Location: Honokaa, Hamakua Coast, Big Island, Hawaii, USA (Centrally Located, One Hour from either Kona or Hilo Airport)
Accommodations: Cottage, Studio + Convertible bed(s), 1 Bath (Sleeps 2-4)
Keywords: Vacation Cottages
Our private cottages enjoy a spectacular view of the Pacific Ocean, lush tropical gardening, and enchanting starry nights. Breathtaking Waipio Valley, with its black sand beach, is only seven miles away. Our central location makes the Volcano, Akaka Falls, the Botanical gardens, and snorkeling beaches and all the other sights an easy and beautiful drive away.
A short walk away from our quiet two acres are quaint shops, local style restaurants, historic theater, and an old plantation town where time has stood still.
Our quiet tropical paradise lets you feel as if you are miles from civilization-but you can walk to town for groceries, a pizza, and a movie.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2000
I am the resident manager (but not the owner) for Luana Ola Cottages, and I have been a resident of Hawaii Island for seven years. I lived several places on the mainland working for large corporations and being married, but now single, I enjoy my life in paradise walking, hiking, the beaches, snorkeling, volunteer work, cultural activities and enjoying my community. I have also served in management capacities with two music festivals on the island. Cleo is my cat, and you may see her around the cottages.
Why the Owner Chose Honokaa
The owners, Marsha and Ray, bought the cottages, then added the main residence. Their two teenage children lived in the cottages until they were converted to vacation rentals. They moved to Hawaii Island from Napa Valley, CA to live a more family oriented life style with their children.
The Unique Benefits of this Cottage
The ocean views from my two lanis, and meeting so many of the wonderful people who stay with us, return again, and recommend our cottages to friends and family. The town of Honokaa is only a few blocks away, so I rarely drive my car.

Tucked away yet so convenient to explore the island

We loved this simple little cottage with the awesome view and nightly serenade from the forest creatures. We used Honokaa as a base to to explore Waipio Valley, Waimea, Hawi, Hilo, and Waikoloa the first week of our Big Island vacation. The town of Honokaa is quaint with choices in dining and shopping. The Simply Natural shop has the best coffee we found during the entire vacation. The hot malasadas at Tex Drive In are sinful-- luckily we didn't find them until the last day. Spend your days exploring and come "home" to your cottage in Honokaa. We did just that and loved it. P.S. If you're in Waimea stop by pizza at Pau.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, adventure seekers, sightseeing, age 55+.

My husband and I adore this place! We try to go every year in the summer for a relaxing and romantic vacation. The views are breathtaking, the town itself is very charming, and the owners are very nice and helpful. So much better that staying in an expensive crowded resort. It is very tropical but not too hot or humid and so much nicer than staying in dessert like Kona. About 10 minutes drive from the stunning Waipio Valley black sand beach (it has hiking, horseback riding, atv's and waterfalls!) and about an hour away from both Kona and the Volcano. The decor in the cabins is very cute, like 1950's Hawaii but with a bit more class and are equipped with satellite TV and DVD player. Our Cabin also had fruit trees around it and the property also has coi pond. Staying there always makes me feel like a movie star hiding out from the paparazzi. You can walk to town from the cabin where there is shopping, restaurants (but we prefer to cook in the cabins kitchen), grocery store, gym, yoga studios and even an old movie theater that plays indie films and blockbusters. We just really love the place! It is a hidden jewel and a real Hawaii experience, not some lame Honolulu tourist trap. We highly recommend it!
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, adventure seekers, families with teenagers, sightseeing, age 55+, girls getaway.
