Bailey House Museum, Historical museum in Wailuku, United States

Hale Hōʻikeʻike at the Bailey House is a two-storey stone house built in 1833 at the mouth of the ʻĪao Valley in Wailuku, on land that was part of the royal residence of Kahekili II. Its rooms hold Hawaiian tools, weapons and utensils, more than one hundred landscape oils by Edward Bailey, a pre-1819 wooden statue of the demi-god Kamapuaʻa, and a Monarchy Room and Koa Room upstairs.

The building was constructed in 1833 and was one of the first Western-style structures in Wailuku, initially serving as a mission station. It later became the Wailuku Female Seminary before being converted to a museum.

The museum keeps a wooden statue of Kamapuaʻa, a Hawaiian demi-god, hidden in an upcountry cave for over a century; it is the only wooden statue on Maui to survive King Kamehameha II's 1819 purge of the indigenous religion. Edward Bailey, a schoolteacher who painted on Sundays, left more than one hundred landscape oils of 19th-century Maui. The Monarchy Room and the Koa Room hold furnishings made entirely from koa.

The museum and its grounds are open Monday through Saturday, 10 AM to 4 PM. The building sits at the mouth of the ʻĪao Valley in Wailuku, within the old royal residence of Kahekili II. A gift shop with locally made artisan items is on the south side of the Old Bailey House. Historical papers are kept for researchers.

In a shelter on the grounds hangs Duke Kahanamoku's 1919 redwood surfboard. Beside it is the Honaunau, a 33-foot (10 m) outrigger fishing canoe carved from a single koa log and one of the last koa fishing canoes made in Hawaiʻi.
