We just stayed for 5 nights in April at Mele Kai and as described by
the other reviewers , the house is incredible and is in an amazing location. It was more
than enough space for our family of 4. The views are like a screen saver and you can walk out and
be by the ocean in seconds from the rear of the house. We are very familiar with the area( we have owned
house in HPP since 2005 which is a rental at present) and enjoyed waking up with a hot tub ready to use.
The weather was great the whole time we were there( no rain but a few drops at night).
The one thing that became an issue for us was nothing to do with the house but involved the road on the
back of the house by ocean. On the first day we noticed a couple of pickup trucks parked around 5pm and people hanging out and drinking until around 8pm.At times it was loud and it was hard to have the back doors open to the house.
Next day at the same time they were back again, left a little later than before.So by the third day we decided to try and not go back to house around that time. On friday( our last night) we were back around 5 and the pick ups were back, maybe 6 of them and this time they had tables set up next to their cars. Well this time they stayed until around 2 am and it was loud, it was hard to go to bed with the noise and it was harder to close all the windows and doors and have no breeze in the house.
I did read an earlier review which mentioned some issues they had with noise but had not anticaipted it would be an issue during our stay. We did not contact the management of house about this problem and I am
not sure what could have been done if we had. I think one concern of ours was getting into a dispute with
the people making the noise and having issues after the fact with that situation.
We love Hawaii and HPP and will return in near future.
