	I strive to treat my guests as I myself would hope to be treated while out in the world traveling. This is Your vacation and Your special time. As your host at the cottage it is my job to make you comfortable at home and to make sure your needs are met while for the most part remaining invisible unless requested. I will mention that there are NO "Additional Surcharges or Cleaning Fees". This practice has become somewhat of a norm these days. (but not here) Intimate, eclectic, romantic and whimsical Hawaii Kilauea Volcano upcountry Mauna Loa rainforest getaway cottage.
