Here is our review of the listing.
TLDR:
Effectively bad communication from host, kinda dirty some places, and lack some of the things you would expect of a listing of this price tag. But you can make it work.
Communication:
I thought the communication was superficial. The listing is not exactly managed by "Jed & Lisa" but by a group of people who I assume manage a group of properties. Because of that, when we wanted to get in contact with the owners for some issues, it was hard to get a hold of anyone (i.e. no real replies for early check in / no response to when the maintenance would come for some issues, and no replies for asking for where the shampoo or other basic toiletries are). However, they do send the welcome message and check-in message, but at the end of the day, what support did I really get here?
Cleanliness:
I think the space was generally clean. Few exceptions included dining table that smelled like meat and terrace that wasn't cleaned properly. But I don't know, I am not too sensitive to this so I could live with it.
Basic Amenities:
We had some issues with the amenities or supplies that I thought the listing would have. As mentioned before, no shampoo and body wash so we had to go out to get those. The door screen for the terrace was completely dislocated, so we couldn't really keep the bugs out if we wanted to enjoy the wind. Laundry was obnoxiously loud and in need or maintenance. It's a bit hard to say we were provided with everything we expected in accordance with the amount we paid for this listing.
Other thoughts:
The listing is okay, and at the end of the day, we made the place work. But I am pretty disappointed by the level of service/provision the listing gives in return. Also, we had a roach the size of half a granola bar, which I don't care as much cuz I love bugs, but if you are not into that... idk maybe, it's something you can't avoid in Hawaii? You can decide this one for yourself. But anyhow, hope this review helps the management better configure their communication and amenities for the next stay.
