The house is beautiful, spacious and generally very comfortable. It is clean and the kitchen is well stocked with utensils, plates, cookware, etc. And while there is no air conditioner - there are cool cross breezes throughout the house. We stayed for a week and enjoyed our stay and our escape from our reality. Bob was engaging and generous with his time. It was also a nice bonus to have a small gym on the property - given that this is a house rental.
There are however, a few things I wish were a little different. The water pressure and temperature of one of the showers left a lot to be desired. I had a couple cold showers. I was also a little disappointed that after traveling 8 hours to get to Kauai and the house, I had to rummage through the whole house to look for soap to wash my hands. In the end I used some left over body wash that was left behind - before I unpacked my own. And given that we arrived rather late in the evening - it would have been nice, to have a starter role of paper towels etc, like other Airbnbs and VRBOs that we have stayed in - so we don't have to rush out first thing to buy supplies.
It rained a lot while we were visiting, so the towels and pillows soon smelled a bit musty. But I am not sure if anything can be done about that besides constantly washing the towels. And being a hard core city girl I also had to get used to the little lizards and variety of insects that would visit the house, despite our best efforts to keep all the doors closed. Nevertheless, we had a wonderful time and had a very memorable stay and became very addicted to the coffee at the Kalaheo Cafe just a short drive away.
