Debi was a very friendly and accommodating host to the five of us that stayed at this retreat for a week. It's in a pretty secluded area, so be aware that most restaurants and shopping are a good 10-15 minutes away; this was a positive for us, though, as we all wanted to stay away from the hustle and bustle of a city. We instead got to enjoy some peace and quiet on the North Shore, with a nice selection of beaches that weren't too far away. There were a handful of insects inside (and geckos to make quick work of them), but that's to be expected if you're seeking out something in the thick of the Hawaiian wildlife, scenery, and greenery. The chickens out back were very friendly too. :)
A/C would have been nice, but I totally spaced checking for it (I had no idea they were a rarity in Hawaii!) so that's no one's fault but my own. We would definitely stay here again if we make the trip back down to Hawaii. Haleiwa is beautiful!
