Cozy, private rain forest retreat cottage situated above Kona in the Kaloko Mauka Honua'ula Forest Reserve.

We are located 2 miles above the upper Mamalahoa Highway in a rural setting. Only 10 minutes to the airport, town of Kona, and beaches. This cottage has a great back deck for star gazing and enjoying your meal. The living room is furnished with a comfy double recliner, desk, and swivel mounted 43-inch flat screen TV that can also be viewed from the dining area, DVD player, and WiFi/streaming.

This cottage was truly an amazing experience. Very clean space, although it is in a forest, you can tell this property is well looked after. You wake up every morning to pheasants, and they eat straight out of your hand. Very spacious, and the bathroom has a lot of free toiletries. If you’re thinking about booking, noon this place! The pictures do not do it justice!

Secret hideaway

Beautiful little cottage away from the busyness of the resorts. The property is like being in your own private oasis. You can get to anywhere you want to go from there and when you return you have your own private space. We are hoping we have the opportunity to return one day.

Beautiful hideaway!

This is a super nice cottage 15 min from the bustle of Kona. The gardens are beautiful (but do beware of mosquitoes at night). The house is well supplied, even with beach chairs and snorkeling gear. The sun sets are gorgeous. We wish we could have stayed longer!!!!

Beautiful scenery and cozy cabin

It was a cute little cabin and had most everything we needed. There’s even beach gear, including an umbrella. The only thing I wished it had was a regular mid size frying pan, but there was one with very low sides for pancakes. Other than that it was a great place to stay and the scenery was beautiful. Also, the host is easy to contact and very helpful.
