Disliked: Cleanliness
TL;DR: If you can overlook large cockroaches, serious maintenance issues, many things that do not work, & uneven cleanliness, this spacious house has amazing views and a well-appointed kitchen.THE GOOD: Amazing views, spacious house, well-appointed kitchen.THE BAD: We encountered 12 large cockroaches in the house during our stay, including one dead between the bed sheets. (We know there are bugs in Hawaii, but this was on another level.) The primary shower is unusable because the bottom is peeling off & plugging the drain. The lanai is so rotted in one place that you might put a foot through it. A bathroom has a water leak in the ceiling that drips brown liquid when it rains. One sliding glass door cannot be locked, one is jammed shut. A power plug is held in the wall with athletic tape; the same tape covers a hole through the drywall. The floor tiles aren’t glued down so they move as you walk. Screen doors are off the rails, the refrigerator leaks. THE UGLY: The windows are dirty and pitted. The bottom of our feet got dirty quickly because the tile floor had not been mopped. THE RESPONSIBLE: This house is rented by Princeville Vacation Rentals/Kauai Vacation Group/Kauai Real Estate Group. Rather than taking full responsibility for these issues, they said, “the home owner is responsible for property maintenance."FULL DISCLOSURE: After much back & forth, we were given a small discount for the “inconvenience” and a team did a minor cleaning of windows a floors.
