The bali cottage was indeed beautiful and quirky! Karen met with us on the first day and gave us a brief tour of the surrounding area and park, along with recommendations on food and activities (Annie's Burgers and Mamalahoa Hot Tubs were spot-on). There was definitely an outdoor living/glamping component to this cottage, and definitely expect bugs, mosquitoes and other creatures like geckos to pay a visit. We did enjoy our stay and exploring the Kealakekua Bay area. This cottage proved to be a great home base for our first visit to the Big Island.
