Mangolani Inn, a tropical sanctuary nestled in Maui’s historic plantation town of Paia, announces the completion of its major property enhancements, bringing its island-style accommodation offerings to a whole new level. The two-story boutique inn, which consists of five unique spaces -- a four-bedroom upstairs house, an adjoining mango treehouse (a lock out unit with the option to connect to four-bedroom house), and three separate studios ranging in size from small, medium and large -- has been upgraded with modern touches while maintaining its charming ambiance. Recessed lighting, custom tile, handpicked furnishings, unique art pieces and prime accessories contribute to the overall transformation, adding a new stamp of chic to Mangolani Inn.
One important feature of the renovation work was the addition of proper insulation, creating an effective sound barrier and ensuring privacy. Originally built as a single-family home in 1990, the house lacked insulation, allowing noises such as footsteps or voices to be heard between neighboring rooms. With the recent refurbishment, proper insulation was installed using QuietRock©, a technologically advanced and award-winning drywall panel that incorporates both sound and vibration suppression as well as fire resistance.
When owner Dave Stein acquired and converted the house into a bed and breakfast in 2005, he made basic improvements such as replacing linoleum floors with tile and installing fiberglass shower stalls. The bedrooms, living spaces, kitchens, and bathrooms have now been remodeled with a contemporary aesthetic. The master bathroom, for instance, incorporates natural yet stylish design elements in its light fixtures, flooring, and accents converting it into a spa oasis. Its new brighter space, floating vanities, bathroom fixtures, and pebble tile shower floors exude a sense of zen, relaxation, and pampering. Modern rustic style and texture are infused with the addition of the sliding wooden barn door with a mermaid handle as well as the custom cabinetry treated with a wire wheel brush, giving it the appearance of driftwood.
“This makeover lays the ground for an upgraded experience,” said Mangolani Inn Owner Dave Stein. “With these rich enhancements, we are able to provide our guests a comfortable stay in elegant surroundings while staying true to the Hawaiian hospitality.”
Drawing design elements from the natural outside environment, the remodeled bedrooms and living spaces are accentuated with coastal inspired décor and wall art depicting typical Hawaiian scenes. Newly appointed kitchens/kitchenettes boast eye-catching backsplashes, brand new appliances, and granite countertops. Small changes but notably impactful features have also been added throughout the inn, anticipating the needs of the present-day traveler. An ingenious way of maximizing space while yielding functionality, for example, is the floating corner desk found in a studio’s nook.
