About this property
Eco friendly, Tropical paradise,spacious farm stay, conveniently located in Hilo
Experience a tropical oasis in a small family farm in a suburban part of Hilo. We are conveniently located being 10 mins away from Downtown Hilo. Experience life on a farm as you tour our permaculture food forest consisting of a variety of tropical fruit trees, medicinal plants, and our vegetable garden. As a family farm, we strive to be as self sufficient as we can by growing our own food and medicine organically while leveraging natural resources around us where possible.
You will be renting the entire upstairs 2 bedroom unit (over 1,200 square feet of living space) of our home with separate entrance complete with a kitchen, bathroom, a large screened in lanai (porch) and a front porch to watch the beautiful sunrise on a clear morning. Our kitchen comes fully equipped with a coffee maker, full cooking range with oven, pots and pans, pantry basics (cooking oil, salt and pepper) should you choose to prepare some meals during your stay.
Bathroom is stocked with shampoo, conditioner, body wash & a fresh set of towels. Beach towels will also be provided for your convenience.
Our space does not have a television intentionally so you can enjoy family time and the abundance of life on the farm. Connect conveniently to our high speed cable Wifi to stream movies, check emails and to stay connected during your stay here. We are blessed with trade wind weather for most of the year and AC is not common here in this part of the island. Fans are provided in both bedrooms as well as a ceiling fan in the screened porch. On a clear evening, enjoy stargazing like you’ve never experienced before. Experience a moonlit night away from any light pollution and see the major constellations without any help from telescopes !
During your stay on our property, feel free to take nature walks around our four acre property, lounge under one of our bamboo forest to enjoy nature, pet and feed our goats and enjoy a lower pace lifestyle living on our farm. We will be more than happy to provide you with a tour of our permaculture food forest during your stay.
We are a 100% smoke-free farm. Smoking is not permitted anywhere on the property.
Guests will have access to the entire upstairs two bedroom unit complete with a living room, two bedroom, kitchen, screened in lanai and front porch.
This is an owner occupied property and the property owner pays all applicable taxes in the state of Hawaii. Owners live downstairs and are available to assist at check in and handle any of your needs during your stay.
Given that we are located in the tropics, please bring sunscreen and bug spray to make your stay here in Hawaii more pleasant.
Hawaii County adopted the mission to reduce our county’s ecological footprint in 2007, please bring recyclable shopping bags that can be used when shopping for souvenirs or groceries.
Since we live downstairs and work on the property, you will often times see us working outside on improvements to our farm. We have an outdoor kitchen where we prepare our meals, visible from the upstairs lanai and the master bedroom with the queen sized bed.
