My husband and I loved our stay at Carrie's cottage! Our hosts were there to welcome us and offered us farm-fresh eggs and just-picked citrus fruits. The cottage was very clean and private, even if it's located behind the hosts' home on a residential property. Close proximity to the hosts is actually useful if you have questions, and they checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. The cottage is about a 15-minute drive away from restaurants or the town of Kailua-Kona, so you need a car, but we liked how quiet it was. It was great to wake up in the morning and have breakfast outside on the lanai, surrounded by chickens, beautiful trees and sounds of nature. Our hosts provided us with helpful recommendations to their favourite beach and restaurants, which were all excellent. We would definitely recommend staying here and hope we get to go back one day!
