This house was a great stay in Paia!
Con (be aware): The internet is pretty flaky; it was essentially nonexistent throughout our stay. The router would hang, and in order to reset it someone actually has to come to the house (a helper who lives next door) and go into the bedroom to get a key to unlock a closet to reset it. The amount of hassle this entails while keeping covid distancing in play means we gave up pretty quickly on having internet. But - we didn't come to Hawaii to sit around on the internet anyway.
Pros: Pretty much everything else. This was a clean and quiet, 3 bedroom house with good amenities, exactly as described in the listing. The owner was responsive and kind, willing to help out with whatever request we had. The loaner boogie boards and beach toys in the garage added a lot of fun to our beach experience. And the location - fantastic! Quiet and breezy at night, cool, great view of the stars, nice semi-distant ocean view but easy proximity to Baldwin beach and the downtown. The little cafe, a 2 minute walk next door, had delicious food and drinks.
I'd definitely rent this place, or any other place from Monica, again.
