This cottage is perfect for a couple looking to save money but still have a million dollar view. In Kealakekua Bay, just 3 minutes from some of the best snorkeling and wildlife viewing in the world, atop 49 tropical steps sits this private bungalow. There is a full sized outdoor kitchen, and modernized indoor/outdoor bathroom. This rental is suggested only for people confident in climbing 49 steps (see photos) multiple times daily as the stairs climb high to get the beautiful views and privacy.
The house is located on a private road. There is a kitty cat that will come and visit and ask for snacks, she is very sweet. There is a 10p.m. no noise ordinance for the neighborhood. Noise travels very easily in the bay, you might not see people but you can still hear them. You can always go inside if you want to stay up later.

As described, this residence was largely open air with a commanding view; think comfortable glamping in the tree tops! The bedroom and bathroom were enclosed and quite comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped with a full sized fridge and stove. The little, friendly geckos were everywhere and quite adorable. The area around Captain Cook was nicely situated for a large variety of activities including hiking, kayaking, snorkeling and biking. Groceries, coffee and excellent restaurants (especially Keei Cafe!) were also within close driving distance. If you can manage stairs, this cottage is highly recommended.

Amazing location, unbelievable view for morning coffee (and for sunsets too), a super comfortable bed for falling into at night, a beautiful shower for washing off the ocean, all around a wonderful spot. Away from the noise and the bustle. What a magical getaway place. We snorkeled every morning, kayaked in the bay below, and overall had a ball.

We celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary in this delightful cottage. We loved the airy, open layout and the view is even better than in the photos. Close to great snorkeling spots and hiking trails, we enjoyed every minute and will definitely rebook this property.

My husband and I were seeking a quiet place to take in the beauty and roaches of the Big Island. We found all that and more in this exquisitely situated bungalow nestled into the side of a hill overlooking the bay. The view is a wow. The quiet simplicity was just what we were hoping for. We wish we could stay a month. Next time for sure!

Combination of resort and Hawaiian camping. This is a well appointed, comfortable place to relax. Lots of outdoor space with comfortable furnishings

We’ve knicknamed this place Our Treehouse. We loved it and already booked for next year!
Spectacular view of the ocean. It was nestled into the side of the hill and very quiet. There were several spaces on the lanai for us to spread out, choose different settings and enjoy being outdoors with the sounds of nature.
We found it peaceful and restorative…a great place to re-energize.
Kitchen had everything we needed. Bed was comfortable and bathroom/laundry had supplies to at least get you started.
Thank you for everything Gus! Looking for to next year!

Descriptions were very accurate. The place was awesome. Need to be comfortable with using bathroom in open air but with a view - a great idea architecturally! View, sounds, location - all were great.

A perfect location! You can do whale watching from your balcony and even from the shower...
The kitchen is perfectly staffed with everything you need and more. Even a hamilton beach for smothies.
