My girlfriend and I had a great time in the oceanfront cottage. The cottage had everything we needed including a lovely porch for our coffee and breakfast with an ocean view. Kaimu Country Store is very close for eggs and other groceries if you decide to cook. The best part is the proximity to Kahena Beach (across the street) and the Lava Viewing area, two of my favorite parts of the Big Island so far. We did the hike to see lava up close, definitely worth it.
