A Blissful Retreat in the Heart of Seaview - 5 minutes from the beach!

Kitsune Cottage: Your Oceanfront Oasis in the Heart of Seaview.
Welcome to Kitsune Cottage, where the beauty of the Hawaiian islands meets the comfort of home. Nestled on the Hilo side of the Big Island, our cottage offers an unforgettable retreat, with cozy charm, breathtaking ocean views, and the soothing sounds of nature. Join us for a journey through this idyllic escape and envision the magic of your stay.
A Cozy Retreat by the Sea:
Kitsune Cottage is not just a place to stay; it's an experience. As you approach our tranquil haven, the cottage's inviting exterior beckons you inside. A sense of warmth and relaxation fills the air, welcoming you to your home away from home. The cottage's wooden facade, handcrafted with care, hints at the cozy haven that lies within.
The moment you step inside, you'll feel the embrace of rustic yet modern charm. Natural light floods the living space, casting a soft glow throughout. Sunlight filters through large windows, ensuring that the ocean is never out of sight. Whether you're preparing a meal in the well-appointed kitchen, unwinding in the comfortable living area, or savoring a meal at the handcrafted wooden table, the sea is your constant companion.
Every detail at Kitsune Cottage has been thoughtfully considered to ensure your comfort. A comfortable queen-sized bed adorned with island-inspired linens awaits in the bedroom, promising restful nights. The bathroom, with a full tub, orchids and custom designed art, invites you to relax and rejuvenate. Our cottage's compact size creates an intimate and cozy atmosphere, perfect for couples seeking a romantic retreat or solo travelers in search of serenity.
Ocean Views from Every Angle:
One of the most enchanting aspects of Kitsune Cottage is its unparalleled ocean vistas. Imagine waking up to the gentle caress of sunlight on your skin and the breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean spreading out before you. As you open your eyes, the first thing you'll see is the vast expanse of blue, stretching out in all directions. The sight is simply mesmerizing.
In the kitchen, prepare your morning coffee, and take it out to the lanai. Here, you can sip your coffee while watching the waves dance on the horizon. The lanai is the perfect place to start your day, with the sound of the ocean as your soundtrack and the fresh ocean breeze as your companion.
Throughout the day, the changing light and colors of the ocean will captivate your senses. You might spot passing ships on the horizon, playful dolphins leaping through the waves, or, if you're lucky, the majestic spouts of migrating whales. Whether you're relaxing on the lanai, preparing meals in the kitchen, or unwinding in bed, the ocean is never far from view, creating a sense of connection with the natural beauty of Hawaii.
Soothing Sounds of Nature:
As night falls, you'll be serenaded by the soothing sounds of rain and the chorus of coqui frogs. The gentle pitter-patter of raindrops on the cottage's roof creates a lullaby that invites peaceful slumber. The cozy atmosphere inside, with its soft lighting and comfortable bedding, ensures you'll drift off to sleep feeling utterly content.
The coqui frogs provide a symphony of chirping that fills the night air. Their rhythmic calls are a testament to the rich biodiversity of the island. While some find their sounds enchanting, others appreciate them as a natural lullaby that enhances the feeling of being surrounded by nature.
In the darkness of the night, the ocean continues its gentle song, a reminder of the vastness and beauty that lies just beyond the cottage walls. You'll awaken in the morning refreshed and renewed, ready to embark on another day of exploration and relaxation in this tropical paradise.
Our Special Residents:
At Kitsune Cottage, you'll have the unique opportunity to share your stay with some special residents of our own. We live on the property with our three white kitsune wolves and a friendly white cat. These beautiful creatures add an extra layer of enchantment to your experience, as they roam the grounds with grace and curiosity. Guests often find solace in their presence and enjoy observing them as they go about their daily activities.
The kitsune, with their striking white coats and playful demeanor, are a captivating sight. They embody the spirit of the island and its natural beauty. As you relax on the lanai or explore the cottage's surroundings, you may catch glimpses of these majestic creatures as they move gracefully through the landscape.
Our white cat, a gentle and sociable companion, often visits our guests and brings a sense of comfort to your stay. Whether you're sipping coffee on the lanai or simply taking in the ocean views, you may find our feline friend keeping you company.
Your Hawaiian Escape Awaits:
A stay at Kitsune Cottage is an opportunity to escape the demands of everyday life and immerse yourself in the enchantment of Hawaii's Hilo side. Whether you're seeking a romantic getaway, a solo retreat, or simply a tranquil place to unwind, Kitsune Cottage offers an unforgettable experience.
Here, you'll find the perfect balance of cozy comfort, breathtaking ocean views, and the soothing sounds of nature. As you sip your morning coffee on the lanai, as you curl up with a good book in the living area, as you drift off to sleep to the chorus of coqui frogs and the distant ocean, you'll know that you've discovered a truly special place.

Great coastal views
We had a great stay. Pictures represent the property well. The place is about 20 minutes from Pahoa city-center (if that’s helpful). Met Sean who shared some insights about the area and local cuisine. Ashley was great at communicating and checking in with us via VRBO messages. Overall we had a really nice time in the area and were grateful to have a peaceful place to stay as we explored this side of the Island.

Area was very good & property is in very good shape. Also provided best facilities. There only needs to do some maintenance outside like grass cutting and clean the walkway path. Other than that it’s best to stay there during vacation time
