The tropical beauty of Harry's cottage was breathtaking. My husband and I arrived at the end of a rainstorm and we thought we had gone to heaven. It was the perfect place to get away after a year of "working at home". When Harry stopped by to make sure we had everything we needed, we discovered what a cool guy he was! He gave us great suggestions which lead to some real adventures. Although the mango hut was an awesome little retreat, we really did not have the occasion to use it because the cottage was so comfortable and scenic. Besides a well-equipped kitchen, there were umbrellas that we should have taken with us to Volcano National Park. We learned the hard way! Some people commented about mosquitos, however, we did not notice any. We were amused by the many harmless geckos and chickens wandering all over the island. There are beaches ranging from nearby to much farther, but our favorite was the hike to Honomalino Bay. There are plenty of things to do within a 30-minute drive, such as snorkeling, kayaking, coffee tours, and tastings, but it was always such a pleasure to return to the lovely cottage at the end of the day for the sunsets. At dusk, the coqui frogs and all their friends begin singing. It is really a treat, even if quite loud. (They do subside after midnight) If you want to feel like you have escaped to another world, the "Romantic Cottage is the place for you.
