This is a cozy, open air cabin in a beautiful part of the Big Island. It is ideal if you want to go "off-grid" and enjoy the sounds of nature and the company you keep. Great proximity to lava flow and snorkeling, close to Hilo and Volcanoes National Park. One note - there is basically zero cell phone reception (Verizon) and internet is via Satellite and works about 50% of the time at a slow pace. Cell reception is good once you head towards town, but you won't have service in the cottage. No Air Conditioning, but the breeze with the windows open made it totally pleasant for our stay (late-December). As many have mentioned, the kitchen sink is in the bathroom and the kitchen is tiny - more like an RV-Style kitchen setup. Hot water is on-demand and prompt, cool lizards all around, views of the ocean and the sunrise are stunning! If you like Glamping - this is the place to be!
