My husband and I, both retired, had a very nice stay at Hawaii Sun Cottage. The property is well-maintained and clean, spacious and comfortable. It's a proper guest house with plenty of drawer and closet space, and without the owner's personal items around. The kitchen is well-equipped so that we were able to prepare meals with no trouble. The yard is nicely landscaped and very pretty. We enjoyed sitting on the lanai in the mornings and evenings, surrounded by peaceful sounds and a nice view. It is remote, which adds to the charm, but is close enough for visits to Hilo or Volcanoes National Park with only about 30 minutes or so of driving either direction. Be warned that the road to the property is pretty rough, as mentioned in the listing. A small car with low clearance might have trouble. There are more house rules than we have encountered at other properties, with the expectation that guests will help keep the house in top condition. These are posted in the listing before booking, no surprises, so just be sure to read them in advance of reserving. Communication was prompt and helpful. I especially appreciated Tiffani's suggestions, both in the check-in information and in e-mail messages. I wish we had followed her advice about grocery stores in Hilo instead of stopping at the first place we saw. After a frustrating search for groceries at a familiar big box store, we went to the store she recommended where we found everything we needed at better prices. We truly enjoyed our visit to the Big Island, and Hawaii Sun Cottage was a great place for our stay.
