Wonderful, private and cozy cottage up in the forest of Kaloko Mauka ( directly above Kona town!). Situated on 5 acres and 2700 foot elevation, this stand alone cottage is surrounded by beautiful ohia trees and is at least 300 feet from the main residence. The owners live further down on the property. Wild chickens and native birds abound.
Kaloko is a special place with cooler weather than you will find down in town. It's nice to retreat up here after a hot day at the beach. Afternoon/evening rain does occur and it provides perfect sleeping weather. Evenings/mornings in the winter months can be cool, so we recommend light sweaters/socks if you get cold.
We are located on Mount Hualalai right above Kailua Kona. This one bedroom house has a small deck on the front and a larger deck with yard in the back. Nice and secluded. Perfect for the couple wanting a romantic getaway!
10 minutes to the airport, beaches and shops. Hike the mountain trail, birdwatch or just relax on the lanai! .
We have 2 rental homes on this property.: For those families that need a little more room, please inquire about our other vacation rental #186204! We will give families a discount for renting both cabins.

I stayed there for a triathlon close by. Great spot to get some rest where it's a bit cooler up the hill.
Great communication with the owners as well.

My husband and I came here for 10 days to celebrate our 20th anniversary, and we were not disappointed! We have been to the Big Island many times, mostly camping and traveling. This time we decided to stay put and just RELAX! This sweet little cottage had everything we needed to do just that: complete kitchen, washer/dryer, a comfy living area with good internet, a very confortable queen sized bed with nice bedding, and last but not least, a hottub on the back deck access through a sliding glass door in the bedroom!! We soaked pretty much every evening after loafing on the beach or hiking in the rainforest. Evenings and mornings can be chilly up here so plan accordingly. The cottage is about 10 minutes up the side of the volcano from Kona with easy access to the coast, town and beaches. The cottage provided beach chairs, soft cooler and umbrella. Also boogie boards that we planned to but never used. All in all 10/10!

Great place for some quiet time. Surrounded by a beautiful rain forrest.. Very clean and had everything we needed.
Water pressure a bit low in the shower, but not an issue. Plenty of hot water.
Loved walking the area in the am.
Our flight was delayed and it's very dark in this area, so had a rough time finding the place. Didn't realize at first we had to go through a gate. Have to get out to open and close. Not bad, but it rained a lot.
Great place to get some R&R.

We loved this place! The cottage setting is an almost surreal Hawaiian cloud forest awash in lush vegetation and colorful flowers but only a 10 minute drive from Kailua-Kona. Caroline provided detailed directions with pics so we had no problem finding the place but the paved mountain road is a bit steep so make sure your rental car is up for the challenge. The house is comfortable for 2 adults and features a well stocked kitchen, plenty of bath linens, and a commercial grade washer & dryer set. We did not use the hot tub. We thoroughly enjoyed our 6 night stay.

I cannot begin to describe how much we enjoyed the cottage.. Absolutely everything we could have possibly needed was there. We loved the privateness of the cottage. It felt like we were miles from everything yet access to the beach, grocery stores, dining in Kailua, etc.. was only 15-20 minutes away. It is the perfect island getaway for two.. I’ve stayed at other vacation rentals on the island but this has by far been the best. From the cool temperatures, beautiful foliage and easy access to everything, I can’t imagine a better place to stay. We will most definitely stay here on our next trip to the Big Island.

We loved our stay here! The location was amazing - it felt like we were staying in the jungle. The cottage had everything we needed and some nice extra details (such as the mattress warmer for those chilly mountain mornings). If you’re thinking about staying here, do yourself a favor and book it!

We chose this property for the location, but the cottage's tranquil beauty and comfortable accommodations were a big bonus! Adding little personal touches like the fresh flowers, hand written welcome notes and hand sewn quilt on the bed made it so inviting. The cottage was well equipped with just about anything you might need. Best of all, our hosts were prompt and responsive with email communication and their directions/instructions were easy to follow. Thank you for a wonderful stay, Caroline & Scott!
