These were the 1st 3 nights that we spent on the Hilo side. We met Sharon and Amy upon arrival. Immediately we knew that Sharon ( the owner) is a warm and friendly person. Throughout the time we spent there…. every contact was an absolute pleasure.
The cottage is set as a separate building but only 10 feet from the main house and didn’t feel private. It is a single room with a walled toilet and shower. We expected more of a kitchen and food prep area than what is there. The very small refrigerator does neither make ice nor keep it frozen and it was necessary to ask for ice from the main house daily. If you want to prepare some of your own meals, the cottage is not supportive of that. Washing dishes and cooking items must be done in the bathroom sink without counterspace while standing on the wet shower floor. I think that our biggest issue was that the whole property wasn’t very well maintained and there was much junk laying around that should have found a trash bin long ago.
