We stayed for a week and Kendall was great. We had a few needs when we arrived and she took care of everything within the first 24 hours. The home is situated on the dry side of the island in a small town of locals. This comes with pluses and negatives. There aren't just time-challenged roosters (which are all over the island), but a few small local dogs on patrol, a VERY messy neighbor two doors down and huge closed sugar plantation behind it. There is also the view of the beach from the couch, sun when the majority of the island is getting rained on and incredibly friendly locals (as I hitched a ride from nearby Waimea). In addition, you are steps from a bus stop where you can go anywhere along the coast for $2. If I just wanted to get away without doing touristy things, I wouldn't even need to rent a car...just take the bus from Lihue to Waimea for groceries and then hop back on the bus to the Fielding House in Kekaha. This is NOT the place for people who want a resort in Poipu. This is for people who don't mind living among the locals while enjoying a 3 bedroom home all to themselves. From horseback rides on the beach to raft and snorkel adventures off the Napali Coast to a drive up the Waimea Canyon to sunset at Polihale Beach (one of the best in the world - but only accessed by a five mile rough dirt road - we had a Jeep). It was an amazing experience! We would love to return.
