It's just a short drive to Iao Valley State Park, Waihee Coastal Dunes, Iao Theater, Wailuku Town and many other spots to explore. This is a quiet local neighborhood so we have strict quiet hours between 8pm and 8am. ** Due to the beach and open land proximity, and near constant onshore trade winds that cool our rooms, there can be some dust that blows in from the beach and metals rust very quickly.*** We also have 1 dog, a cat and 2 chickens on site that are not allowed in the guest rooms. Please advise us if you have any environmental, animal or food allergies so we can adjust accordingly** Access to public transportation is a block from the house, however you'll probably want to rent a car to truly enjoy the island on your own timetable.
