This house was awesome! Light and bright; there are 5 sliding glass doors which we left open for fresh air and daylight. The property itself had a very private feel with established landscaping and privacy fences. There was even a private outdoor shower area with hot running water. It was very tastefully decorated. The beds were comfortable (better than home!). There were a few minor hiccups during our stay (for example we needed to find the breaker box because the AC unit tripped a breaker) but the host was very responsive and resolved the issues quickly. In my opinion, that is exactly what you want from a host. We would happily stay here again!
A few additional tips: One, if you prefer to hear less of the roosters during the wee hours of the morning, turn off the outdoor lights before bed and resist turning any lights on during the night. It made a huge difference after a resident gave us that tip. Two, grab some flippers and boogie boards on your way out of Lihue. We realized by the end of the trip that those two items would have been an awesome addition to our beach trips. The house did have a cooler, which was great for day trips, as well as quality snorkel masks.
