Absolutely picture perfect stay. Impressively decorated and incredibly comfortable cottage with a lot of quiet and privacy. It's only a partial kitchen, but that being said, it's stocked with so many additional appliances that it's easy to cook something simple for yourself if you need to.

The cottage and the property are just magical! The climate is quite different at 2,400 ft elevation - nice and cool. The creatures are fun to find - geckos and coqui frogs! The pheasants visit to say hello. Mary is a gracious host.

We loved the house and the details in the decor and lighting, but as other reviewers have stated, the yard and gardens are the show stopper- absolutely beautiful! And as a birder you can’t beat the back porch for bird watching and feeding the pheasants. The kitchen is small but we had everything we needed to make our meals there. You will not find a better accommodation for the price on the island. Don’t miss the Kona cloud forest and the sound meditation journey just up the street- it’s worth the price.

Everything we expected and more! This was our first of four locations we stayed at on our first trip to Hawaii and it was the best of the lot. It is located in the rain forest so it was quiet and we saw all forms of flowers and wildlife during the day. Then at night we had a spectacular view of a moonless sky full of stars and the coquis sang us to sleep. The front had a seating area with a view of the garden, the bedroom had a patio door to the large deck and additional seating options with another large garden where we could hand-feed the pheasants and there was a third patio door off the living area. All the typical amenities provided including a large TV, games, books, etc plus sunscreen and bug spray. There was plenty of dishes as well as seasonings and the refrigerator was stocked with a variety of condiments. Our host really thought of everything with bathroom products, room fresheners, even binoculars! We definitely would choose this location again!

Pictures cannot do the property/cottage justice- this is a spectacular rainforest paradise! Well-appointed, comfortable, and the temperature up in the forest was welcome respite from the heat in Kailua town. Host has thought of everything and communication was easy. Do not hesitate to book this property- it will be a highlight of your stay.

This cottage was so amazing! It was so secluded and surrounded by gorgeous plants and wildlife. Mary was very responsive and helped make our stay incredibly pleasant. It was only about 15 min from the main Kona area and super close to the start of the Kona coffee belt. The place was clean, well stocked and had a lot of outdoor lounging areas for the days we didn’t travel much. There was even a cute little family of pheasants that would visit us every morning. It was such a cool way to enjoy the island, I would highly recommend!

This place was spotless. The grounds are insanely pretty. At 2400ft elevation, it was cool wvery night. Mary, the host, is awesome. Minimal kitchen capabilities was only a slight issue. Really AMAZING and FABULOUS place to stay for a great price. Being right near the cloud forest sanctuary and many of the coffee farms was very nice as well
