This cottage is a wonderful home base for a stay on the Big Island. It truly has all the comforts of home, including a well-stocked kitchen, comfy beds, 3 separate AC units that do a great job keeping the place cool and comfortable, plenty of beach towels and beach chairs, etc. Relax on a chaise lounge on the front deck amidst lush tropical vegetation and watch the local wildlife go by - we saw everything from giant wild turkeys to tiny green geckos. We are scuba divers, and Puako Beach Road has multiple amazing shore dive sites within a minute or two of the cottage. The General Store has tanks, weights, and anything else you need for diving —- plus delicious cookies and all kinds of other treats. The cottage’s outdoor shower makes it so easy and convenient to rinse off dive equipment and beach gear at the end of the day. Then stroll 2 houses down to the nearest shore access to watch the sunset over the water! The owner lives on the property and is very helpful if you need anything - otherwise you’d never know he’s there. But be sure to ask him about Radiant!
