Answer

Chickens. Loads of chickens. We sleep with some white noise sounds because the chickens and roosters sing day and night sometimes, but once you get used to it you'll find yourself missing their little squawks at home.

Question

Where should I stay?Where should I stay?

Answer

Makai club does offer various rooms to stay at, however we do recommend you explore AirBnb or VRBO options on the north side of the island! We love staying in Princeville itself, and Hanalei is a very short drive away. Other locations such as Kapa'a are on the east side of the island but are also accessible by a 30 min drive, which may be a cheaper option.
