Words cannot describe how wonderful staying in the cottage was. Being right on the water, seeing whales right off of the lanai, and being able to walk to Honoli’i in the mornings to watch the surfers added a complete relaxed and tropical atmosphere that you would get at a resort, but with the privacy of your own home. Hearing the waves at night was a special treat. The place was clean and fresh, bed comfortable, and the kitchenette wonderful for making breakfasts off of our Hilo Farmer’s Market purchases. Thanks so much for the wonderful stay - we will be sure to recommend to all and hope to see you again!
