Kitsune Cottage is the perfect spot to be if you're exploring the south east of the island (the best part of the island!) It is close to many great attraction ranging from volcano, black sand beach, snorkeling tidepool to a night market. Ashley, Sean and Nico are great hosts! They're super communicative and helpful. While they allowed us to have our private time, they were also ready to chat with us and give us suggestions on things to do on the island.
I would suggest to try out their vegan ice cream. They're amazing!!! Ashley and Sean have a stand in the Wednesday night market. And you're also able to get it at the stand by the lava flow biking route entrance. It would be a great reward for yourself after the biking and hike to the lava.
We would definitely stay at Kitsune Cottage again in the future if we make it back to the Big Island!
