If you are wondering whether or not you should book this place, it's a no-brainer: DO IT. The cottage is very pretty and very cozy, everything was impeccably clean at our arrival and Tiki (the property manager) is one of the nicest people you'll meet during your trip. Lava flow viewing is right around the corner, and most points of interest on the eastern part of Big Island are not too far away. The outside shower is a nice touch, especially considering the amount of stars visible at night :)
