"Our room unfortunately has little ants crawling around in the bathtub and bar area. Our carpet was also stained. The restaurant was good and had happy hour.

Oceanfront Cottage in Scenic 'Old Hawaii' - Off-Grid, solar-powered property.

10/10 Excellent
"This lovely "get away from the world" cottage just keeps getting better and better every time we visit (we've been coming here since 2015). As always, the host was quick to respond to questions and details before the stay; I appreciate the speedy response! The cottage is, as all have noted, an opportunity to disconnect from daily duties and the pull of electronic communication; I can vouch that if you have Verizon, you can get your connection down Red Road at Kalani's--it's also exceptionally strong over at Leilani Estates. But, really, think hard before you go get "reconnected" to the world--the appeal at the cottage is to just relax and absorb what this very special part of Hawai'i has to offer--seclusion, the never-ending sound of crashing waves, watching birds and butterflies hover over the unique-to-Hawai'i landscape, discovery walks right outside the door and the beauty of the ocean right in front of you. Don't miss these! I play 'ukulele and cherish those hours sitting on the front porch, watching the waving palms and the sparkling waves.The cottage was clean, wonderfully decorated (including some vintage items) and easy to live in. The water is hot for showering and the kitchen is simple but well-stocked. Beds are comfortable with lovely linens.There are so many reasons we keep returning year after year. This is a tradition we never want to miss."

"We stayed in the Garden room and found it to be a little peace of paradise all on its own. The host was absolutely fabulous, he would come over in the morning and get the coffee going, gave us an itinerary of events going on for each day of the week. On Monday he hosted a bonfire bbq, with drinks, food, and entertainment. We felt very welcome here. One of the highlights beyond the awesome hot tub in the jungle was the outdoor shower, now I want one at my house. This will definitely be our Hawaii home for every trip to the big island.
