Bedroom: Queen Bed

Kick off your flip-flops and head to your Hawaiian home-away-from-home for an easy afternoon inside this cozy cottage. Curl up with your favorite feel-good book on the living room couch or venture outside to explore the property. With undeveloped state land as your nearby neighbor, you'll have plenty of opportunity for tropical bird-watching right on site!

Treat your loved one to a makeshift luau right at home! Per tradition, utilize the gas grill for a juicy pork entree while side dishes are prepared in the fully equipped kitchen found inside the cottage. When you're ready to dine, enjoy dinner with a view at the 2-person table adjacent to the ocean-facing windows.

Top off the night with a mai tai or 2 on the private front porch. If you're looking for a grand finale, take a stroll down to the nearby beaches to watch the sunset over Kahaluu Bay - the perfect end to another day in paradise.

Wind down with a show on the flat-screen cable TV in the bedroom until you're lulled into a peaceful slumber on the plush queen-sized bed.

-- THE LOCATION --

This cottage is just a short stroll from the beautiful shores of Magic Sands Beach! With smooth white sands and crystal clear water, this public beach has gained popularity with locals and visitors alike. Spend a day sunbathing on the shore or venture out to experience scuba diving, surfing and sailing with the Big Island Divers Company.

Rent a bike and ride 5 miles up the coast to reach the heart of Kailua-Kona. This town is filled with shops, restaurants, museums, art galleries and plenty of local charm. Take an afternoon to explore the area until you’re ready for a Big Island beer at Kona Brewing.

Indulge your inner adventurer and drive less than 2 hours over to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park! This park is home to multiple volcanoes, including the active sites of Kilauea and Mauna Loa at the heart of it all. Admire the views from afar on the Crater Rim Drive or get a front-row view with a hike along one of the many park trails!

Best Honeymoon/Vacation Ever!
Hawaii was magical, and the house was everything we needed and didn't even know we needed! Being within walking distance of Magic Sands Beach as well as a public transit stop meant that we had so many options without having to find parking. It was not only convenient, but enjoyable. The house was so well stocked; every time we thought we might need a little something, we discovered it was already there (Bandaids, swimmers ear drops, cooking sprays and spices, etc). It was like staying at your best friend's house! Waking up to the natural light and birdsong was transformative, and was the perfect start to every day. There was good ventilation with windows and fans, plus AC when needed. Every little extra, from the available beach gear to the washer/dryer, made it a truly unforgettable experience. We can't wait to visit again!

Awesome
Good location. Quiet. Clean. Had everything we needed--even for watersports and beach time. Appreciate that it was simply decorated, not over the top beach kitsch, like so many other places. April responded quickly to the few questions we had. Great base camp for our 10 year anniversary getaway.

Incredible location and convenience
Don't miss this property! Perfect for solo travelers and couples, or friends if one is willing to sleep on the comfortably firm couch. Everything you need and centrally located to reach South and North Kona destinations. Easy rinseoff and drying for gear for snorkelers.

Delightful cottage in Kona
The place is very modern and beautiful. We enjoyed the fact that I had AC. The amenities in the home is wonderful! We had all we need to make some meals. Every inch of this guest home is masterfully designed, from the living room, height of the home to the bathroom--wonderful! Everything is very spectacularly designed. We felt like it was a great getaway. There is a little path that you can cut through to get to the beach. All the beaches are pretty close in distance within 1 mile to 2 mi. We surfed and snorkeled near by. The host has awesome Tommy Bahama Beach chairs that you can load up and wear to enjoy a long stay at the beach if you choose. We had a great time and enjoyed being able to stay in your guest home. Thank you very much! April was a great communicator and checked in before the trip to make sure everything went smoothly. It was a very easy clean up/ tidy process. It was wonderful to have parking as we rented a car for our Kona stay. Thanks for everything
