Rina really did her best to make everyone feel comfortable at her place -starting from a letter with detailed explanation of how to find her (with photos! well done!) to minor pleasantries like beach bags or private fridge on our lanai. There is a big, well-eqipped kitchen which is always available, laundry facilities and a cosy common living-room.
But I hate to say, this place had too many insects for me (I have arachnophobia). To begin with, ants are all around the place! But to make things still worse, due to continuous rain that we'd had for almost 6 nights and a sugar cane field nearby we found five-six spiders (not poisonous!) in the house. That did make my stay and another girl's next door a nightmare.
I am sure this place has a lot of potential being situated in such atmospheric place as Paia, but I'm sure there should be a way to protect your house from insects! All the best and good luck!
