About this property

Relaxing home away from home- honeymoon friendly

The view of the ocean and coastal pasture makes guests exclaim "wow" as they enter the dutch doors of this cozy cottage.

This is a place to relax. You can watch the whales play and hear them sing at night. The cows lazily graze through the pasture below with the Big Island of Hawaii off in the distance. Sunrises and sunsets offer stunning colors across the sky. You can also appreciate the views from the comfort of your bed. We have stocked the cottage with all of the amenities you will need to make you feel right at home.

For the more adventurous, there are hikes, beaches, and waterfalls nearby. Haleakala National Park (7 Sacred Pools) is located 4 miles south of the cottage and Hamoa Beach is 3.5 miles north. A small freshwater pond is only 1/4 mile down the road.

Perfect stay near Hana

We had a great time staying here. I really loved seeing the cows graze. This was the perfect location for us to rest after driving the road to Hana and then start our morning hikes before the crowds rolled in.

Idyllic Hana Cabin

Beautiful little cabin just off the road only 5 miles from Hana and 5 miles from the Kipahulu part of the national park. Best ocean view, saw sunrise, sunsets and several rainbows. Peaceful except for occasional traffic noise.

A Wonderful Week in Hana

The unobstructed panoramic view of the ocean from the deck was enjoyed during breakfast, lunch and dinner and also just lounging or observing the cows grazing close by. The kitchen was highly functional as was the smaller bathroom with a larger waterfall shower. Parking right outside the front door allowed convenient loading and unloading for many beach trips and visits to the National Park just a few miles away.

About the host

Hosted by Michelle Horen

Host profile image
My name is Michelle and I manage this heavenly cottage for an old family friend, Chuck. This cottage is a hidden gem which I hope you get to experience for yourself! I enjoy interacting with guests of the cottage. Their gratitude is a constant reminder of how lucky we are to call this place home.

Why they chose this property

Many of our guests return annually. They all say the photos don't do the place justice. Everyone declares the view spectacular. There are 70 acres of government preserve between the cottage and the shore. Even so, when the whales are here (Dec-Apr), you can hear them splash. Cattle and a few horses abound in the preserve, and you can watch their calf's frolic. A thoroughly restful place. The serene views and private nature of the cottage offer a sanctuary of kinds for guests.

What makes this property unique

Koali Ranch Cottage started out as a vacant lot set aside for a school house. In 1955, the Territory of Hawaii decided that it did not need a school there and auctioned it. Chuck's parents were successful bidders. The Territory insisted that the house be erected within a year. The cottage was designed by local architect John Tatum, working with island famous Val Ossipoff.
