This rental was absolutely the perfect way to start out our Hawaii vacation. The gardens outside were absolutely beautiful and the view of the ocean couldn't be beat! We wish we had more time there to relax on top of all tourist stuff we did. The room was comfortable and matched the listing exactly.There is a short, steep hill that you need to climb to get to the unit (although you probably could have walked around the other house to avoid the hill) so be aware of you have mobility issues...just an FYI...not a complaint.We highly recommend this rental!! ##### Joshua J.

Jun 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Island Stay with Ocean Breeze and Warm Hospitality Kim and James’s cottage was the perfect home base for exploring Big Island’s trails and beaches. Waking up to breakfast with an ocean view and the Pacific breeze was a highlight. The place was spotless, nearly insect-free, and stayed cool enough without AC. It’s ideal for two or three people. The kitchen is simple but has everything you need to cook your own meals, and there are plenty of nearby spots with great local food. James welcomed us personally and was always ready to help, which made us feel truly cared for. Kim’s artwork in the house adds a lovely personal touch. Thank you both for sharing your beautiful place. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8664df07-80c1-44ee-b4e8-5ac2b0ea8c78-1748824469129.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ddee33ed-e46c-4b30-acd1-d0ea0b9575ad-1748824467395.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d92e33d8-d3b2-47f5-b9da-5fc6fc40aa24-1748824469389.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Piotr P.
