Karen and Ron were amazing hosts. They were always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed for our stay, but were also very courteous and respectful of our privacy. They also had great recommendations on things to do, see and eat. The Bali Cottage offered exactly what we were looking for: an un-plugged, laid back, yet special Big Island experience. The fact that you are steps from great snorkeling and the ocean just makes it that much better. We'll definitely be staying here next time we make it out to Hawaii.
