Cozy, private rain forest retreat cottage situated above Kona in the Kaloko Mauka Honua'ula Forest Reserve.

This place is absolutely beautiful tucked up in the rainforest. You have a beautiful view the all the plants and friendly animals. The frogs will sing you a song each night and it's just a 15 minute drive to the ocean.

Best description? Magical.

We were enchanted by the lodging (aka a Ohana). Perfect for a couple. Lounging outside was sweet. Also got some fantastic sky watching on the last night.

Honeymoon Paradise

This is a great place to stay with you and one significant other. Beautiful sights and sounds, while still being close enough to town to go in if you want. Great launching point for adventures.

Vacation

I would have given this place a five-star rating, but having only one set of bath lines per person for two nights isn't a 5-star place. It's one thing to reuse a towel for two showers but not have to reuse the washcloth!

Cool cottage in the Clouds

We enjoyed our stay and proximity to all the great Kona beaches. The visiting pheasants were a lot of fun. The higher elevation made it great for sleeping at night.

Loved our stay in the adorable tropical cottage

My partner and I absolutely loved staying in the tropical cottage- it was so beautiful both inside and out, and had everything we needed. We loved the visits from the pheasants every morning and falling asleep to the coqui frogs every night. The landscaping is just gorgeous, and the decorations in the cottage are lovely. The perfect place for a little romantic retreat.

Very comfortable cottage

The cottage is very comfortable and private. You are surrounded by beautiful trees and flowers. The stars on a clear night are bright. The host was fantastic and you’re only 15 minutes from downtown Kona. This is a fun place to stay while you enjoy the rest of what the big island has to offer.
