"We enjoyed a very comfortable stay. The cottage was attractive, clean, and well stocked. The kitchen had all the equipment we needed to prepare the food we brought, and the outdoor BBQ was a plus. We dined on the screened porch; it was a perfect temperature and bug-free. Thank you!"

"Loved playing with the animals, walking with the goats and dogs, brushing the horses. It was a perfect break in the Hana highway journey on the way to the bamboo forest hike."

"The cottage was immaculate, yet welcoming with vintage Hawaii themed furnishings, and included a Betty Crocker picture cookbook from maybe 1960’s! Very thoughtful taste. Peaceful quiet and beautiful!"

"Very cute, clean, well stocked on supplies such as bathroom and kitchen necessities. Books, boardgames and a ping pong table. Beautiful view"

"We will be back"

"Gorgeous, peaceful bungalow with an ocean view. This is a great way to get away from it all and experience the road to Hana and beyond. We stayed two nights and really enjoyed it. Food options for dinner were several food trucks or a restaurant across the street that we passed on. We tried the Mexican food truck and nearby Huli Huli chicken. That and some provisions we picked up along the way filled us up after hiking and exploring. We would have tried room service but it was not app based and involved calling the restaurant across the street and maybe going to pick up. Instead, we just enjoyed the accommodations and ate banana bread for dessert. The staff were lovely and accommodating. The restaurant for breakfast was pretty good but not amazing. The property, tranquil ocean views and sounds, large bungalow and adjacent adventure are worth staying here to be off the grid in a semi luxurious environment surrounded by nature."

"We loved our 4-night stay at this lovely 2-bedroom house. It’s very quiet and private, surrounded by lush tropical plants. Both bedrooms and the deck have lovely eastern ocean views. (The house is not actually on the beach— it’s across the road and uphill from the water.) "

"Easy to find, and very comfortable. Nice coffee and granola bars for the morning! "

"The private location and the sound of birds in the morning."
