Cute little property with just about everything you need for a comfortable stay! (A rice cooker might be a nice addition!) There’s a kitchenette with basic cookware and spices, a propane grill out back and washer too!

Right across the road from the ocean and a nice little black sand beach. A neat little quiet cottage that is off the beaten path. Was comfortable for a couple. Attending the Wednesday night gathering at Uncle Robert’s Awa Bar was fun with a...

Company info

Andre and I have worked in the medical field for years and began our vacation rental business about 4 years ago. We love the remote but beautiful Hawaiian community we live in and can't think of a better place to live.

Property info

This is 1 of 3 cottages on the property, which is located in a quiet coastal community named Kehena Beach. It is across the street from Kehena Black Sand Beach, which is down a trail which most people navigate quite well. This is spacious, clean & cozy cottage located in a dryer part of Hawaii when compared to Hilo, Leilani, or downtown Pahoa. If you are trying to limit your exposure to rain, this is the place. It has 1 bedroom w/ queen bed and a nice futon in the living room. It has a 'food prep' area w/ full sized fridge, plates, utensils and coffee maker - but no MW or stove. It has one of the very best ocean views in the entire area where you can hear the waves crashing on the cliffs across the street. It is a located in a remote setting but there are local markets, farmers markets, café and bar just 1-3 miles away. If you want to escape to paradise, you have found it. We provide information on the refrigerator on how to get to local stores, trails, beach access, and other sites in the area, which makes it easy for you to navigate. You will love the Dolphin Cottage and will want to return as we are always upgrading our property to improve our customers experience.

Neighborhood info

Kehena Beach (bathing suit optional) is across the street. The cottage is 13 miles from the largest town called 'Pahoa'. Many people think that Pahoa is a coastal community but it isn't. If you want to be by the ocean - this is it. We have a store, Uncles Awa bar, café at the end of our street...3.2 miles away.
