About this cottage rental

On the Kona side, safe and away from the volcanic activity, the Cottage awaits you.

The perfect, peaceful getaway for those on a honeymoon or looking for a relaxing, romantic experience. This warm, welcoming, newly-built and finely crafted studio cottage provides modern comfort while retaining the spirit of old Hawaii. This mountain paradise is surrounded by native trees and a tropical garden. The Cottage at Ohia Place is situated in North Kona, at a cool 1600' elevation on Mount Hualala'i in Kaloko Mauka.

The cottage is in close proximity to Kailua Kona village, shopping, restaurants, beaches, activities, the harbor, hiking trails and upcountry golf courses. The airport is 15 minutes away. Your host, Gale, lives on the 1.5 acres shared with the Cottage.

The accommodation features open beam wood ceilings, ohia hardwood floors, mahogany and granite kitchen, brand-new queen -sized bed (with a Memory Foam topper), large slate shower, fully equipped kitchen and a lovely lanai that enhances the inside/outside lifestyle of Hawaii.

The cottage is 720 sq feet under roof, including the lanai.

Your host will provide you with details about the many island activities, tours, sight-seeing, beaches and cultural experiences as well as shopping and restaurants, all within an easy driving distance from your home.

Born and raised in Kona, the host's father was one of the founders of the sports fishing business in Kona in the early 50s; she and her family remain closely involved with the fishing community. She has spent her professional life welcoming guests and connecting them to the rich traditions of the islands. We love the island of Hawaii: the vastness, the colorful and unique local customs, the sunshine and sunsets of the Kona Coast, and the hunting and fishing traditions of the Big Island.

A vintage picnic basket is available for your pleasure. If you're headed out to explore the island. You are welcome to use a cold bag for shopping, cooler, beach chairs and towels.

This is a place you will call home... will want to remember... and will return to.

Everything about this cottage was perfect. Gale greeted us and walked us through the property at check in. She was also willing to answer questions about the island and sites throughout our trip. The cottage was great. It had everything we needed (kitchen, bathroom, and beach gear). Mornings and evenings outside enjoying the view were perfect. I can’t wait to come back and stay here! Thank you, Gale!

This was a trip we will never forget, and truly showed how above and beyond Gale goes for her guests. Stay here and you will have a luxury resort-level vacation all to yourselves. The cottage, the grounds, the service, the privacy, the location - all of it. It's simply outstanding. During our stay my partner needed unplanned surgery and I then needed to travel back to CA for 2 of our days there. Not the tropical getaway either of us expected, but it ended up being the most beautiful place to recover and heal, and we left with such a deep appreciation for the cottage and for Gale. She made sure my partner was ok while I was gone, and I never could have made the week work without that. She is an incredible person, as well as someone with impeccable taste in how she has designed and maintained the cottage. It's our favorite VRBO we've ever stayed in, and we've been active customers since the late 90s. Seriously, you will be surrounded by beauty. It's truly spectacular, and Gale is there if you need her, and you'll never know she's there if you don't. It doesn't get any better than that!

Super calm, beautiful chateau! The weather was cool and rainy so the evenings after beach play were comfortable. It was heavenly on the front porch listening to the birds, bugs and frogs in the mornings and evenings. Perfect getaway for 2

My wife and I have stayed in many different vacation rentals all around the world and this is one of the best!!! This hillside cottage is away from the bustle of Kailua-Kona but only a 5-to-10-minute drive from shopping, coffee and the Airport. We heard nor saw traffic, day or night, but you will hear plenty of nature. The cottage itself is immaculate, well maintained and has all the required comfort conveniences, coffee makers, microwave, awesome toaster oven, gas cooktop and all dishes and utensils to match. High speed internet is awesome, and the bed is extremely comfortable. Gale is a great host, met us late, worked with our departure time and gave us great advice on where to go and what to see. I highly recommend this as one of the best rentals for 2 on the Big Island!!!

Our stay at this AMAZING guest house was our best VRBO experience ever! When we arrived at the property, Gale, our host, met us and showed us around the property. More than that, Gale offered her vast knowledge of the Big Island like a personal concierge. She took the time to find out what we wanted to do during our one week stay and gave us excellent suggestions for restaurants, sights to see and things to do. The guesthouse is private, nicely appointed and VERY comfortable. The house has outstanding amenities and the area where it is located is absolutely lovely. If the house is available, book it. You won’t regret it!
