Kula Lodge & Restaurant
The Kula Lodge & Restaurant sits on the western slopes of the Haleakala Crater, more than 3200 feet above sea level. This is a mountain lodge with a rustic feel, giving you a sense of what a Hawaiian paniolo's (cowboy) life was like in this farm town. There are five chalets at the lodge with spectacular views of the entire island of Maui and its surrounding ocean. The restaurant is open seven days a week for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The Kula Marketplace is a perfect place to get local jams and jellies along with fine art from some of Hawaii's finest artists.
