Thanks for the description of the single wall construction. I had pictures of the Kalani Cabins and was trying to figure what was going on, since it didn’t look like the pictures in the framing book. I guess this is a happy cross between Timber Framing and stick building.
It looks like the walls between the rooms are simply painted plywood placed between the 4x4s. In other places T&G panels were used and again painted over. I don't see why there would be any cleaning issues here. (They charge 200+/night for these rooms). There is no site of electrical or plumbing, probably hidden as LeilaniGuy described.
The cabins have a simple yet charming/rustic look. Definitely what David Thoreau would have build in the Hawaiian rainforest!!!
Ok, so I am romanticizing it a little bit ;-)
