Convenient & gorgeous!

Kim’s Cottage and Jim’s welcome were both awesome, two of us stayed for three nights and it was exactly as described and expected. The private patio was wonderful and it made for easy living. We did have some unwelcome encounters with mosquitos, but that was expected due to the location of the property and the season. We normally stay in Hawi and the location was incredibly convenient for us to explore the northeastern side of the island. Once welcomed by Jim, where he gave us an overview of the cottage and the property, we were afforded incredible privacy throughout our stay. It was just perfect, exactly what we needed :)

Perfection!

What a fabulous find! The cottage is one large, very well stocked, room with two very comfortable beds. The sink and microwave are inside, while the fridge and hot plate are on the porch.The porch has a glassed in corner with a table and chairs where we enjoyed our meals. The views from the porch and the patio are AMAZING!! The cottage was the perfect homebase for exploring the area, and coming back to this quiet, beautiful spot was such a treat. Jim was a welcoming and helpful host. We loved it and will definitely return!
