us. Our room also had two beach chairs, a beach umbrella, and an insulated lunchbox for us to use. There was so much attention to detail that we greatly appreciated. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend staying here. I definitely hope to return!
We were thrilled with the location and the environment. the hosts were great, friendly interested and glad to share. upcountry Maui is a special place.
We wish that we had booked a couple more nights in heaven. Everything here was perfect, seriously it could not have been any better. It takes a lot to get a 5 out of me and North Shore Lookout deserves a 6 out of 5. Thanks for the perfect ending to our Maui vacation
I almost don’t want to share for fear of not being able to book it when I want it next go around but this place was too good to keep to myself. We could not find one thing to be dissatisfied with. The ow era did a great job of anticipating guest needs and desires and making sure they were met. Little details down to “aloha” written in the stored blanket on the closet shelf made this stay magical! You will not be disappointed with your experience here.
Hands-down the best location, best accommodations, over the top attention to detail, love the owners and Mimi the kitty! Our go to place the next time we are in Maui! We needed to get away from life and some peaceful reset the soul days. Just a suggestion that if you have kids please do not book this as most people are here on honeymoon or to get away from the typical screaming kids at the resorts pools. There's a place for everyone and this was it for us so thank you to the hosts we could not have asked for a more perfect place!
Northshore Lookout has been one of the best Bed and Breakfasts that I have stayed at. The host were wonderful and the room met our every need. The room and property were exceptional, and the scenery was breathtaking! We will be staying here again when we return to Maui
