Kendall’s place was just as she described and worked great for 2 couples. Like others have said, the house is well-loved and could use some updates/TLC but those are mostly minor inconveniences. It’s very clean and tidy for its age, and is a block from the ocean. We had activities planned in Lihue so it felt a little out of the way (especially during morning rush hour), but we really enjoyed Waimea which is 5 min away.
The AC unit in one of the bedrooms was loud, but a godsend. We were a little disappointed that the outdoor shower doesn’t have access from the bedroom with the attached half-bath, so we couldn’t treat it as two full baths. The privacy walls also felt a little short, so we didn’t use it. There were some early morning dog and cat noises but hey, what real neighborhood doesn’t have a little of that ;).
Kendall was responsive, friendly, and accommodating. Overall the house was comfortable and fit our needs. And it is so much more affordable than Poipu! Would stay again.
