Not that I really care about what random Air bnb criteria tells me how I'm doing, but I found this to be fascinating all the same. 5 stars. 100% response, 0% cancellation - but NOPE sorry you aren't good enough to be a 'super' host. Whatever! HEY ALL - BOOK DIRECT AND DON'T PAY AIR BNB OR VRBO ANYTHING!

Wow what a hidden gem. Attention Bay Area friends and Sand Dollar beach goers. The Grille is right off the freeway but a world away at the Delavega Golf course. Upstairs views over golf course and out to the ocean. Menu is so diverse and still you recognize everything. French toast and pancakes served with real maple syrup. Most items locally sourced and fresh from the farms and ocean. Breakfast and lunch. Don’t miss it

Aloha! Our cookies are headed to Washington, DC! We are very honored to have been selected to participate in the 9th Annual “Hawaii on the Hill” from June 8th thru the 11th. It’s a great opportunity for small businesses in Hawaii like ours to showcase their products on a national stage with federal officials and members of congress.

Day 32. Job (almost) finished! Only upper cabinet lights not done. 🤷‍♂️. Just nearly a miracle on Kauai time to get done what we did. Big Mahalo to Jeff who coordinated it and especially Jason the cabinet wizard! Heading home after a night of respite at Kalapakī Marriott. Beautiful day hard to leave. But ready to go!
