The place itself is very clean and KJ is very thoughtful on amenities. Bed is comfortable. You would find everything you would need during your stay. It’s a very nice cabin overall!
Location wise, it’s not too far from Kailua and the drive uphill/downhill was amazing (with the great beautiful skyline). But it’s in the mountain, so it does take some cautious after turning into the residential area road. But we love how the location is not too far from the city and a bit remote.
The temperature - in early morning and at night, it’s very comfortable and AC is totally not necessary. But starting around 9 am, you will feel the heat. Try not to stay in the room midday, otherwise it’s like a toaster oven. Although KJ provided fans, which helps A LOT, but maybe some more insulation needed for the room. But we stayed out until almost sunset, so it really not super huge of an issue.
The mosquitos - we got serious mosquito issue during the stay, well, so you would need your mosquito repellent and anti-itch handy for sure. We kept doors closed once, so not sure where the little demon came from…
Sounds of nature - Cricket and frog sound does not bother me at all (which is actually very nice to have). It’s the rooster. it’s very thoughtful that KJ provided us with earplugs (definitely helps), but it’s hard to sleep through the night when the rooster(s) starts announcing the day before 4am and keep going throughout 8am ….. I consider myself a deep sleeper and still got woke up a few time with earplugs. My husband (who is a light sleeper) can barely fall asleep after the roosters start. Just be aware.
