Very disappointing
We spent $1200 a night. Kolea is a beautiful location and we have rented units there before. This unit was dirty and in bad state when we arrived. We immediately notified owner regarding broken shades, filthy carpet, greasy barbecue etc. He fixed shade and washed carpets.
That was the beginning, dishwasher never worked, AC conked out. No bath mats, beach towels were unraveling. Then came the coconut ants. We have rented enough in the tropics to know to put all food in fridge. The ants were in the power outlets and inside our sealed, unopened food in the pantry.
So for our Christmas holiday, we did not cook or celebrate at our $1200 house a night because of issues.
Owner has offered compensation, but so far no resolution. Hopefully the house will be fixed and ready for the next tenant,
