I actually loved this property. However, I wanted sit out in the courtyard next to the stone mini pond, but I could not because the flat stone area was covered in over an inch of mold slime. The property said we could pick fruit off the trees. I picked a papaya- it the thick mold/sludge under my feet caused me to slip and grossed me out. I had to wash my flip flops and feet.
That area just needs to be scraped and cleaned so that guests can sit and take advantage of the water mini pond, lush vegetation area.

Good value for budget minded travelers. Nice beach within walking distance.

Thank you for saying with us we appreciate you saying that it’s a good budget, but did you enjoy the grounds of the property the orchids, the fruit trees, the beautiful grass area throughout the property you feel like you’re in Hawaii when you’re staying with us? I just think it’s odd that people care not to mention any of the hard work that we put into our place and they keep it so blatantly vague. I wonder if they ever go outside of the room.

We ended up having the property pretty much to ourselves which was nice. It is no frills lodging and what the info on Expedia doesn’t make clear is that it is a shared kitchen. However as I said there weren’t many other lodgers while we we there so it didn’t make a difference. It has AC which sometimes you don’t find so that also was a plus! My one bit of advice is to bring good ear plugs if you stay here because there are “croakers” which are frogs that like to start talking and singing at nightfall and they are loud.

Hello, thank you for coming. I read your comment and you said no thrills. Do you come to Hawaii for the beautiful surroundings and the beautiful beaches because that’s all our property offers it’s a quaint little place that we spend a lot of energy and time to keep it clean and to give you Little snacks, free coffee, a shared kitchen fruit tree throughout the property, but not to mention none of that and I find that odd and then your comment with no thrill place … If you’re looking for a resort, I’m sure there’s one that would fit your budget.. This is not a multi million dollar corporation. It’s a quaint little place in Hawaii for people that enjoy the outdoors and the beautiful trees and orcas that we have throughout the property..

So it was a great stay. If you are looking for a big fancy resort. This isn’t it. If you want a bathroom a shower and a fridge to keep stuff cold while you explore the island. This is perfect. We left early in the morning and got back late. There is ample on site parking. We don’t need all the extra frills so this worked perfect.

You’ll love this place!
Posted 5 Aug 2024 on HotelsA nice clean bungalow with good air conditioning and comfortable bed. I was most impressed with no bed bugs!! The kitchen is adequate with a gas burning stove top, rice maker, toaster and small coffee maker. The amenities are sufficient including iron and board if needed. There are plenty of dishes, pans and small pots. You may want to bring a larger cooking pot.
The table for eating is very small but there is a bar with stools if you have kids.
There’s a large refrigerator. The nice walk to a private beach is very cool!
I highly recommend this place!
