Tropical Guest Cottage.

A retreat waits in this spacious 500 square foot guest cottage.

A plantation style design with open beams, cool trade wind breezes, and soothing decor will take you back to the lazy, relaxed days of old Hawaii.

The guest cottage is detached from the main residence and has its own private entry way and courtyard. The courtyard is surrounded by tropical plants; a sitting area and hot tub makes for your own private island hideaway.

The clean and simple decor invites you. Furnished with a king size bed, a sectional sofa, ceiling fans, breakfast nook, wetbar, coffee maker, microwave, toaster, mini refrigerator, television w/ cable, dvd player,a clock radio, ironing board w/ iron and hair dryer. Linens and basic dishes are also provided.

A large walk in closet and lots of storage space makes it easy to unpack and enjoy. And with your own washer and dryer in the unit, there is no need to over pack.

The single story design is perfect for those who may have challenges with stairs. The entry way and cottage are on a single level and there are no stairs or changes in elevation.

Located just off Kalanianaole Hwy., the cottage is in a great centralized location. Ample street parking in front of the home and easy freeway access. This is a great location for travelers that want to take advantage of all the activities that South Oahu has to offer.

Hawaii Kai and Waikiki are just minutes away.

If you are looking for a laid back vacation away from the hustle of Waikiki, this is an ideal alternative.

  • We stayed in the cottage for nine nights. No hesitation, it exceeded all our expectations. All prior comments are accurate. Rather than a high rise select this cottage. You can select one of several beaches and enjoy the water,including Waikiki. Also, bus service is nearby with easy access to Waikiki if you are so inclined. Unlike major hotels, if you rent a vehicle, there is no cost for parking. When our day was done we would refer to the cottage as it was time to go "home." The hosts display the real "Aloha" spirit. We enjoyed the privacy, the ameneties and the freedom to explore the island at our leisure.

    5/23/2009 Extra Positive Rating Danielle Argiro & Richard Jean-Louis Albuquerque, New Mexico Richard and I stayed in Peter & Libby's Tropical Vacation Cottage for a week in May 2009. We had a wonderful time! Peter and Libby are friendly, helpful hosts who make you feel right at home immediately. We loved the airy, high ceiling with open beams, the peaceful interior in white and off-white, the breeze created by the ceiling fans, the sound of birds and the fragrance of blooming gardenias. The king-sized bed is super comfortable -- for once, I enjoyed a vacation without missing my own bed! The hot tub and outdoor shower is a real treat and so romantic. The cottage is conveniently located in a tropical suburb close to the urban activities and night life of Honolulu and Waikiki but you are definitely away from the city hustle and bustle. Close to good locations for water sports, beautiful beaches and hiking. Also close to shopping strips where you can find a variety of good restaurants and other stores (Tip: rent a car, you'll want it). The residence feels very private but Libby and Peter are only a phone call away whenever you need anything. I very much appreciated the free phone calls and WiFi (Tip: connectivity gets interrupted intermittently, save your work when filling out forms online!) Also, it was great to have a full-size washer and dryer. My husband and I highly recommend this lovely, reasonably priced vacation cottage to other couples and singles looking for a romantic, private, well-equipped home away from home! Whenever we return to Oahu, this is where we want to stay. Best wishes, ~danielle -----------------------

  • We were both very pleased with this bright and open cottage in a residential neighbourhood in the eastern part of Honolulu. Libby and Peter were very hospitable and welcoming helping us to feel at home but on our own. The space is well maintained and equiped and we especially appreciated the free long distance calls to the continent, the water toys, and the picnic cooler which we often took to the beach! We also made much use of the hot tub on our own private garden patio!

  • We stayed in this comfortable, cozy cottage for a week recently, and found it a very good home base from which to explore Oahu. Hosts Libby and Peter were so friendly and welcoming, and were pleased to answer all our questions while still providing us with a very private place of our own. The cottage is beautifully decorated, light and airy, with a very comfortable king bed and everything one could possibly need. The hot tub was great every day after a "tough" day being a tourist! If you are looking for your own little space to get away from busy Honolulu/Waikiki, I highly recommned this cottage .. we would not stay anywhere else when or if we return to Oahu. Mahalo Libby and Peter !!

  • My husband and I stayed 6 nights at the cottage for our honeymoon, and it was wonderful! We had just stayed at an expensive Hilton resort on the Big Island the week before, and we both agreed that this cottage was far better (and -much- cheaper, too!). It had a homey feel, with your own private entryway and private cottage, and the most comfortable bed. The owners Libby and Peter were some of the nicest people we've met, and they went out of their way to make our stay more comfortable. We appreciate all they did for us! We would return in a heartbeat, and we strongly recommend this cottage to anyone that's staying anywhere near Honolulu. You won't regret it! Thanks again for everything, Libby and Peter. We had a wonderful honeymoon!

  • Libby and Peter's cottage is beautifully designed and thoughtfully outfitted. The location was ideal for us - away from the fray of Waikiki and yet close enough to be there in under 15 minutes if we wanted. Libby and Peter were wonderful hosts. They were very available to us if we needed them and always respectful of our privacy.

  • A pleasant surprise. Really nice decor. Everything felt so new. The jacuzzi was nice and clean. The owner bent over backwards to make sure we were taken care of. She thought of everything from laundry baskets and Band-Aids to ice chests and boogie boards! We were quite happy with our stay and so was our 2 year old daughter. The open windows kept it cool. If we are ever visiting that area of the island again, we would definitely stay there.

  • What a fabulous place in which to find yourself at the end of each day in Hawaii! We recently chose to stay at Peter and Libby's cottage during the time of our niece's graduation from UH. Not a moment of regret was to be had: we relished every peaceful evening falling asleep in an incredibly comfortable bed, with the most pleasant island breezes drifting across us through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Heavenly! We truly wanted for nothing from the time of our warm welcome. Libby and Peter had provided everything we might have found ourselves needing, and more: very nice attention to detail and lovely little extra touches! Thank you again, for a wonderfully relaxing vacation!
