If you want fancy poolside service, nightlife, and a/c rooms this is not the place for you. However, if you want ultra laid back jungle style where you can hear geckos all night and fall asleep with the breeze blowing through open windows this is definitely your place. It so close to all the cool secret things that you hear about on that side of the island. AND you can cook your own food which is a nice relief from all the expensive dining on the west side of the island. The kitchen has everything you would need. I consider myself a highly skilled cook and I was not wanting for anything there. (side note: Albert has all the spices you could possibly need but make sure you buy all your ingredients at the Walmart or Costco near the airport. There are only two general stores and they are crazy expensive.) Albert is ultra cool and can tell you all the interesting things going on. He is certainly one of the most interesting people I've met in all my travels. Ask him if he has any good breadfruit. I didn't get a chance to try it but he said it was delicious. Stay here if you plan on staying in Hana. You won't regret it!
