The property was beyond fantastic! I was looking for a few days of peace and tranquility, away from the concrete jungle of Oahu, and I found my new little slice of heaven. The cottage is wonderful, the neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful I didn't want to leave. Wonderful little place I can't recommend high enough. I will be going back.
Loved the house and the folks that shared it with us! This house had everything you needed to enjoy your stay. Super comfy bed, great views, amazing sunsets, and dark peaceful nights to star gaze. Loved the the location which drops you between Kona and Hilo with coffee and groceries not far away. Absolutely recommend and will stay there again.
Unique experience in a comfortable cottage with all amenities, yet while using solar energy and purified rain water. Beautiful sunsets, lush trees, chirping birds, and an assertive rooster. Plenty of nearby beaches and Hawaii Volcanoes national Park is only 80 minutes away. Hosts are friendly and attentive.
This place is magical- the only noise you hear are natural ones (the frogs at night were wonderful), and that peace of mind is deeply soothing. Also, Dennis has the best starfruit I’ve ever had!
Perfect for our honeymoon, and the only place we want to stay when we visit again 3
I had a wonderful time at the dome cottage! Staying an hour south of Kona let me feel like I was being immersed in Hawaii, while also being a great location to make trips to Volcano or Kona. I enjoyed cooking dinner while watching the sunset on the ocean, and listening to the sounds of birds and frogs outside my windows. Truly a peaceful stay!
Effortless process from start to finish. Dennis, Jan, and Bernie (world's greatest good boy) made our first trip to Hawaii magical! Cottage is beautifully kept, well appointed, has everything you need. We enjoyed that the location was well away from busier areas. We loved getting in the car for a day of fun exploration and then returning to our quiet home for the night. The beds are SO comfy, too. The sunsets from the porch deck are simply gorgeous- a must see. We simply had the most wonderful time. Mahalo, Dennis, Jan, and Bernie!
This home was wonderful. It had everything that we needed and it was great to come back to after a long day out. The hosts provided a variety of fruits to try, which was very nice of them! Would definitely recommend if you want to stay off the grid!
It was wonderful. It’s just a little far from most areas to visit.
Nice cabin and so cool that it’s offgrid - you might not notice unless you’re looking or told. Pretty unique layout and done up very well. Would recommend if you’re looking for a bit of peace and quiet!
Had a wonderful stay in this cottage. The home was well-equipped with everything that was needed for a comfortable stay. Waking up and enjoying the mornings here was my favorite and I was sad to say goodbye!
Peaceful, visually stunning, spacious, brought out a smile every time we returned to the cottage. Everything needed for preparing meals, including some spices and condiments. Everything worked, not the norm for many vacation rentals. Outdoor shower, with hot water!!, very nice when returning from the beach. Excellent beaches w/i short distances, also grocery stores and restaurants. Incredible!!
Accurate listing, great communication, property better than photos, enjoyed meeting and talking with the property owners. We will look for an opportunity to enjoy another stay.
We were totally amazed at the surroundings of this property. A mini farm with lots of fruit trees - and a perfect getaway for privacy, solitude and tropical splendor. The extra added attraction was the eruption of Mauna Loa on the day before we arrived! How exciting! I would definitely recommend this home for a peaceful, private vacation - but be prepared for a little distance from any major shopping areas. It was perfect for our needs - but for those who want to be where the action is, you will be in for a surprise. Still, well worth the peaceful surroundings that we were hoping for.
This was a great place to stay. It was peaceful, clean, and had an ocean view! It was as advertised and wonderful to have morning coffee on the deck looking at the ocean. Space works very well for two people. Easy to contact Dennis and we also loved eating the shared fresh fruit and tomatoes grown there! We liked making toast the old fashioned way on stove top! All the nature sounds at night made us feel more connected to natural Hawaii. There are extras provided like coolers and beach items. Recommend this place for a unique and pleasant stay.
Interesting geodesic dome incorporating solar power. All works seamlessly so you don’t really notice. Great location to explore south portion of island.
Just perfect place: had amenities I was looking for without going overboard. Cute place, very clean and the Sunsets were as expected: all great views. All kinds of birds singing and enjoying the area. Saw even a pair of Pheasants !!! Nights music was the best to let us know we were in the tropics. Our lullaby music were the happy Coqui's. Just what the doctor ordered. Loved our stayed.
Love this cottage and property - slightly rustic with its solar power and composting toilet, but very comfortable with strong internet service for working remotely over VPN. Beautiful and peaceful, it's a bit of a drive to groceries, beaches, restaurants, and other sights, but much nicer for someone who wants privacy and a non-resort experience. Eat breakfast with geckos on the deck, go to sleep to chirping birds and frogs, and enjoy fresh fruit grown by the hosts. Will definitely be back if we can!
Great little cottage to get away from the busyness of more traveled areas in Hawaii. A bit of a drive from Kona but had everything you’d need to live comfortably for a while. Views were simply unmatched and he surrounding area was beautiful and full of lush greenery as well. Local coffee plantations serve local brews which was a real treat. Would recommend bringing/using bug spray since there were quite a few mosquitoes. But overall a very excellent place to stay! Mahalo.
This was such an interesting house with the dome! It was super clean, very well stocked and appointed with everything I needed and more, and the location was beautiful and private and styrene. It was exactly what I needed!
Overall things were very good at the property. It was quiet and quite comfortable. We both had to do some distanced work, and were originally worried about connectivity, but there were absolutely no problems with it. The owner also suggested a nearby, little used beach that ended up being better than the bigger public ones we visited, especially when about 2 dozen dolphins came and hung out! The refridgerator is tiny, and since the property is a bit of way from stores that made shopping for an extended stay more of a challenge. Also, some of the reference materials on-site (especially about hiking) are very outdated. But overall, I'd definitely recommend this property over a hotel!
