My mother and I really enjoyed our stay with David and Lynda. They really went the extra mile to accommodate us and were always available for questions or requests. At the same time, they also gave us privacy and we hardly noticed they were living in the unit above us.
The location is centrally located so you can venture both South and North with ~1 hour drives. The AirBnB is about 5 minutes off the main highway, which we loved because it felt remote and secluded, and not touristy….while still being close to so many things (e.g., Fern Grotto, Grove Farm, The Plantation House by Gaylords, shopping in Kapa'a, and Lydgate Chocolate tour).
The rooms require some repair…nothing major, though. The appliances are old and the front door was "sticky". Cable was not working when we were there, but we could hook up a Roku or use the streaming on the TV itself.
Roosters and crickets are loud so bring some earplugs if you are sensitive…but, personally, I liked feeling close to nature. Ceiling fans keep the rooms cool enough without AC.
The king bed was very spacious…mattress is on the softer side, if you prefer that. Laundry in unit is a wonderful convenience because it's so humid, you will want to wash your clothes more often.
If you can…rent one of their vehicles. It is a good deal, and makes for convenient pick-up and drop-off.
We would definitely stay here again, and highly recommend!
