5 stars! Across the street from Kahena Beach -a black sandy beach with roaring (scary but beautiful) surf.
House is great- don’t book if you have any problems ambulating on stairs. It is multi level. Gorgeous wood throughout. We had no bugs- but mosquito netting provided. Make sure to stock up on food before arrival- they have everything you need in a well stocked kitchen- and gave us a welcome bottle of wine- Mahalo!!!
I loved the hot tub and the view of the ocean. Extremely private. Hosts Tim and Iliaha were very helpful and took care of a broken phone quickly so we could communicate. No cell service there. Could text though. The house phone is important.
We booked for a romantic anniversary and it was perfect!
Very interesting decor -Balinese decor and architecture. Felt like we were in Bali! Cool river stone shower felt like we were outside. Robes provided. Kitchen appliances all worked well- dishwasher is there- great stove and fridge.
Very remote, so at night we wanted to watch a movie. They Had a tv with DVD player but the dvd and remote did not work-there was another tv in the other bedroom, but no DVD player there. We watched Netflix there instead. She says she will get another tv soon, so it likely won’t affect your stay.
Only thing I would change is I would purchase a gas grill if I were them- as we had to go shopping for briquettes in order to grill our steaks. (A bit inconvenient.)
However- I would book again if coming back since the house was so cool and a great experience in a fabulous location.
