Very cute, squeaky clean cottage in back of private home. Parking in shared driveway. Away ( but not far) from the hubub of Kona. Great location for getting to Two Step and Captain Cook. Had lovely lanai/patio out back with pretty landscaping. Had accedd to beach chairs and boogie boards which we used in the waves at Hapuna. Ruth and Buddy were welcoming hosts and were available if we needed anything. Only complaints were the tiny bathroom barely big enough for 1, and both the mattress and sitting couch could use replacing. No A/C, but we didn't need it. Fans were enough. Full size fridge was great also.

We very much enjoyed our 9 night stay. Great spot to explore the entire island from. Ruth and Buddy were fantastic, everything exactly as pictured and advertised.

We took advantage of the nearby beaches and appreciated the use of the snorkeling gear and the beach equipment. We visited a few nearby coffee farms and a roaster. The house was nice and a great place to relax.

Stayed in this wonderful cottage full of character amongst the cool forest and beautiful grounds for 12 days. Ruth, the owner made sure there was everything I needed to make my stay comfortable. Well stocked kitchen to prepare home cooked meals to eat inside or on the patio. The outdoor space is very peaceful with the sounds of local birds and singing frogs (yes you will hear them at night). Close to beaches, shops, restaurants which are a short drive away. Beach chairs, snorkel equip and boogies boards available to use. My favourite was Buddy, the dog who came by to greet me each morning...such a sweetheart!! I truly enjoyed my holiday and hope to return soon! Thank you Ruth & Buddy!

My daughter and I had a great time. Two items: 1. hot tub listed in the description, but none was available 2. didn't know about the noise from the frogs (didn't bother me) but my daughter needed to get some ear plugs. Other than that, we truly enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The host Ruth and her dog Buddy were very friendly and pleasant. Would stay there again.

We stayed at this cozy cottage for 4 nights. It is exactly as pictured. The weather was several degrees cooler than Kona, but still warm. The unit has louvered wooden blinds with screens, but no glass windows .We were surprised by the loud frog songs at night, bring earplugs!. The owner, Ruth, was delightful. We also enjoyed the fresh flower bouquet on the lanai. We'll be back.

The property was great, and Ruth and Buddy (the dog) were wonderful hosts.
The pool was nice, and the whole property is built to help you relax.
I’d definitely stay there again.

Beautiful cottage on a gorgeous property. I stayed here for 4 days and loved this place. It’s centrally located to Holualoa, Keauhou, Captain Cook and Kailua-Kona. Ruth and Jennifer have thought of everything for their guests, all amenities are in the suite. Loved my stay, would certainly return.
