Connie was very organized and welcoming. Her charming little cottage really is peaceful and tucked into a lush forest. The back room (kitchen/living room) is larger than we expected, and was a perfect carpeted space for our son to crawl around on.

The location is convenient for exploring the South Point area. It's just a few minutes off the highway near South Point Road (to Green Sands beach). We stayed three nights and had two full days - one for each of Green Sands and Black Sand beaches, plus a bit of exploring. This itinerary worked out great.

Just a heads up that this place is off the grid. But we had enough power and hot water for what we wanted - even to watch a movie at night. But there's no wi-fi, so if you need to catch up on emails do it before you arrive. There's also not much in the way of groceries in Naalehu, so best to stock up before. If you're up for a quaint place for a few nights, I recommend Connie's rainforest cottage.
