Tranquil cottage in peaceful Kohala farm setting

This studio cottage sits on 5 acres of orchard, gulch and gardens with the Kohala coast as a backdrop. The owners farm the back 20 acres with cattle, sheep, goats and chickens. We are located midway between the towns of Hawi and Kapa'au--both known for their quaint shops and restaurants. Although only a 5-minute drive to town, the cottage is set back from the road and is completely surrounded by tall bamboo and ironwood trees ensuring a tranquil and private environment. Guests may wander the grounds to pick seasonal fruits, herbs and veggies, visit with the animals or kick back in a comfy hammock to enjoy the tradewinds. Complimentary Direct TV and internet are available for your convenience. There is a kitchenette complete with microwave, 2 burner hot plate, coffee maker, toaster oven, blender and refrigerator. It is fully supplied with dishes and cookware should you choose to prepare your own meals. There is a dining table with views of the front lawn and orchard and a country grocery store just across the street. The comfortable queen sized bed sleeps two and the bath has both tub and shower. Scenic Pololu Valley and lookout is a 20 minute drive to the north and Hapuna Beach State Park and Kohala resorts are a 25 minute drive to the south. Other activities in the area include kohala zip line, Upolu airport sky diving, and horse back riding. Farmers market at the HUB open on saturdays.

Beautiful Kawi Stay

The property is beautiful. The room is a studio but, very comfortable with nice extra touches. Hawi is small. Still, there were a few things within walking distance. Lots of beautiful unspoiled Hawaii very near by.

Serenity

We had a wonderful stay at this charming and lovely cottage. The studio unit had everything we needed plus the beautiful green yard with palm trees to look out was very special. The hosts were very gracious to make us feel welcome. We felt very fortunate to have spent a week at this special cottage. We hope to return next year.

Peaceful property full of nature

Lovely property! Peggy was so sweet and left me some tea and bruschetta in the the room and gave a quick your. I ended up getting sick but it was a great place to recover. They were very responsive and helpful. I enjoyed hanging out in the hammock, the amazing vegetation and the sweet animals! And the grocery store is so very close! Loved my stay here!

A really special place in Kohala

The setting was so beautiful. A lush, expansive, grassy lawn surrounded by gorgeous tropical trees and shrubs, a few ducks and hens roaming peacefully around the grounds. Very quiet, private, and peaceful. The room was comfortable and had everything we needed to cook a light meal or to just sit and relax. Peggy and Ken were wonderful hosts, checking in from time to time to see if they could help us in any way. We'll certainly be back.

Kohala Cottage

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It was well located for sightseeing on this part of the island and near to dining and shopping. The grounds were delightful and hidden from the main road. Peggy was gracious, accommodating and helpful. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.

Lovely, quiet, convenient cottage. Amazing hosts

We had a wonderful visit here. The hosts Peggy and Ken were amazing, friendly, and made us feel at home. Peggy even brought over homemade jam, bread, cheese, and a couple of slices of birthday cake during our stay. The property is quiet and beautiful. The cottage is well-maintained and private. It is also well within reach of many amazing Big Island beaches. We would stay here again!

Country Comfort

Wonderful cottage on farm nearby historic sites. Nearby snorkeling at Mokukona and Spencer. Nice swimming and hanging out at Spencer and Hapuna. Not for everyone if you aren't looking for a quiet farm setting. It's home to world's sweetest dog, Sushi. Overall, 5 stars.
