Thank you for reading about our home & we look forward to your stay! We share the islands secret places & gems with you & supply personalized itineraries!
Your vacation get-a-way will take place on a
landscape of lush gardens that is beautiful & fenced - 1.5 acres. Pick avocado, lilikoi passion fruit, cocoa pods, & more when in season! The forest is tranquil & relaxing as you gather on an outside & connected screened-in lanai (porch) which is also one of the kitchen areas! Guests love the soft lighting, quaint Hawaiian decor, & home-feeling!
We are located on the east side of the Big Island which is often called the Eastern - Hilo Side & known for lush jungles, Rainbow & Akaka Waterfalls, Maku'u Farmer's Market, Volcano National Park (45 minutes away), Bio-Reserve Botanical Garden, & 4 miles of beaches near Hilo Bay! Richardson Beach in Hilo is a popular turtle sighting beach and Carl Smith nearby including tidal pools & lagoons for pristine snorkeling!
We are 45 minutes from Volcano National Park with lava flowing now! & only 4 miles from Pahoa, HI which has many restaurants, rustic storefronts, and a magical presence!
Some say the east/Hilo side is the rainy side compared to the west/Kona side, but after living here for 3 years, there truly is sunshine everyday!
You will end up driving to the east side if you are staying in Kona, planning some side with us is a great mix of east and west. Plenty of sun to view all highlights of the east side! The tranquil rains at night & the coqui frogs will sing you to sleep!
We live 4 miles from Pahoa Village in a rural jungle setting that is super private & tranquil. The gardens on property are beautiful & the new screened in kitchen/lanai is amazing for nightly gatherings with soft lighting & great seating!
When proceeding down the long treed driveway with multiple palms & flowers lining the way, you will feel like you are in a Jurassic Park movie! The maturity of the coconut palms, lip-stick palms,
Ohia-Lehua Trees, & multiple others are astounding and thick!
Nature is blooming everywhere & many guests love walking the driveway, property and paths to explore all the fruit trees!. Fruit that grows on property includes; avocados, passion fruit, limes, oranges, lemons, coconut and cacao. Depending on the season some or all may be in season for picking and eating - all included in your stay! Ever use an Avocado picker? Its fun!
