This is such a paradise to stay at - HIGHLY recommended!!! The cottage is surrounded by such beautiful and lush plants that we did not even want to visit the botanical garden on the island given we lived in one already! Every morning, we enjoyed very much the outdoor shower and coffee at the outdoor kitchen/dinning area, and we felt so refreshed and relaxed. The location is also central to everything you want to do on the big island. Barbara and Michael are so amazing and wonderful, and they've become friends to us. They were so helpful with giving us recommendations for places to eat and visit, invited us to their dinner, lent us their boogie boards, and made our stay so comfortable in every possible way. Absolutely 100/100!
