AirbnB charges $2 per transaction night. Where is the greed in that? Mrs Thielen sounds like she is in the pocket of tourism stakeholders. 

My kids are grown up,  my house is empty,  and I wish to share the REAL Hawaiian culture with guest that look for these experiences. My guest are in awe when they are told of our historic stories.  

The number one sentiment I hear from travelers is none want the "tourist trap crap" that is being shoved down their throat. They want the back yard Bar-B-Q and kanikapila after a day of visiting iconic sites and hearing of the contentious struggles that Hawaii nationals fight to escape assimilation. 

Your idea of a Hawaiian vacation - the Mai Tai cocktail poolside at sunset IS NOT THE HAWAII MAGIC I SHARE. You (Mrs. Thielen) think I am going to go through the filtering process (red tape permitting that you suggest) to rezone my property? To share my Aloha. THINK AGAIN. 

As long as you lame ducks run in circles, I will do as a FREE HAWAIIAN will.
