Poni is very responsive. The Gingerbread has a fun unique architecture. The futon was set up for our arrival and was very comfortable. There a many stairs and with the open design may not be the best option for small children or seniors. The Gingerbread is very convenient to Paia and beach. A car is recommended since Hana Highway is very busy (don’t recommend walking). The house sits at the back of the property so it’s shielded from much of the traffic noise. There are plenty of sea turtles and surfers at the nearby beach. A sweet little convenience store, with yummy to go food and coffee, is just a 1/4 mile away. Paia is a bustling small tourist town with good restaurants and shops to explore.
