This was a perfect place to stay. The host couple are incredibly kind and caring. You can tell they truly put their heart into taking care of the whole property. The room was very clean and spacious. Everything was well prepared — TV, microwave, coffee, towels, extra blankets — all thoughtfully provided. The view from the balcony was beautiful. Occasionally, their rescued little cats would stop by to say hello, which made the stay even more special. This is definitely a place I would come back to again.

We had a wonderful stay! The place was very nice, spotless, and well maintained. You can really tell the host puts a lot of care into the home. On top of that, the owner is an incredibly kind person who has adopted disabled cats — which honestly made the experience even more special. Such a big heart and genuine hospitality. Highly recommend staying here, and we would absolutely come back!

The cottage was absolutely lovely, clean and had great amenities - everything we could ask for. We stayed in the 2 bedroom cottage, which was up to date and decorated beautifully. The communication by the owners was tremendous from directions to recommendations on things to do. We found it so peaceful and loved sitting on the lanai enjoying the view of the ocean in the distance. I highly recommend it!

The room was big with everything we needed, including a kitchenette and a Terrace. From the Terrace we could see a sliver of the ocean. The bathroom was excellent with a walk in shower. There was no AC, but multiple fans did a great job of moving the air around. A big kitchen was available outside the units, where we could cook and serve and eat a full meal. Fresh fruits and veggies were provided from the site plantation. We really appreciate that. It was very enjoyable to spend time there.

Beautiful gem

The property is peaceful and beautiful, on lush grassy slopes overlooking the ocean, surrounded by orchards of tropical fruit trees. Randy is a wonderful and considerate host, always ready to give helpful info on the area, or to let you enjoy your privacy as you prefer. For cat lovers, there is a charming group of friendly felines on the farm property. Highly recommend it— the best place we’ve stayed anywhere in Hawaii! 🌴 🌈 🌊 ⛰️

The best

Absolutely superb. Randy thought of everything to make this a quiet, friendly, comfortable place to stay. A quiet retreat. It put a dent in our tourist activities, though, because we didn’t want to leave! It’s good to do some grocery shopping before you get there, as there are minimal food options in the immediate area.

I like the property itself, it’s a small place a bit out of the beaten path but the room is pretty much an apartment and as there are only few rooms and a common area, feels ideal for 2 or 3 couples traveling together. Just be aware it’s a bit far from town
