This cottage is gorgeous, modern and built with love. We loved the outdoor shower, the beautiful landscaping that provided privacy, and that everything was clean and new, including a fresh sponge in the kitchen. There were a lot of thoughtful details: a blossom in the kitchen and the bathroom, nice sharp knives in the kitchen, and a small selection of Hawaii themed books on the headboard. Even though Chewy was out of the country, all the communication was quick and clear. As for location, there are many beaches, tide pools and things to do along the Red Road and Pahoa is a short drive away where you can get groceries, gas and a delicious meal.
