We loved Anzu's Artist's Cottage and the beautiful property. We enjoyed the big covered deck with morning sun and afternoon shade. We were fortunate enough to not have rain, though even if we had, it's a large enough covered deck to enjoy being out. The special touch of the amazing guava smoothie on the first morning was such a treat! It's nice to know that you can order special breakfast options as well.
Anzu and Bill are very responsive and were very helpful with directions (don't trust Google or Apple Maps!) and tips for the area. What is striking about the property is all the flowers and exotic plants and birds. We were looking for a peaceful retreat, and we found it! We also loved being out of the Hilo traffic (yes Hilo has a rush hour!). We found a nice grocery and health food store within a few miles on Volcano Road, and the Market at Paloa was great on Sunday. We had everything we needed.
To be aware of, the stairs to the loft sleeping area are pretty steep, and you'll want to use the flashlight provided. Very comfortable accommodations. Thank you, Anzu and Bill!
