We couldn't have been happier with our stay at Hale Kea. Annette was a wonderful host, and absolutely everything we need was in this lovely one-BR cottage. Great kitchen and dining area, living room, very warm and charming well-decorated bedroom, very clean throughout. So many thoughtful touches, all the kitchen and bath supplies we could ever want. Just as advertised. Nice safe neighborhood for scenic evening strolls. Check-in process and all communications made it so easy. We just loved our stay and would love to return.

It was cozy yet well equipped for a cottage of its size and a bit of old Hawaiian charm. Everything was very clean, and the host generous and accommodating. We have a lovely stay.

The Big Island's perfect vacation cottage
The Big Island's perfect vacation cottage
This cottage was a wonderful home to explore the Big Island. So comfortable and with a great location - tucked away in a quiet residential neighborhood - Annette has thought of ALL the details that one could wish for! Every room is very clean, well-appointed and kept and tastefully decorated. Even the kitchen is stocked with every spice and better-equipped than my own. My husband and I were super impressed with Hale Kea Cottage and thank you Annette and Pally for all the info and sharing your Paradise with us! Ruth and Martin Mountain View, Ca.

Comfortable stay at Hale Kea Cottage
Comfortable stay at Hale Kea Cottage
This was the forth time we came to Big Island. Of the different cottages we rented, Hale Kea was the most comfortable and best equipped one. Strictly nothing was missing. We particularly appreciated the beautiful front deck where perfect privacy is offered by the surrounding tropical vegetation. Taking meals here was just great.

Wonderful Hale Kea Cottage
Wonderful Hale Kea Cottage
We come to Hawaii every year. And we always stay at beautiful Hale Kea Cottage. We could write a zillion wonderful things about this cottage. Unfortunately there is not enough space here. So we’ll put our praise in just one sentence: We have made Hale Kea our “second home”. We think that there is no nicer thing you could say about a vacation rental. Usually we come to Hawaii during the winter to escape the harsh German weather. This time we arrived in July and stayed until mid-August. We were surprised about Hawaii’s sweetness in the summer: the sky always blue, almost no wind, low waves good for calm swimming. The Big Island is always in the “on-season”.

The best vacation ever. The cottage was perfect and the owner made finding the best beaches, shopping and restaurants easy. Very organized and well stocked, everything that you could possibly need was to enjoy a quiet, romantic holiday. We want to go back again. Stress free and the most relaxed way to experience the Big Island.
