We loved this cottage -- perfect location on the Pipeline to watch surfers do their thing! The deck is ideal and hard to leave...but great swimming is close by (Waimea Bay) and in summer there's good snorkeling at Shark's Cove (5 min on bike, or walk). Photos on site are really accurate -- but better in person. Listening to the surf is perfect for sleeping..no Ambien required. Clean, stocked w/everything you need, great outdoor shower with solar-heated water, fun surfing decor...Mele is a great host too -- check out the organic farm across the street. Hope to be back soon, miss it already.
