The house was pleasant enough for the family to have a place to lay our heads on our Road to Hana trek. We really just wanted a place in/near Hana that provided us a kitchen and a midway stopping place. We really enjoyed the Road to Hana and it was a highlight of our trip. What we didn't like about this stay, was the tenant downstairs seemed to be a chain smoker who light up every hour and the second hand smoke came straight up through our open windows. Without air conditioning, we really had no choice but to have the windows open. So with two asthmatics in my family, we had a hard time breathing, so we had to check out early. I highly recommend the hike to the Red Sand Beach and we would have done the Black Sand Beach, but a reservation was required and they close early (6pm). The sunrise view from the front balcony was pleasant, although just peek a boo views of the ocean.
