We were looking for a place to get away from it all on The Big Island, and Buck's place was absolutely perfect. You can tell how much thought and care Buck puts into his rentals: from the placement of rooms and windows to maximize privacy, to providing everything you might need to cook in the lovely outdoor kitchenette, to the hand-drawn map he provides of the area. When I see an Airbnb that looks as perfect as Buck's place does in photos, I worry it won't live up to expectations, but the Mariner Cottage absolutely did! Everything was spotlessly clean and Buck is as awesome as all of the previous reviewers have said. Can't wait to come back!
