Located just 10 minutes and about 100 years away from the hustle and bustle of Alii Blvd and Krazy Kona, the Aolani Coffee Cottage is a restful retreat with stunning ocean views and 5-Star* sunsets from the hot tub, a handsomely-appointed kitchen, and a comfortably furnished and decorated interior scheme. The kitchen is well-provisioned with most all the basic and not-so-basic supplies: olive oil, vinagers, condiments, spices, fresh whole coffee beans and a good selection of coffee-brewing equipment, ample towels, dishes, utensils, pots, pans, and cookware. While the cottage doesn't have A/C and late afternoon sun can poke its delicate fingers into the furthest corners of the house, the remote-controlled draw-down awnings and ceiling fans keep the heat at bay. (Besides that, you're in Hawaii, not Minnesota, and isn't that the point?) Picturesque Holualoa-town is a comfortable 2 1/2 mile stroll from the cottage; plan to have breakfast at the Holualoa Cafe and be back to the cottage in time to pack a light lunch and head down to nearby La'aloa (Mgic Sands) Beach, or, if you're in the mood for turtles and snorkeling, drive another couple of minutes to Kahalu'u Beach Park. Shopping, groceries, dining, and entertainment are all within 15 minute's drive -- have the best of everything: Old Hawaii at home, and bustling modern Kona at your fingertips. *Our Five-Star Sunsets featured planets Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn and the crescent moon settling into the rosy embrace of a stunning sunset -- every night, Oct. 31 - Nov 4 2019. Only one thing: Chefs, bring a sharp knife of your own. You know that already.
