Loved the house. This is very much in the middle of the Hawaiian rain forest which to us and the kids was a win. Be mindful that this is someone's home and you are off the grid. Water must be managed and power is solar however we did not find that to be a problem even with 4 people in the house for a longer stay. The chickens and peacocks are lovely and very friendly, not aggressive at all and my kids enjoyed feeding them (but away from the front door as Mara advises).
