We are a medical marijuana friendly property. You must enjoy your medicine outside. Hawaii is not retail so you must have a valid “Hawaii 329A” medical card. You must obtain your legal license prior to your arrival. Please Read: Animals and Insects We have an outdoor cat, Mittens. No animals are ever allowed inside the guest house and it is allergen free. But Mittens will come over and say hi outside during your visit. Also, we have three miniature horses in a fenced pasture several hundred feet down the hill from the guest house. If exposure to these animals is not to your liking, please do not book this guest house. Also, Hawaii is a tropical climate, and this guest house is at ground level in a natural setting surrounded by fields and woods. Animals and insects abound in this ecosystem year-round. At this guest house you will encounter animals and insects. There will be singing birds, mongoose, gecko lizards, and insects around the exterior of the house. You may even find a gecko lizard or insects inside the house during your stay. We as hosts do all we can to minimize geckos and insects in the interior, including maintaining all screens and weather stripping on the doors and using a monthly pest control service. Nevertheless, it is possible that a gecko lizard will dart in an open door. While geckos are harmless, they may be difficult or impossible to catch once in the house. It is also likely that you will find some insects inside the house during your stay. The most common type to get in are millipedes, which are black or red in color and 1" long. They can get through the smallest cracks around the bottom of the sliding screen doors. They do not bite and will not hurt you but are a nuisance on the floor. They are slow moving and easy to sweep up and remove. Please consider this ecological setting before booking. Because this natural ecosystem is part of the setting for this guest house, and we want to be clear about this before you book, no refunds or cancellations will be given for animals and insects. Please note: Hawaii State and County transient accommodation taxes and general excise sales taxes are added by VRBO when you book. Taxes are subject to change without notice. Please note: long-term stay cleaning service. If staying for 3 weeks or longer, an additional cleaning service is required during your stay at a rate of $32 per hour. The cleaning time may be one that is mutually acceptable, and you will need to reimburse the hosts directly for this service by cash or check.
