If you are looking for a busy resort experience, this is not it! This is the opposite of that. Farm animals, pets, fresh produce, gorgeous views. A true South Kona country experiece.

This lovely farm cottage was a perfect place to relax after exploring the incredibly diverse island of Hawaii. It is situated off the beaten track of Kona and the resort areas but conveniently enough to the Volcano National park, South Point, and Black Sand Beach. Couldn’t ask for nicer hosts. Really enjoyed fresh fruit from the farm and hope to visit again in the future.

We stayed at this property for 10 days in Oct and had a marvelous time.
Pros:
- very clean
- nice touches like good quality draperies, dishes and bedding, good appliances and well stocked kitchen. It is not fancy, but nice
- good communication with hosts; friendly people but not intrusive
- jaw dropping panorama views of the lush slope, with the ocean beyond and magical sunsets
- veranda is not pictured in the photos and it was better than expected: quite large with decent furniture including small dining table as well as coffee table and chairs, and 2 comfy lounge chairs.
- Even if it was 29 or 30 degrees celsius during the day, it cooled off nicely at night. In fact some nights we had to close the windows as it was a bit too cool for us. I wished I had brought a sweater for the evenings, but there were blankets in a trunk
- this is a rural area so you will hear frogs, neighborhood dogs, goats/ sheep bleating. With the dawn the roosters start to crow. What you won't hear is annoying people noise.
Cons:
- The road to Kona is a very curvy, but has reflectors which makes it doable in the dark. Arriving late in the dark it was a bit tricky finding the right door
-if you plan to see Volcano Park / S Point, as well as Kona this is a great halfway point. If you plan to do most of your activities in the Kona area or N, expect to drive that curvy road alot. Affordable groceries were an hour north. Our favorite beach was Kahalu'u, which was 45 min north.

My wife and I enjoyed our stay here. Host was responsive and easy to communicate with. House was great with an amazing view. Their pets were friendly and always welcomed us back to the house. Would definitely recommend this place.

We enjoyed being away from Kona and close to outdoor activities. The dog and cats were fun and hosts pleasant.

Delightful and cozy little home on a small organic farm was a perfect contrast to the usual resort stay. The seclusion and morning views of the ocean were wonderful. Good bed, good WiFi, well -equipped kitchen and friendly pets made us feel at home. Our hosts were friendly and helpful!

The cottage is comfortable, the location is peaceful, and the view is amazing! We had a great time and we highly recommend this if you prefer to stay somewhere outside of the crowded, touristy areas.

We had a lovely, relaxing stay here. The view from the farm cottage in unparalleled. Hosts were welcoming and wonderful. Home is clean and well stocked, even with beach gear! It was nice to be close to farms, nature, beaches and fresh produce in South Kona. Highly recommend!

The VRBO was a 20 min drive to Hilo and not far from other places we wanted to visit. It had everything we needed, but does not have air conditioning. From what we understand thats fairly common on the island, but even with the two fans it was still uncomfortably hot.
