"We stayed at this property after Kona low storms caused widespread damage. Before our trip, there were significant safety concerns including flooding, road closures, power outages, and a boil water advisory, The governor was discouraging travel to the area.We reached out to Evelyn the host to see if it was safe to proceed. Her response indicated that our safety and the needs of the community were not a priority. Traveling into the area was unsettling. There were visible “Do Not Enter” and “No Tourists” signs, detours, and active cleanup efforts.The ocean was brown, with significant debris floating by. While the ocean conditions are outside of the homeowner’s control, the home’s premium price is clearly tied to its proximity to the ocean. Regarding the home, the sleeping arrangements were the strong point with comfortable beds, and plenty of linens and towels. The home shows signs of wear and inconsistent cleanliness. The kitchen drawers contained crumbs and many dishes were dirty. We found relaxing uncomfortable due to the futon style couch. The kitchen counter height is awkward making it uncomfortable to eat. The only way to eat together is to sit outside at the table under the surveillance of 3 cameras. The smoke detectors were missing, the front door lock was broken.If you choose to book this property, purchase travel insurance that allows cancellation for any reason. The significant number of exorbitant potential fines and fees should serve as a red flag to proceed."

"We were forced to exit the property due to the Emergency evacuation order. We left with 2 days left on our reservation. Is there a refund to me from having to evacuate the area."

"During our stay, it was after the big floods. The house was perfect, but the water was still cloudy and muddy. On the last day we saw how beautiful the water and snorkel area was. Wish we could have enjoyed it more! That's the way the weather goes. Laundry is down at the gate House, and you need quarters to run the machine. Kitchen was fully stocked with dishes and pans. Beds were comfy. Beautiful stay."

The kitchen was gorgeous and well supplied with everything we needed. (We could have used a couple more dish towels). The furniture was comfortable and well appointed. We highly recommend this rental home. "

"The yurt was a lot of fun to stay in for our family of 11. It was conveniently located with lots of parking. The linens and towels were greats were the beds The shower worked fine and you had to go outside to get to a fully functional bathroom but that wasn’t a problem at all. We had rain but no leaks. Overall. I would certainly stay again. We were worried with all of the warnings but communication was great and we found it a great spot from which to explore the North Shore and the rest of Oahu. "
