This is a very unique and lovingly crafted home. If you are looking for a true Hawaiian getaway that is off the beaten path, this is the place for you. We spent most evenings enjoying the lanai and getting to know the sweet kitty on the property. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful.
With that being said, keep in mind that this is more of an indoor/outdoor experience and even with screens (there are many gaps) you will get a few visitors inside including geckos and various bugs. We put bananas on the counter to ripen and we had something munch on them in the middle of the night so try to keep all of your food in the fridge if possible. On the last two nights of our stay we heard the unmistakable chewing of rats on the roof. It didn't bother us too much because little critters are to be expected, but if I had read a review about dealing with rodents I may have picked a different place. Overall, we still had a great time.
