About this property

GE-186-363-6992-01 TAT186-363-6992-01This colorful 2 bedroom 2 bath home is Hosted from the front cottage. Close to all the fun Puna has to offer. The quiet setting has privacy with room for family & friends. Let the sound of the waves rock you to sleep. Maybe even hear the whales. Gardenias fill the garden with a wonderful aroma. Colorful tropical plants sway in the breeze, creating a delightful view from the fully screened lanai. The house is set up to sleep two couples with new queen size beds that connect by the lanai. Both rooms exactly the same except color schemes. All linens are new and are the appropriate weight for the climate for a comfortable stay.The house is super cute in a simple way .The full kitchen allows for home cooked meals.
Take your coffee and morning walk to the cliffs or Kahakai Park with lots of spots for fishing or watching the waves break.
Borrow the snorkel gear and visit Kapoho for the best snorkeling on the island.
Enjoy the restaurants in Pahoa. We had the best meals at Nings and Kaleos. Truly delicious. There really is something for every taste and budget. THE FARMERS MARKETS are amazing. Wednesdays is Hilo or Uncle Roberts in Kalapana. Saturday Hilo. Sunday Maku'u on the road to Hilo. Plus Keauu has one open everyday! There is so much to enjoy you'll have to come back many times to discover it all!

Fabulous hideaway that has everything

Cool, quiet location not far from the ocean. If you are looking for a place that is away from the noise and rat race this is it. Sue and Brad go the extra mile for you , we had fresh flowers when we arrived. A quick check in with us to see if we were ok and it was all just so lovely and welcoming

Lush garden holiday house

This is a lovely little house in a wonderful garden with avocado and coconut trees. Lots of birds and the frogs sing a chorus all night. The house was spotlessly clean. A few things weren’t working but it wasn’t important. Communication with the owners was good - it was a pity we never met them. Thanks for a great stay. We really enjoyed ourselves!

Cute tropical cottage.

Rustic cottage, tropical setting. Just under an hour to volcano national park and close to restaurants in Pahoa. Overall very nice stay, but may want to close the windows at night and run the fan or the roosters will wake you very early. Also the lock box did not work so never had a key to lock/unlock property.

Definitely a sweet retreat!

This little cottage, named Sweet Retreat by the owner, was a charming home base for our time on the Big Island. We enjoyed everything about the location. We could hear the waves crashing on the shore from the lovely screened porch. We could walk to the beach in a few minutes time and watch for whales. We could drive in to the village for a delicious meal at one of several good restaurants in a short time. And we were able to travel to Vocano National Park, black and green sand beaches and Southpoint all from Sweet Retreat.

I Love the warm water and the warm people, Nothing like Island time to revive the senses and spirit It drew me back over and over. The fluid colors demand the artist to paint and the overworked relax.
