I wish I could give this cottage a higher rating because Ira, the owner, is such a delightful person. But the cottage is so small that it was not a pleasant place to stay, in my subjective opinion. The bed is pushed sideways into an alcove, so one person has to climb over the other to get out during the... More

We stayed here three nights with our one-year-old son and loved everything about it. It definitely is small and slightly rustic, but we are a cozy small family (our son slept on a futon on the floor) who enjoy cozy small spaces. Artistic design touches everywhere in and around the cottage and gardens. It's unassuming and definitely not a luxury... More

if you like cozy little spaces, this is for you. if you like wide open huge rooms, this is not for you. We loved it. Super cute, unprepossessing. The hot tube was heavenly. also features a cute little kitchenette. Drawbacks: shower pressure is low (but sufficient if you have chin length hair), quite small, only one chair to relax in.... More

We stayed here for one night while visiting Volcanoes National Park. The cottage is cute but dated. While the bathroom has been recently added, the water pressure for the shower is disappointing. Similarly the hot tub is on its last legs. On the plus side, this cottage is very private and pleasant. You have a little kitchen, a nice heater... More

We were delighted with this charming and comfortable cottage surrounded by jungle flora and a unique garden decorated with lovely art collected by or created by the owner, Ira Ono who proved to be...

My husband and I stayed recently at Ira's amazing Artist Cottage for three nights. I cannot put into words what a wonderful, relaxing, experience we had. When we arrived were greeted with such enthusiam and warmth, you would think we were staying with family. We were shown to the cottage and had a mini tour of where to find all... More

My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights while we toured Volcano National Park. We loved our little cottage! It is very convenient to the park and the grounds are beautiful. I loved all of the little touches that were throughout the cottage. The only thing I would add would be some measuring cups in the kitchen. The bathroom... More

The setting is simply awesome. The cottage is really nice, clean and so charming and cozy. It was pooring and cold when we were there (it had snowed a little higher up the mountains)...but is just didn't matter. We had a quick visit to the vocano park and enjoyed so much the cottage which has a wonderful bath. All the... More

We spent three nights there and took in the sights and fun of the Volcano area in July last year and are returning again this year to rest, relax and enjoy this most special of... More
