Pros 

Unique - We can tell everyone we stayed at a castle with a drawbridge, moat and a dungeon.

The workmanship was amazing.

Our room has a comfy bed built by the host with a memory foam mattress (best sleep we ever got).

Fully equipped kitchen so we didn't go broke eating out every day.

An AMAZING private outdoor shower.

Cons 

Can't think of one thing... except maybe that we didn't have enough time!

My Review 

This vacation was relaxing and peaceful with a spectacular view of the ocean and we saw whales passing by on numerous occasions.

Our hosts were so accommodating and helpful, they lent us snorkel equipment and binoculars and toured us to the volcano where we got amazing video photos! They got us reservations to swim with the dolphins and took us to secret places most tourists won't ever know about.

A masseuse came to our lanai and she was AMAZING.

We definitely intend on making this a yearly tradition and highly recommend it to anyone wanting something unique, special and different!
