    We enjoyed our stay. Scott and Caroline are delightful hosts. We really enjoyed their chickens visiting us. The hot tub was relaxing after a day of exploring.

    The cabin was perfect, away from the busy tourist scene in town, quiet and peaceful, yet easy access to everything. The cabin is rustic but had everything we needed. There were birds and frogs to listen to and the hot tub was really nice in the cool evenings. There was a cooler and ice packs in the freezer that we used every day, as well as beach chairs, umbrella, etc. It was a perfect stay and we would definitely stay there again.

    Communication with the host was great and the check-in was easy. The cabin is located in a quiet zone not too far from Kona, which is excellent. The cabin was very clean with thoughtful touches. We did find that there was limited space for clothing, and while the kitchen was well stocked with appliances etc there wasn’t really much space to put food/groceries aside from the fridge. There are dogs on the property which were ok but could be intimidating to someone nervous around dogs. Overall, we had a very enjoyable stay.

    The Kaloko mountain cabin was the Hawaiian vacation we’ve been dreaming about. Walking distance from Mountain Thunder coffee plantation and the Kona Cloud Forest Sanctuary. Caroline and Scott are warm, welcoming hosts. This was our first trip to the Big Island, but it won’t be our last!

    Adorable little cabin in the hills of Kona. A great place to cool down after a hot day in town. You feel like you are in your own private jungle. The hot tub was so relaxing after a day of frolicking in the volcano. We are aleady planning a return trip.

    Caroline is the perfect host! Everything clean, cozy and comfortable. Up in the hills, the evenings were cool, but we had layers of blankets and even an electric blanket and space-heater. We had a fully stocked kitchen, beach towels, and the hot tube was at the perfect temperature! We would definitely stay here again!

    Didn’t want to leave. Everything about the home was perfect! We loved it. The cooler mountain location, the quietness, the remote location it was all wonderful. Can’t wait to go back. All the amenities were perfect. Beach chairs, umbrellas, cooler everything you would need to enjoy the beach and traveling around the island.

    Staying at Carson's Kaloko Mountain Cabin was such a relaxing and unique experience! The cabin is tucked away in this beautiful cloud forest above Kona, and it feels like a total escape from the busy world. It had everything we needed—fully stocked kitchen, fast Wi-Fi, and the best part: the hot tub surrounded by lush greenery. Waking up to the sound of birds and occasionally spotting some chickens or sheep wandering around was such a treat. The cooler mountain air was super refreshing compared to the heat down by the beaches, and we spent so much time just hanging out on the porch enjoying the peaceful vibe. Even though it feels secluded, it’s only a short drive to Kona town and the beaches, so it’s super easy to get around. The hosts, Caroline and Scott, were awesome—super friendly and quick to help with anything we needed. We loved coming back to the cabin after a day of exploring and just chilling in the hot tub or cozying up inside. It’s such a special spot, and we’d absolutely stay there again. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a chill, off-the-beaten-path getaway!
