Wonderful place to stay if you are visiting the North Shore! Location is excellent, very quiet, with 3 minute short drive to Paia town or Mama's Fish House, plus a cute beach in walking distance with turtles and surfers to watch - although note - it's a bit windy and rough swimming.
Kitchen was actually ok for cooking, there is a hot plate if you want to make anything, but make sure to get a bag of ice at a nearby gas station as there is no freezer. If you are adventuring out all day this is the perfect place to retire at the end of a long day, quiet, clean, your private little beach shack feeling. There is not really a view of the ocean as that is reserved for the big house, but we didn't really miss the view at night it as we were out all day on the island adventuring. The stargazing opportunity is incredible.
If you are staying longer than a couple nights, note there are only 3 bath towels and the 2 beach towels are kind of and small mat like. There is a Target about 20 minutes away, the town of Paia is so fun to walk and explore (you must go to the pizza place, we went 3 times during our stay!) plus you are near the road to Hana, the airport, everything is a quick drive away. We enjoyed our stay so much! I recommend Dan's place if you are going out exploring each day and looking forward to simple clean comfortable no frills accommodations at night - this place is for you!
