I cannot say enough positive things about our magical stay at Cristina and Mark’s Peacock Cottage. They are the most warm, welcoming people, and their property is all conceived with care and love. It’s a very, very special place.
If you’re looking for a tiny house experience in a truly unique setting, this is it! We came with our 7.5 year old daughter, who loved collecting fruit and sticks and leaves and playing on the front porch. The house is conveniently located a few minutes from a big supermarket, and amazing beaches to view the massive waves. There’s also a great horse ranch to do horseback riding down the road (Happy Trails.)
Waimea Valley was a beautiful half day trip, as was Turtle Bay for swimming. Haleiwa was such a lovely town nearby we wanted to spend more time in.
As for the Peacock Cottage, it’s exactly as described. Everything is small, but you have everything you need to do moderate cooking. I was pleasantly surprised by the warm shower with great water pressure. We woke up to a cacophony of birds, including roosters who seem confused as to what time daybreak is, and a cheeky woodpecker.
Cristina and Mark are the most wonderful people - you couldn’t find better hosts. We’ll always remember our stay fondly, and we hope to return one day.
