It was a cozy cottage and I was happily surprised upon my arrival. Directly across the street was a hidden stairwell that took you near the ocean for an incredible view. Up the street a couple hundred feet I found access to a black sand beach that was incredible. I will forewarn you that some of the residents are nudists.

"Ruhig, gemütlich, Blick aufs Meer"

9.0

Größe, Nähe zum Meer (sehr starker Wellengang, für Familien nicht geeignet), Entfernung zum nächsten Ort (Pahoa halbe Stunde) gut vertretbar. Wer Ruhe bevorzugt, ist gut aufgehoben.

Alles okay. Für Strandurlauber weniger geeignet.

"Superb"

9.0

Amazing location if you want to be in a beautiful natural and less crowded area, beach is right in front of the property and property facilities are great.

If anything, only to comment that access to the beach around is more challenging with travelling with 1.5 year old. Still a lot of other nice beaches in the are that can be visited in a paradise location of the island. Higly recommended

"Disappointing"

4.0

Great location, and a cute little cottage

The sofa bed should not be considered a viable sleeping option AT ALL. We booked for four which was listed as an option, but the sofa bed was absolutely horrible. We ended up having a better night sleep by putting the cushions from the couch on the floor. If you were staying here as just two people this place would be great! Or if the sofa bed got a SERIOUS upgrade, either that or a blow up mattress from Walmart or something
