The apartment was as just as described.. The host Nina was helpful and even had the apartment ready earlier than expected which was much appreciated since we had time to kill and perishable groceries.. plenty of amenities for cooking and beach activities.. a few minutes from "downtown" Paia and good beaches for surfing, snorkeling or just relaxing. Some good restaurants in town as well as the best market on the island (Mana Foods). Great location if you're planning on visiting the road to Hana and are looking for a less touristy experience. Definitely would stay again!
