Photos and Description of the Captain Cook vacation cottage rental Cottage-Studio w/King bed & Queen futon + addtl.BR, 1 Bath (Sleeps 1-5))

Makalani (Heavenly View) Cottage is a delightfully romantic cottage surrounded by a tropical garden in South Kona's coffee-belt with a breathtaking panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean. For the adventurous traveler seeking authentic Hawaiian beauty and serenity, you can spend your whole vacation here gazing out over the endless ocean and its incredible sunsets. In the winter, you can spot whales breaching from your outdoor lanai or listen to them singing at night. Awaken to the music of colorful birdsong from papaya, mango and banana trees. With a perfect year-round climate, perched at 1200 ft. above the sea on the side of Mauna Loa Volcano, Makalani Oceanview Cottage is authentic Hawai'i unspoiled by crowds and resorts. A great location that gives you many options for experiencing The Big Island's natural diversity. From your cottage you are just a 4-minute drive to the closest beach and 15-minutes to Ho'okena Beach State Park for sunbathing and swimming with dolphins.

Love this place!

Mark & Ebear Denver CO
Review Submitted: August 5, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
Makalani Cottage is awesome! Harry was outstanding from the first email I sent asking questions to our final good bye afterwords. Traveling so far from home and the uncertainty of what you will find when you get there was taken out of the equation as Harry guided us the whole way. Everything he said was truthful and spot on. To me, this is a rare and a truly helpful quality you don't find often in vacation rental properties (owners wishing to just book it, lipstick on a pig). There is no "pig" (other than the cute wild ones scurrying around the property from time to time) and no lipstick...it is blessed and for real! Harry wants you to enjoy your special time in this magical place and will shoot straight with you to insure you will be happy. You will find all the comforts of modern living coupled with just the right amount of green living. Rain water showers are the best! The beaches Harry shared (we went to every one of them) exceeded all expectations (hike to the green beach...wow!). Our second leg of the trip was at a resort (Hilton) and I will tell you, our best memories are Makalani and stomping around the south island enjoying the local flavor and sites. We will return, save money on the resort and stay longer at Makalani!!

Highly recommended,

Mark and Elizabeth

Makalani oceanview end of April/early May 2009

Betsy & Chris Ocean Beach, CA
Review Submitted: July 25, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We stayed at the bungalow for our "honeymoon" after getting married & spending a week on Kaua'i. Harry the owner was very polite, conscientious and friendly, yet also allowed us our privacy. Use his directions & cues to find the place, as it is not easy to spot the first time you drive there.
Positives: quiet, tastefully decorated, full kitchen comes fully loaded w/tons a spices and a few other cooking essentials. BBQ grill is easy to use. Clean & well kept. Fresh fruit & flowers. Friendly cat. Peaceful and "away from it all". We had been to Captain Cook before and really liked it.
Surprises: the driveway is grassy - we weren't sure if our little economy size rental car would make it up & down the grassy steep hill, but it did. Having bathroom in seperate building required some coordination to get to, in the middle of the night, after a few mai tais! Toilet is earth friendly, yes, but not something we were accustomed to. Eventually we got used to it, but were happy to return to our plumbing at home too!! The bungalow is in South Captain Cook - a great location for peace & quiet. If you are looking to make regular trips into Kona, it's a bit of a drive. (But worth it for the seclusion, in our opinion!)
We would stay here again.

Makalani Cottage

Review Submitted: July 21, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
My husband & I spent 10 sweet days of our honeymoon at Makalani Cottage and we loved it. Our host, Harry, was so hospitable and helpful with sharing all his "secret beaches" and favorite places. We especially liked snorkeling at "2-step", just south of the City of Refuge. The cottage is beautiful & comfortable, our little home away from home. We made breakfast & sometimes prepared our picnic lunch at the cottage, and enjoyed some great restaurants at nite. Loved watching the ocean view and the wild goats & pigs below the ridge ,in the morning as we sat on our deck sipping local Kona coffee. We are already planning to return next Spring!

Harry's cottage is a tota delight. It is quiet, beautifully appointed with all the amenities necessary. He is a marvelous generous host. His information about the island proved faultless- the spots he recommended to us were all incredible. The view of the stars at night from the cottage took my breath away and I had to move my chair out and partake- saw the galaxy in a new way. The comfort and beauty of the place were incredible. Thanks again

Review Submitted: July 16, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2008
from the first second on we have been avid and felt home immediately!
Harry - the owner and neighbour - let us feel welcome from the moment we stepped in and he had brilliant tips where to go (insider knowledge from a local - what do you need more?!)
The style of the bungalow and the whole parcel (with lots and lots of different fruit trees - you may harvest them!) let you feel the spirit of Hawaii (dont forget to enjoy the litte outsidehouse)
and not least youre living there with contemporary technoligy - on th one side a shower with rainwater, toilet is going to become compost - GO GREEN, and on the other hand a modern kitchen, hudge fridge and everything else you need to feel good!
once we will be back......
