Living & Dining
The moment you enter, island-inspired artwork, vaulted ceilings, and custom shelving set a welcoming tone. Large windows frame the Pacific just beyond, giving the living room a naturally bright and breezy feel. Settle into the comfortable seating, enjoy your favorite show on the smart TV, or open the doors to let the sound of the surf become the soundtrack of your stay.
Indoor dining flows easily to the lanai, where alfresco meals unfold against wave-splashed rocks and endless horizon views.
Chef-Ready Kitchen
Fully remodeled with granite countertops, warm wood cabinetry, and full-size appliances, the kitchen offers everything you need for effortless vacation cooking. Brew fresh Kona coffee, prepare island-style breakfasts, or plate a sunset dinner to enjoy outdoors. With ample storage, cookware, and small appliances, the space is as functional as it is inviting.
Outdoor Oasis
The oversized lanai is where The Cottage truly shines. Multiple seating zones invite you to dine, lounge, or unwind in shaded comfort while waves crash just below. Watch dolphins and seasonal whales offshore, sunbathe beside the ocean, or simply settle in for a nightly show as the sky melts into vibrant hues. A private yard adds additional space to relax, surrounded by tropical plantings.

Summary: The Cottage was a wonderful respite for our trip. As others have said, there were some gnats that were present in the bathrooms and on the outside of the house (that swarmed at night), but we found that if we left the light on inside, the gnats swarmed to the window and left us alone on the deck. And, it is after all a tropical environment, so while we saw the occasional cockroach outside, there were none inside!When we arrived, our code didn't work, but the person on the other side of the emergency line helped us out since there was a photo shoot before we arrived.We loved the bathroom, and the kitchen was well equipped. We could have used some ziploc baggies to store food or other things that we couldn't finish eating, but we found most of what we needed. The A/C units (2) were perfect for the size of the house, and it was great to have a washer and dryer there. Bring your own dryer sheets if you want; while there were laundry pods (thank you!!) there were no dryer sheets. The views were one-in-a-million. The waves crashing on the lava rocks below were loud, but lovely. The yellow tangs greeted us each day out off the deck as they were hanging out in the reef beyond the deck. There were lots of surfers each morning, so if you like to sleep with the window curtains open, beware. I only wish that this had another bedroom with bunk beds or twin beds so that our kids could enjoy this house! We will definitely come back to this in the future - we had a great time!
