Can’t recommend unless you are clear about needs and expectations & have thoroughly read description & all reviews. It might be fine for you but we left 3 days into our 6 day stay.

We considered leaving on the first morning primarily due to poor sleep from the crowing of feral roosters nearby. They started between 3:00 – 4:00 a.m. Sleeping inside (versus the screened lanai) with a pillow over our heads blocked the noise. Earplugs would probably also work. The roosters continue until dusk. Otherwise the unit is pretty quiet; you don’t hear the highway, very little traffic on the road immediately in front & there is only occasional bumping heard through the walls from the owners next door.

The unit is well screened so that keeps out most bugs. Like most places in Hawaii outside of the resort areas, you will get ants in the kitchen unless you are exceptionally careful. Don’t be concerned about the numerous geckoes; they eat other bugs & won’t bother you.

Laundry is available onsite but not actually included.

The shower has good water pressure & there is lots of hot water.
The wifi was fine though sometimes cut out when we were on the lanai.

Very short drive to excellent snorkeling at 2-step near the Place of Refuge.

The room layout does not facilitate air circulation or cross breezes. There are no fans whatsoever. Due to the layout the A/C cools only the kitchen (where it is located). Probably the fact that the windows between the living room & lanai don’t close all the way contributed to the A/C’s ineffectiveness. Overall the unit feels sticky & stifling.

There is a full kitchen & a BBQ grill outside but there are issues with both. The grill didn’t light & there was no fire wand. We lit a piece of paper on fire from the gas stove & took it outside to light the grill. The kitchen has plates & cups galore but very few cooking pots, pans or implements such as spatulas or knives. The pots/pans we did find don’t necessarily have matching lids & don’t count on finding the size you need for what you want to cook.

The unit is a hodge podge of levels, construction quality & repairs/improvements. This is pretty common in Hawaii. The furnishings are likewise a random collection & some are in poor repair. Window coverings also – though not particularly needful – were hanging on poorly strung wire. Lack of attention to details didn’t contribute to our confidence that this unit is well cared for which in turn led us to noticing more flaws & feeling less & less comfortable here.
