I was having work done on my home, so we stayed here for two weeks of fun! It was tranquil, clean, comfortable. A nice bathtub with plenty of toiletries. You may not see it in the pics, but they provide all the kitchen appliances/flatware you might need. Lots of lush greenery right up against the lava rock fields right up against the ocean. Plenty to explore. The WiFi was awesome. We were able to run both our VR headsets at the same time, I was able to work from home when I needed to, did some Xbox gaming (Brought our own electronics). Very private - from check in to check out. Laundry room is right outside the kitchen door, conveniently. The air conditioning is really, really, really good. All the furniture is very sturdy! Lots of fun beach stuff provided too (pool noodles, chairs, sun hat, etc.). I am packing now & happy to go home, but this was just perfect. ##### Napela N.

Nov 22, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Sweetest Cottage by the Sea Dear Sweetest Cottage by the Sea, You were exactly what I needed. Prior to my stay, I was feeling overworked and burnt out on life. I was really hoping for a healing space that was not only lovely and peaceful, but also had the comforts of home. You were all that and more. I felt safe, at peace, and the loving mana (energy) of your sweet space. I was able to catch up on some much needed rest. I also found solace and renewed perspective on my daily walks on the lava fields along the ocean in your backyard. I also loved exploring the area that runs along the coast that you sit upon. I felt rejuvenated and ready to tackle the world upon leaving. I am so grateful that you were my oasis for a week. Mahalo for your tranquil, nurturing embrace. I will be back. ##### Donna A. Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Alexzandra Nov 2, 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Disliked: Cleanliness This was a beautiful beach cottage. Very quiet and private area. I think the directions given by the owners is very confusing when your coming in at night and you are not a local. The GPS cordidantes from the owner are not true to where the property is. There are not any street lights to help you either. The private drive into the neighborhood is a dirt road that looks like someone's private drive way. We found hairs around the house and in the shower. The induction stovetop that was provided- did not work (also doesn't actually fit anywhere to cook with it) We were highly inconvenienced to drive to the nearest walmart 45 minutes away early in the morning to feed our child. There is nothing close to this property as far as food and groceries go. The property itself is abundant with wildlife, Lava and the beach but there isn't a good swim beach near this location. It was a nice put together property. They provided 2 shower towels when we had 3 guests. I would recommend to check appliances before new guests arrive. I bought a cooking appliance and obviously couldn't take it back on my travels. I wouldn't stay here again just due to how far everything is from this location and being inconvenienced. But if you're looking to stay at the cottage and not go to the beach much or exploring- this is your place. The nearest town Hilo- is dirty and the water is not in good condition ##### Alexzandra Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### becky U.

Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathryn C. Mar 21, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely space on the lava This is a lovely place to stay! Nice layout, well put together, and just a really lovely and calming space. There is another house on the property but it's pretty private - just don't walk into the living room/kitchen naked (or close the curtains before you do!) Not-so-connected to the rest of the island since many of the connecting roads were blocked by lava in previous years' eruptions. This is a bug or a feature depending on what you're looking for. We very much enjoyed exploring the lava and the Red Road, and venturing up to Hilo and Volcano for further adventures. The frogs are loud at night but I found it soothing. My partner needed earplugs and was fine. There was also a wind storm and afterwards the frog chorus diminished A LOT. I felt bad for the possibly-squished frogs, but clearly the sound level can vary quite a bit. The place was a little hard to find at night, I'd been following instructions on the app and they were thorough but telephone poles were hard to see in the dark. However I later realized Rachaelle had also attached GPS coordinates to a message so that's totally my fault. The combination of the two should be more than enough to find your way there. Also go get an acai bowl at the smoothie shack 10 minutes walk down the road, they're so good! ##### Kathryn C. Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mike F.

An experience hard to replicate. The only remarks are the sofa bed in the living room- it would be nice if it was more comfortable- and the kitchen doesn’t have a stove top… otherwise great rental. ##### Sabina B.

We stayed here for a couple nights in May. There's an incredible lava field out back behind the property, so if scrambling over a recent lava flow sounds like fun to you, this is a great place to stay. The lava ends in a short cliff overlooking the ocean, so it's not possible (or at least, not safe) to get in the water from here, but there is a beach a couple miles down the coast. The bedroom has a portable A/C unit, which was a nice touch and definitely helped us sleep at night. Living area is small, but the patio is also a good place for hanging out. The unit is a small cottage on the property of a larger house, so if the larger house is occupied, you'll have pretty close neighbors. That didn't bother us, though. For us, staying on the lava field was really fun and one of the highlights of our trip to the Big Island. ##### Andrew W.
