Beautiful installations from original plantation equiptment
One of the many reasons Maui is considered a leading destination for photographers is due to the diversity it offers. No more than thirty-five minutes from Wailea rests The Mill House in Waikapu Valley—an award-winning restaurant tucked onto the grounds of the Maui Tropical Plantation. A restaurant? you might say—and to which we’d reply, this is no ordinary venue. Situated next to a duck pond and peering out upon verdant crops, part of The Mill House’s aim is to preserve Maui’s past—particularly in terms of the role that plantations played. To that end, its horseshoe bar is bookended by locomotives from the 19th century, while pieces of Maui’s last sugarcane mills—from fly wheels to photographs—welcome diners to its grounds. But it’s The Mill House’s view of the vertiginous West Maui Mountains that renders it oh-so-photogenic. https://www.millhousemaui.com
