Mele’s guest cottage was absolutely perfect for us. It provided exactly what we needed - a place to sleep, shower, and cook simple meals. It was just far enough away from the crowds to have some peace and quiet yet still close enough to beaches and restaurants for ease of access. It was very clean and well kept and Mele was excellent at communicating and making sure we had everything we needed. She also provided us with some great recommendations on things to do nearby. Overall, our expectations were exceeded and we would love to stay here again if/when we found ourselves in Kona again.
