Good to know

Tiny Aloha is a fully functional, one-of-a-kind tiny rental — but it may not be for everyone! At just 240 square feet, this cozy space offers a unique living experience designed for guests who enjoy simplicity, the outdoors, and a little adventure. Please read the details below carefully before booking. The photos are also an important part of understanding the layout and scale of the space. Occupancy & Age Requirement Maximum occupancy: 2 guests At least one guest must be 25 years of age or older The Layout Tiny Aloha has two levels, with the kitchen and living area downstairs and the bedroom loft upstairs. The downstairs living area has 7-foot ceilings and includes a small loveseat and a pub-style table with stools — perfect for relaxing or enjoying a meal indoors when the weather isn't cooperating. The stairs are full-sized but narrow and somewhat steeper than standard stairs. There are also some low-clearance areas. Guests over approximately 6'2" may need to duck while going up the stairs and while moving around the upstairs loft. The loft has full standing headroom primarily in the center. The upstairs bedroom features a full-size queen bed and a small sitting area with a natural cedar shelf. Bathroom & Shower One of Tiny Aloha's most unique features is the bathroom setup. The toilet is semi-private. It has a door, but it is located beneath the stairwell, which is not completely enclosed. There is no indoor shower. Instead, you'll have your own private outdoor shower with hot and cold water, tucked beneath the stairs and enclosed with privacy louvers. If an indoor shower is important to you, Tiny Aloha may not be the right fit. Kitchen The kitchen is fully functional and equipped for simple meals, although there is no traditional stove or oven. Instead, you'll have: Gas grill Microwave Dual hot plate Toaster Toaster oven Half-size refrigerator with freezer Small coffee maker Blender Kitchen utensils and basic cooking supplies The refrigerator is approximately half the size of a standard home refrigerator — roughly twice the size of a typical college dorm refrigerator. The kitchen also features a full-size farmhouse sink with a modern faucet, plenty of counter space and cabinetry, and a beautiful live-edge cedar upper shelf. There are hooks throughout the space for conveniently hanging towels, clothing, and other items. Sleeping & Climate When the weather is comfortable, we encourage you to open the windows and enjoy the natural ocean breeze. For hot or humid weather, a mini-split air conditioner is located upstairs. All windows have room-darkening blinds, and the front door has a privacy pull-down blind. Outdoor Living The outdoor space is really where Tiny Aloha shines. The property features a multi-level deck surrounded by tropical foliage, with plenty of room to relax, dine, or simply enjoy the surroundings. You'll find: Lounge chairs on the deck Outdoor dining table and chairs on the upper deck Private outdoor hot/cold shower Multiple areas for relaxing and enjoying the tropical setting Tiny Aloha is small, but the outdoor living space gives you room to spread out and enjoy the beauty around you. If you’re comfortable with tiny-home living, love the outdoors, and don't mind a few unconventional features, Tiny Aloha offers a truly unique experience. BOOKING WITH A GROUP??
