For our group of 8, this house was perfect in so many ways: spacious, beautiful view, bedrooms and bathrooms were immaculate, sun porches were perfect for watching the sunsets, far from the tourist traps in a peaceful neighbourhood, end of the road privacy, lush surroundings. Host was a great communicator and worked with us to resolve questions and issues that came up.
Other reviews have mentioned internet issues- that’s just par for the course in rural Hawaii. Other reviews mentioned the dishwasher and dryer not working- we pre-rinsed dishes and used the “More Dry” setting on the dryer and had no problems. Kitchen could use an update with new pots and pans, and a deep, deep clean. Beds need newer, better pillows. Linens were plentiful and clean. Upstairs sun porches need a chair or bench. There is a musty smell in one of the downstairs closets, so if you are allergic to mold be aware- again, this is an issue in other houses in rural Hawaii as well. It’s just a generally damp place. Overall really good value home, with potential to be great with a few additional touches.
