Why we love Kula

This is upcountry Maui. Far from the resort crowds, Kula is situated at 3,000 feet above sea level on the slopes of the world’s largest dormant volcano. Cooler temperatures and rich soil combine for excellent gardening opportunities to suit a self-sufficient lifestyle alongside the many farmers and ranchers of the area. Purple blooms of jacaranda trees paint the hillsides in Springtime. Most homes at this elevation are equipped with a cozy fireplace, yet the beach is only about a 20 minute drive away. Expansive bicoastal views can be found in nearly all the upcountry neighborhoods here. Some of the best rated schools on Maui can are located upcountry, making it a great community for families.
