Paia is convenient to the airport but a world away in culture and vibe. We have a 2-minute walk to a secluded beach, and a 1-minute walk to Mama's Fish House, one of the highest-rated restaurants on the island. A 1/4 mile drive to Ho'okipa Beach, one of the world's highest-rated destinations for wind kite/ board sports. Also a nice surf break. On Hana Hwy, the top drive for waterfalls and hiking options. A day trip to Hana is always recommended. Paia also is known for great art and shopping.
