Nice place to stay away from tourist traffic. It was a 15-45 minute drive from most of the places we visited including restaurants, beaches, and shopping. There are so many amazing snorkeling and swim spots on this side of the island! The owner was communicative and check in was super easy. Debbie even left us some fun snacks on the counter before our arrival.
Three of the beds in the house were comfortable and in their own separate rooms, but futon was not an appealing place to sleep as it is located directly in front of the front door. The house needed a few minor repairs to various things which I have mentioned to the owner, such as the lock on the bathroom door. Not mentioned in the listing is the fact that someone lives on the second floor of the house, which was not necessarily a big deal since they have a separate entrance and were very quiet. Our kids had a great playing in the pool, and there were rafts, beach toys, and plenty of towels in the closets. The geckos that hang out around the porch are adorable and my son loved feeding them bits of coconut. The house is at a slightly higher elevation and we had nice cool breezes in the morning and evening. There are coqui frogs near the house, which we heard in many other places around the island. I kind of enjoyed the sound of them, despite the fact that they are an invasive species, but if you are a light sleeper please look them up before traveling to Hawaii-or bring some earplugs!
Overall, we had a great stay and I would definitely recommend this house if you are looking for a place away from the high traffic condo areas!
