It is maybe an amazing place itself to host visitors on the Big Island, but Earl and Linda are definitley the best hosts in Kona. The cottage is very close to the best snorkeling place on the island: two steps. Earl showed us around the first day, so we also got to know all the secret spots nearby. You definitely need a car, though. You can reach all other stunning sights of the Island by daytrips and Kona downtown is only 30 minutes away. It's the most beautiful place we have ever stayed!
