Heaven on Earth
Posted May 27, 2024 on HomeAwayI took a 10-day solo trip to the big island for my 30th birthday. I wanted something that honored the natural beauty of Hawai’i. Mary’s Garden House hideaway was exactly that. The views from her lovely home were incredible and the location allowed me to see more of the east side of the island during this trip. I already can’t wait to return to see Hawai’i, Mary, and her sweet dog, Copper. A hui hou.

Property was very convenient to Honoka' and other parts of Hawaii; internet connection was great.
Posted Apr. 16, 2024 on HomeAwayWe were delighted with Honoka'a and enjoyed an evening at a ranch west of Waimea, day trips to Kona, Hilo, a tropical garden, Hilo Farmer's market, and Captain Cook monument (for two of us hikers). The accommodations were great for 6 adults. Also enjoyed the oranges off the tree in the backyard.

This review was written for a vacation rental in a different location. It is not about Garden Home Hideaway.

Tucked away

Birthday weekend in paradise
Posted Mar. 1, 2024 on HomeAwayMary’s cottage was the perfect place to call home for a birthday weekend where we wanted to unplug and refresh. Such a quaint space and a great location to explore the eastern side of the island. She had great recommendations and made us feel right at home.

Posted Feb. 14, 2024 on HomeAwayWe really enjoyed our stay at the Garden Cottage. A nice quiet place to relax after a day out and about. Cottage was about 20-25mins drive to Hilo. The instructions for getting to the cottage were very easy to follow and we had no problem getting there. Overall a very nice relaxing place to stay. Thanks Mary and Copper.

Enjoyed our stay
Posted Jan. 31, 2024 on HomeAwayWe enjoyed staying at this property. Very nice set up, peaceful and quiet. Was a bit worried about no wifi, but mobile data worked great since there is a signal booster.

Mary, our hostess was delightful, welcoming and helpful! The cottage was so tastefully done and it felt like we were in a park with beautiful foliage and flowers that Mary created! From the Tea Room, we saw beautiful sunrises over the ocean!!
We would definitely love to stay there again🌺

Peaceful, idyllic setting with a beautiful view of the ocean.
Posted Sep. 18, 2023 on HomeAwayThe property is very well maintained, very clean, and Mary provided everything we could need during our stay. She was an excellent host, and the cottage was decorated to make us feel welcome and at home.
