Stunning, Romantic Cottage on Slope of Hualalai

On the Kona side, safe and away from the volcanic activity, the Cottage awaits you.

The perfect, peaceful getaway for those on a honeymoon or looking for a relaxing, romantic experience. This warm, welcoming, newly-built and finely crafted studio cottage provides modern comfort while retaining the spirit of old Hawaii. This mountain paradise is surrounded by native trees and a tropical garden. The Cottage at Ohia Place is situated in North Kona, at a cool 1600' elevation on Mount Hualala'i in Kaloko Mauka.

The cottage is in close proximity to Kailua Kona village, shopping, restaurants, beaches, activities, the harbor, hiking trails and upcountry golf courses. The airport is 15 minutes away. Your host, Gale, lives on the 1.5 acres shared with the Cottage.

The accommodation features open beam wood ceilings, ohia hardwood floors, mahogany and granite kitchen, brand-new queen -sized bed (with a Memory Foam topper), large slate shower, fully equipped kitchen and a lovely lanai that enhances the inside/outside lifestyle of Hawaii.

The cottage is 720 sq feet under roof, including the lanai.

Your host will provide you with details about the many island activities, tours, sight-seeing, beaches and cultural experiences as well as shopping and restaurants, all within an easy driving distance from your home.

Born and raised in Kona, the host's father was one of the founders of the sports fishing business in Kona in the early 50s; she and her family remain closely involved with the fishing community. She has spent her professional life welcoming guests and connecting them to the rich traditions of the islands. We love the island of Hawaii: the vastness, the colorful and unique local customs, the sunshine and sunsets of the Kona Coast, and the hunting and fishing traditions of the Big Island.

A vintage picnic basket is available for your pleasure. If you're headed out to explore the island. You are welcome to use a cold bag for shopping, cooler, beach chairs and towels.

This is a place you will call home... will want to remember... and will return to.

Great Oasis
Super calm, beautiful chateau! The weather was cool and rainy so the evenings after beach play were comfortable. It was heavenly on the front porch listening to the birds, bugs and frogs in the mornings and evenings. Perfect getaway for 2

Outstanding Property for a phenomenal couple's getaway
My wife and I have stayed in many different vacation rentals all around the world and this is one of the best!!! This hillside cottage is away from the bustle of Kailua-Kona but only a 5-to-10-minute drive from shopping, coffee and the Airport. We heard nor saw traffic, day or night, but you will hear plenty of nature. The cottage itself is immaculate, well maintained and has all the required comfort conveniences, coffee makers, microwave, awesome toaster oven, gas cooktop and all dishes and utensils to match. High speed internet is awesome, and the bed is extremely comfortable. Gale is a great host, met us late, worked with our departure time and gave us great advice on where to go and what to see. I highly recommend this as one of the best rentals for 2 on the Big Island!!!

A Week In Paradise
Our stay at this AMAZING guest house was our best VRBO experience ever! When we arrived at the property, Gale, our host, met us and showed us around the property. More than that, Gale offered her vast knowledge of the Big Island like a personal concierge. She took the time to find out what we wanted to do during our one week stay and gave us excellent suggestions for restaurants, sights to see and things to do. The guesthouse is private, nicely appointed and VERY comfortable. The house has outstanding amenities and the area where it is located is absolutely lovely. If the house is available, book it. You won’t regret it!

Better than a 5 star hotel
There are not enough adjectives to describe how awesome this property is and how wonderful Gale is. We absolutely loved our stay at Gale”s gorgeous cottage. When we arrived Gale met us and gave us the tour and there was delicious banana bread! The cottage is just gorgeous and every amenity has been thoughtfully provided. We spent two weeks there and it flew by. We would love to come and stay again. Gale is an absolutely wonderful host.

Best Engagement Celebration Ever!
My son and his girlfriend got engaged in Kona, they were staying with friend's but my husband and I wanted a special place for them to go after they got engaged for 2 nights, Not only was Gale available to help with location for the engagement, she helped me set up a special Champagne toast for when my son and fiance arrived. They said it was the most beautiful place ever and that it was an Epic experience. Thank you Gale for providing the perfect romantic spot and all your help!

Mountain Garden Retreat In Paradise
We stayed 5 nights at The Cottage at Ohia Place and enjoyed every minute. Immaculate gardens dominate this property and gorgeous birds call them home. The stunning cottage with beautiful wood elements captures the natural essence of the island. With unmatched distant ocean vistas, this location makes you want to spend the entire day on the lanai taking it all in, especially the sunsets that are never the same with colors that last for an hour. Our host had every detail covered and spent time helping us learn about the property and the island. The cottage had every amenity we could wish for indoors and even a second shower outdoors surrounded by private, gorgeous lava rock walls in the garden. Our stay was beyond wonderful and we'll be back!

Fantastic place to stay!!!
Let me start with the negatives….ok there were none. This was a great place in a great location with a fantastic host. My wife is often hesitant to stay at a VRBO because you do not always know what you are going to get. This place shattered all of our expectations. We have stayed at the Four Seasons on the Big Island and these accommodations rival it. Beautiful bathroom and shower, comfortable bed, perfect kitchen and laundry. The grounds were pristinely manicured and beautifully designed. The outdoor shower was a nice touch. And everything was so so so clean. It was like we were the first people ever to stay here (and we were not). All the appliances and kitchen gadgets seemed unused. Amazing. Parking is easy and Gail even supplied beach towels, beach chairs and coolers if we wanted them. We went to a resort for the last few days on the big island but we wish we would have stayed longer at the VRBO. My only worry in singing such high praises is that it may not be booked when we come back. 😀

Beautiful scenic open-air Cottage
TThis cottage is one of a kind, tucked away on a family estate, approximately 5 miles above the shoreline of Kailua-Kona. It's on a quite hidden road, set back into a beautiful Hawaiian family estate. It's secure with a locked gate. The cottage has been impeccably thought out. The host personally furnished and maintains the interior of the property, and nothing has been left out. The cottage and interior are so well maintained that you feel like you are the first guest. From beach towels to outdoor shower, to umbrellas to ponchos to a yoga mat, you have it all. She greeted us on our arrival with a wonderful loaf of bread made from Hawaiian Apple bananas and did a very informative walkthrough of the property. You are sure to create many memories as we did, sitting out at the front lanai overlooking the beautiful, landscaped garden and listening to the sounds of the Hawaiian wildlife. If you are looking for a cozy, comfortable, peaceful place yet only minutes away from the shoreline and the city, look no further.

Wonderful, peaceful cottage.
We had a wonderful, restful and peaceful stay at this beautiful cottage.. Gale is a wonderful host who works hard to pay attention to every detail. Her Place was incredibly clean and lovingly stocked with extra touches like a yoga mat, a spice rack, condiments in the fridge amd an air printer. Her grounds are extraordinary. We hope to visit her again.
