Detached Garden Cottage

The Detached Garden Cottage is located on our beachfront estate at Chuns Reef. Estate info
The garden pond cottage began it's existence as the smoke house for the Laniakea train station. Pineapple and sugarcane workers set the train station alight while cooking their BBQ lunch, around the turn of the century. They decided that it was better to make fire in a separate structure! Today this is a detached cottage next to the rock wall and highway. It still has the original BBQ in the closet.

The cottage has an ocean view and is across the driveway from the white sand beach. It was remodeled in May of 2006 and is very clean and well maintained.

The cottage has a small bedroom and kitchen, and a private bathroom with bathtub. Bedroom and kitchen are attached; the private bathroom is an eight foot walk down a covered pathway. The unit has fan and air conditioner. Two sets of sliding glass doors and main door allow cross ventilation by trade winds.

The cottage has a bench and table in the living/ kitchen room. It also has a private patio covered with a fish pond/ waterfall and a small dining table and two chairs.
In addition there is a private covered small patio on the beach for the studio.

The bathroom walkway has security and motion detectors lights on the walk all the way to and from the cottage. The walkway has indirect lighting on from 6 to 10PM. In 30 years we have not had a problem. And we have even had handicapped. We do provide a bathrobe.

The bedroom has a queen bed and large TV. The kitchen has a microwave, toaster oven, blender, coffeemaker, small hotel refrigerator etc. The private bathroom has a shower and bath.

Outside, there is an exercise area, gated access to the beach and two private patios (lanais).

The first patio is on the mountain side of the property, and has a fish pond and small waterfall. The area has lots of plants, and is nestled behind the rock wall. There is a small dining table here, and it's a beautiful place for lunch in the shade. You can hear the road from this area, though.

The second patio area is on the east side of the property, right next to the beach. It's great for a romantic dinner or an oceanfront breakfast. Although, if the winter waves are high, you might get salt spray in your coffee!
