Our stay at the Iolani Cottage completely exceeded our expectations. The cottage is located inside a big property with a main house and a workshop. The architecture is stunning, with accent details such as the volcanic rock facade and the outdoor shower. The outdoor washer and dryer with the hanging rope on the other side of the house was really convenient when we got back from the beach. The house is surrounded by spectacular trees. The fully equipped kitchen with state of the art appliances really contributed to making our stay such a pleasant one. And if you are a coffee lover too, you can even get three different options for your coffee: from real espresso machine, to filter coffee machine and french press!
Our boys really enjoyed playing in the tennis court and running around the backyard. It is very quiet and tranquil. We especially enjoyed early breakfasts and some lunches outside in the dinning table immersed in the beauty of Nature. Afternoon naps or reading in the outdoor daybed were indeed a bliss.
The property is situated in a very nice area of Haiku, 5 minutes away from Paia and its downtown, with plenty of options for dining, grocery shopping or just going for a stroll. We especially loved breakfast at Better Things and their smoothies and açai bowls, the crepes from Café des Amis and their artisanal ice creams (amazing!) next door. We had such a splendid experience that we hope to go back soon! Thank you for your hospitality!!
