Very comfortable and well looked after. It’s cozy and perfect for one or two people. The driveway is very steep and so challenging for a senior. Lovely surroundings but need a car as itIs a hike to the main road/beach. The host sent me directions for a short cut but never did find it.

The cottage was the perfect place to stay for our visit to Kona. We so appreciated the convenience to the beach, the communication regarding check-in and check-out, and the peace and quiet of the neighborhood. I would highly recommend this sweet cottage to everyone. Thank you April for your hospitality.

Amazing location and great hosts! The space was clean and perfect with extra accommodations for people traveling. We had access to their water toys/ beach items/ sunscreen. It was a comfortable and relaxing spot with privacy and walkability to the beaches and dining options.

Beautiful peaceful cottage!

This cottage was perfect for my husband and I. It was clean, quiet, and comfortable. I appreciated the provided beach gear and beach towels. There was also a shared laundry room that was put to good use during our stay. Our host April was communicative and responsive, and also super friendly. Check-in and check-out was very easy and instructions were clear. Highly recommend staying here!

Lovely cottage

Everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We especially appreciated the beach chairs and umbrella. Even though it’s in a neighborhood, the cottage backs up to a bit of open space so it has a sense of privacy.

Fantastic getaway and lovely location

We stayed for 6 days, and it was perfect for us. It was a quick walk to a lovely location to watch experienced boarders and the sunset. And a quick drive to a perfect swimming and snorkeling beach. The cottage had all the amenities we needed to enjoy the beach. Host April was welcoming and gave us great recommendations. We truly appreciated the quiet while being close to Kona area activities. A perfect location to combine a beach and hiking vacation.
