For many residents, Haiku is perfect inspiration of lush tropical island living. There is barely a plant that won’t flourish in this environment. Once again, Haiku is a mixture of modest plantation homes to expansive estate properties.
As Maui has many micro-climates, so does Haiku. Rainfall will vary in this district and range from 60 to 100 inches annually.
