Makana's place is the perfect base to explore the north side of Kauai! It's roomy, well-kept, clean, and has AC--crucial in such a humid, warm place. We found that the fans and AC kept us comfortable at night and we loved the lofted bed. Not recommended for travelers with mobility issues as you have to climb a ladder to reach the bed, but great for us.
Makana responded promptly to my emails and even dropped off a blender for us to use. We make fresh smoothies for breakfast all week! The only issue I had was that mosquitoes sometimes found their way inside despite windows and doors being closed and I ended up with some bites. Other than that it was a great place to stay!
