Hello, I have accepted a job in Naalehu and will be relocating soon. Any tips on finding a short term rental (3 months or so) that will accept 2 small dogs? I'll be renting until our home on the mainland sells then will be purchasing a home in the area. So far I've combed craigslist, Airbnb, etc...…

Mahalo,

stephanie

Good luck, Alohabeagle. I live in Discovery Harbour, so I'll let you know if I hear of anything. Maybe you could contact the DH office and ask if they know of any rentals. Sometimes you have to be here and just talk to people.

Do you know when you'll be coming here?

We were lucky in that we got our PO Box without waiting. That was in 2010, however.

Inquire politely and frequently at the post office once you get there.
That shouldn't speed it up but often does.
