Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Lori Porter

I retired to the Big Island after almost 24 years working as a Foreign Service Officer, assigned to various Embassies and Consulates overseas. I love to travel and I enjoy meeting new people and learning about new cultures. I feel a strong connection to the ocean, I love beaches, swimming with sea turtles, snorkeling, sailing...Hawaii is the perfect place for all water sports! I volunteer at the Marine Mammal Center (Ke Kai Ola) in Kailua-Kona where I am part of the response and rescue team protecting the endangered Hawaiian Monk Seal. I am also a practicing glass artist with a small home glass studio. I enjoy an active outdoor lifestyle and feel extremely fortunate to have made Hawaii my home.
Why they chose this property
I chose this house because it offers the best of indoor-outdoor living. The large lanai nearly doubles the living space and I love the beautiful ocean views. It is also at the perfect elevation for gorgeous sunsets and for catching the trade winds. With a clear night sky, and very little surrounding ambient light, the stargazing from my property is amazing. I've known for many years that I wanted to retire to Hawaii, so finding this home and starting a new life on the Big Island has been a dream come true. I'm looking forward to sharing my little paradise with you!
What makes this property unique
The Big Island has so much to offer with many wonderful adventures waiting for you. I look forward to meeting you and am happy to answer any questions you may have to help make your visit to the Big Island an unforgettable experience. Aloha!
