I can't wait to come back and stay at this house again. Heather's cottage was everything we needed and more. The house truly is steps from a great semi-private beach and close to everything else on the north shore. We enjoyed hanging out on the deck, as well as relaxing inside and cooking a few meals. We were especially happy about the little details like the provided beach towels we were able to use! I would recommend this rental for anyone looking for a vacation in Hawaii!
