We spent our 30th anniv. here last week. Everything was awsome and enjoyed the tidepools which are full of fish and even seen a huge sea turtle on the last day. They are building a new home next door, but the workers were only there after 8 and left in the early evening and where not overly distracting.

Stayed for a wk ret’d 8/30/11. I agree Rikki (owner) was great and had the Aloha Spirit. If you are using a GPS, type “Pahoa” otherwise GPS won’t find it. Must share our “all time” favorite restaurant in Hilo, “Ponds” ask for a table by the pond and ask for fish food, our waitress was Glennis (off on Tues) She was the BEST!! Must do: Wed, Hilo Marketplace, Volcano, discovered the island and we zip lined awesome!! Very private cottage, and perfect for R &R.

This cottage is a perfect getaway on the Big Island of Hawaii. It is in a great location directly in front of the tidepools in Kapoho. You can see the sunrise right from the front balcony! The owner Riki was so helpful and wonderful to rent from. Thank you so much for sharing your cottage with us during our Hawaiian Honeymoon!

Location, Location, Location ! ! ! Loved our stay at this peaceful ocean cottage. Coffee and Sunrise from bed in the morning, snorkling before breakfast and a nice walk around the neighborhood after. Lots of good exploring in the area and a close drive away. Enjoyed the Farmers Market and Ramones margaritas in Hilo ! I would love to move-in and become a permanent resident. Mahalo and Aloha ! !

Enjoyed our stay at this cottage. Oceanfront location is peaceful and beautiful. Located in a wonderful area on the east side of the Big Island with access to tidepools and snorkeling. Also very accessible to the current volcano viewing area near Kalapana. Thanks!

We loved this cottage! It exceeded our expectations in so many ways. First, the location is incredible. The tide pools are so amazing. We had no idea how great the snorkeling could be in such a unique environment. The cottage is charming and very comfortable. It was interesting to watch the tidepool visible from the kitchen rise and fall with the tide. We were there for a full moon and it was magical. Pahoa has some really great restaurants. The area is full of places to explore. The owner is super helpful. I am looking forward to returning!
