My partner and I were just trying to get to hawaii as affordable as possible, so when we came across this listing we jumped on it. I was a bit skeptical of renting a “room” in someone’s house but this is much more a private studio that connected to a main laundry room. It feels like a compound of a few rentals where the owner also had their permanent residence. We had a cute little patio that was nice to have coffee on in the mornings. AC unit kept the room cool for sleeping and naps, and the outdoor looking shower was really great, it’s very much indoors but had a sort of surfer beach house feel to it. Bed was super comfy and having laundry was priceless. It’s about a 30 minute walk to Magic Sands Beach, 7 min walk to the free shuttle that goes into town, and 15 minute walk to Da Poke Shak. I recommend a car or scooter if you want to get around more efficiently. Overall, loved it, especially for the price. Thank you!
