Noelani's vacation home is in a secluded upcountry area, and I appreciated the peace and quiet. There were a few dogs barking occasionally, but that seems to be an unavoidable part of the Hawaii country experience. The home was clean and comfortable. The separate master suite was cozy and nice, but at times inconvenient (for instance when I had to go back to the main house for something I had forgotten). The kitchen was well-equipped for making simple meals and I especially liked the heavy cooking pots. The dishwasher was great. I'm looking forward to returning with my family for another staycation.
