Speaking as a first-time Airbnb'er I was really impressed with the location as well as Dara's attention to detail. First off, it's in Princeville which is just a bike ride away from town and a quick drive down the hill to beautiful Hanalei Bay. The rental is quite roomy: perfect for two couples if you don't mind fighting over who gets the balcony loft (btw, no problem beating the heat with the provided fans and nature's breezes).
Dara provided loads of amenities and things to make our beach trips more fun: got a ton of use out of those beach chairs. There's a local Foodland so you could absolutely play house here if you so desired. The only thing you have to worry about are sharing the road with wealthy tourists coming to and from St. Regis, but the rest is paradise. 🌺
