The Red Cottage and Hawaiian Pond Garden Paradise!

It was such a wonderful experience, the room is designed to make you feel like you are sleeping in a tropical forest surrounded by nature. Patrick is a great host with plenty of tips on where to go and how to get around. Would definitely go back. As to be expected in that kind of setting, make sure to bring a mosquito repellent and ear plugs

Staying in The Red Cottage was like stepping back in time to the Hawaii of yesteryear. The record player and albums from multiple decades were such a nice touch, and we played different records during our stay. Even the artwork was reminiscent of days gone by which was so special and made us smile. The host greeted us and left a lovely personalized note and welcome gifts, which were much appreciated. A real treat was the claw-footed bathtub, and the host had all sorts of bath accessories available. It was so relaxing!

After spending a day exploring, we returned to a tight parking situation, however we made it work.

I loved the rural concept of the property. The open shower layout in the bathroom with a great vintage tub. There is also an outdoor shower next to a lily pond if you need to rinse off after a day out and about. This property is rural down a gravel road. If you like adventure, this is the place. I liked it. The host is very friendly and a cool guy.

while a little out of the way, the setting was great and you could access site seeing locations with a bit of a drive. The cottage was quaint and beautifully set up. It had an outside kitchen (well sheltered) so took some time to get used to. The host was very friendly and offered lots of great ideas and wealth of information. If we had any questions, or concerns (about how things worked etc) he was quick to respond. I loved the chickens roaming the yard. I would definitely come again.

This is the best place and host ever

n/a

- The host makes everything in his hand to make your stay comfortable and convenient - The apartment is equipped with anything you may need (kitchen, bathroom, etc...) - Bed was just so comfortable!!!

- The location is a bit isolated, with a good driving distance from any convenience stores or supermarkets - Very challenging to get any good signal either from your network provider or property wifi. If you need a reliable connection during your stay, this is probably not the best place - This is not a farm...but it is a country-side like property. Hence, be prepared to share your space with dogs, cats, crocks or crickets (and their noises)

It was very clean and really gave you the sense of the island. Absolutely loved, feeding the chickens babies. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone. Seeking a relaxing getaway.

There was a record player with old Hawaiian vinyl records that added to the mood, and a gorgeous bathroom that we really appreciated after camping. Even the overhead fan was hand carved to suit the Hawaiian castaway oasis aesthetic. Gilligans Island, eat your heart out. Now you can feel like you have been shipwrecked on a deserted island but with all the luxuries! The open air kitchen was spotlessly clean, with all the amenities and a morning visit by a friendly hen who left us a fresh egg - look under the stove, near the microwave for a breakfast egg delivery!

Nothing at all. Totally fab! We got lost on the night of our arrival (we came late in the evening) but the owner was very helpful. Use Google Maps instead of Apple Maps, which takes you too far down the road.

A home is in paradise and a place can totally relax. Super like the outdoor kitchen and dinette – a peaceful place surrounded by nature sounds that can spend all day, and there always had little visitors came by. Patrick is a very friendly and thoughtful host, he also gave good advice about the local highlights. Everything made my stay so enjoyable.

Host is very helpful and knowledgeable of things to do in the area. I think the value is quite good. Location is prime if you like outdoorsy activies.

Be mindful that there are roosters on the property/in the neighborhood (If you don't like being woken up at dawn every morning). Kitchen facilities are on an outdoor poarch if that isn't clear from the photos. Neither were an issue for me, just be aware.
