Cozy, private rain forest retreat cottage situated above Kona in the Kaloko Mauka Honua'ula Forest Reserve. Located on a 3-acre property, this cottage is set away in a lush forest of Ohia trees and Hapu'u tree ferns. Enjoy the sweet aroma of ginger surrounding this one bedroom cottage--perfect for a romantic getaway! Escape the heat of the Kona coast and come explore the mauka forest and trails of Kaloko with excellent bird watching at this cool elevation of 2300 feet. We are located 2 miles above the upper Mamalahoa Highway in a rural setting. Only 10 minutes to the airport, town of Kona, and beaches. This cottage has a great back deck for star gazing and enjoying your meal. The living room is furnished with a comfy double recliner, desk, and swivel mounted 43-inch flat screen TV that can also be viewed from the dining area, DVD player, and WiFi/streaming.

Adorable little house
This cottage is small but cozy. My husband and I very much enjoyed our recent stay and had everything we needed. The grounds are simply amazing, it's a little gem!

Beautiful private cabin, would love to stay again
Gorgeous cabin and surrounding garden! I was initially a little off-put by the lack of curtains in the living area, but quickly realized it was because it was surrounded by greenery and private. The bedroom has blackout curtains, which is nice. The presentation and decoration was top notch. The family of pheasants that come to eat the scratch provided was definitely a perk. If you miss them in the morning, they will probably visit in the afternoon. There are water activity gear on the back porch like body boards, flippers, pool noodles, etc. The coquis at night are loud and reminded me of Puerto Rico, and added to the tropical vibe. I loved the chorus as it is something I would not hear at home. Lots of mosquitos outside as well. I found bug sprays in the cabin. There are a few pots of stagnant water out front which I suspect might be contributing to the mosquitos. Google maps tells you that you have arrived well before the actual entry onto the property, depending on which direction you are coming from. Ignore it and drive a little further until you see a set of mailboxes on one side and a driveway across from them. Absolutely lovely place, I hope to be back again and will be recommending to everyone. Thanks!

The perfect tranquil retreat!
We loved our stay in this cozy, private, and serene cottage. It is exactly what we needed to relax and unwind for our first few days in Kona. The cottage is located a short drive from Kona town on it’s own piece of land on a bit of elevation (cooler nights and mornings) surrounded by rainforest. The backyard lanai is huge and has incredible rainforest views and we loved feeding the pheasants and chickens (thanks for the pheasant food!). The interior of the property is extremely well decorated. Every corner has been thought out and designed to it’s most beautiful potential. We loved the wood work on the ceiling and cabinets. Shower and bed were great. Thanks for providing coffee. Hearing the nature sounds as we fell asleep was most delightful. Mountain thunder coffee plantation is very close by and if you enjoy coffee, their free tour is a must do activity - free coffee samples and learned a lot about the Kona coffee making process. The hosts were great. Overall a great stay and we highly reccommend if you want peace and privacy.

Amazing stay in the cloud forest!
This property was beautiful and the owners were lovely to communicate with. Being higher up it provided a wonderful reprieve from the heat of the day. There were many thoughtful additions such as snorkeling equipment, a beach blanket, picnic supplies, and a kitchen with all the necessities and even a few extras! I highly recommend this property!
