Sunset views and stargazing from the hammock, friendly geckos joining you for dinner, and fresh fallen fruit on the walkways. The adventure up the driveway and the short trek to the cottage set the tone for our rugged Big Island vacation. This was the best view on our Hawaii vacation besting even Mauna Kea and our ocean front room on Maui. Would recommend to anyone visiting the Big Island (and renting a 4WD vehicle).
