Fred, the cockroach came out on night one to visit. Then left us alone. Ha ha. (He was fast!!! And not a pest. He knew his place and left us alone.) I actually liked him quite a bit.
Listen, it’s the jungle. You have to be prepared for that.
But the rooftop view. You can’t be fully prepared & until you go up for a sunrise view... you won’t get it. (Get up. Make coffee, fill half a papaya with yogurt and granola and go to the third floor. Watch the sun come up. We used to go to Pohoiki when we lived here, for the sunrise. This was a close second. Sooo not to be missed!)
There’s a washer, limited but serviceable kitchen supplies, enough toilet paper to survive a pandemic quarantine, and quiet privacy.
It’s fully solar powered, so there’s only a few light bulbs in the house. But it’s doubtful you’ll mind. We did not.
The coquis sing you to sleep in the jungle bungalow. Soothing for this island girl.
The bathroom is split. Ha ha. The shower is downstairs and the toilet is upstairs.
Now, being a grandma, I sooo appreciate the toilet close to the bed. We didn’t mind going up to use the bathroom.
And logistically, it’s understandable why the shower is where it is. Just be aware. And don’t complain. It’s Hawaii.
Meh..! It’s all good.
Robert was helpful and hospitable.
Finally, “Kermie”, a cute little frog hung out in the shower and on the bath mat. He made sure to say goodbye on our last morning there.
Overall... a very nice stay.
We will recommend and definitely be back.
