Summary: The Zen Cottage was like a step back to old Hawaii. Wonderfully located on the beach. While being old the house and the grounds were well kept up and clean. No complaints at all. It would be nice if the hedge towards the beach were lowered to the top of the lava wall to open the view while sitting or lounging.

Summary: The Zen cottage has great outdoor spaces and access to a beautiful little beach. The rooms are airy and two of them overlook the ocean and a very pretty yard. The location is near good restaurants and shopping. Many good excursions can be easily made from there.

Summary: The place was very quiet and peaceful. No air-conditioning, but with the constant ocean breeze it felt great. We had our 18 month old and they loved the little beach pretty much in the back yard. The adults could do some snorkeling in the same area. We did most of our relaxing and eating outside in the back lenai. The property manager, Lopaka, was a lot of information and checked up to make sure we had any further questions or needed any help. I would book the place again if we go back.

Summary: This place was in a beautiful setting. Loved hearing the ocean waves at night. However, you must be comfortable with having all windows and doors open at night. No AC. There are screens and the property is gated at the road, but the “beach” behind the property is public. The house itself could use some updates. Baseboards were missing. The bathrooms were dated and stained. The tops of the roller shades downstairs were very dirty. The washer and dryer units are outside and rusted. There were no chairs available to take to the beach. Overall, for the price, I think I would look elsewhere if we were back in the area.

Summary: Wonderful place to stay. The kids loved the direct access to the beach and small lagoon for snorkeling.
Robert B. Jun 22, 2023 01:32:09 PM
Summary: A beautiful classic Kona Home in a beachfront setting. Perfect for relaxing and enjoying tha Aloha of Kona. And a great location for enjoying restaurants and shopping and the other wonders of the Big Island.

Summary: The Zen House is part of an old sugar plantation. The house is old and is decorated with antiques but we found it charming. The property manager/maintenance guy and his wife live in another house on the property. He was super friendly and my husband enjoyed talking to him. The beach is literally steps from back porch! Amazing views and close to shopping and all the action! Gated so we felt safe. The beaches in hawaii are public and there are not a lot of Sandy beaches in this area so “our” little beach had people on it pretty much all the time. This was awkward at times because it is just steps from our patio…but I mean I’m not complaining because there aren’t many homes with access like this to a Sandy beach! The owner could definitely upgrade the “extras” have an extra roll of paper towels, nicer hand soap, beach towels, beach chairs, better blow dryers, a little cooler for you to use etc. these little touches would make it more luxurious and would help balance out what the price per day is to stay. Overall adorable little house with unbelievable views and location! If we came back to the Big Island I would stay again.
Kelly A. May 7, 2023 07:12:48 AM
Summary: Stunning, primitive the grounds and ocean view and breeze and access were everything. We loved the property manager, he was amazing! Can’t wait to come back.
Debbie A. May 6, 2023 07:41:46 AM
Summary: Beautiful little beach house. Lopaka the prop Manager was awesome, friendly and filled with Aloha!
Charlene B. Feb 6, 2023 02:34:00 PM
Summary: This listing is amazing! I wish we could have stayed longer. The home was very clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed. Lopeka was a wealth of knowledge and very helpful. The views and sunsets were incredible. I would definitely stay here again when we visit the Big Island.
