This cottage is perfect for a couple looking to save money but still have a million dollar view. In Kealakekua Bay, just 3 minutes from some of the best snorkeling and wildlife viewing in the world, atop 49 tropical steps sits this private bungalow. There is a full sized outdoor kitchen, and modernized indoor/outdoor bathroom. This rental is suggested only for people confident in climbing 49 steps (see photos) multiple times daily as the stairs climb high to get the beautiful views and privacy.
The house is located on a private road. There is a kitty cat that will come and visit and ask for snacks, she is very sweet. There is a 10p.m. no noise ordinance for the neighborhood. Noise travels very easily in the bay, you might not see people but you can still hear them. You can always go inside if you want to stay up later.

We really enjoyed staying at this absolutely beautiful little paradise. Everything was perfect, how it is integrated right in the middle of nature with so many lovely details. The owner is Super nice and we enjoyed the company of his sweet little cat - we will definitely rent it again next time when we come back here for vacation.

Everything was perfect. 5-12 drive to 3 beaches which provided terrific swimming and snorkeling spots. Everything you need is on property except for food of course. Will stay again and highly recommend.Gus was also available every time I reached out.

We stayed here for 4 days and fell in love with the views, privacy and quiet. Could hear the waves crashing in the distance. All of the amenities you might need in the kitchen, comfortable bed, beach chairs to use. Location is really convenient to exploring this side of the island, particularly for any tours to Captain Cook or night snorkeling with manta rays as well as city of refuge and Two step.. And we enjoyed the visits from the neighborhood cat Parks.

We could not have enjoyed our stay more. The building and grounds were more than we had hoped. The bedroom was situated in a way that provided an exquisite view of the bay while still feeling private and secluded. The kitchen in the back of the building had all we needed to prepare our meals. We hope to come back and visit again in the future. We could not have been more pleased. The only problem we have found is that other rentals will have a very hard time living up to this experience. Thanks so much allowing to stay at your property.

We celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary in this delightful cottage. We loved the airy, open layout and the view is even better than in the photos. Close to great snorkeling spots and hiking trails, we enjoyed every minute and will definitely rebook this property.

We had an amazing experience during our 1 week stay. The house was comfortable, spacious, clean, and QUIET! Loved the tranquil atmosphere and watching the dolphins in the bay each mornings was just huge bonus. Minutes to some of the best snorkeling in the state and convenient driving to Kona and Volcano. We highly recommend this location and can't wait to come back!

Place was great. Loved the location. Sunrise and sunsets were epic. Also plenty of great snorkeling spots that were just a short drive away. Place had a full kitchen and refrigerator which was very useful. Basically glamping in heaven.

Amazing location, unbelievable view for morning coffee (and for sunsets too), a super comfortable bed for falling into at night, a beautiful shower for washing off the ocean, all around a wonderful spot. Away from the noise and the bustle. What a magical getaway place. We snorkeled every morning, kayaked in the bay below, and overall had a ball.

Loved every bit of staying here! Wasn't quite as privacy friendly as we thought but it was well worth it. We'd love to come back sometime. The cat was sooo cute so we bought her some treats while we were there. The owners were great. We had a lovely time.

Descriptions were very accurate. The place was awesome. Need to be comfortable with using bathroom in open air but with a view - a great idea architecturally! View, sounds, location - all were great.

Location was ideal: At elevation so that it is nice and cool, and within walking distance to Manini Beach Park. Also, loved the view of Keleakekua Bay from the lenai. Every amenity needed was there, including the most affectionate black cat!

This rental is fabulous. There is only one (bed)room, with windows on all four sides. In front the ocean view is stunning. On the back there is the outside kitchen and a beautiful back yard. From the kitchen, one sees the ocean through the room. Sanitary is detached. The place is very quiet, as we expected, and the privacy is very good. The property is very well kept and is well equipped. We had many very good rentals (and a few not so good). This one is by far the best one.

An open concept home that has the perfect tropical views of the bay. If you want to experience tropical living then this is the place. Everything needed for your stay is available. Very clean. Quiet. All the better to hear all of the birds and wind in the foliage. Highly recommend a stay here.

A perfect location! You can do whale watching from your balcony and even from the shower... The kitchen is perfectly staffed with everything you need and more. Even a hamilton beach for smothies.
