It was a joy and relief to be in this lovely, quiet space in a natural setting. Near enough to the ocean and town if desired.

Creative South Point Experience
Polar opposite of staying in a standard hotel. I completely enjoyed the freedom to take in this unique environment. Every detail was obviously thought out and I especially appreciated the woodworking detail. Mahalo for you thoughtful hospitality. Tim

Quiet, Peaceful, and Clean
The rental was quiet, peaceful, private, and very clean. It's in close proximity to the village of Naalehu and within easy driving distance of the trailhead for the Green Sand Beach.

Wonderful peaceful getaway near South Point and close enough for a trip to Volcano National Park.
Cozy cottage with everything we needed to get away from it all. Vickie was a fantastic host and her coffee was delicious!

Quiet seclusion in Ka'u!
This property was the perfect respite after visits to south point and green sands beach. Very secluded and quiet, well appointed and thought out. A definite recommend! The owners quickly sorted out a very unique situation with another set of guests. Thank you Vickie and Wes!

True Paradise
Wow, just wow. What a slice of heaven. We couldn't have asked for a better stay. The only problem was we didn't have more time to spend here. The property is spacious and private. Ocean and sunrise views? Yup! The cottage itself is very well designed, well maintained, and super clean. All of the amenities to make us feel at home were at our fingertips. Highly recommended to stay at this location!
