We wanted a quiet and comfortable place to lay our heads in Hana for less than what the resort cost. That’s exactly what we got.
I’d place this property in a category with only one other VRBO at which we’ve stayed in that it was at least as nice, possibly nicer, than it appears on the website. I’ve learned to expect more wear and tear than you see by scrolling through the pics, etc. That is not the case with this cottage. Everything was clean and in good repair. The outdoor shower and water hose make it convenient to rinse off on your way back from a hike or the beach. Those beaches are close by too, as are the food trucks, grocery stores and restaurants.
Getting your vehicle in and out requires a bit of care and patience but it’s doable. There are a few fairly requirements the owners ask of you (I.e. remove your shoes, turn off the AC upon leaving, etc.) while staying and upon checkout. None of these bi-laws were outlandish or unreasonable for a rental home though.
Staying over in Hana made our trip very enjoyable—so nice to get out to several of the sites ahead of the masses or after they’d passed on. We tend not to stay at the same place twice, but I could see us returning here again. I’ll definitely look for it if we plan to stay over in Hana any time soon.
