First off, the location is bar none. It’s perfect. It’s gorgeous and has incredible snorkeling. It’s quiet and the views are something else.
The furniture and items in the house for you to use (ie: kitchen items) are much like a yard sale. None of the furniture matches, what is there is heavily used. There’s a lot of rust and such on fixtures but that didn’t bug us since we’re on the ocean. There weren’t any paper towels when we checked in. When we left, we gave an additional roll for the next person.
There was an issue with one of the AC units in the upstairs bedroom and it was HOT in Hawai’i. When we notified the owner, she acknowledged that the last people to stay there had reported it but she didn’t realize it wasn’t working at all. Instead of investigating it and fixing it between renters, she apparently left it. She did get someone out there to look at it, he was in the house and left without comment to us if it was fixed or not. It was never cooling the room for the duration of our visit. Nor did she get back to us and let us know it wasn’t fixed.
If you’re looking for a great place that is local to a lot of the North Shore and don’t care about the fancy bells and whistles for the price, then this is a perfect spot for you.
