Private Cottage In The Rain Forest TA065882726401

Cozy, private rain forest retreat cottage situated above Kona in the Kaloko Mauka Honua'ula Forest Reserve. Located on a 3-acre property, this cottage is set away in a lush forest of Ohia trees and Hapu'u tree ferns. Enjoy the sweet aroma of ginger surrounding this one bedroom cottage--perfect for a romantic getaway! Escape the heat of the Kona coast and come explore the mauka forest and trails of Kaloko with excellent bird watching at this cool elevation of 2300 feet. 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. The kitchen has granite counter tops, equipped with a full-size refrigerator, counter top induction burner, coffee maker, and electric barbecue out back.

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.

This place is absolutely beautiful tucked up in the rainforest. You have a beautiful view the all the plants and friendly animals. The frogs will sing you a song each night and it's just a 15 minute drive to the ocean.

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!!!!

Loved this little piece of paradise! The pictures do not do it justice. The frog sounds at night, the pheasants visiting the backyard, the amazing porch and yard area. We loved it all! Thank you! Perfect location and hope to come back!

This is a great place to stay with you and one significant other. Beautiful sights and sounds, while still being close enough to town to go in if you want. Great launching point for adventures.

This is the most delightful VRBO I have ever stayed in. I absolutely adore it and never want to leave. It is absolutely serene. I was a little nervous about finding the location after leaving a workshop that I knew I would need some processing time to myself for before returning to my regular life, but I have the place I want my regular life to me. But she gave me a good reminder about finding it, and the entry into the space was easy and welcoming.The host is responsive and gave some extra information about the wild pheasants which I also adore now. :)Mahalo 3

I would have given this place a five-star rating, but having only one set of bath lines per person for two nights isn't a 5-star place. It's one thing to reuse a towel for two showers but not have to reuse the washcloth!

This place is absolutely amazing! So tranquil! Our only wish was that we would have spent our whole vacation here- truly a paradise!

This cottage is as lovely as all the other reviewers say it is! Highly recommended for a quiet and cool retreat, only 15 minutes from downtown Kona.

My partner and I absolutely loved staying in the tropical cottage- it was so beautiful both inside and out, and had everything we needed. We loved the visits from the pheasants every morning and falling asleep to the coqui frogs every night. The landscaping is just gorgeous, and the decorations in the cottage are lovely. The perfect place for a little romantic retreat.

This cottage is even better than the pictures!!! First time we stayed at a rental that exceeded our expectations! The owners are wonderful and had great recommendations. Highly recommend!!

This cabin has everything you could ask for, including a lanai with a flock of Hawaiian pheasants nearby. It is, however, difficult to find in the dark (a common experience if you've just come from The Mainland). Written directions were not sufficient and assumed that the visitor had access to GPS. So, there was some fumbling around on our part that made us totally miss a spectacular sunset. Other than that initial experience, everything was fine. Stores and restaurants are near, but not TOO near -- welcome relief in an area that is loaded with all the accoutrements of a large Mainland suburb and tourist colony immediately down the hill. The grounds around the cabin are lovely and the kind of relaxed Hawaiian atmosphere that many visitors seek awaits.
