When seeking out a place to stay you are always hoping that what they say it is, is exactly what it is. There are times it is not all that they make it out to be. This place was everything they said it would be and a bit more. The best centrally located place on the island when wanting to explore the whole island. Everything was easy access and at our fingertips when wanting to shop, eat or go do activities. The only surprise we had (no idea that they are all over the island) was the chickens. At times they wanted to be up earlier than we wanted to be. We got through it because everything else outweighed the chickens. Kauai is still our favorite island. Our host was warm and welcoming, informative and was quick to respond. I would come back again. Great memories were built here.
