After some very stressful events, I searched the internet for a special place where my husband and I could truly relax and unwind. The Plumaria Cottage, location, and our host, Sandy, exceeded our expectations! The two best snorkeling spots in Hawaii are just minutes away. The cottage is well equipped with elite appliances, comfortable bed, and covered patio with a backyard. The bathroom is a little small, but totally workable. The shower is lovely. At night you can hear frogs and a beautiful symphony of birds greets you every morning. We toured Big Island Bees (just down the road) and sampled organic honey. Delicious and quite interesting! The Kona Coffee Coop (also close) was another interesting stop. Bottom line, if this cottage is available for the time period you want, BOOK IT! You won't be sorry!
