I've stayed at Mountain Breeze Cottage with two friends for two nights. The experience was overall positive. The apartment was clean and quite big and the beds were comfortable. There is a covered parking that is very handy in case of rain for loading/unloading. What I liked the most was the big and spacious living room, which includes the kitchen and the dining room.
Merlenna is not the owner, she is apparently the reservations manager. The host is Thomas, who lives at the ground floor with his wife, Angela, who we never met. Thomas is a nice old man who showed us the apartment and kindly gave us a package of coffee for the next morning breakfast.
Being secluded, the apartment is quiet (no cars noise) but there are a lot of natural noises coming from the surrounding rainforest (birds or frogs perhaps?) that can be pretty loud.
It rained pretty much all the time during our stay so we didn't have a chance to visit the garden, which looked well maintained anyway.
Probably because of the high humidity of the area, the aparment smelled like mold.
There is no fireplace or dishwasher (in contrast to what is written in the house description) and the wifi connection is poor.
What I didn't like about this reservation is that after sending the request to Merlenna, she canceled it and she sent a special offer (more expensive) that included taxes that were not previously listed. I've booked other times with Airbnb in Hawaii and it's the first time that I see something like this. I decided to book anyway with her because I didn't have much time left to look for other accommodations (it was the day before my flight), otherwise I would have booked elsewere.
